What if I don't want to be a hero, save your damn selves!! Has anyone ever asked a hero if they even like saving people? What if Wolverine just wanted to binge-watch Stranger Things, and not be the stranger thing? Imagine being the fastest man alive, only to arrive seconds too late to save a life. What if being a hero wasn't in their five-year plan? Who opts into risking their life and the lives of the people who mean the most to them- for the people who mean the least? Why do we demand those who are faster, stronger, or have unique abilities to bear the burden of life and death? Who among us, would willingly risk their own life simply because they possess the power to do so? What if heroes just wanted to live their lives, the way they planned or unplanned it. What the Author hopes? If only for one second or even just a small inkling. I somehow convinced you that the things I write about could exist. Then I accomplished my goal as a dope writer. ✍🏽 Blood Roots - "Just be glad I choose forgiveness.

MC: Here's a How Not to Survive a Hostage Situation: Don't be me. Rule#1 Don't meet a guy fighting against cutlery. Rule#2 Don't get mistaken for someone with talent when you've absolutely none. Rule#3 Don't let a war, a high-stakes revenge plot, and one human weapon disguised as a person wreck your already failing life. (Oh, and don't expect me to tell you my name. You'll have to earn that.) But if you do? Congrats. You're now in my position-trapped, bleeding, and somehow still expected to be the sane one. Trowa: You're not the sane one. MC: Okay, first of all-rude. Second of all, enter Trowa. Trowa: Don't enter me into this. MC: Sigh. He's a questionable ally who moves people like chess pieces. Trowa: Incorrect. I don't play chess with lives. I just... redecorate the board when necessary. MC: Yeah. That's so much better. He plans. I panic. Together, we're one bad decision away from death. Trowa: Two. I have contingencies. MC: Oh, great. So we die second. Fantastic. And if we survive this, I'm going to need therapy. Trowa: You need therapy even if we don't. ################################## She was supposed to be a bystander. Now, she's bleeding in the middle of a war she doesn't understand. A single step-wrong place, wrong time-and now she's entangled in a brutal game of shifting alliances, weaponized secrets, and people who treat lives like collateral. She wanted quiet. Instead, she's dodging kidnappers, advanced tech, and a human weapon in the shape of a too-strategic ally. The worst part? She is not important-just unlucky. And in this kind of game, even those important don't survive long. ################################## For fans of sarcastic narrators, bad decisions, and humor that's basically Percy Jackson... if he grew up, got more cynical, bled more, and forgot how to run away. ##################################

What would you do if you found out nothing in your life is as it seems? Grace never expected to be attacked after a night out, let alone wake up in a stranger's house the morning after. But that's only the beginning. When she discovers her family has been receiving threatening letters from an anonymous writer, Grace realizes the safety her wealthy life once provided is completely gone. As more secrets begin to surface, she starts questioning everything and everyone she thought she knew, deciding to take matters into her own hands. A decision made to save her father, her only family. A decision that will bring her closer to danger, but one she won't walk away from. Even if it means risking her life. The stakes have never been higher: is Grace ready to face what's coming?
