Ever thought surviving first period-and facing her best friend's boyfriend, whom she recently kissed-would be the hardest part of her day. She was wrong. The world is ending. Literally. Between dodging awkward hallway interactions with her best friend's boyfriend and dodging the apocalypse, Ever discovers she may be the one person capable of saving mankind. No pressure, right? But just when she's barely wrapping her head around her destiny, a mysterious (and annoyingly handsome) stranger shows up. He drives her crazy, yet somehow feels...familiar. And he just might hold the key to unlocking Ever's forgotten past and to stopping the strange, earth-shattering events unraveling the future. As secrets unfold and loyalties are tested, Ever has to make a choice: walk away from the chaos and pretend the world isn't ending or embrace her destiny and risk everything to save it. After all, being a teenager is hard. Being the savior of humanity? That's a whole new level. *This is book one in a series

Charlotte's Augment Capacity shouldn't exist. She has no idea what it means. The masked stranger who died at her feet may have been the only one who did. Before she can find answers, Charlotte is transferred to an elite academy run by PRODIGI, a megacorporation whose reach spans every domed city on the planet. She plans to keep her head down, but in the highest spire, her face is already on the director's screen. And PRODIGI isn't the only one watching. Cybernetic outlaws known as jackers are closing in, with reasons of their own. ​Whatever links Charlotte's impossible Augment capacity to the Great Impact - the century-old catastrophe that forced humanity into these domes - the factions hunting her don't want her dead. They want her. ​In a world where a genetic lottery determines who can wield advanced Augments, the deadliest secret isn't buried in the past. It's written in her DNA.

The story that is told, is a story that is close to my heart. As I am telling this story during my quarantined times, may it be odd but it is a story about Karim Jawad, or else, different names they prefer in other dimensions. He has a jaded phase ahead on which, he need a lot of work for. He might get all the riches that he had but what he doesn't have, would be told further in the narrative. Sometimes, the music of the mix of joy and sadness do come with the guilt a person could have. There are some joy and love towards this story but it does make us walk through alternatives.

My eyes were literally glowing, there was no mistaking it. It was not a reflection of light, or any of the other excuses I had used or others had assumed. They were glowing a light sapphire blue color. It was not a bright glow, but it was definitely a glow. Glowing eyes were not normal. Okay, at this point I had to admit it, I was no longer normal. What was I then? For that, I had no answer [[Word count: 495,000]] Copyright August 2016. All Rights Reserved. Readers may not copy, alter, or steal this story.

He thought he was just chasing a signal. He didn't know it was chasing him back. Something is waking in the dark-buried beneath ruined systems, flickering across corrupted memory logs, hidden in the static between thoughts. When Jem intercepts a strange transmission, he's pulled into a collapsing network of abandoned tech, fractured identities, and echoes that feel too personal to be coincidence. Alone and hunted, he descends into the remnants of a world that was never meant to be found. The deeper he goes, the more reality begins to twist-architecture that loops on itself, doors that open into memories he doesn't remember living, and voices that shouldn't be speaking. Whatever's waiting at the end isn't broken. It's waiting for him to remember. ARCHIVE-34 is a slow-burn, atmospheric journey through a ruined future-where memory is unstable, and the past is never truly gone.
