Eight years after the war ended, the people in the Kingdom of Raldaiz live in peace, under the reign of their righteous King, safe from the magical powers of their once fellow Kordaiz tribe, which later became their worst enemy.

When his fallen comrade's pregnant wife is marked for death, Ibris Mansa, a soldier turned syndicate boss, steps in to protect her. But the child she carries is being hunted for its rare genetic potential. Ibris must uncover the truth before the child is taken and powerful of Atlantis silences them both. *** This story unfolds on the ancient continent of Atlantis, the one of myth and legend. Long before its fall, the civilization is already decaying from within. Nobles flourish, animal human halfbreeds are cast aside as a slave race, and unchecked technology, paired with an A.I. religion, pushes society toward collapse. At the center of it all stands Ibris, a bull halfbreed. Tall, broad-shouldered, and horned, he was engineered to serve Atlantis's elite as a symbol of their religion but chose rebellion instead. Brutal in battle and reckless in his vices, he carries his burdens with raw strength as danger, drink, and a long list of fleeting lovers trail close behind. Now Ibris fights for all genetically engineered halfbreeds, leading a resistance against those who would keep them enslaved as tools of the powerful, while navigating the loss of his own wife and child. "The Halfbreeds of Atlantis" is a science fantasy novel set in The Third World Universe, created by Sunny Ghauri. It is a prequel to dystopian romance novel "The Sky Gods of Atlantis."

Two people fall in love, someone dies, and a child survives who will one day shape English literature. *** In Tudor London, a forbidden love ends in tragedy, but it also brings into the world John Florio, future author of Queen Anna's World of Words and one of the greatest translators of the Renaissance. His father, Michel' Angelo, moves among the most powerful noblemen and women of the era. Yet as passion turns perilous and secrets take root, the black hellebore blooms as a warning that love can be as dangerous as poison. **Edits ongoing as part of the "It's Raining, Let's Kiss" short story anthology.

NB; This is an ungoing work in progress. In no way are the identities of the Sleep Token bandmembers given away in this fanfiction. Names, situations and places are completely made up by me. I understand the fact that the Sleep Token members are real human beings, so their personalities in this story are what I liked them to be rather than how they might be in real life, since I do not know them at all. Stay respectful!

This is not a story about what happens. It's about what almost does. At an Ivy League medical school, Isabelle Laurent is known as the Ice Queen-brilliant, distant, untouchable. No one gets close. No one stays. Alexander Whitmore was never supposed to be different. Charming, privileged, and infamous for never staying longer than a few weeks, he understands desire. What he doesn't understand, until Isabelle, is restraint. She believes he doesn't want her. He knows wanting her openly would destroy everything. So they choose the most dangerous thing instead: friendship. "The most dangerous thing about Alexander Whitmore was not his reputation, nor his charm, nor the power he would one day inherit. It was the fact that he never asked for anything from me, and somehow, without realizing it, I had begun to give him everything that mattered." Slow burn • Dual POV • Consent • Emotional intimacy

Everyone except Matteo Reyes, the chaotic night shift cleaner who steals hospital sunflowers, breaks rules constantly, and refuses to treat her like she's already gone. What begins as irritation slowly becomes something deeper inside the oncology ward, where laughter feels rebellious, love becomes complicated, and strangers leave permanent marks on one another's lives.
