'You call this fate' has won: 1st place in BLUE ROSE AWARDS 2017 (Action) 1st place in THE PURPLE APPLE AWARDS 2017 (General fiction) The One and Only Award in the RARITY AWARDS (General fiction) 3rd place in THE PUPPET AWARDS 2017 (that was when my genre was mystery/thriller. I believe general fiction fits my story better) Zara Mahal, a girl adrift from her motherland, a virtual exile amongst strangers, was no dreamer. She saw the ugliness in the world with clear eyes, heard it's screams and cries with open ears. She knew, and yet she dared to imagine a new life...but when is it that the past leaves you behind? When is it that the hungry demons from yesterday bid you adieu with a fare-thee-well? It doesn't happen, not today, not here, and most certainly not with her. She's being chased, by the demons within and the demons without...and she sees no way through. Yet...her snarky, rude, more-amicable-dead-than-alive boss seems to know something. Something he won't tell her about. Something that threatens to rock her world and throw her to the ground till her bones break and her head splits. No, I tell you...Zara Mahal knows the tears behind a happy life. But when her friend gets killed, and she's thrown into a whirlpool of shadowed faces and pulsing darkness, only Alexander Rodwell seems to know how to pull her out. The problem? He's the one pushing her in. P.S. the amazing cover is made by @mebekamil... go ahead and check out the rest of her works!

Avika, a fifteen year old, runs away at the night. No, not because of her family, or was wronged or blah blah blah. . . She ran because she wanted to attend the Night Fair. The catch? People who had visited it before her said it was just an amazing experience, but never shared the details. No person who ever visited The Night Fair has ever shared a small detail about it. But if its so risky why would Avika want to visit it? The night fair is held once in every five years. The plan is simple, sneak out, visit it, get the item, come back. Getting involved in centuries old feud, bloodthirsty ghost and time ticking bomb fairies wasn't her plan. So will she adapt to the new plan or end up being a sacrifice to the Gods?

Sick of cliché Wattpad books? Then this isn't the book for you. We take every single over-used plot, character and trope on Wattpad - from player-meets-nerd to my-boyfriend-is-a-vampire - and mash it all into one, awful, hilarious parody. NOTE: This is a parody. Characters have not been created to mock a race/nationality/sexuality, they have been created to lightly poke fun at the way certain teen fiction writers reduce them into crude stereotypes. Thanks for helping this pile of junk get to #1 in Humor!

A fear of flying is one thing. Being seated next to a Tetris-addict who claims to be the Reaper is quite another. "He pulled out a business card. Where his profession should have been stated, the card read 'Destroyer of Worlds'. Nodding slowly, I pocketed the card."
