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.

Willing to risk her life, a seasoned soldier recruits a vengeful goddess to fight a war of the future. *** When UN Army Captain Akira Dunn is sent to investigate an outlandish legend, she doesn't question her orders. Realistically, she knows it's impossible that a goddess lives among them; even less likely is that said immortal is dead set on destroying the world's greatest enemy, Verus Rex. So when myth becomes reality, and she finds herself face to face with the goddess Danya, Akira begins to feel something she had forgotten over the last fourteen years of war: hope. Unfortunately, Concordia is far from an easy opponent, and the country in the sky seemingly takes pride in destroying the world beneath them. Danya's defiant personality, coupled with her sporadic outbursts of anger, doesn't help either, and it's Akira's job to keep the temperamental goddess in line. But Akira refuses to let that stop her. For the sake of their future, and for those that no longer have one, Akira intends to do whatever it takes to end the war once and for all. *** WARNING: This story contains depictions of suicide and violence that may not be suitable for some readers.

[Wattpad Featured Story] ❝𝐘𝐎𝐔 𝐀𝐑𝐄 𝐑𝐄𝐌𝐄𝐌𝐁𝐄𝐑𝐄𝐃 𝐅𝐎𝐑 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐑𝐔𝐋𝐄𝐒 𝐘𝐎𝐔 𝐁𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐊.❞ The last time the MACUSA Surveillance Wizarding Resource Department sent out an emergency message, it was back in 1926 when a warning was sent out claiming the Magical Exposure Threat Level had increased to Severe for unexplained activity. Since then there have been a few incidents here and there, but most of the surveillance has fallen upon the activity of No-Majs otherwise known as non-magical folk. For centuries, the wizarding realm has kept itself hidden and separate from No-Majs, allowing each side to handle their own affairs. But when a threat occurs brought on by an ill-tempered God, even the wizarding realm finds itself shaken by what could be coming. An elite group of No-Majs with abilities are rumoured to be coming together to put an end to the threat and MACUSA wants to make sure that the job will be done with as little casualties as possible. So, breaching the International Statute of Secrecy during the time of crisis, they send in one of their best to assist the cause. Enter Duffy Dagny, a highly recommended Hit Witch employed under MACUSA.
