The story of your sexual capitulation told by the bloodthirsty supervillain who discovered your secret identity, ruined every chance of you maintaining a normal functioning relationship, and is kinda-sorta (without a doubt, definitely) obsessed with you. ***** Your name is Hector Jean-Baptiste. By day you're an upstanding college student: rugby star, stellar Haitian son, autism activist. By night you're Makeshift, an electrokinetic powerhouse hailed as the greatest superhero of our generation. Keeping your beloved alter ego a secret shouldn't be an issue, but recently your sadistic archnemesis, Vortex, can't seem to grasp the importance of personal space... Basically, the deadliest villain in the world disguises himself as a charming barista intending to seduce, corrupt, and destroy America's favorite poster boy (AKA You) only to fall dangerously in love with the kind-hearted man (Also You) behind the mask instead. Whoops? ★ Featured during #CelebrateBlackStories, #BlackPride2021, and #WrittenwithPride2021 ★ Wattpad Certified Fresh Read CONTENT WARNING: This story contains strong language, mild violence, sensual themes, and mentions of racism and homophobia.

"You have two options," the Enchantress said, twirling the pipe between her fingers. "One, you find everything on this list before my deadline. You give it to me, and I let you go on your merry way." "And if I don't?" She gave me a wicked grin. "Well, that leads me to my second offer. I kill your sister." ------ Snow White's apple. Cinderella's slipper. The spinning wheel of Briar Rose; and that's only the beginning. It's a recipe for disaster, but it's also the only thing that could save her sister. With her best friend Red, a demon who may or may not want to kill them, and an obnoxious princess, Emerson is in for the heist of her life.

The story should have ended when the Jack Ford and her friends were exposed as the city vigilantes. The story should have ended when they were at the mercy of the corrupt mayor of Davenport City. Instead, they become a ragtag team, working with unlikely allies, saving the city that had become a prison. A plot that extends beyond the city limits threaten to shake up everything they have known, but how can they expect simple children to stop it all? Pulled in two different directions and tormented by her own mind, Jack is all but powerless to watch her world crumble to dust, unless they manage to get their act together. The story has barely begun. Even with the world at stake, it's going to take a lot more than that to make these seven super-powered teens work together.

A collection of short stories both old and new. Some are mysteries. Some are thrillers. Some are about love. Some are just old school assignments that I've gone back and edited. Not all of them are perfect or fantastic. But I've always wanted to share them with others. I'll be slowly going back through old short stories I've written and editing them. And I'm going to write some new short stories as well.
