Zoe is a teenage girl convicted of a murder she didn't commit, but that doesn't matter in the Arena of Justice. You either win your fights, or you die. ***** Seventeen-year-old Zoe never expected to find herself on the wrong side of the law, but when she's convicted of a murder she didn't commit, she's sentenced to the Arena of Justice - the home of gladiator matches where murderers fight murderers, and every fight ends with a death. Zoe's plan for surviving is simple: ignore the other inmates and fly under the radar until it's time to fight, but that's easier said than done. As hard as she tries to hate those she must kill, Zoe soon befriends the other inmates and falls in love - a deadly proposition when a moment's hesitation can prove fatal. It's up to Zoe to save her life, no matter how hard the system is trying to kill her. [[word count: 50,000-60,000 words]]

[COMPLETED] #1 on the Hot list in category Short Story. "I have a problem. The name Eva Hawkins has been running through my mind several times the past four weeks. That's what usually happens when a boy starts developing feelings for a girl. I wouldn't know as I always claim, I've never fallen in love before. Perhaps attirance and looks in general made me feel as if I didn't need to love. I could get anyone as simple as it sounds. No feelings attached or reluctance. One-time things. But I was falling hard and swift. It does go crazy when boys develop feelings. Thing is I'm that boy, and Eva Hawkins doesn't know I exist." ________ Copyrights © 8planets 2021 ⚑Highest Rankings (Short story - mm/dd/yyy): #83 (08/24/16) #60 (08/28/16) #54 (09/01/16) #7 (02/26/19) #1 (02/28/19) & (08/12/19) ⚑Started: July 19th 2016 ⚑Ended: February 2nd 2019 ⚑Marked as mature for strong language + violence + suicidal content.

❝Someday, I will leave and never come back.❞ ❅ Daniella Evans plans on spending her summer holiday in complete and utter peace; and by peace, she clearly means lazing around while gaining inordinate amounts of weight in the very process. Her plan fails miserably as her parents announce that they'd planned a surprise trip to Australia, and since Daniella nurtured a hobby of taking photographs of whatever comes to view, she was clearly ecstatic. With countless trips to amusement parks, bonfires, numerous confessions, spontaneous kisses, and unveiled secrets, Daniella definitely didn't expect her summer holiday to turn out like this. And she definitely didn't expect to develop feelings for Christopher Stone; a cold, ruthless boy. But what happens when Daniella leaves? After all, time is their most limited commodity. One thing's for certain, though: life always gets in the way. 111 in teen fiction 12/3/2016 cover by @devoursheabooks
