(Completed) (Editing in progress) She was a Princess every Kingdom feared; every Crown Bearer avoided; every Dynasty remembered. Selene Yami. A threat to her mother. A stranger to her twin. A savior to her father. She was trained under ruthless conditions, which eventually turned her heart into ice - just as it had been with her Father, just as it had been for the Yami Dynasty. She was the very best assassin there was, First Princess of Yami, heir to the throne - and a child who was deprived of feelings. She had been broken. She had been traumatized. She had been lonely. But the only person who extended his hand - her Father - simply asked her to look forward rather than craving for the warmth of another person. Her existence meant an Empress to continue the bloodline - born to serve her homeland for the entirety of her existence. Selene stopped hesitating raising her sword eventually. Be it her sibling, be it her parents, or be it someone she truly cared for - an enemy is an enemy. She began as an unfortunate Royal, she ended up a Tyrant Empress. --- INSPIRATION: The Story of Evil, a series of songs made by Akuno-P, also known as mothy. --- COVER CREDIT: Stunning cover by the amazing Avery!

What if you threw your life away and the world threw it back? If you found yourself in credit to the value of one life? Would you spend that credit on a worthy cause, if fate offered up the chance? **** Alone and a long way from home, Nick's big city adventure is not going at all to plan. With his dreams in ruins and his world crumbling around him, he's struggling to see a way out. Ripped from her everyday life, isolated and imprisoned, Mica's one desperate wish is to escape the urbane monster who sees her as nothing more than a plaything. And for Jaime Salazar, wealth, privilege and power are not enough. At the head of his global crime syndicate, he'll stop at nothing until he has all he wants. Two lost souls, brought together by the strangest of circumstances, find themselves pitted against a crime lord with no mercy in a city that doesn't care. And with so little left to lose, neither will hesitate to risk it all. "Don't say what you're about to say. You can't. Because, right now, if all of this ends, it doesn't matter. But, here's the thing. The instant it starts to matter - it ends. Don't make it matter, Mica." **Please note, as of August 2022, Fearless has been significantly edited, revised and updated.**

When 18 year-old trust fund kid Quinn York's tourist shuttle to Mars unexpectedly crashes, he wakes up only remembering one name: Celeste. He knows he has to find her no matter the cost, even if he loses his own life in the process. Quinn discovers the world is changed however; the nuclear holocaust that caused the shuttle to crash also set the world in commotion. It becomes a "kill or be killed" life for Quinn as he does anything he can to find Celeste. To do so, he must survive cruel raiders, grotesque animals, and a new breed of mutated human survivors called Skulks. **PLEASE NOTE: This is a progressive book, meaning throughout the book, the main character will be presented with different options. A "Choose Your Own Adventure" if you will! It is up to you as the readers to determine the actions of Quinn York. I don't know how this story will turn out, and I'm excited to see what path it takes. Will Quinn be a fearless raider killer or will he become the most horrible human being on the planet? THE READERS WILL DECIDE - HIS FATE IS IN YOUR HANDS!!! **Please comment at the end of the chapter about which action you vote for to make it simpler for all of us. I will require a minimum number of comments/votes before moving on, which I will state at the end of the chapter. I will post a new chapter once a week, because I do have a busy life, and I will be doing several revisions on top of massive brainstorming depending on what options you all choose. So please be patient, and please "LIKE" my book to spread the love. Thanks and enjoy reading "Nuclear"
