[Watty Awards 2019 Winner - New Adult!] Damian Ryker is something of a nomad. In his 22 years of life he's moved a grand total of 14 times. But he's here to stay this time, honest. He's already got himself a cushy new job in town and he's exploring the popular local shops, like that coffee shop down the road. It seems nice enough, perhaps a little too hipster for his taste and the barista is awkward, if not the slightest bit weird. But there's something strange about the innocuous café, like-oh I don't know-earthquakes that seem to destroy it every morning before miraculously repairing themselves and leaving him with the only memory of it. And just when that sounded a tad off, things start to get...a little out of this world. ------------ This was my 2017 Nanowrimo story that I couldn't quite fall out of love with. Inspired by the fun and fascinating world of fan fiction AUs, I hope you'll have as much fun with this as I had writing it!

Ever since an event known as the Disaster, monsters and mayhem rule the world. There are those lucky enough to live inside the Fence, while those who don't, are treated little better than the beasts that they fear.

In the land of gods and monsters, humanity ravaged Malcea with endless wars. Their insatiable hunger for treasure, pleasure, and power led them to forsake the gods who had once guided them. For thousands of years, the gods remained silent, watching with grief and fury as their creations spiraled into chaos. But when humans stood on the brink of war with the ancient dragons, the gods finally chose to intervene. Their return, however, was far from merciful-for the Gods of Malcea had darker, more sinister designs for their wayward children. Karos, a soldier of Asalph, is one such pawn in their game. Trained to hunt dragons, his beliefs are shaken when he forms an unexpected bond with Ake, a dragon desperate to return home. As Karos questions the gods' motives, he must decide whether to uphold the laws of his homeland or fight for a future shaped by his own choices-and the fragile, growing bond with Ake who challenges everything he thought he knew. _______________________ @Haylee for this gorgeous cover!

Damon Matthews has it all. He's the most popular guy at school, has a hot girlfriend and has some of the best friends a guy could have. One friend stands out to him in particular, however. Meet Shane Flynn. The best friend of future prom king Damon. These two have been inseparable since they were five years old and always have each others backs. But what happens when lines are crossed? What happens when feelings develop between two best friends who are doing everything they can to hide it?

My life is pretty normal. I have a hot girlfriend, nice friends and everything around me is just chill. But then this guy comes along. He ramms my back with his shoppibg cart and i drop all of my things. While helping me pick them up, he stripes my hand with his and smirks at me. Weird. But the same night, this creep is in my bed. I don't know how the fuck he got in, but somehow he gets me to let him stay the night. He's weird, pervy and always comes on to me and says he'd love to fuck me and shit. But there is something about his behaviour i like. He is funny. And somehow i let him stay with me for a few nights. Which turn into weeks. He opened up about him from time to time and i notice, he does not have it easy. And something inside of me is changing as well. He makes me feel...weird. But not in a bad way. And i don't know why, but somehow my super hot girlfriend starts to piss me off. But sometimes things get awkward when he kisses my neck to tease me... but i know he's just joking. He always does that. - WARNING: This story contains self harm and verbal and mental abuse.☡ ... Again, i really don't know how to describe storys. This is really shitty explained. Well, this is not even a description this is more like his view over the first few days and stuff. Idk. Give it a go and then judge for yourself. I might change the description though because i only just started this book. But thanks already for reading. Have fun.
