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. What was I then? For that, I had no answer [[Word count: 495,000]] Copyright August 2016. All Rights Reserved. Readers may not copy, alter, or steal this story.

Before Massachusetts, before the superpowers, before the truth... there was a night that changed everything. The night Sam's world burned. The incident everyone calls an accident-and only he knows is a lie... This Prologue reveals the beginning of it all: fire, shadows, and the moment destiny reached for him... long before he understood what it meant...

The year is 2050. The oceans are drowning the world, and humanity is desperate. Engineer Marcus Leinhart, driven by grief and a boundless ambition, offers salvation: Project Acheron, a colossal drilling operation designed to drain the rising sea into a presumed cavity deep within the Earth's crust. Despite the frantic warnings of climate scientist Dr. Aria Wen-a brilliant "Cassandra" paralyzed by predictive anxiety-the world embraces the miracle. The drill breaches the lithosphere, and the water level drops five feet in an hour. Humanity cheers. Marcus is a hero. But the relief is a mirage. The earth begins to drink, and the drink turns to a torrent. Sea levels plummet far below pre-industrial norms, revealing stinking, toxic deserts of exposed continental shelf littered with ancient shipwrecks. The once-drowning world is now consumed by The Great Thirst. Aria realizes the terrifying truth: they didn't find an empty cavity; they shattered a pressurized, stabilizing seal. The planet is "breathing" the ocean in to equalize pressure, and its seismic "heartbeat" signals a cataclysmic endgame: total crustal slippage that will wipe out all life. Forced into an uneasy alliance, Aria and a shattered Marcus must descend into the deepening, groaning abyss of the abandoned Acheron rig, down past the rock and into a subterranean world of super-heated steam and terrifying crystal formations. They have triggered an extinction event, one that occurred naturally 250 million years ago. Now, with time running out and the survival of billions resting on a final, impossible choice, they must decide if technology can still save them-or if the price of hubris is a sacrifice greater than either of them can bear.

At Noryoku High, there is a secret class, a class called Class Zero. Each student in this class has a superpower, called an emanation, a super rare power that only the gifted can earn. But, no one except for the people who have the power know about it. So, the whole class has to keep the power a secret to prevent disaster. To help cover up the class better, the gifted students along with the powerless students go to the same school.

In Adventure Bay, storms don't just bring rain-they bring reckoning. When a catastrophic superstorm barrels toward Adventure Bay, Ryder and the Paw Patrol are thrust into the most dangerous mission they've ever faced. Roads collapse. Communication lines go dark. And people are counting on them more than ever. But as the team races against the clock, a tragic accident leaves Ryder missing in action-and presumed dead. Katie is shattered. Her heart never stopped beating for him, even when he pulled away to protect her from the dangers of his work. Now, with only the pups and a fading hope to guide her, Katie takes up a quiet role in the chaos-patching wounds, comforting frightened citizens, and hiding her own heartbreak. But Ryder isn't gone. He's stranded, wounded, and holding onto one thing stronger than pain: the thought of Katie. With every step he takes through the storm-ravaged wilderness, her voice is the anchor in his mind, her love the fire in his chest. As the days stretch on and the storm refuses to let go, the line between survival and surrender blurs. And when Ryder and Katie finally come face-to-face again, everything unsaid, every broken promise, every whispered "I miss you"... crashes down like thunder. "I thought I lost you." "You didn't. I just had to find my way back... to you." "Always yours?" "Even in the storm." Always Yours, Even in the Storm is a breathtaking tale of love surviving disaster, second chances rising from ruin, and the kind of loyalty that never fades-even when the skies fall.

When twenty-eight-year-old photographer Anastasia Halloway flees to Greece after a brutal breakup, the only thing she wants is silence, sunshine, and no emotional surprises. What she gets is Chester Harrington - a polished, executive with a PR crisis trailing him like a storm cloud - and a luxury villa that's been double-booked. They're total opposites with one thing in common neither can afford more chaos. So when a famous news anchor mistakes them for a blissful couple and the story goes viral, they're shoved into a spotlight neither asked for... and both suddenly need. To protect his reputation and her privacy, Anastasia and Chester strike a deal: play the part, stay out of each other's lives, survive the headlines. Simple. Until it isn't. Invited to Chester's sister's high-profile wedding, they must navigate meddling families, curious neighbours, and a chemistry that's impossible to fake. The closer they get, the thinner the line between performance and truth becomes - and the harder it is to figure out what's staged and what's dangerously real.

A haunted motel. A forgotten tunnel. A city on the edge of collapse. The Switch is a chilling techno-thriller where past sins resurface through broken machines, ghost signals, and a brother's final test. When systems fail and voices return, one man must face the horror he buried-and the switch he never pulled.

In the picturesque town of Winterbury, snow falls like magic, streets glow with candlelight, and the scent of cinnamon rolls drifts through the air. It's the kind of town where dreams feel possible, where love feels inevitable... and where secrets have a way of finding you out. Anna Carter and Noah Whitfield thought Christmas would give them a second chance. They believed in love, in miracles, in the magic of a perfect winter wedding. But their past is not so easily forgotten. Betrayal, lies, and forbidden love collide on the day they vow "forever," shattering the illusion of perfection and leaving their lives in ruins. Over the years, their paths diverge. Noah rebuilds himself through honesty, growth, and love, creating a life full of trust and fulfillment. Anna, however, remains trapped by bitterness, blame, and the choices she refuses to face. Eight years later, a chance encounter in the snowy streets of Winterbury brings them face-to-face again. One has moved forward. The other is still standing at the crossroads of regret and self-discovery. A Christmas Wedding Unwrapped is a story of love and loss, of choices and consequences, and of the quiet, unyielding magic of Winterbury-a town that reminds us that even broken stories hold the potential for redemption.

As you are keenly aware, our dear Earth has seen better days before the Great Desertification. And to make matters even more dire, our own attempt at combating it has turned against us. This planet is beyond our control, and beyond our help. Which is why we have taken to the stars for a fresh new start." "By the time you've received this -- we, among the rest of humanity's remnants, have set a course for the identified exoplanet Si-[**static**] confirmed to support life. As for you and anyone else unfortunate enough to've been left behind, our organization has left a parting gift to help mitigate this global dilemma. And so, we ask that you be advised." "If you happen to come across any carrier of the Absolute Zero virus, direct skin contact is to be avoided at all cost. Conventional long-ranged weaponry is highly recommended, flame throwers and explosives especially. But keep in mind that they can only slow them down, not stop them outright.

And if not, stay as far away from the carrier as possible -- until the intervening of one of our HH units. Rest assured, they will terminate them on sight. And with any luck, the virus we created will be nothing more than a regretful memory."

The Last Well of Zarathen A war fought not for land, but for the right to drink. The massive, impenetrable city of Zarathen is the final bastion against the "White Rime," an ecological blight that has poisoned the land and turned the mighty Nakrith River into a toxic, metallic sludge. Inside the walls, the ruthless Lord Khesh seizes control, knowing that the city's only true defense is its dwindling supply of clean water. Their desperate existence is shattered by the arrival of General Vykir and his vast, exhausted army. Vykir is not seeking conquest; he is leading an army of refugees, their families dying of thirst and sickness, and Zarathen's clean cisterns are their last hope for survival . As Vykir launches a relentless siege-a war of attrition fought with the fury of trapped animals-Khesh is forced to abandon all honor. He relies on Shem, a former slave and engineer who knows the city's hidden tunnels, to root out internal traitors and protect Zarathen's vulnerable underbelly. The conflict culminates in a devastating, high-stakes moral compromise: to save Zarathen, Khesh must destroy the very thing he fights for. He gambles everything on one agonizing choice: poisoning the city's own water supply and seizing Vykir's non-combatant families as leverage. The Last Well of Zarathen is a grim tale of survival where the cost of victory is paid in moral debt, forcing a society to choose between its soul and its survival. When the walls hold, who becomes the monster-the invader driven by hunger, or the defender willing to commit atrocities to survive?
