It did everything she commanded without a second thought, but Aysun swore she could see a soul buried deep down in Little Brother's eyes. Was he a man, pleading for help? Or was it a machine, hell-bent on destroying her?

    BLUE EYES is a riveting Avant-Garde political thriller set in the South. The is the author's six work of political fiction and the first showcased on WattPad.   On June 28, 1963, a group of southern white men met at a secret location in Nashville, Tennessee, to discuss whether they would assassinate President John F. Kennedy. Hosted by Vanderbilt students, the group members came from different colleges across the South. The young men were well educated, entitled to their positions at hand, and, like others who came before them, their soiled minds were limitless. They came from elitist old southern families that laughed at boundaries, especially political ones. For them, rising to the top was simple and utterly possible if you followed the core rules of the Blue Eyes Club and the nine members overseeing the group—the Murder Board: bring your best idea to the Murder Board; successfully sell your best to the other eight; get it approved; and then pull it off. Pulling it off successfully means rising to the center position on the Board, and that is when the good life supposedly begins. This story is about one of those nine who rose to the center position, his family, and the poisoned legacy he left behind.

In the collection: Family Tree: Adam looks to his future, and by doing so, completely neglects a past treaty. Selling his wonder and reverence for the world and its laws for the fruits of the corporate ladder and the comfort of his family; he will repay his agreement, one way or another.

As all of O'Brien's classic tricks fail to restore Rebecca's self, it soon becomes clear that the teenager is possessed with something no holy man could purge, a god. Not all dogs go to Heaven: Charlie awakes in darkness, the one thing that saves him from the jaws of the family dog. He is guided to safety by Arabella, an old cat and a wise ally of the dark. Will Charlie have faith in her unorthodox instructions, or will he panic and go where his fears tell him? Solidarity: He gave the call, and everyone you know answered it. You know he speaks lies, you know he gives a fate worse than death. You are dragged to where 'all his promises shall be fulfilled' and he doesn't need to lift a finger: your family and friends have been fully convinced: hook, line and sinker.

    Imagine a world where human life is meaningless. A world where people come from conveyor belts in factories and where everyone is engineered with a single purpose in mind. A place where your life is valued only when you do your job and do it well, and where the moment you outlive your use the asphyxiation sets in. A world where your purpose is defined by what you look like, and where wars can start because someone, somewhere, was bored. This is Arksiane. Consider in this world another power. A power that thrives on anarchy, rather than order. A land that embodies the phrase 'meritocracy' in the truest sense, where people are judged only by their actions--and in some cases, enslaved by them. This is Outland. Although it may seem like a war of black and white, the actions of all will color the pool, and soon it will be only gray. ***
