Power was never the problem. Control was. In a fractured, dystopian Nigeria, the elite Uppers rule with iron fists and marble halls, while the Lowers and Rejects survive on scraps-and silence. A government-issued drug called Nullisyn keeps the population obedient, suppressing superhuman abilities before they can awaken. Michael is just another Reject trying to stay invisible. Haunted by a brutal past and bound to a daily dose of lies, he lives for one thing only: keeping his crew alive. But when a single act of defiance exposes the truth behind Nullisyn, everything changes. As dormant powers awaken and the State tightens its grip, Michael and his friends are forced into a rebellion they never planned-against a regime led by Supreme Leader Jide, the architect of the system... and the monster tied to Michael's deepest scars. What begins as survival becomes revolution. From the slums to the shattered gates of Abuja, Rise of the Rejects is a story of power, sacrifice, found family, and the question that could burn a nation to the ground: Can those cast aside by society rise high enough to change it?

Based on the 1983 film The Hunger starring David Bowie (John Blaylock), Catherine Deneuve (Miriam Blaylock), and Susan Sarandon (Sarah Roberts). Bound by centuries of marriage, John should resist her. But every whispered word, every accidental brush, pulls him closer, stirs his hunger, and tests the boundaries of control. In the shadows of the apartment, desire becomes a dangerous, intoxicating game. POV switches from chapter to chapter, revealing the story from intimate and forbidden perspectives.

Peace was never meant to feel like survival.. When silence was praised, she chose resistance. Some stories do not offer comfort, they ask you to wake up. Since the story is rooted in a Bengali girl's life, there will be some Bengali dialogues. English dialogues and translations are added alongside for those dialogues to keep the flow smooth for all readers.. Happy Reading!

The sky has stopped bleeding, but the Regime is always hungry. Across the nation of Geordyne, the "Fourteeners" are being harvested. They are the brightest young minds of a crumbling world - the inventors, the rebels and the forgotten - and they are Marshal Cadoc's most-feared threat. From the soot-choked alleys of Castlefye to the glistening dunes of Onaaba, all the way to the frozen forest of Indigo Steep, an unspoken pact is in motion. For Owen and Bryn, it begins with a mysterious carriage manned by a lanky giant. For others, the path to sanctuary is paved with lights and shadows. Plucked from their lives by fate or by force, this disparate group is thrust into a world of trials and a secret academy hidden beyond the maps. But the Yorne Academy of Life is more than a refuge. It is a forge for a revolution. These are the chronicles of the pupils who were never supposed to disembark. A small army of progress in a world that wants them silent. The gears are turning. The tide is rising. And the Gooubs are in formation. Are you brave enough to be lost? Follow me on IG for news, insights and more: @KassandraNiklaus

Julian Cross survived the desert, survived St. Harlow's, survived the hunters who should have killed him a dozen times. But survival has a price, and it just came due. The ring on his finger isn't just cold-it's *hungry*. The father who welcomed him into a world of immortal power isn't just proud-he's the architect of a prison so vast, so beautiful, that the billions trapped inside call it civilization. And the weapon pressed into Julian's hand-forged from primordial darkness, designed to unmake souls-was meant to be his birthright. They want him to be the heir to an empire built on human despair. They've given him everything he never had: belonging, purpose, a throne waiting in shadows. But Julian remembers the boy who died to put this ring on his finger. He remembers the rebellion that burned, the friends who became ghosts, and the look in a child's eyes as vampires tasted her terror like fine wine. The question isn't whether he'll fight. The question is whether, after everything they've done to remake him, there's enough of the boy from the desert left to light the match.

Aaron Lars never questioned the world around him. It was perfect-on the surface. Then he heard a girl in his dreams.

Franus, a recently escaped inmate from Porte Porvair Donjon can't remember who he was before his imprisonment. Newspapers and city folk label Franus Maculos everything from a blood-hungry terrorist to a model idealist. What's worse, the authorities seem to think his escape an unacceptable consequence of their ineptitude. Lamond is a simple dock supervisor. He pushes his men hard and puts in extra work himself. Yet beneath his hard exterior, he yearns for a better future. One where everyone in Porte Porvair has a comfortable life, not just those at the top. Halyan is a wannabe lawyer stuck in a corrupt bureaucracy. His world seems built to keep him a lowly man. When change marched around the corner, he is the first to dive headlong into the water. The revolution was built on promise and hope. But the fight against the tyrant was only the first phase of the war. Our hope and promise burns fast when we can't agree on what that hope and promise was about.

When 'reach for the stars' stops being a metaphor. Being a productive member of society was always expected of me-by my family, my friends, and my coworkers. I thought I was doing my part in customer support, helping people every day, until the demands pushed me past my breaking point. So I left. I built a quiet life on my own terms: a cabin by a lake, a thriving garden, bees, and distance from the pressures that nearly destroyed me. Just when I believe I've finally found peace, strange lights circle the stars-and I'm lifted off the path leading back home. I wake in a place that is cold, controlled, and very interested in what I can do. What first looks like a gift-a greenhouse, fertile soil, the chance to grow-quickly becomes something else entirely. I wasn't brought here by accident. I was chosen because I'm useful. As the trials continue and my memories begin to blur, I'm forced to confront the truth of their desperation-and the cost of refusing to cooperate. They need me to save their world. I just want my life back-if I can still remember what that was. Author's note: This novella is my first entry for the Wattpad Open Novella Contest.
