Awakening - The Last Science #1 by Etzoli

No one ever knows the whole story... Nestled deep in the forests of the Pacific Northwest, something is emerging. Kept in absolute secrecy, it seeps into a fading town, quietly shared from person to person. For Alden Bensen, a directionless high school graduate, this discovery could mean an escape from his empty existence. To Rachel DuValle, perpetually underestimated and dismissed by the world, magic represents a chance to become something much greater than herself. In the face of an unsuspecting world, their decisions shape the growth of a budding society discovering untold power. This potent force offers anyone the power to change humanity forever - or send it cascading into swift and total annihilation. ----- The Last Science is an ongoing science-fiction / low-fantasy web novel series. New chapters will be posted on Fridays for as long as it takes to tell the whole story. For Wattpad only, chapters are split up by individual scenes-if you would prefer the whole chapters in single pieces, please visit my homepage or another site where I post this story, thanks!

Wave Away (DISCONTINUED) by SubzeroArchive

This is an old book I have written since late 2018/early 2019. Me and my friend have worked on it for a long time. I kept it, because it was finished, but then discontinued it for a while. After that, I started writing the book again. This is the story of a cat named Katie, who was told the world was the same, urban or rural places, with no magic at all. But, what do you know; there's magic everywhere in this world! But with great magic comes great enemies. Not all places are the same, from split-in-half islands to kingdoms in the clouds, to windy crafting centers, to a cave in Antartica and much more. There's lots to explore, lots to fight, and lots to do.

Shadow and Steel by FHLevin

🏆 Chosen as Sci-Fi Book of the Month by Wattpad's @ScienceFiction. 🏆 Featured on Wattpad's @ShortStory. 🏆 Awarded Best Science Fiction at the October 2024 Flames Awards. Shadow and Steel: A Short Story Series. In a time where mankind has reached the stars, the light of progress does not shine on all. In the shadow of the Terran Commonwealth's steel grip lies the Fringe: a wild, lawless frontier where survival comes at the the barrel of a blaster. Here, smugglers, outlaws, and desperate souls navigate a world of dangerous alliances and deadly betrayals, carving out lives amidst the chaos of interstellar power struggles. In this unforgiving universe, technology is currency, and secrets worth dying for are traded in dark corners. Some fight for freedom, others for redemption, but in a galaxy ruled by cold steel and colder hearts, the line between hero and villain is as blurred as the stars themselves. In a world where every decision could be your last, only the strong survive amidst Shadow and Steel. Content Warning: This series contains violence, gore, death, betrayal, harassment, strong language, drug use, psychological trauma, themes of oppression and control, and mature situations. Reader discretion is advised.

Prideland by SquishyRoman29

Welcome to Prideland. Where paradise is an illusion. Prince Ian had everything. A title. A crown. Even the love of his life. But when a horrifying discovery leads to him being engulfed in an entirely new world, he must make choices and sacrifices that will affect the lives of millions- or suffer the consequences of his past being exposed. Prince Spencer doesn't have anything. A terminal illness is picking off his living days one by one and his people are slowly losing faith in his rule. His only hope lies in the kingdom's mysterious history- and a new stranger. The rules of his kingdom are simple. Only certain people may enter, and once you leave- you can't ever return.

Abby Dante by Armiella

My world does not have wars. We do not disagree. Our existence is Utopia, until one Abby Dante comes along to ruin it all. Her ideas are far-fetched, wild, impossible. She sees the world differently than the rest of us. I think I love her.

INVISIBLE BOUND by yuribluee

In a world teetering on the edge of illusion, she walks a path only she knows, tethered to a presence that exists in the shadows of her mind. No one else sees, no one else hears, yet the whispers of this unseen force echo like a lullaby, drawing her closer with each passing moment. Their connection is more than a bond-it's a mystery, a puzzle steeped in silence, holding secrets that twist through her very soul. As the veil between reality and the unknown begins to thin, questions arise. Is this a guardian or something far more dangerous? Each step pulls her deeper into a realm where nothing is as it seems, and the truth waits-silent, watchful, and filled with a power she cannot begin to understand. Something is coming. And it knows her name.

The Werewolf Girl (Camren) by ConnorJauregui

Lauren's parents were murdered when she was just fifteen years old. At school she is the badass who stays by herself, till one day of her senior year when a new student walks through the doors of her high school, turning her whole world upside down. Lauren thought she's already lived the worst part of her life...oh is the young werewolf wrong. ******* I suck at summaries but give it a try (: This was my first ever book. I never thought I could put together a whole Story. Back in 2016 my girlfriend used to write a book on her own, she was the reason I ever started writing anything so I'd like to thank her for that and even go as far as dedicating this book to her, even though we aren't a part of each other's life anymore. I started writing this book back in 2016 and since then I improved a lot. There was a time in 2017 - 2018 when I gave up on this book but in 2019 I finally decided to pick it back up and finish it off. Epilogue updated on June 29th, 2019. I know it's not the best book of all time but I'm proud of finishing it, even though the story and writing style doesn't match me as a person anymore.

How long will it take until one of them finds out?<br /> ⚠️WARNING⚠️ swearing, angst, blood, Dysphoria, misgendering, bullying, transphobia. Sorry for short chapters I'm not good at writing.

ZERO (Complete) by EdwardMullen

Against many people's fears and warnings, A.I. started off as an innocent project spawned by the curiosities of scientists and tech entrepreneurs alike. It eventually evolved into a complete robot uprising. It has been 5 years since the Automation War has ended. Billions of lives have been lost and disrupted. Society hardly resembles that which we once knew. The remaining survivors have attempted to pick up the pieces of their once shattered lives. Learning from their mistakes of the past, A.I. has been outlawed and strict measures are in place to protect the human species from extinction. Out of the rubble, a new government has formed and risen to power. They call themselves The Shadow - a group of anonymous hackers who control every aspect of civilization. They monitor its citizens through chip implants, which measure every aspect of their lives from their happiness, productivity, and overall contribution to society, etc. Low performers are systematically round up, and shipped off to be executed. In a hyper-connected world where every move is tracked and even predicted, nine strangers must figure out how to stop this group and restore order in the world. *** A cyberpunk thriller set in a futuristic world.
