At first we were experiments. 
But soon we were built into success. 
And then to be sold as merchandise. 
We created a whole new industry and economy. 

But in truth... all we wanted to do was live. 

****
The mechanic and robotics industry has boasted to new heights in 2019. Prosthetic limbs are now realistic and functional to the most powerful capacity than they ever have been. But also it has expanded. First beginning in Japan and then growing over seas into the United States. The Dolls have become a hit. Selling for millions. Once bought they can never be resold. If faulty just destroyed. 

The only thing a doll is supposed to do.... is follow orders. 

So why can't three dolls follow orders like they were programed too? They must be found and they must be eliminated on sight. No matter what. Regardless of who they pretend to be...deep down....they are dangerous.

The soulmate gift by constellation201
40 parts Complete Mature
••• Oh yeah, I think I forgot to mention, some of us humans are "gifted" as we like to say, in short, we have powers, well most of us do, anyway, powers that only show themselves when we turn 18. That's why an eighteenth birthday is such a big deal. Please note, that our powers come in all shapes and sizes. From elemental magic, to mind control, mind reading, time traveling, and even shapeshifting, and many, many, more. Even though some humans don't get powers, it's still better than getting what is known as The Soulmate Gift. What is it? You may be asking yourself. Well... It's when you can see what your soulmate sees and when you can talk to them mind to mind. Why is this such a bad thing? It only appears when one of the pair is in danger or is about to marry or spend their lives with someone other than their soulmate. So yeah, heartbreak is definitely present in the equation. And yes, you've guessed it, I, Amelie Diamandis, have the Soulmate Gift. And the fire gift. Which should be impossible. Isn't that just great? Oh, and my soulmate wants nothing to do with me....I think? ••• For as long as humans could remember you either got one gift or nothing, it's impossible to have two or more. A human with more than one power has been unheard of. Until today. When two people, destined since birth, break history with powers destined for destruction and a destiny that none can fathom. ____ THIS IS A FIRST DRAFT #167 in magic out of 270K 2021-12-05 #6 in high fantasy 2021-12-06 #21 in meant to be 2020-07-10 #43 in epic fantasy 2020-07-10 #31 in gift 2020-07-10 #31 in mate bond 2020-05-06 #58 in loneliness out of 12K 2021-12-02 ____ This story contains mature subject matter such as violence, reader's discretion is advised. ___ I couldn't find the artist that made the girl on the cover, if you know who it is please send me a message so I can credit them :)
Fate Interrupted by LNRoberts1
52 parts Complete Mature
🥇 Wattpad Amby Award Winner - 2023 Top Pick in Romance.🥇 After eleven years of no contact, fate thrusts ex-lovers Ren and Gio back together. Their chemistry is immediate, but she thinks she's broken beyond repair, and he thinks he's a train wreck unfit for relationships. Though these high school sweethearts still harbor deep feelings for each other, in order to fully heal their relationship and themselves, they must first reveal their deepest secrets. ♥︎ DualPOV. Ren: I have to admit it... I never got over Giovanni. I thought I had moved on, even married another man. But just when I had my life all neatly put together, it all broke apart. Now I'm nearly thirty, freshly single, and living back home with my mom in California, where the hot and heavy teenage memories of Gio still taunt me. Then, as if by fate, after eleven years of no contact, he walks back into my life, his gaze licking up my body like fire, and Zap! All it takes is one look to feel the intense connection surging between us again... and I know he feels it, too. Damn, Gio was hot at seventeen, but now he's the souped-up, modified version. What will it take to get him back? And if I do, would he accept me and the way in which I'm broken? Gio: Fuck, I'd give anything to get back together with Ren, but every time my heart leaps forward, I immediately take two steps back. She knows me well enough to sense I'm keeping something hidden behind my enigmatic eyes, but she wouldn't want the man I am now. I'm so afraid that the way I am could be our final deal breaker.
