[COMPLETED] "Love can be cruel," he mutters. "I thought it would be the reason I would propose, but it's not. Love never wins, does it?" Cruel. Devious. Twisted love. Love can play games, and we just happen to be the pawns. We play our moves strategically like a game of chess, until it comes to this moment. We can let the world separate us, stop us, pull us apart. We can let this old love between us fray at the edges. If love is a game, then Cato and I are destined to lose. "You're right," I whisper. "But love still exists. Even for a moment." His knuckles brush against my waist, before he decides to pull me flush against his chest. We're close, and burning, and his breath feels like electricity on my skin. In his green eyes, I see remnants of the heavens, the northern auroras flashing illuminating inside of them. He holds a new world inside of him, and I long to be the first to discover it. Cato's nose brushes up against mine, the space between our mouths fading like stardust. "Even for a moment," he murmurs my words against me. At once, our tensions release. ─── ·𖥸· ─── One half of her heart belongs to the man from the stars. The other belongs to the man of smoke and ash.

Prisoner 999 (Under Editing)
Sneak preview: 2035, 12 January, Mars "NOOOO!" I screamed and tried to break free from the iron grip on my right arm. Tears were streaming down my face as I saw my Mother and Father drop to the ground with blood oozing out of the wound from their backs. "Come on, Emmaline. We have to go!" My Soard, Sam hissed and tugged at my arm, dragging me along. I followed his pull but continued to stare at the blurry lifeless body of my parents. Their blank and lifeless eyes were still on me but they held one word; Sorry. My lips quivered a little. Sam pulled me into the spacecraft and I placed both of my hands onto the glass as he settled me down onto my chair. --------------- This is a story about sacrifice, heartbreak, broken promises, friendship and sadness. But there are hints of happiness, hints of romance, dangerous love, a love like a rose with thorns around, bittersweet partings, light feathery kisses...

Love on the Red Planet (COMPLETED)
October 24th, 2050 was the day we watched the Earth die. We watched from our colony on Mars. Our satellites circled the Earth sending video back.

Sentilia
Maxine is an 18-year-old girl who is bored and lonely, living in California in the year 2351. She's always been fascinated with how humans used to live in houses, drive cars, and the fact that there used to be forests and parks everywhere. Now, after a war that nearly erased humanity, people are forced to live a strict, dull, communist lifestyle. Everyone seems okay with this way of life. Everyone except Maxine. Maxine had always been special; she was often able to predict events. How? She didn't exactly know...yet. When she starts having dreams about a tropical island where people live as they did in the 21st century, she meets the man of her dreams: literally. Her new boiling emotions bring her to wonder...what if it's a real place? When she starts her search for the island and bumps into Elis-the man in her dreams-she suddenly knows it wasn't all just a making of her imagination. Finding that island could mean finding the answers to her burning questions, and maybe even answers to questions she didn't know she had. However, not everything is what she thought it would be when she finally finds the island, and her dreams become a harsh reality. Elis turns out to be someone else, and when another man swoops in every time Maxine is in danger, she becomes confused about what love really is. The Advisors, the ten women governing the world, want to assimilate the people of the island, not knowing that those people have an extreme advantage over them. Maxine also learns that her family has been lying to her about who she really is. Ultimately, when the Advisors come to destroy the island, she must face the fact that she is the key to the island's salvation, and embracing her rapidly developing abilities is the only way to do so.Complete
Blood of Mars
Beauty is skin deep...but blood lies just beneath the surface... In 2035, the first colony on Mars was established. Only a year after, it cut off all contact from Earth, and its inhabitants were presumed dead. They were wrong. In 2037, the skies of Earth were smothered by darkness. The Martians returned to the place they once called home...and they were no longer human. The people of Earth were crushed by the bloodthirsty, vampiric Martians and reduced to little more than livestock for their flesh and blood. Two decades later, in what is now known as Neo Tokyo, Mana Tsugumi lives an oblivious existence among the groveling, impoverished masses, turning a blind eye to the cruelty surrounding her, until a fateful encounter nearly ends her up in the clutches of the hungry vampires. With her eyes wide open to the perils of the outside world, she must make a dire choice- submit and remain livestock, or fight back to regain her humanity.Complete![The Eclipse [Sundrop/Moondrop x Female!Reader] (COMPLETED!)](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/359025873-256-k601236.jpg)
