"Underground, here, means safety. It means you don't have to worry about risks. Above means danger. Unknown things. That's all it is to most of us. That's all we know. But I can't help but think there is something great that comes with taking risks. Sure there is fear. But the question is can I live my life without knowing? I looked out below the cavern, at the bubbling stream that was unusually calm today. I think I know my answer."

Lila Jasmine is a 17 year old girl living in a city underground. She has lived that way all her life, and always wondered what it was like outside of the comfort of her home. All she knew was she needed more then this. Can she overcome the fear of unknown things? With the help of her friend Kyle, can they get above and learn the truth?All Rights Reserved

Counting Days by RubyMayflower

[Complete] Nina One day she showed up. The only baggage she carried with her was her father. Everyday, I passed her house on my way to school. She was always outside, sitting on the porch, her hand on her cheek and looking far off into the dirt beneath her. There was something...off about her. About everything in that house. I wish I wasn't so curious. I wish I had not done what I did. And now, I'm paying the price for it. I will never be the same. --- Esther The day she showed up at my house, knocking on my door and introducing herself, I knew my life would change forever. She was completely opposite of me. She was rich, pretty, and popular among many other things. And yet, the more I got to know her, we were similar in many ways. And that is what doomed us in the end. --- A short story filled with new-come friendships, sexuality, crime, drama, and so much more.

shadow's bargain by Blackduskm1dnight

Lila Ashbourne never believed in the supernatural. Raised in a family haunted by secrets and a past stained by tragedy, she's spent years running from the shadows that plague her bloodline. But when an enigmatic package arrives, containing one of her late father's journals, Lila is drawn back to Blackwood Hollow-a place she thought she had escaped forever. In the decaying mansion where her family's curse began, she discovers that the past is far from dead. And someone-or something-has been waiting for her return. Damien Blackthorn, the infamous heir to the Blackthorn curse, is a man of shadows and sin. With a bloodline bound to an ancient and malevolent entity, Damien has spent his life seeking redemption-or at least a way to break free from the shackles of his cursed existence. He's no stranger to darkness, but when he crosses paths with Lila, he finds himself tangled in something far more dangerous than the ghosts of his past. Their families are connected by more than fate-they share a blood debt to the same powerful force that has tormented them both. As Lila unravels the truth behind her family's curse, she finds herself at the mercy of a man whose love is as destructive as it is consuming. Torn between his cold indifference and his growing obsession, Lila must decide if she can trust Damien-or if her connection to him will only pull her deeper into the shadows. In a world where loyalty is tested, secrets lurk in every corner, and love is both a curse and a blessing, Lila and Damien are forced to confront their darkest desires. Can they break free from the chains of their bloodlines before it's too late? Or will their love consume them both in a deadly bargain with the very forces that have shaped their fates?

Atlantis Academy: The First Element by AutumnKalquist

Five Star Reviews for Atlantis Academy: "Omg this book was amazing I couldn't put it down or stop reading. I carried it with me open on my phone while I did everything just to keep reading. I need more of all of this. Epic story, epic content, epic visuals, just epic. LOVE THIS!" "Once I got into this story, I did not stop reading it. This is a beautiful story about a very awkward girl who is riven with so much pain and angst and yet... this makes her who she is and shapes her into the person she will become. The world she finds herself awakened to is magical and yet filled with the all-too-familiar cliques and tribes of the very human people who inhabit it. One word to describe the story: beautiful!" "The story pulls you headlong to the end and leaves you wanting to shout "No! Not yet!" ...If there were 6 stars, I would have given it that." *** Humanity is one secret society away from extinction. The children of Atlantis use magic to keep us safe. If they make it through the Academy. Hi, I'm Lyric. And I'm kind of a mess. ADHD, that's me.

Trees never bully me like the kids did at school. Or get drunk and throw things at my head. After my mom died, I figured life couldn't get much worse. I thought it might even get better. Ha. The universe has a great sense of humor. I should've listened to the rumors about evil spirits. About the angry, ancient magical creatures haunting our small Oregon Coast town. But did I? No. That was my first mistake. And it might be my last. 'Cause now I'm in a battle for my life. A whole new world has opened up... a magical world I don't understand. And the blood in my veins says I belong here. But I have to prove myself to save myself. And when have I ever done that?

Grayscale by coral_augustine

❝We shouldn't try to figure out every single thing in the world. Why does this happen, how does it happen? Why can't we just be content with being? Instead, the way our eye perceives color is explained, and how Earth was first formed, and everything. We fill ourselves with knowledge so much that something has to be emptied in order to make room for knowledge. So, our soul is poured out. Our appreciation for natural things are gone, thrown away. Our thirst for knowledge overcomes us. The world is a perplexity, let it stay like that. It's more beautiful that way.❞ We were made to live, not to observe. Marley Aspen knows first-hand what it's like to just get by, but to live, that's far out of her reach. Well, that is until befriending the new-girl, Sierra Ryder, shows her how to. But in unexpected twists and turns, Marley learns there is always more underneath the surface, and she gets more than she bargained for. Cover by: @leena-j

The echoes of tomorrow by The1mperfectDiary

In a world where the future isn't written but echoed, 17-year-old Lila hears the whispers of events yet to happen - but they're not hers. The echo she's been hearing for months is someone else's life, someone's fate, and that someone is in danger. As she tries to uncover the identity of the person behind the mysterious echoes, Lila finds herself caught in a web of secrets, shadowy figures, and a powerful organization that will do anything to keep their plans hidden. Can she stop what's coming before it's too late, or will the echoes become her own fate? First Chapter (Excerpt): I've always heard things. It started when I was younger - whispers of something I couldn't see, couldn't understand. At first, it was just faint sounds, like voices drifting from another world. But by the time I was sixteen, those whispers turned into something more - echoes. Clear, distinct, and impossible to ignore. It's strange. Most people think the future is something that hasn't happened yet. But for me, it's not that simple. I hear the future. The thing is, the future I hear isn't mine. I've been hearing her - a girl I don't know, yet know everything about. Her life, her fears, her pain. I can't explain how, but I hear her voice every night, calling out for help. I don't know her name. I don't know her face. All I know is that something horrible is coming for her. And if I can't stop it... then her fate might echo into mine. Tonight, I hear her again. The echo sharpens, clearer than ever before. "Help me, Lila. It's happening. They're coming." The echo fades. And just like that, I'm left with a choice - follow the voice, or ignore it and risk the consequences. I don't know why it's me she's calling to, but I can't just do nothing. I owe it to her. And to myself.

A New Life - In editing by ladymess

My Grandma used to tell me of a land. A land where there were birds and trees. A land where the sky was blue and the sun shone golden in the sky. She told me of green rolling hills and beautiful colourful flowers. She told me of the cities too, with buildings so tall they scraped the sky. She told me of the rain and how it would splash down on the land and make everything smell new and fresh. But she also told me of the war. The cold war. Lilly lives in a desolate world, underground safe from the toxic world above her. But she isn't safe from what lurks in the caves. No one is. But when there's a glimmer of hope and a chance for a happily ever after, will she have what it takes to save herself, her love and possibly the whole human race?
