In the great country of Aelburn, a girl with hair the color of rust and a boy with a deadly secret live separate lives. While one lives in luxury, the other lives in the sewers with others just like them. 

When their worlds collide, loved ones are caught in the crosshairs and two contrasting individuals set differences aside to save them. Accompanied by a man filled to the brim with sarcastic remarks, a soft spoken man with psychopathic tendencies, a soldier with a heart of gold and a kind woman whose smile shines like the sun, Willow Aellana and Lucas King work together to prove to the world that regardless of differences, people can work together to protect the ones they love. 

꧁ ꧂

❝ Keep your differences if you must, but never let them be the cause of hatred and differentiation. ❞

Abhijit Naskar, Saint of The Sapiens

The Dividing Line (Book 1) | BWWM by iliannabinoche
17 parts Complete Mature
Allen Cole McGregor was bred to hate. A fourth-generation neo-Nazi with blood on his knuckles and a five-year prison scar on his soul, Cole trusts only his name and the men who share his views-until the night they turn on him. Left to die on a snow-covered road out in the middle of nowhere, breath thinning, he welcomes the cold when it comes... and then opens his eyes to an angel. But.. She isn't what he was taught angels look like. Angel LeeAnna Brooks didn't plan to find a stranger bleeding in her path. She didn't plan to move faster than the fear growing inside of her, while hoping and praying that the man before her had no affiliations with the devil himself. After the swastika tattoos screamed their presence beneath his blood-stained clothes, Angel feared the man might be a demon, and she had no idea how to handle that revelation. Their collision is gasoline and a match: a Black woman hiding from pain and loss, a white man raised in a creed of rot, both trapped on a secluded homestead where winter is closing in and secrets stalk the walls. As enemies circle and old lies unravel, Cole is forced to confront the poison in his bones-and the one person willing to see the boy he buried alive. This is not a safe love story. It's a reckoning. Redemption has a cost, and crossing the line means someone-maybe both of them-won't come back the same. Trigger + Themes: racial tension, betrayal, survival, slow-burn redemption, enemies-to-lovers. ***MATURE 18+*** *AMAZON PUBLISHED BOOKS ARE EDITED TO REFLECT CHANGES NOT AVAILABLE ON WATTPAD* This is a Curvy Community Romance: #DISCLOSURE #CelebrateBlackStories #EyesLipsFierce #wattpadbookshelves ⛔️TRIGGER WARNING: This story is MATURE.

We have always been destined to rise above our already fascinating sentience; To evolve into something greater than we now are. Change is a fundamental essence of the reality we live in today, an aspect of life that has been here for centuries. A strand in our beautiful nature that we have learned to despise. As the saying goes, 'People are afraid of what they don't understand'. People tend to fight back against change and others embrace it. When the chance of evolution finally reveals itself to us, on what side will we be on? The side that chooses to let it soar the skies, or the side that chooses to use it selfishly? Humans are magnificent creatures, not because of their awareness of life. But for their capability to unite and divide themselves because they choose to do so. (This trilogy is dedicated to those oppressed by the violence and suffering that discrimination may bring upon them.) April 19th, 2020
Night of the Alphas by Livi_Dreamscape
44 parts Complete Mature
Adrian is conflicted. She's been uprooted from her home, her family is on the verge of falling apart, and her friends are constantly in danger. And it's all the fault of the Alpha Freedom Movement, an organization bent on dominating the country, and perhaps the world, if it gains the power to. She wants to go back to her home city of Charlotte to rescue her best friends, but her family wants to keep her as far away from the action as possible. It's much too dangerous there for a 13-year-old girl. But her fiery personality may prove difficult for her family to contain. And in case that wasn't enough, she notices that she has abilities that a normal person shouldn't have... Zane has a problem. Not necessarily a new problem. Him and his sister have been running away from the Alpha Freedom Movement for their entire lives. But when he gets drafted into the war against them, there's nowhere to run anymore. They need to stand and face the terrorist group that tore their family to shreds and gave them lifelong scars. And that might just mean endangering the lives of everyone around them, which is the last thing they want. When the two of them meet, they feel an instant need to protect each other. But they can't protect themselves and their friends from everything.

"I would've prayed for Them to go easy on you too." He moves and his eyes are on me, eyes where they are brimming with tears, but his soft smile confuses me. Gently caressing my temple, he gazes at me as if I'm the most delicate treasure. His lips kiss my fingers. "They did. A few years late but They did. Their mercy on me is you." ______________ While World War II is absorbed in its own devastation, a runaway slave stumbles upon a meadow. He is saved by a curious, lonely spirit and builds an affinity with her; but will he be her only salvation or eternal damnation? Either way, she can't let him go. And neither can he... as they're more similar than they thought. With unexpected gifts and losses coming their way, the starry-eyed lovers go on a journey for a sense of peace through a strange reality, a stark contrast to her own. The human world. Not an easy feat. Especially where ghosts and dreadful creatures are concerned. ☾✧⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄✧☽ Cover art by DuskBeetle This story isn't drama-filled and hasty despite the dramatics and the hassles. ▪︎ Ludus/Eros/Pragma & Philia ▪︎ Grumpy x Sunshine ▪︎ Interracial Couple ▪︎ 93k-98k words ▪︎ WARNING: Death, war, and miscarriage themes, harsh language, mild violence, implied trafficking Copyright © 2021 by L.I.
