Tara thought she was just the teacher in a small settlement on the outskirts of the Empire. 

Leo thought he was just the bereaved brother of a long dead sister.

That's not how they see each other, or how their friends see them. If they don't discover their true stories, however, everyone will suffer. But how can a text, written hundreds of years before their births, provide them with the answers they need? 

Sometimes the pen is simply more dangerous than the sword.

**Update:- My minor chapter restructure turned into introducing new chapters from other POV's including Leo and Ting. It makes the build up far more satisfactory in my mind. Minor changes to other chapters to account for flow.**(CC) Attrib. NonComm. NoDerivs

Nora's lived on the island all her life--catching food, doing experiments, keeping what she considers a safe distance away from the Wolf. Then he starts acting weird. Right in the middle of working on figuring out the problem, she falls asleep. Genex wakes up with barely any memory of anything from his 13 years of life. All he knows is that he's got a pet saber-tooth tiger named Fluffy, his mom is dead, and that he's got a girl named Nora in his head (when he's really not supposed to). He woke up to the Aregonian gods, Osires and Zios, telling him about training and his future and staying away from Pantheos, the Aregonian god of the underworld. But everything they tell him to do, Nora says the opposite. Everything they say, Nora hints that they're lying to him. Unsure of what to think, and with Nora continuously telling him to simply "look deeper" and "wait a little longer", Genex decides he needs to find the answer, and he needs to find the answer now. -> This story can also be found in To Be a Writer, but I wanted to publish it seperately as well. :)

My Name Is Reo ✅ by TAndPens

First book in 'My Name' series.. She didn't inherit the 'smart genes' in the family, that was the first reason she was pushed aside. Still Reo struggled to get enough grades, but she can't be smart even after trying. Besides, it'll be wasted efforts compared to her 'prodigy brother' Leo. What her family didn't notice was her creativity. Her brains in Art, her love for children, and her withdrawal. When her brother goes missing a few weeks before his 'big award' and starts to hide from it all, the mix-up between her and her brother causes confusion, grief, anger, dissapointment, and a whole bowl of self-confidence at the end. * "Hey! Leo? It's Leo! I heard you're so much smarter than the Physics professor. Is it true your IQ is over 220?" I feel concerned by her questions. "It's all for charity... to the, orphans?" Her friends chip in. "I'm not Leo sorry." The Redhead holds my wrist between her inked hands. "No, please. We know it's you. Everyone says you're shy but I didn't know it is this bad." I look from my hand to her wide smile in anger. "Let go of me." I say. "Now." "She's bossy! Oh my!" Their excitement causes her hand to tighten around my wrist. "I said, let go of me." They giggle again. "What is wrong with you! Let go of me! I'm not Leo, I'm Reo!" "Lying? That's-" "I said my name is Reo!" . Began: June 7, 2020 . Ranking: #1 in coverup!

Clasp {Book Two of the Deathly Consequences Series} by MadameBitch01

After I left the Quad behind in NightShade years ago, I thought my heart was broken beyond repair. Shattered. Dust in the wind. But with my dreams of a future sustaining me, I pushed on. Forged by the flames of fucking Fate to fulfill that naive hope. After seven years of hiding, surviving, and fucking strength of will, I thought I had those dreams made into reality. Until even that was taken from me too. But I am fucking Thana Lillith Kage, the last true Necromancer left standing. And I will be damned if I let my enemies take my second family from me. Never. Again. {Warning. This book is still in the editing stages and I work a full time job out in the real world (fml) so the chapters are either a plethora of words or short and sweet. Like I said before, this is a slow burn RH. The beloved Quad will be more present in the next book while I focused solely on Thana in this one. I hope you all enjoy...to whomever reads this ❤️}
