HEAT |OMEGAVERSE| ⚣ ✔️
"I want you, all of you. I want you to beg for me, to need me. I want every ounce of you to belong to me and only me," Alex whispers into my ear as his muscular arms wrap tightly around me. His breath is hot against my skin, and a shiver runs down my spine, mixing desire with a touch of fear. I can feel the weight of his words pressing down on me, stirring something deep inside me, like a longing I can't quite make out. ༺═──────────────═༻ In a world where hierarchy reigns supreme within the Omegaverse, equality is a distant dream.... One person walks on water, while the other drowns beneath their feet. But that's how's it's always been between Alphas and Omegas-even sometimes between Betas and Omegas. Jasper Avery, a twenty-three-year-old man, finds himself trapped in the depths of his own hell, burdened by his identity as an omega. His life has been a relentless cycle of ridicule, abuse, and self-loathing-that is until he encounters Alex Sinclair after waking up in an Alley. Jasper thought he would be another unforgiving and possibly cruel alpha... but Alex just may be everything he could ever want. As their worlds collide, intimacy blossoms, and unexpected feelings arise; but just around the corner an unforeseen situation threatens to unravel their fragile connection.

Gaslight Trials | The Wattys2023 Shortlister ✔️
| 𝟳𝘅 𝗙𝗘𝗔𝗧𝗨𝗥𝗘𝗗 ·|| HUNGER GAMES x CINDER || ONC 2023 Honorable Mention Amidst the escalating unrest between the windborne utopian city of Lighthaven and its seedy, oppressed underbelly Fumedge, the Grand Duke of Lighthaven, Lucius Sextus, comes up with an ingenious solution. To provide much-wanted respite from the brewing conflict, and achieve the apparent-if-temporary unity, he organizes Gaslight Trials - a highly entertaining panem-et-circenses combat event in the Pits. The combatants may use all steam and thaumaturgy powered augmentations at their disposal, and there is only one rule: defeat, or be defeated. The reward for the last one standing? A chance to start their life anew. A brass key to the city of Lighthaven with a luxurious mansion to call their own within, as well as an aeroship to command. When eighteen-year-old Veda Igglesden steps forward to take her timeworn adoptive father's place in the fight, she might as well be signing her death-sentence. With her eyes fully set on the prize, act-first-think-later Veda must harness the power of technology to try and win for her Papa Otto. Decades of breathing in the toxic air of Fumedge did a number on the old inventor's lungs, and being able to live in the air-filtered Lighthaven would sure come in handy right about now. A high-flying adventure full of gadgetry and intrigue; a pleasing blend of steampunk and postapocalyptic. See Veda unravel the mysterious ploy behind the game's organization, and uncover the truth about her secret origins. Can she cope both with the trials of physical and intellectual prowess, as well as with the trials of life itself: those of love, loss and regret? © 2023 EvelynHail Exclusively on Wattpad Based on prompt 49! Which is (I shan't leave ye hanging :P): "Master the rules of the game until you can play it better than they can." Michael Scott, "The Sorceress" Get ready for steampunkish tinkering,Concluida

This is not an Apocalypse
The world is changing, two years ago strange weather, various anomalies and strange creatures started appearing from nowhere all over the world. Some creatures were completely alien and others were familiar looking as if they'd stepped from myth and legend. What many of these creatures had in common however was their aggressive nature and predatory instinct. Things that go bump in the night, that shifting shadow in the dark alley way, the cracking branch right behind you. Nightmarish creatures now stalk the land. Monsters. That isn't the only change in a new world however, humans have also changed. Some unknown phenomenon has granted humanity access to incredible power. The very elements themselves can now be wielded by those willing to risk the dangers. Earth, wind, fire, water, suddenly magic has become possible in a modern world and there are many who are eager to develop and embrace their newfound power and help protect their fellow man from monsters.
