My surroundings became clearer with each breathe that I intake, with every passing second, I only end up back at the start; panicking. It's routine I guess but I can't say... the longer I'm at the scene the more I panic and my breathing becomes irregular so to say.
Based on real events, this short story of sorts takes you through what i witnessed on a Saturday morning in the hills of Adelaide. The roads are never safe, never have been. Be mindful of that

Love in the Time of Zombies: An Apocalyptic Romance
This novel is a zom-com-rom, blending a zombie apocalypse with humor and romance. "Good morning, welcome to Grand Crest Hotel. May I have the name under which the room is booked?" "Han So Hee," she replied. The receptionist typed quickly on the keyboard. "Ah, yes, Ms. Han. You're in room 1102 on the 12th floor."

As she scanned the empty area, her eyes caught a figure-a man standing far away, motionless. Something about the way he stood unsettled her. Then, out of nowhere, a group of people rushed toward him. Startled, Han took out her phone, recording the scene from a distance. "What's going on?" she wondered. Planning to at least send the video to the police. "I shouldn't get involved in a street fight when I just landed here, right? ..." "Ugh ... I don't Know ..." She stepped closer, but what she saw next made her freeze in fear. The group wasn't just attacking the man. They were biting him, tearing at his flesh, their movements jerky and unnatural. Her stomach churned as her mind screamed the truth: "they weren't people.

[1] Apocalypse: Third Rebirth
What would you do when four men come into your life and completely turn it upside down?... All I wanted to do was hide away on my ranch with no one to bother me, but apparently, they had different plans. Luckily for them, this was not my first zombie apocalypse. If they learn to listen, we might just get out of this with our lives. If not, maybe I would finally be able to rest in peace. Li Dai Lu was born and raised Canadian in her first life. This meant that she was taught how to share, how to put others first and to keep the peace as much as she could. However, that all backfired in a spectacular way. Reborn in a new time and place, Li Dai Lu did her best to protect all those that she could from the zombies that were wiping out the human race. Unfortunately for her, those she rescued were not as grateful as they should have been. Killed by the very people she saved, she held her breath and waited for the calm, peacefulness of death. But the Fates were not too accommodating and our heroine woke up in her third life, a year before the zombie apocalypse. This time she would live life on her own terms, and to those that disagreed... well, she would have a few words for them. With four men at her side, she will shed the cloak of civility and become who she was truly meant to be. WARNING!!! This will turn into a Reverse Harem. Mature Content and Vulgar Language on board, and Rage Bait at the start.Complete
Daughter of Nyx (Book Three)
Reaching a decision that will forever change her life, not to mention the fate of the world, she seeks out the one person that can give her the strength she needs. However, she knows that this help won't come easy. Or painless. What she doesn't realize is that the Sons of Iapeth are on the hunt and should she get the help she desperately desires, they will come for her. With one group hunting her and another group hunting those she loves, the walls are closing in and time for them is running out and just as it seems there may be moonlight in her future, she lets her guard down and may pay the ultimate price. THIS IS THE THIRD BOOK OF THE (what was supposed to be trilogy, but it's looking like four... I hate me.) FOUR BOOK SERIES. If you start here, you will be HELLA confused. Please go back to Daughter of Night (A daughter of Nyx novel) STANDARD DISCLAIMER!!! THERE WILL BE SEXY TIME. There will be a lot of it. There will also be things that happen that might be uncomfortable to read. I can't apologize, because this is the story. I HOPE I gave enough warning to what was coming in the last book to not shock anyone. But here's your warning. THINGS MIGHT CHANGE as I am not finished with the novel. If things do, I will post an A/N alerting anyone to the fact, with the date, so you know if you need to check up on it. Because I still have SO MUCH STORY to go, I'll post the first three chapters now, because I feel safe that they won't change. After that I will post a chapter every other day. When I finish, I'll post the rest of it at once. Okay, so, not that I have written a novella here, I will start posting the novel. To my returning readers, I love you all, so fucking much!Complete

Villaness: Born Again
I opened my eyes and found myself in a dark place. "What is this, heaven?" I muttered. "Hello, God, are you there?" Then I saw a light and heard a voice-a woman was wailing and cursing and pulling a man's hair. Another lady was urging her, "My lady, push a little more!" I slipped over a slippery passage and boom-someone caught my head. I tried to thank the lady who caught me, but all that came out was a loud "wah wah" sound. Oh God, I felt dizzy again and dozed off. When I woke up, I realized I was no longer Lily Mortega. Just like in those transmigration novels, I had been reborn as Autumn Calla Parker a villaness in a novel "your love: bright as a sun". Great, now I just need to avoid the male and female leads or kill them both along with the capture targets and unravel whatever mysteries this new life throws at me!
Forced to Raise Yanderes for a Living
After enduring years of pain as a consequence of being confined by my Yandere stepbrother, I was finally freed from my misery by an unfortunate house fire. Since the goddess of the afterlife pitied me she gave me the opportunity to start anew through the means of transmigration. In short, I must mould each universe's capture targets into model citizens. Seeing as I'll be reborn as a mob character I shouldn't have to worry too much about growing attached to any of these capture targets either. A task like this should be manageable for someone like me who wishes to simply blend into the background. The quicker I finish my missions, the quicker I'll get to retire to a world with the happy ending I've always wanted. What more could a girl want? But wait. You're just now telling me that all of the capture targets have the potential to turn into Yanderes too? Not only that, but my stepbrother will be transmigrating into the same worlds as me too??? On second thoughts, I'd rather kiss my happy ending goodbye and stay dead instead!

I close my eyes. I'm not going to die. I'm not going to die. Suddenly, I feel my stomach drop and my head start to spin. I try to scream, but nothing comes out. I try to breathe, but my mouth is dry.

The Darkness in the Light
For over a hundred years, humanity has lived in fear of the monsters that roam the streets, lurking in the drains below. Women and their daughters hide, protected in their homes, while men take their sons through the world, teaching them the responsibilities of having a family to feed and dangers to avoid. No one leaves the home unless it's essential, and most of the world prefers it that way. Until one girl spends her days perched on her window seat, looking down at the world below and dreaming of a different life. Her eyes are always drawn to the dark, ominous drains in the street, the ones that often blink open to swallow and person whole. One day, that person is her little brother, snatched right in front of her from their arms of their father and gone forever. When a person is snatched, they never return, and life goes on without them. But she can't accept that. Breaking all the rules, all the things she's ever known, she braves the world outside her little townhouse and goes on a mission into the darkness to find her brother. Only, it's soon her that becomes the one lost to the drains. To survive she must rediscover her world, and in the process, rediscover herself. She will be reunited with old friends, gain new ones, find out deeper secrets about her past than she ever could have imagined, and learn that the world is even more corrupt than she always thought. *** This story contains sexist ideology, mention of cheating, some gruesome scenes, and a whole lot of monsters and darkness. It isn't overly mature... there isn't much explicit language or sexual scenes, but there is a bit of violence, so just keep that in mind... and despite all that negativity, ENJOY!Complete
