[Wattpad Picks: Editor's Choice] A research team dedicated to advanced medical care is in the process of creating a bandage that seals and heals all injuries almost instantaneously. The catch? The bandage itself is a living organism that burrows inside of you. When the team's attempt to breed a new version of their bandage produces something unexpected, they go underground to protect their research. Now, they are on the hunt--for answers, for investors...and for test subjects.
Pearl is a fast-paced thriller with a dash of mystery that will develop into an action sci-fi/fantasy novel as it progresses. It contains scenes of gore, body horror, and some violence. Proceed with caution, and dive into the world of illegal research where morals are optional and curiosity turns to obsession.

People grow old here. No one leaves. Leaving isn't an option. Lately, though, people have been talking. Talk of the Outsiders is everywhere now. Golden-eyed, otherworldly beings, half rumor, half nightmare. They're said to lurk beyond the city walls, bending reality in ways people can't understand. SunTear soldiers insist they're dangerous and people believe them. But Silky doesn't know what's true. She's never seen an Outsider. But the stories keep changing, and none of them feel right. When a sudden discovery puts the most precious person in Silky's life in danger, everything snaps into focus. With time running out, Silky steals a SunTear uniform and steps into the heart of the city's protective force. She must blend in, survive, and uncover the truth before she is discovered.

You are one of a kind. Well, at least that's what your father said. Not in a good way tho. Ever since you were born to Earth, all of the blames was reserved for you and you only. Being a half-gem human or a half-hybrid wasn't as easy and amazing as what people thought. It only led you to pain and tortures. Your father wasn't amused when he found out that you are the one who killed his dear lovely wife by giving up your mother's gem just to have you. Your mother knew she would be gone as she was having you, and yet she didn't stop to have you born. After years go by, your father had enough of you and finally decided to get rid of you. By drowning. Yet you still alive and was living and surviving alone. Until you met a certain curly-haired boy that was called by the name of Steven Quartz Universe. This is not my first time writing so I bet that I could make the chapter as long as 1000+ words. This book also took before the movie started. This book also contained bruises, blood, injuries, torture, gore and etc. If you didn't feel comfortable reading, I am so sorry and please read the one-shot book that I will be making. Without further ado, let's begin the story and please do enjoy! P.S: I am veryy terrible on making descriptions. I assure you that the book is better than the summary! -- Steven Universe x Reader #1 in stevenuniversefuture - 8/3/2020 #1 in stevenuniversereader - 8/3/2020 #1 in quartz - 7/6/2020 #1 in steven - 26/9/2020 Started: 3/2/2020 Finish: 23/10/2021 100K - 28/4/2021Complete
The Rapture
Pearl Blankenship, an autistic investigative journalist, witnesses the end of the world. Before the nuclear fallout can kill her, a mysterious being offers her a choice: come with him or stay on a dying planet Earth. **** Dumuzi, the being who offered, is an Anunnaki: a descendant of humankind's ancient alien creators. It is his mission to wipe out what remains of humanity in a few short weeks, sparing only those with a thirst for knowledge and moral character. After becoming a journalist, Pearl was mocked online, arrested for trespassing, and challenged globally for her conspiracy theories. Two things she knows for a fact: mankind deserves a second chance, and staying on Earth sounds... well, hazardous. She hopes that by getting closer to Dumuzi, she might be able to change his mind about humanity, as he is a councilman with power. But it isn't going to be easy. Communicating? It's difficult for her. And he is cold, wary of humans, and has weeks left to live due to an illness that plagues him. The more time she spends with him, the more his illness accelerates, and the more steamy attractions ignite into something seriously dangerous. The clock is ticking.
