Maxwell McCollugh is a computer genius who works at a bread factory in 2579. The factory has robots controlling the cooking division of the factory and humans controlling the product line and several control rooms. Maxwell, however, created an Artificial Intelligence called ONI that has complete access to the entire factory, but only at his command. His job is to monitor ONI and make sure that she doesn't have any malfunctions, and, if she does, to make sure to fix them. But when Maxwell's life starts to unravel, ONI seems to become less like a creation, and more like a friend.

Mankinds last Silhouette
Empire. At the end only Empire remains. No matter how many times you rebel Empire remains. No matter how many times you fight for your democratic Empire remains. Now bend for your emperorr. Welcome readers to my fantasy world. I have brought you something beyond the constraints of my imagination, and I wonder if many are ready for it; however, a good story must be told, and I am fortunate to be the one to tell it. Imagine a world where the vile nature of mankind creeps its ugly head as humanity faces its first and last major catastrophe. The world plunged into everlasting darkness, entrenched in chaos and disorder, where hope is a distant flitting memory. The story I propose to my fellow readers follows Anthony Verdun, who was only a boy when all he knew was taken from him in an instant. Like many others, on that day, those who survived lost a part of themselves, forever scarred by the family, friends, and loved ones they lost. Their lives changed forever; how could it not? I welcome you to join the world I have created, indulge in this hypothetical, and dive into this what-if. What that is, well, you would have to read to find out. Weekly chapter uploads, so stay vigilant. Here is the link to the community discord, where we can discuss the book further.

CAPTURED BY HIM (Book I: Captured series)
UPDATE!! BOOK II: BOUND TO HIM IS NOW AVAILABLE!! NEW CHAPTER POSTED EVERY THURSDAY!!! *** It was supposed to be a simple trade off with her father but only it wasn't so simple. Not when they both were attracted to each other on levels they didn't understand. *** "What were you thinking was going to happen tonight?" I question, trying hard to conceal the surge of surprise she's brought on to me. She leans in closer to my face, her voice a seductive whisper "A one night stand". What the fuck? Is she trying to play some kind of a game with me? Because it's working, she keeps surprising me and I couldn't hate her more right now. My hand reaches out to grab her face, my cool skin feels uncomfortable over her warm cheeks. She leans into my touch, green eyes fixed on mine. "As much as I'd like to do that, I have an agenda for tonight" I pull my hand back unwillingly. "What agenda?" She looks at me as if I have grown another head. "I'm going to be honest here, I'm not taking you to have sex with you. This is a kidnapping" *** WARNING! CONTAINS STRONG LANGUAGE, SEX SCENES, VIOLENCE! READ AT YOUR OWN DISCRETION.Complete
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.

THE LAST DECISION
If you liked the story, please consider voting, commenting to keep me motivated ✌️. --------------------------------------------------------------------- In the near future, artificial intelligence has become the backbone of society. Five revolutionary AI models were created to enhance human life, pushing the boundaries of science, security, and governance. They were designed to be intelligent-but never too intelligent. For years, humanity thrived under their guidance, yet an unspoken fear remained: What happens if they become too aware? Now, as one of these AI models teeters on the brink of consciousness, both man and machine are forced to confront the same haunting question-why do we exist? As tensions rise and unseen forces pull the strings, the world stands at the edge of an irreversible transformation. The line between creator and creation is beginning to blur... and there may be no turning back. (Tags: Sci-Fi, Thriller, AI, Existential Mystery)
