Beneath The Last Light
In the dying city of Gravelight, hope is a dangerous thing. Walled in by fear and control, its people live under constant surveillance, tested, sorted, and discarded when deemed unfit. Beyond those walls lies only the wasteland - the Dead Zones - where monsters and myths are said to roam. No one who's taken ever returns. Seventeen-year-old Avalon Thorne has learned the rules: stay invisible, stay alive, don't ask questions. But when she and her closest friend, Fox, see smoke rising from far beyond the wall - where nothing should burn - something shifts. It's small, fleeting, but undeniable. Proof that maybe the world isn't as dead as they've been told. Soon Avalon, Fox, and their friends - the troublemaking twins Reggie and Riggs, and the quiet, brilliant Kendrick - find themselves tangled in the cracks of a system built on silence and fear. The more they uncover, the harder it becomes to look away... and the more dangerous it is to know the truth. Because in Gravelight, ignorance is survival. And rebellion begins with a single question: What really lies beyond the last light?
Gold Fever (M×M) ✔
"We caused the end of the world. Turns out it's easier than you might think it is. All you need is a group of eco anarchists and an ounce of magic, and the world goes down in a poof." After another manic episode, Phoenix gets written off his parents' will, and he's trying to find a reason to keep living. Causing the end of the world and being the only one who can save the world wasn't exactly what he had in mind. Phoenix wasn't meant to have magical abilities, and he most definitely shouldn't have been able to make all the money in the world disappear just by thinking about it. To make matters worse, it came with a minor side effect: a disease called Gold fever. In other words, people started to turn into gold. Over the course of a single day, Phoenix becomes the most hated person in the world. As the economy collapses around them, only three of his friends are willing to stay by his side. Their job is to keep Phoenix alive while he tries to make money reappear and find a cure to Gold fever. Which turns out to be more challenging than they thought, as they find out someone is tailing Phoenix with the intention to kill.Complete

THE UNWORTHY RIDER⚔️
Once, Aurish was a land of unmatched beauty and prosperity, where dragons soared freely and the people lived in harmony with nature. But their arrogance believing themselves divine led to their downfall. The gods sent a plague that turned the infected into savage, soul-eating monsters. The kingdom fell, and the dragons, once revered, disappeared. As the plague spread beyond Aurish, neighboring kingdoms fell one by one each succumbing to the relentless tide of horror. In a desperate bid to survive, the nine kingdoms united to form the Xandorian Empire. Despite their differences, they were bound by a single purpose: to fight the growing darkness. In this new empire, every teenager reaching seventeen is conscripted to fight. Their paths as either warriors, scribes, or dragon riders chosen for them by fate. Amidst the chaos and despair, hope flickered in the heart of the Xandorian Empire, like a candle in the dark, waiting to be ignited by the courage of its people or maybe just a white haired boy. ____________________________________________ ~Any bad comment will be taken down. ~I do not own any of the pictures in this story and got them all from Pinterest. ~This is a BL.
