Book Two of the Eximius Series: A World of Shadows
Sequel to 'The Animal Inside'
* * * * *
After the incident at the World Super's Unit, Kefira has to go back to her normal life; her friends, her family, even her old school. But, as soon as things are back to (almost) normal, Adrian and Kody are back to pull her back into the Super world, along with a few old friends.
There is a threat on the horizon. A protest group are calling for the Hero System, which protects the city from Villains, to be disbanded, and Supers aren't the most popular topic at Kefira's school either.
With danger, mystery and conflict coming from every angle, Kefira must learn to live in a deceitful world; a world of shadows.

Minion
Minion is a regular guy: he's got a wife, a kid, and an app ruined his career as a henchman. Being a villain's sidekick used to be a good job: risky, sure, but well-paying and with top-notch life insurance. But Henchr has brought the tech revolution to the supervillain business. Now it's uncertain schedules and no worker's comp. No villain is evil enough to have dreamt up the gig economy. After one too many jobs gone wrong, Minion decides to retire. This is fine. His self-worth isn't tied to his job. But it is a little humiliating when his wife starts talking about going back to work as the supervillain Dominatrix, a career she retired from a decade ago. And now their daughter is dating a girl that Minion suspects goes out at night in a mask - as a hero, no less. Only a supervillain can sort out Minion's problems, but he can't ask his wife when she's, well, part of the problem. There's only one thing to do: it's time for Minion to become Villain.

How To Ruin A City
Who said heroes and villains couldn't offer each other mutual benefits? In a region run by supers, Nic is a crooked superhero only in it for the money while Catalina wants to do whatever it takes to label herself as a villain. Their conflict was inevitable, but dirty minds think alike. The duo form an alliance in order to con the biggest hero organization in the city, The Vigilante Assistance Hotline, hoping to make some extra cash on the side while never having to do any real work. But TVAH isn't what it seems. With corruption already running rampant throughout the company, Nic and Catalina are forced to step up to play hero in order to save their city from a group hellbent on hunting down supers just like them. -- "I get paid every time I fight a villain, even if I don't apprehend you." "So...If I got away and we fought again, you'd get paid even more than you would tonight, right?" His eyes lit up as he understood my train of though. With a smirk, he said, "I like the way you think." -- (TAKE NOTE THAT THIS BOOK TAKES PLACE A LITTLE OVER TWO YEARS AFTER THE BEST INTENTIONS BUT IT IS NOT THE SEQUEL TO IT.) -- #1 in supervillain on May 15th, 2021 #1 in cryokinesis on September 1st, 2019 #1 in pyrokinesis on May 29th, 2021Complete
What A Lovely Night
|BOOK 1 IN "WHAT A LOVELY SERIES"| Centuries into the future, earth's humans have changed. After a newly awakened dominant genome triggered the new arrival of superpowers, earth's inhabitants finally became super like their predecessors could have only dreamed of being. With now 50% of the population possessing some kind of power, the earth runs rampant with heroes and villains. And what better to train new aspiring heroes, than thriving hero schools. And better yet, the best one across the world, the Metropolis Hero Academy. Lilith Ito is a rather odd case. With a rather dark past that left Lilith both with no memory of the event and an unclassified type of Dissociative Identity Disorder, Lilith's home life had always been less than perfect. But as she began to acquire powers and a mentor with a similar ability, Lilith began to do something for herself, even without the intentions of a hero. But after her mentor was killed in action, Lilith finally takes one more selfish step and gets into M.H. Academy based on her dead mentor's recommendation letter. But keeping her past from her new classmates is hard. From new friends that Lilith doesn't want to scare away to a boy that somehow has captured her heart, Lilith has got her hands full. And as a hidden evil begins to arise from the shadows, Lilith will have to tackle her new life as a hero student with a clear conviction of whom she wants to be and what she'll sacrifice to get there. But dear reader, you must always remember: Evil still lurks around the corner. TO COMPLY WITH WATTPAD GUIDELINES, THE FOLLOWING BOOK HAS BEEN MARKED AS MATURE FOR ITS GRAPHIC VIOLENCE. READER DISCRETION IS ADVISED.Complete

With an anonymous president and hostile community, Veera relishes her moonlit activities as Void, the shadow villain. Emotionally terrorizing her victims in hopes that they change their ways, Veera lives by burying her feelings and being what society wants her to be - teacher by day, vigilante, or villain, as the world calls her - by night. But with every villain, there's a hero and the hero to Veera's villain persona calls himself Spotlight. Their battles could rival the squabbling of a newly married couple, yet both Void and Spotlight are nothing near being a couple. They're strangers, enemies - people on different sides of the law. That changes, though, when a picture with no context is released to the public, sparking a worldwide debate about the relationship between Void and Spotlight. And as if that wasn't bad enough, there's a new hero in town - Infinite. To Void, he's nothing more than another nuisance, but to Spotlight, he's a mystery; an enemy. When havoc falls onto the city and eerily corresponds with Infinite's arrival, Spotlight, and Void have to put all feelings aside to solve the mystery that digs so deep in the past that they may never recover from it. ~*~ Featured on @antiherosgalore "Wicked Women": 12/19/22 Featured on @crime "Like a Woman": 5/28/23 Featured on @superheroes "Anti-Heroes and Awesome AntagoniComplete
