It is now the 22th Century and the year is 2112. Times are extremely different from the 21st Century. Now, the world is divided into only four continents- and Alara Berrera resides in Excidium.

In Excidium, children are kidnapped from the low-class families who live in the rural areas. This is done to 're-populate' the upper-class families of Excidium- as well as the Governors, who rule this particular country. At age eight, Alara Berrera witnessed the kidnapping of her brother who was kidnapped by the Amorals. After the traumatic incident, her mother fell ill and the Berrera family collapsed.

The Amorals are a group of people working for the Governors- the ruling party in Excidium- and do their dirty work for them, such as kidnapping young children from poor Exicidiums.

Ever since that fateful day, Alara is determined to fight against them as she believes that she will have a better life once that is accomplished. However, what will Alara do to get what she wants, and what will it cost her? What secrets would she uncover as she tries to reunite her family?

The Man Named Death ✔ by STESLARA
43 parts Complete Mature
"I don't know what I did to make you hate me, I haven't done anything to warrant how you ignore me! Please, just tell me!" "I'm in love with you, damn it!" He roars. "I love you so much Aphrodite, and you scare me because you are so strong and I don't want to be the one to break you!" * Aphrodite Muerte is hiding something and so is her long term crush Thanatos Amaro. Both are helplessly in love with one another and both have very different approaches on how to hide it. Love makes you do crazy things and with Aphrodite and Thanatos, it's no different. Pretending to hate Aphrodite, Thanatos manages to hide his true feelings which takes a toll on both of them. Thanatos has no idea what he's doing. Past trauma rules over Aphrodite at night causing nightmares and panic during the day. Aphrodite has no idea how to live life outside of pain. Abuse has a way of shaping people, and she's barely mended from being so broken. Both have friends that force them closer but their love might just be the reason why they end up staying together. Afterall, someone can only stay away from the person they're in love with for so long. One argument and a couple of confessions later leaves them on a confusing path that has the opportunity to be beautiful or disastrous. Love is magical but it is also savage. For Aphrodite and Thanatos, they are each other's downfalls and each others saviors. How long they last is up to them. How much they go through to get together is up to fate. In the end, will they make it or will their love end in splinters and heartache? * WARNING: Mature Content (of all sorts).

46 parts Ongoing Mature
Sapphire always felt like she was missing a big part of her life not knowing anything about her birth father. Tragedy strikes and her whole world comes crashing down around her. What she thought she knew is turned upside down, shattering her into a million pieces. Can she rebuild her life now that the truth has been revealed? Sapphire's 18th birthday is approaching fast, and she can't wait to meet her wolf for the first time and hopefully meet her mate. But nobody could foresee the events that transpire when she finally does. I have put trigger warnings at the beginning of the chapter, that have violence and smut. You can skip those chapters and carry on to the next one. Shattered Pieces will be updated once a week. This story is nearly complete on my computer. ############################################################################### This is the first story that I have ever written. I look forward to your comments, but please be kind. It is not perfect. All negative comments will be deleted. The idea of this story came to me when New Zealand went into Lockdown due to Cover 19. While the rest of the country had to stay at home, the few of us who were classified as essential workers kept the country running. This story helped me cope with the added stress of all the restrictions in place. Enjoy, and please don't forget to vote and leave comments. This story is completely my idea, so NO copying it onto any other platform. A big shout out to my friend, who has been with me the whole way and has encouraged me to carry on with the story when I nearly gave up on it. @DrWhoEmily No 1 # Worrior
