Chase "Numbers" Hewkin is the textbook definition of a high school loser: hopelessly introverted, a genius at math, and fanboy-obsessed with Juliana VanderSchee, the teenage crown princess of the tiny European country of Arcana and a fellow math prodigy. What distinguishes him from the rest of the geeks in the world is quite simple: he can tell you the exact probability that any event whatsoever will occur... down to the nearest hundredth of a percent.
When Princess Juliana is announced as the keynote speaker at a STEM convention not far from Chase's hometown, he has his heart set on attending. No sooner than he leaves for the convention, his parents are abducted by a probability-warping terrorist group known only as the Jackers. Blaming himself for not being there to protect them, he sets out on a mission to rescue them: a mission that will take him to the heart of the Order of Chance, the Arcanese organization headed by Juliana herself dedicated to stopping the Jackers. Discovering his own family's deep involvement in the Order, he is sucked deeper into the workings of the Arcanese court. When the shocking truth about the Jackers and their mindless victims, the "Jacked", is revealed, Chase must choose a side in the war that is inevitably coming: his heritage, or the world order Juliana and the Order of Chance have sacrificed everything to preserve.

A Beautiful Catastrophe - Book 1
If you're given a chance to live once more, will you take it? Even if... it comes at a cost? A dying woman reminisces on her short life and comes to regret not doing the things she likes - always sacrificing her own happiness for her family. On her deathbed, she whispers her wishes to a friend. "If only I could go back in time, I'll make sure to live my life for my sake and not somebody else's." Little did she know that her impossible wish would come true with the help of a mysterious woman. And in her second chance at life, she meets a certain problematic person... "Kaiden Ma" - a young and handsome genius who is also the richest heir in the East - has a little problem. One - he is way too grumpy; and two - he is mysophobic. With his family pushing him in a relationship, the problem escalated. For how can he possibly be in a relationship if he can't even touch anyone? Due to this, he is forced to look for a suitable "pretend" partner. "Senara Lee. I'd like to offer you a deal." "Hm? A deal? What deal?" "I need a fake girlfriend and you're the only one who's trustworthy enough to assume the position. Be my girlfriend for a year and I'll make one of your books into a movie." "For real?! You bet I'm in! Anything for my babies!" (babies - she's referring to her books, yes, she calls them her babies). And so, their hilarious and catastrophic game begins. Well, at least until the "Guardians of Fate" comes in. What will they do with this romance that wasn't supposed to be? And what is the cost of this new life she was given? 🌸 𝘼 𝘽𝙚𝙖𝙪𝙩𝙞𝙛𝙪𝙡 𝘾𝙖𝙩𝙖𝙨𝙩𝙧𝙤𝙥𝙝𝙚 𝙎𝙚𝙧𝙞𝙚𝙨 🌸 ✅ A Beautiful Catastrophe - Book 1 🟨 A Beautiful Catastrophe - Book 2 🟥 A Beautiful Catastrophe - Book 3 - 4Completa

Playing With Fire (Charlie Weasley X Reader)
Charlie X Reader, 'Playing With Fire' Book 1 (Series Completed) *** "Uh, yeah. I stopped going to classes a while back. Believe it or not, that's not good for the GPA. I had, like, a 26 average or something," I said like it wasn't a big deal. "Damn, that's not great," he admitted. He rounded the corner into Percy's room. I could hear Percy fighting with the twins in their room. "Why'd you do that?" he asked teasingly. "My dad died," I answered honestly. "Oh, shit. I'm sorry," he said and his face dropped. "It's alright," I dismissed. "Seriously, stop looking at me like that." "I can't help it," he said. "You're making it worse. You look like a wounded puppy," I whined. "Don't be like everyone else. I'm sick of people treating me differently because of this whole thing. Treat me normally." "You mean, like flirt with you a little bit?" "Well, I, uh," I stuttered. He grinned at me. "You're blushing." *** Seventh-year Y/N Y/L/N is what the professors would call a prime example of wasted potential, with an impressively bad 26% average. As far as she's concerned, she is past academic redemption. However, Dumbledore and McGonagall decide to introduce a new opportunity for struggling students, a scholarship that covers a trip abroad. Y/N is desperately in need of this scholarship if she wants to graduate from Hogwarts, but she is struggling through more than anyone knows. The only thing that is keeping her going is the family she's found with the Weasleys. They're an odd bunch and that's exactly why she fits in. Because she doesn't. Things are simple with the Weasley family. That is until she crosses a line with one of the Weasley boys, a path that can never be retraced. Y/N finds herself trapped in a web of lies that she had created. One spark and everything she has worked for could be gone in an instant. And she's playing with fire.

The Suit War
**This was a Featured Wattpad Story** One, two, three, four; I declare a suit war. In a parallel universe known as Drac, the four kingdoms (called suits) have been at war for centuries. Each suit (Spades, Clubs, Diamonds, and Hearts) is made up of a playing card hierarchy that is ruled by the King, Queen, and Jack, and every subject is born with their suit and number imprinted on the back of their neck. The number (a rounded-up average of their parents' numbers that is between two and ten) is based off their ancestors' loyalty to the Crown. There is, however, one randomly selected person in each suit that is born with an A (the symbol of the Ace) on their neck, making them the societal outcast. It is forbidden for the four aces of Drac to ever come together, because there is a myth that if all four of them join hands, they can set off an explosion that will kill all living beings except for themselves. Regardless, the Ace of Hearts, thirteen-year-old Celia Rumer, decides to try her luck in rallying the aces together after the King of Hearts suddenly commits suicide. She hopes that the threat of the four aces banding together will bring an end to the suit war, but will she be able to find the other aces without facing dire consequences of breaking the law? © Copyright - 2016 - All rights reserved.
