ABC kiss me by CharlieClements2

"...I don't want to be with you", I sigh and even though I am crying, they are not tears of sadness, but relief. "What do you mean?". "I DO NOT LOVE YOU AND NEVER WILL!", I cried. "But I want to be with you. I want to have kids. I want to rule the omniverse by your side. I want you". "I'm sorry, but I don't. The voice in my head says no". "You are dumping me based on a voice in your head?". "I am dumping you based on what I believe. You are my best friend and that's all I want". "But babe..." "Don't Babe me. I love you as a friend", I shout. Those words stung like a hot knife through his heart. I turn to the other hunky beast, his eyes hopeful... Trigger warnings Sexual content Coarse language

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐋𝐨𝐨𝐩 𝐎𝐟 𝐏𝐞𝐭𝐫𝐚 by Ryjeh_Julen

I'm Nathen Skiroe (I'm not the main character or the narrator); no, this tale is not about me. I'm that side character no one cares about; I was that ordinary guy who loved being in his own skin. I had good friends and no trauma (I even have a girlfriend) until the evening of the day prior to the first day of my senior year, and the first day itself started looping. Sounds cliché, like an old fable, and it's already happened in the movies, right? ... Six of us got stuck in this manhole, one of us could regenerate, and the rest of us, including myself, would die if killed and bleed if scathed. Only 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗮 𝗗𝗮𝘃𝗶𝘀 could regenerate. 𝗞𝗲𝗹𝘆𝗻𝗲𝗻 𝗬𝗶𝗹𝗱𝗿𝗮𝘀 was our hope, the leader, our friend, and the main character on the edge. Fin and Tris were our emotional support. My girlfriend Arnelia... Unfortunately, I got stuck, and fortunately, I'm with her. We were the six. And there wasn't a single problem. There were problems. One-the loop we got stuck in Two-Matt Wyljac's death Three-The deal I and Arnelia made with Kelynen's worst enemy... Four- Kelynen's obsession with the 'K' room But I would often wonder... Why Kelynen dealt with things alone... Nothing strange with him, but... You will never get to know some things until you force them out of his mouth. It was on one instance that I learned we had more than four problems. I would have expected the twist if I were watching a movie, but... I didn't because it was my real life, and even if somebody had warned me, I would have thought "No way that's gon' happen." But don't think you could see it coming. Psst I forgot... Welcome to Petra. Petra?... The school. Again: Don't believe everything Kelynen Yildras ever says to you... He is a good liar, I'm a better liar and I've had a good experience with that. Again and again: I'm a better liar than him.

Meanwhile, strangers become friends and fates become intertwined. One the operating table Toni, seemingly a nobody, is brutally violated.

We Who Burn by LanvanyaSinha

Raised as a weapon, trusts not even herself. Haunted by memories, struggles to summon courage. Fueled by rage, destructive power barely controlled. Silenced by past, seeks justice through truth. Guilt-ridden, uses voice to spark rebellion. Five strangers broken before they understood it, bound not by fate, but by trauma- and the dangerous whispers of experiments that should never have existed. They fight to survive in a world that has taken everything from them, balancing vengeance, empathy, and the desire for justice. Some seek to heal, some to destroy, and some to uncover truths buried deep beneath lies. Together, they are fractured, haunted, and hunted. Together, they might burn the system to ashes- or be consumed by it first.

The Devil's Island by lifesimperfection

Are we silenced? by lukascurucao0310

In a world where silence is survival, love becomes the loudest crime. Lucía was born into obedience - a dutiful Listener, trained to watch, report, and erase. But when her path crosses with V, a ghost of rebellion wrapped in shadows and secrets, everything fractures. What begins as surveillance turns into obsession, then something far more dangerous: trust. As the Concordat tightens its grip and public executions become theater, Lucía is faced with an impossible truth. Her silence has condemned an innocent woman to die. Her loyalty is a lie. And the girl she was supposed to expose is the only person who's ever truly seen her. In the ruins of a fallen resistance, something feral and fragile begins to bloom. But in a city wired with eyes and ears, every stolen moment comes with a price. Are We Silenced? is a raw, atmospheric descent into love under tyranny - and a defiant scream in a world that punishes those who dare to feel. The first book in The Unquiet Chronicles trilogy

AbOMINATION (The Remnants Saga, Book 1) by wallf_

They were born different. They were told they were wrong. Science calls them Aberrations. The government calls them Abominations. To the world, they're monsters blamed for its collapse. Hunted. Culled. Dissected. Erased. But in a fight for memory, identity, and survival, what happens when the only way to live... is to become exactly what they fear?

The Root Of Magic by BrucejordanAnderson

Two nations locked in a three century long struggle for dominance in which neither side showed any sign of giving in. That was until one nation conceived of a weapon that would have dire consequences for the world. The supersoldiers known only as "Mages." The war is won and the people can now at last live in peace. Or at least that is how it should have been... Mages have been condemned as they have been deemed too powerful by "the Council." Inquisitors have been sent out to find any who remain and their orders are clear. Subjugation or destruction. Countless lives have been taken. Families torn apart. Freedom sounds like a distant dream. Yet one person may yet have the power to save the world. Or destroy it.
