dark dictator dystopian future pain rebel rebellion romance

PREQUEL to Mostly Human and Fully Human (Although honestly, if you read the description and want to read it, it stands on it's own pretty well.)

Culver Morront never saw his life headed for the position of second in command to a ruthless and brutal woman heading a dictatorship. But his father had other plans for him, and so even when his morally grounded old school-mate Celeste leads a rebellion against him, Culver finds himself trapped in his dead-end job. To continue his ruling would be to lose any humanity he may have once had, but to defect means almost certain death. Will this young man raised in a loveless household learn what love is and to fight for what's right? Or will he take the more comfortable path and revel in his wealth and power, even at the expense of any and all human connection? 

Origins is a fast-paced story of humanity, friendship, and ultimately redemption. It is the last book in the Synecdoche Series.All Rights Reserved

Madeline by kanne53

As the fifth daughter of a man who only values sons, Madeline has grown up unloved, neglected, and forbidden from the one thing she loves. She never knew her mother and despises her father who views her as an inconvenience at best. As a little girl, she naively believed she'd be able to be free one day, but as she grows up, she realizes what a foolish hope that was. She reconciles herself to an unwanted marriage when her father decides it's time, consoling herself with the thought of at least being free of him eventually. But a marriage is not what her father has planned and little does Madeline know that marrying a stranger is not the worst path that can be chosen for her. When she learns that she is intended to become the prince's mistress, she thinks she'd rather die. Unfortunately if she doesn't comply, her father might just make that her alternative. **Part of the Rebellion series**

Post Plague Kidnapping - Published! by vblawnola

It's been five years since the plague struck. Leah knows there are other survivors, but she's avoiding them. She is doing just fine on her own. Surviving after everyone she knew died has made her physically strong and honed her intelligence, but she is emotionally devastated. There is nothing to fear if you don't make yourself emotionally vulnerable. James has spent the last five years helping to build up a colony of survivors. He believes in the small town they have populated and its mission to save humanity from extinction. He and his small team of men find scattered people and bring them in. Over the last two centuries, women have fought for and won more and more rights, gaining equality with men. Society, law, and technology bolsters and enforces these rights, but now they are gone. Women's equality with men is over. There are just too few of them. They aren't lesser but greater, more important, more valuable than men. Men are expendable. Men can stay outside alone if they like, but all women must be brought inside the safety of the Colony and properly taken care of. James has been searching the area Leah lives in. Her time of solitude is up. Leah sparks something in James he's never felt before. He's not letting this one get away, certainly not twice.

The Alpha's mate || #wattys2017 by catherineezzz

-- COMPLETED -- *** "You're the first ever future human Luna, love. I don't know whether my pack will accept you." *** Radiance Collins was not a believer of love. Her so called "parents" never exposed her to the love everyone deserves. One day, her "parents" were mysteriously murdered, and the case was eventually closed as an unsolved case. She never really had friends, because she always kept to herself, and always avoided trouble. Long story short, she moved in with Sarah, the woman who claims to be her biological aunt, after the death of her "parents" and goes into a entirely different town. But little does she know how close she was going to meet her destiny. Bentley Cole is a soon-to-be alpha of the Black Cole pack. Three years after his fifteenth birthday, he had yet to find his mate. Despite that, he never stopped looking for her, but you know, typical Alpha's and their needs. And then everything changes when they literally bump into each other. What happens when fate, or more specifically, Moon Goddess, pairs up these two? Secrets will start to unravel, Radiance would later on find out more about herself, and why she didn't react like a normal human being would, after she has been physically and mentally abused by her "parents". *** MAJOR WARNING : THE FIRST FEW CHAPTERS ARE PRETTY SHITTY BUT IT GETS BETTER, I PROMISE! I'D SAY THIS BOOK IS 35% CLICHE, 60% NOT CLICHE, 4%BAD GRAMMAR, 1% HORRIBLE SPELLING MISTAKES ( UPDATE -25/10/17- : THIS BOOK IS SO AMMATUR-ISH JESUS CHRIST!!! BUT IT'S THE VERY FIRST BOOK - WELL NOT REALLY, SINCE I RE-WROTE THE WHOLE BOOK - I'VE PUBLISHED, SO IT STAYS HERE!! JUST DON'T READ IF YOU THINK YOU CAN'T, I WON'T BLAME YOU :') )

The Metaphorical Key Book II- Forge the Path by AM-Morning

(If you haven't read the first book, stop here! Don't spoil yourself, the first book is also on my profile) The death of a friend can break a person, or reshape them. It could be the straw that broke the camel's back, or a motivator, a push in the right direction. Aiden isn't sure where he falls. All he knows is the guilt and the desire for vengeance. Maybe things could've been different if he hadn't made such a disastrous mistake. But then an opportunity arises for Aiden to learn more about his fallen comrade, to get to know him even beyond the grave. And like death, everything that follows could make or break the rebellion. Note: This story contains a subplot featuring a romance between two boys. It's presented as normal. If you have a problem with the lgbt+ community, then this isn't the book - or authour - for you. I'm a member of the community myself. Happy pride month! Spread love, not hate. <3

Daffodils and Hyacinths (Book 3 of the Forgotten Truths Series) by Contrastgaze

"One small incident can ruin or change a person's life - Now imagine a storm," Dusty winds spit at Sun'Tribe and her people. Cramped, multiple families are forced to huddle in one of the ruins; the only remaining proof of the original four tribes that used to stand. "Unifying us all is what should make us less insecure about ourselves, but our differences are what makes each one of us unique; special," In Sun'Tribe, everyone is the same. No traditions, no religion, no abilities, no culture, not even the way someone dresses themselves can be different. Dull, brown clothes, with hair cut down and pulled back in a simple manner. Difference is only for their Leader. The supreme ruler who never goes hungry, and lives in a large palace just for herself. It isn't until two lowly commoners take in the last of the outcasts, that their world sees a future of life again. ~*~ Written by the beas-TEAS, @EChO11111111111 (old acc: Echo__IsNoFurry) and @Ripplestream11 ; also credit to our friend who is not comfortable sharing her name (As of right now, Echo's account isn't working, AGAIN, so check both for updates) You don't have to read the other previous two books of this series to understand this book. "Forgotten Truths" is more of a backstory-based book, for the old tribes and some of the characters, which takes place a little over a decade before "Daffodils and Hyacinths", and the main details to understand this book are in "The Place where Dreams Fade," but if you're new, you should be caught up after reading 'TRIBES AND RULERS' and the Prologue. Updates might be a little irregular depending on our schedule We all hope you choose to give "Daffodils and Hyacinths" a go! NOTE: This book is not a fanfic, nor does it have any relation to "The Last Airbender" or "Legends of Korra". We definitely do see how it can be related to that, but we did not intend for that to be the outcome. Thank you!

The HellLands by Auiak_BW

This is a sequel to "Not Meant To Be\\Greamno Royalty AU//Platonic". If you have not read it, I strongly recommend reading it first before reading this, since this book is a sequel. There will be no smut. I am not forcing a ship on anyone. If any mcyt reads this and is uncomfortable with it I will take it down. I do not ship real people, just their Minecraft personas. I will be using their Minecraft names and ocs. This fanfic is all just for fun. Criticism is welcomed and encouraged! None of the art belongs to me. Very slow updates. TW//Blood, gore, injury, death, losing a loved one, panic attack, sharp objects, weapons CW//Mild cussing I will put a warning before the parts including those TWs and CWs. Ari wants to help the poor humans in the HermitLands. They are suffering so much, but she can't do anything.... until a strange human named Doc77 who is like Grian comes by the jungle and seeks out help from the Birds Of The Jungle. Xisuma and Etho are helping the rebellion with their powers and wits, but will it be enough to overcome a tyrant queen who rules with an iron fist over the HermitLands? Pax, Kenzo, Fennel, and Daphne ran away from the jungle out of curiosity to the HermitLands war. What will they do and what will happen to them? Leon is a spy for the rebellion. He is favored by many royals due to his laidback personality and good looks. He quickly gains information, but will he be able to find out secrets in the royal court?

Shattered Symmerty by Geminitea26

In Symmetria, a city obsessed with looking perfect while everything underneath is falling apart, the cracks are getting harder to ignore. The leaders? They're more focused on keeping their polished image intact than actually running the place. But chaos is brewing, and guess who's making a comeback? Ravi, the power-hungry dictator with a tighter grip on the city than ever. And trust me, things are about to get messy. Enter Sunaina, a sharp, determined force of nature, and her loyal (but definitely not boring) friends Jenna and Marcus. They're caught in the middle of all this chaos, trying to save Symmetria from Ravi's iron fist, while dealing with the fact that trust is about as rare as a flaw in this so-called perfect city. Betrayal? Oh, it's lurking in every corner, and hidden agendas? They're sprouting like weeds in a manicured garden. The trio needs to figure out who's on their side-and fast-because the clock is ticking. In this city, loyalty is more fickle than the weather, and ambition? Well, that'll lead you straight into disaster if you're not careful. With the cracks in Symmetria's perfect facade getting deeper by the day, the leaders will have to face not just Ravi but also the enemies within their own ranks. As everything unravels, one question remains: How far are they willing to go to protect their "perfect" city? And who can they actually trust when every choice could pull them deeper into chaos-or worse? Buckle up for a wild ride. Power, ambition, and loyalty are about to collide in ways no one saw coming. Because in Symmetria, nothing's as perfect as it seems, and every move could be their last.

The Pytfall by Gautamgullapalli

Note: this is the sequel to "The Flipsyde" Please read that book before proceeding to this. Left alone to face the world on his own, Marcus must find a way to survive..
