The art of deception consistently yields negative consequences... and is infinitely destructive when directed toward the purity of an individual's own identity. 

This is the complex reality (Lieutenant Colonel R11-2) Adrian Wells, unfortunately, finds himself locked into. 

Sixteen and ambitious... The boy discovered sanctuary and unrivaled success while interchanging between two conflicting positions.

He is the (secretive) frontrunner of the Centrailian rebellion, and combat pilot associated with the Imperial Black Heart squadron.

But what will occur when his two adverse paths ultimately collide?
An abrupt mission to uncover the Imperial airship Steel Stead aligns the teen's fate... if he can survive the encounter!

A 2019 Wattys entry deeply into climate change, global warming, and environmental destruction, especially the nuclear kind! A lot of true facts are embedded in this story which has both true and fictional characters. Who is to be believed is for you to decide. The chapters are many but many are short. Still, it is a full-sized novel with promise for future adventures. Plot: An international crew of scientists board a large state-of -the art oceanographic vessel privately funded by an anonymous source. The itinerary is to travel down the west coast of the Americas and travel the South Pacific to Antarctica. The team plans to visit many known sites of hydrothermal vents using a device called the MAPR, searching vents for a bacterium that seems promising in use as a way to fight carbon dioxide emissions. But one of the two junior scientists on the team soon realizes that secrets are being kept, and makes promises to keep some, while learning that some onboard have entirely different agendas. To complicate matters, this junior scientist's desire for a special friendship grows in intensity, just as mysterious murmurings and strange sightings intensify. And then, the ship experiences a sequence of events that will draw world attention and leave all of us with more questions than answers. "If there is magic on this planet, it is contained in water."

Book I of the Resurgence Saga. "Today is the one opportunity you beseech your gods for. A chance at freedom becoming more than an illusion!" A game of shadows and lies is played as a ship heads for a solitary world, a certain raven-haired god is broken and left with only a single name as a memory, and a mad ruler prepares a deadly tournament for his own sick enjoyment. Each of these truths stand alone, but in the battle for the universe, there is seldom a causeless action taken. A mysterious foe lingers in the mind of the fallen, sentient powers awaken, and the truth the universe tried to hide will come to light. What happened in the time known as the 'before' and why does it seem no one is willing to break their vow of silence? Praise for Resurgence: "Absolutely brilliant!

The Silver Seer by Flickerstar
46 parts Complete Mature
Russia declares they will go to war with Switzerland if they do not receive who they call "The Silver Seer"- a person who can see the deaths of others just moments before their demise and prevent it, only recognizable by the color of their blood: silver. It is up to one young man to either rally the nation together to fight the war or surrender and end it before it begins. --- Felix Adelric is Russia's target. Though he serves as the Army General of Switzerland, he actively tries to deny and lie about his past where his father, the Grand Marshal of the Russian Federation, abused and tortured him upon learning of his ability. His only wish is to protect the officers serving under him, but once his past begins to conflict with that desire, he debates if keeping secrets is doing more harm than good. Reko Erkki is a mechanical soldier from Finland who was saved by Felix after Russia invaded Finland, slaughtering nearly all of the mechanical beings. He vows to do everything and anything for his captain, yet finds his life is soon threatened by a mysterious outsider. Reyes Theodor has been traveling Europe ever since his parents were killed by who he swears is a mechanical soldier. Yet when he meets Reko and nearly kills him, he learns that he is not who the teenager is looking for. So, using the upcoming war as a distraction, Reyes sets out to find the person who murdered his parents and avenge them, once and for all. Coming together, Felix, Reko, and Reyes must battle both external and internal forces that threaten to tear the Swiss military apart, while also searching for the truth behind their many questions. Yet as the war looms on the horizon, surrendering may be the only thing they can do...if they're willing to go that far.

Irresistible Deception by Moonlighton245
100 parts Complete Mature
Deception is an irresistible thing. It shows you how far you're willing to go to get what you want. It shows you what you want to see, but in the end; it leaves you with nothing to hold. An illusion to take pleasure in but make you question reality itself. BLAIR ANDERSON is quite a...strange girl. Despite the mistreatment and emotional neglect from her parents, she believes that deep inside everyone, there's always good. Because of her too trusting nature and her desire for love and affection she never received, it may lead to her ruination when she meets AMEO ADLER, who can be too...calm in frightening situations, for a lack of a better word. He's someone with an insatiable, dangerous appetite that he tries to hide from her. He would go lengths to prove to her how much she means to him, but to what extreme will he do that? Should there be a limit until it's becomes destructive? She will quickly realise that Ameo isn't what he deems himself to be; whether it's a good or a bad thing. She will soon learn that there's a frail, delicate line between protective and possessive; attraction and obsession; the admiration for someone and the desire to own one's being. She will later understand that not everyone who saves you is your guardian angel; and that sometimes, the devil does the saving instead. What happens when he enters her heart bit by bit? And after she falls into his love trap, perfectly made for her, will everything change? Just what could ever go wrong when a fiery rendezvous ignites between a gullible woman and an artful man? Nothing. Right? *Disclaimer! MATURE Content* Read this with caution, as it might be too much for some readers.
