The year is 2113, and almost all the world's problems have been single-handedly solved with a shocking breakthrough - of how to store and transfer souls. At a certain price, anybody can buy a prolonged life, or a never-hungering body, or eternal happiness.
However, despite the prosperity of the world as a whole, only a few rich enough can afford extra souls for themselves. And Owen Milano, left with nothing but a bare minimum of resources and his young daughter, can only dream of such things.
Owen is stricken to discover that his daughter has fallen to a disease that will kill her in a short period of time. Not willing to lose anything more, Owen sees no other choice but to steal a soul to preserve his daughter's life. But it appears that the souls have a much darker truth behind it...

Caught between following her saviour's alluring words and hearing the concerned boy who's speaking of freedom, she has to choose, quickly. Make a choice before things escalate to a point... "ALEXA!" She whips around and her eyes go wide with terror. ...of no return. Warning: The WHOLE story MAY be triggersome.

Our Silent Vows
She was mine long before she knew it. I had been raised in shadows, in a world where power was survival and choice was an illusion. But then there was her. She slipped into my life unexpectedly and defiantly, her eyes too bright for a town like this one. She was unafraid of what lay beneath the surface, thinking she could walk away and resist the pull. But every step she took only bound her tighter to me. She was delicate but stubborn, fierce enough to face what others ran from, even if she didn't fully see it yet. She was the only thing I had ever chosen. I would break anything to keep her, everything, even her illusions of freedom. Because in a world that offered no choices, she became my one certainty. I will carve that truth into the world, with blood, if I have to. R.

The Quiet Captive (Completed)
In the shadows of a brutal mafia empire, power is absolute and mercy is rare. Alessia Vale, a cold and untouchable mafia boss, runs the underworld with iron precision-until the night she acquires a silent slave from an illegal auction. The girl, nameless and unflinching, is unlike any Alessia has ever seen. Obedient, yes-but not broken. There's defiance in her stillness, hunger behind her eyes. Alessia brings her home, not out of desire, but curiosity. Control. Yet what begins as a transaction quickly spirals into obsession. The slave watches. Learns. Lurks like a phantom in the boss's life, inching closer to something dangerous-intimacy. Who's the captor? Who's the captive? And when love grows in the darkest corners, what will be left when the chains fall away?

The Suicide Notebook
"Make sure you are something before you fade to nothing," is a statement that Lucky takes to heart. At Bayridge High, a prestigious boarding school on the east coast of the U.S.A., they have a legend. A legend of tortured teens, and lost souls, a legend of tragedy. Bayridge has the highest suicide rate of the country, and one of the highest cumulative GPA's. Every cautionary tale, every kid who died young in that school kept a record in the suicide notebook. Detailing their thoughts, their feelings, their everyday lives until their lives were history. And Lucky knows he's next. He finds the notebook from subtle clues dropped by a mysterious upperclassman. He expects to find stories, beautiful and tragic in their nature. What he finds is so much more. A note: This story is labeled as sci-fi. I swear most of the weird things and things that seem slightly off around lucky will be scientifically fictionally explained. It becomes very very sci fi when the huge gigantic plot twist occurs.

Virulent
[ONC 2023 SECOND PLACE WINNER | AMBASSADORS PICK 2023] An unwilling but gifted geneticist must find a way to safeguard humanity against the deadly pathogen she's forced to design or die trying. *** The planet's population is pushing past 11 billion and counting. With resources spread thin, widespread famine, and health systems crippled everywhere, the governments of the world are running out of ideas. Then a scientist proposes a controversial solution and the classified Project Rescue is born. But when the lead scientist on the project and his entire team mysteriously die, his young microbiology prodigy is brought into the secret government agency to take over where he left off. Ezra Mayur always hoped that her brilliance in pathogen studies would land her a secure job one day. This seems like a dream come true. Full food rations and safety for her struggling family, and a job in the field she is the most interested in. But the project is not quite what Ezra expected and her moral compass is tested when she has to choose between protecting her family or the world. *** PROMPTS that will make an appearance: 12. An evil sorcerer offers you an immense amount of power--but it comes with a price. (Modified: an evil corp offers you an opportunity of a lifetime, but it comes with a price.) 5.
