Six stories. Six situations. Six dark secrets.
Colorful casts. Captivating worlds. Crazy conclusions.
Humanity rises and falls. Some folks set the world on fire, others burn, many don't care what they do as long as something more powerful tells them what's right or wrong. The question is whether it is in our nature to defy our nature, whether it is a good thing, or whether we should know when to stop...
Available stories include:
* DUPES: Clones vs. cannibals: who will win?!
* THE DEUS ISLANDS: A prison ship on its way to a penal colony is jeopardized by the presence of a sinister supernatural entity.
* SEEKING SENSATION (ONGOING): A young woman searching for her missing sister becomes acquainted with (and suspicious of) the charismatic employee of a social media platform that allows users to relive other people's memories.
If you are a fan of dark sci-fi anthologies such as Black Mirror and Love Death + Robots, then this is the book for you!

Post Plague Kidnapping - Published!
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. Warning: Contains sex, some violence, occasional foul language, and adult issues. Genre: Science Fiction, Romance, Post-apocalyptic, Dark romance Length: 84,468 words This book has been published on Amazon. The first ten chapters will be updated to what you get in the published novel and will remain here, so you can try before you buy.Concluida

I Still Feel Alive|| An MHA x FNAF Crossover Fanfiction
The more I feel the pain, the more I feel alive. It might sound crazy, but as a ghost still living in this world, I seek the reasons why I'm still lingering around. They call it human instincts, but I don't think it is. I have no will to live on, yet I have the obsession to do so. I wonder what you call this? -this is also a mix of many different Deku aus so if it sounds familiar, maybe I picked it up on the way to make this story |=]WARNINGS[=| -gore, angst, violence, death and murder -mentions of manipulation and other psychological damages -broken humor -I tried to make sense of fnaf lore and slapped it in with mha story so it has world building -no ships bc I don't like shipping anyone anyway -still in beta PROCEED WITH YOUR OWN RISKS
F.R.E.A.K.S. - short story collection (eventually) | 18+, BDSMish
Welcome to my Facility for Research into Erotica And Kinky Stuff. This will be a collection of somewhat experimental stories that were born from my growing awareness that I'm really bad at writing smut ( and descriptions in general, and emotions, but... baby steps.) Don't expect wall-to-wall sex, though; that wouldn't be literature, just a regular WFH Tuesday. These are still going to be actual stories with an actual plot - in some cases, even a good one, if I pull it off. Just that each time my instinct will tell me to cut, go roundabout, or fade to black, I'll force myself to lean in instead, and may fate have mercy on us all. Currently, I have: Haute Cuisine -- A full of twists, dystopian, cyberpunk-lite story about what is scarier, high-tech cannibalism or late-stage capitalism. And it's all just one date night. NOW PUBLISHED STANDALONE, CHECK THAT ONE. Execution Device 14 -- don't read that one, it's nasty. The oldest story from my current bout of writing activity, and oh boy, it shows-pure erotic horror, distasteful and lacking any depth. Still pretty original, I think, something like a mix of J-horror, SCP, and weird porn. Bring eye bleach. Demographic Defence Corps: Inspection -- an extended middle chapter from a future novel about militarized breeding fetish, but the focus is not on abuse but being gaslighted into badassery. Think Starship Troopers, but with dicks instead of bugs. ....and that's all. But there will be more, some day. Please make sure to mind the individual preface pages with their warnings. Jokes aside, this is going to get rough. ----------- If you are reading this story on any other platform other than Wattpad you are very likely to be at risk of a malware attack.
