An Eluki citizen is willing to sacrifice anything for the well-being of the country. It was Eluki Code to sacrifice your privacy and, when it is necessary, your body for the nation. Anyone not willing to do so is worthy of investigation. Xander Long, a new Ini Soldier, is no longer willing to do so. The idea of lending personal data didn't bother him, but the promise of human "upgrades" from KaiHue Inc. and Ini Corps sparks his distrust.
As Xander crosses the line between dedicated patriot and country conspirator, the No Sleep Society mantra bangs in his ears.
No Sleep. Eyes Open.

"Neon Without Wires" Elisabeth Wissenfurth (Lizzy Wizzy) x female AU Story
In an alternate Night City, the infamous V never became a mercenary. Born in the blood-soaked alleys of Heywood's slums, V carries the raw grit of a Streetkid, but a rare genetic condition prevents her from ever receiving cybernetic implants - a cruel irony in a society where progress is flesh-deep. But this limitation becomes her power. V becomes a pop sensation - the only "Natural" singer in Night City - marketed as the last pure human voice. No digital filters. No synth-vocal enhancements. Just unaltered breath, pain, and sound. And in the chrome-drenched world of faux idols, she becomes an icon... and a target. Rogue Amendiares, the Queen of Afterlife, takes V under her wing, not as a fixer, but as a protector. She sees V not as a product, but as a daughter - a rare chance at redemption for the people she couldn't save. Rogue funds her rise, guards her soul, and shapes her career from the shadows. But when Lizzy Wizzy - cyber-sculpted superstar and philosophical narcissist - becomes obsessed with V, the story spirals into a psychological and romantic war between identity, technology, and control. Lizzy wants V. Not just the body. Not just the voice. But the soul untouched by chrome. She wants to understand it. To own it. To love it... if she can. And V? She can't tell if she wants to destroy Lizzy, become her, or be consumed by her.Complete
Old Blood
When humanity's survival demanded monsters, they made them. The mistake was believing they could ever be controlled. Nearly 125 years after the Vampire War, cities shine again - glittering towers of comfort and order - but their foundations are built on ash. Outside the walls, wastelands crawl with outliers, scavengers, and whispers of old loyalties that refuse to die. Nicolas Weiss, the first of his kind, carries the weight of a century of blood and betrayal. He thought he had ended it all when he put a blade through Suki, the woman he once loved and the mother of his daughter. But ghosts don't stay buried - and some refuse to remain ghosts at all. Anika, the daughter who grew up under Suki's shadow, finds herself torn between the father she can't forgive and the mother she fears becoming. And Kira, Nicki's lethal protégé, hides truths she can't even admit to herself. Together, they must navigate fragile alliances, old betrayals, and a rising threat that promises "protection" but demands obedience. Because Suki isn't simply back. She has a plan - one that could enslave what's left of humanity. And family is the sharpest weapon of all.
Vicious Fangs (Mystic Bonds #1) | COMPLETED
❝ Let's find you a new home, shall we? ❞ •○• A cold Shifter General. A bloodthirsty Vampire Prince. A powerful Fae King. A mysterious protective werewolf Alpha. And a human girl. The question was - why were the strings of fate bringing them together? •○• 18 year old, sharp and vigilant Cara Arnel was one step away from slavery freedom and being sold. And being caught by the Shifter General of the Vampire Army was most certainly not a part of that plan. Nor was becoming a scullery maid or an assaulted slave in the Royal Palace instead of a blood bag or sex slave. But that was when things started to change. Tensions became high and fights broke out in the unstable supernatural world with the return of Lucifer's son: Killian after more than four centuries. Her visions started again. And a bit too many supernatural males were willing to protect her for no reason whatsoever. Turns out, Cara might not be as insignificant as she thought. Yet, she was undoubtedly human. And it seemed, she wasn't as well informed of her past as she thought. If her memories were the ones to be relied upon. At least.......the ones she had of this life. •○• Shortlisted for Wattpad India Awards 2021 (Please don't copy the story line. It's all mine. A figment of my imagination.

Mod Superhero
For this cyborg, power is just an upgrade away. Emmett was used to being caught between college and his engineering internship, but when he gets caught between a powerful hero and an even stronger villain, he becomes collateral damage. Instead of dying, he wakes up a cyborg. Turns out his boss wasn't just an eccentric inventor, and the old man just gave him a shining opportunity to be a hero. Except that's just the beginning, and things are about to get a lot more complicated. His boss has his own agenda. The boss's daughter has her own power armor. His roommate works for an evil corporation. And Emmett is small fry. Just a Class 1 hero. Superheroes aren't just masks-some work for corporations, or for the government and the military, and even as mercenaries in wars. Shadowy cabals pull the strings of hero and villain alike. The city of Belport might be peaceful for now, but most of the world is in turmoil. If Emmett is going to have any chance at making a difference, he needs to get stronger. A lot stronger. How much of his humanity will he hold onto and how much will he trade away? If you're a fan of Cyborg, Winter Soldier, Iron Man, or Batman Beyond, then you don't want to miss this series!

Blood of Mars
Beauty is skin deep...but blood lies just beneath the surface... In 2035, the first colony on Mars was established. Only a year after, it cut off all contact from Earth, and its inhabitants were presumed dead. They were wrong. In 2037, the skies of Earth were smothered by darkness. The Martians returned to the place they once called home...and they were no longer human. The people of Earth were crushed by the bloodthirsty, vampiric Martians and reduced to little more than livestock for their flesh and blood. Two decades later, in what is now known as Neo Tokyo, Mana Tsugumi lives an oblivious existence among the groveling, impoverished masses, turning a blind eye to the cruelty surrounding her, until a fateful encounter nearly ends her up in the clutches of the hungry vampires. With her eyes wide open to the perils of the outside world, she must make a dire choice- submit and remain livestock, or fight back to regain her humanity.Complete
Static Crush {M/M} ✔
WATTY 2019 WINNER Hale, a state of the art android, can do nearly anything a human can. He cooks meals, cleans and organizes the house, repairs broken appliances, and runs errands. He can even provide for the more carnal needs of his owner. None of these tasks should present any challenge for Hale, and they don't-until he meets his next door neighbour, Rayner. Rayner seems like an unassuming gardener, but he asks Hale a lot of questions. Does Hale wish he could smell or taste food? What would he look like if his appearance hadn't been chosen for him? From the moment they meet, Hale runs into errors in otherwise simple tasks. He experiences bizarre sensations that none of his diagnostic tools can explain, and struggles to appease the people in his owner's social circle. As the errors in his programming begin to wear on his owner's patience, Hale faces the most difficult decision yet. If he can't evolve to meet her needs, he'll be returned and recycled into parts for future androids. If he does evolve, is he still just an android? Or something more? In all this, Rayner is the only man who can help him, and Rayner only has one question left for Hale. What does he want? Hale wasn't designed to want anything, but perhaps he can find the answer in the man with all the questions.

The Last 0-Day
The cybernetics revolution knows no compromise. Luciana Gutierrez, a police officer, works ninety-six-hour shifts with a eugeroic hangover around the corner. Her investigation into those who stole her life is sidelined as a crime syndicate turns her precinct into a war-zone. Sent for backup, she's offered experimental technology that could turn the tide, if she's willing to risk mind, body, and soul. Anton Grissom's birth was a crime, and his sentence is military service. Molded into an elite soldier, his path of atonement falls away when he's caught on the losing side of a massacre. In the aftermath, he's offered a second chance at life-if he's prepared to pay. Weaver heals the broken and disposable, and in the process makes cybernetics a reality. Superhuman strength, intelligence, and connections to one another, it could solve humanity's problems or tear society apart. But those concerns are secondary to Weaver, who just wants to see the next sunrise. All three are augmented for their own personal crusade and are on a collision course that will change the world. The Last 0-Day is an action-packed adventure about the start of the cybernetics revolution. It's Black Mirror meets Malazan Book of the Fallen with a dash of cli-fi.

Neon Black
The corporate-run city of Mecropolis pulses like a circuit board in the dark, with neon veins pumping power, secrets, and corruption under the ruthless watch of Anodyne Networks. Here, rebellion isn't just resistance. It's survival. Here, four souls entangle in the city's electric undercurrent, each fractured by the machine but wired to fight it: Nameless, ghosting through digital shadows, chases echoes from a past Anodyne buried but never forgot. Mister Whisper wears lies like armor, a woman masked in masculine ambiguity, trading secrets that could rewrite fate with a word. 404, the genius with circuitry in his bones and compassion in his code, sparks hope amidst the crushing gears of corporate oppression. And Reaper, part human, part machine, all fury, and living proof that sometimes you must become the monster to defeat one. In Neon Black, lines blur between flesh and steel, identity and illusion, freedom and obedience. The city is watching.Complete
