She woke up on the 999th floor of the Skyworld's richest tower to luxury, affection, and the perfect life. The problem is that Sasha - if that is really her name - can't remember if any of it is real. Vaughn Scio, the powerful regent who claims to be her lover, is certainly hiding something.

WATTYS SHORT LIST! When sixteen-year-old Sasha Nikolayeva opens her eyes on a horrifying tableau of dead and dying bodies, she can only hope to wake up. But the nightmare, if that's what it is, doesn't end. Instead, Sasha finds herself rendered mute and enslaved by a society which doesn't recognize her as a human being. To the citizens of Kingsgarden, "thralls" like Sasha are automatons brought into being by mages, incapable of speech or independent thought. Hidden behind a carefully crafted mask of soulless neutrality, Sasha silently endures starvation, degradation, and physical abuse at the hands of her captors as she watches and waits for an opportunity to escape into the glittering, majestic capital city of Kingsgarden. Despite visions of her old life which strongly suggest that she is suffering from some sickness of the mind--a neurological disorder, or perhaps simple insanity--Sasha is determined to take matters into her own hands and find her way home, whether she is imprisoned truly in a foreign land or only in her own mind. But as time goes by, Sasha finds herself drawn to the beauty and vitality of the City...and to the handsome Beastspeaker who only wants to give her his heart. Sasha knows she has no choice but to leave it all behind in order to go home, but she can't help but begin to wonder if "home" is where she thought it was and if the line between reality and madness is as fixed as it seems. This is a very early version of my novel "A Garden of Light and Shadows" which is currently under agent consideration. Cross your fingers for me!

This novel is a zom-com-rom, blending a zombie apocalypse with humor and romance. "Good morning, welcome to Grand Crest Hotel. May I have the name under which the room is booked?" "Han So Hee," she replied. The receptionist typed quickly on the keyboard. "Ah, yes, Ms. Han. You're in room 1102 on the 12th floor." She handed her the room key card. . . she found a convenience store connected to the mall, purchased some samgak-Gimbap, and ate quickly. she stepped outside, expecting the usual bustle of evening activity. As she scanned the empty area, her eyes caught a figure-a man standing far away, motionless. Something about the way he stood unsettled her. Then, out of nowhere, a group of people rushed toward him. Startled, Han took out her phone, recording the scene from a distance. "What's going on?" she wondered. Planning to at least send the video to the police. "I shouldn't get involved in a street fight when I just landed here, right? ..." "Ugh ... I don't Know ..." She stepped closer, but what she saw next made her freeze in fear. The group wasn't just attacking the man. They were biting him, tearing at his flesh, their movements jerky and unnatural. Her stomach churned as her mind screamed the truth: "they weren't people. They were something far worse." . . "How did I end up here?" she wondered. "This feels like something straight out of a drama..." . . "How do people in dramas do this? she thought, feeling the sharp ache of hunger gnawing at her insides. They train for days without eating, and somehow they're fine. But here I am, struggling to even think straight." . . . She have to survive this with... ..Training.. ..Finding other survivors.. ..Finding a Safe Place.. ..or.. .. ..Finding Love..?
Yes Your Highness 18+ by KaliAngels
19 parts Ongoing Mature
There are much older generations, far removed from the world we know today. Many before us have transcended the boundaries of mortality, leaving behind echoes of their existence, remnants faded but never forgotten. In our world where we live, and breathe, there are whispers of the extraordinary. Among these tales, those naturally born with the gift of shape-shifting stand apart, often cast in shadows of suspicion and disdain. Society views them as embodiments of wickedness, a misunderstanding rooted in fear. It is not they who are wicked; rather, it is mankind's capacity for cruelty that brings darkness into the light. As the stories unfold, the line between myth and reality blurs, and what began as a simple narrative transforms into something far more complex tapestry woven with threads of the unknown. One such story tells of a man destined for something greater. Over time, rumors grew, painting him as a deity for all who walk in the light and shadow as a wolf. He became an object of reverence and fear; she-wolves and he-wolves closed their eyes and trembled at the sound of his name. Yet, beneath this veneer of legend lay a deeper truth. What they believed was a man-made into an unforeseen story of an exiled god, in reality, been a transformation wrought by both choice and circumstance. He was something forever altered by forces beyond his control, the essence of his humanity still lingered, even when he could no longer hide the beast within. Stephanie's fate is in between two different worlds. One of the Gods of old and the world she once knew. A love triangle blossoms and she doesn't know what's truly her wish. To be at the side of Riley Augustine, or Chase Ares. Through an unspeakable forbidden act. She knew she was destined to be the mate of a natural-born God.
