It sounds like a fairy-tale, but not only that; this story of what The man: by his science and practical inventions has achieved on this earth, where he first appeared as a weakly member of the animal kingdom, and on which each individual of his species must ever again appear as a helpless infant... is a direct fulfilment of all, or of most, of the dearest wishes in his fairy-tales. All these possessions he has acquired through culture. Long ago he formed an ideal conception of omnipotence and omniscience which he embodied in his gods. Whatever seemed unattainable to his desires - or forbidden to him - he attributed to these gods. One may say, therefore, that these gods were the ideals of his culture. Now he has himself approached very near to realizing this ideal, he has nearly become a god himself. But only, it is true, in the way that ideals are usually realized in the general experience of humanity. Not completely; in some respects not at all, in others only by halves. Man has become a god by means of artificial limbs, so to speak, quite magnificent when equipped with all his accessory organs; but they do not grow on him and they still give him trouble at times... Future ages will produce further great advances in t his realm of culture, probably inconceivable now, and will increase man's likeness to a god still more. The story will bring up a true love from a 'fake love'this will be the hardest decision to be made but true love better than love out of possessions. They will build their own wealth and outstand the rest in their community and become the standard measure to others. With the slogan "keep on keeping on no matter what they made it in life.

Omega and the beast
You know when people say how it's like love at first sight when seeing their love for the first time? You look him in the eyes and know he's the man of your dreams. Bullshit! There's nothing that would ever change my mind about the so-called love of my life! Sure, the first time I saw him he was annoyingly handsome with his proud demeanour & defined cheekbones. That penetrating look of his made my knees weak. With shiny black shoes and a Dracula coat with a hairstyle as shiny as his Santorini black jaguar. But the first thing I thought when I saw Reed Ramon Hook the third was, what a twat! A proud rich dipshit who thinks he can own everything. No one could ever say no to this noble twat! You may wonder why I roast the love of my life. But is there anyone who has the permission to do so it must be his own omega, right? Yes, I forgot to mention how this perfect dipshit to a hunkalicious twat is the alpha of the Hookhill pack. To be honest, I had no idea what that meant. Nor did I know how a man can bend down and suddenly stand on four paws, growing a tail! It came as news to me! But the biggest shock was how it turned out that I also can warp into a beast with a furry tail above my ass! From being an unsuccessful yet optimistic guy without an income but with a sense of sarcasm, to then kind of belong to town's richest man, becoming the subject of an Alpha battle. I understand if you're confused. So was I! But let me rewind the tape and take everything from the beginning. Lean back and embrace your sassiness! Because sassiness rules and is needed when dealing with a twat! Heads up! This book contains mature themes like smut, mpreg, violence & bad language. It addresses important topics like rights & gender. I want to highlight these themes but don't intend to devalue anyone stereotypically. It's a fictional story intended to entertain but with important topics. Trigger warning for abusive-like violence and oppression, mainly towards the end.Complete

Earthonia Immortal Love
E28 held the entire world within his orange ethereal glowing hands. To most people, being twenty-four years old for all eternity, sounds like a pretty sweet deal. No elderly body aches, your sex drive remains on 100%, and you'll forever be in the prime of your life. Well, in their quest for scientific breakthroughs, our brilliant, overachieving ancestors unknowingly rewrote the entire genetic playbook for our bloodline-long before I was even conceived. By running experiments on themselves, they inadvertently spliced and hardcoded their DNA with something not even they fully understood. The result? Earl Williams the 28th. Born with a delightful grab bag of 5th-dimensional (5D) abilities, including, but not limited to, immortality. And I know what you're thinking. 'Wow! Immortality? That's incredible!' Well, let's see if you feel the same way after falling in love with your soulmate, watching them grow old and die, while you just keep on, existing. Turns out, eternal youth isn't all it's cracked up to be. In fact, it can be less of a gift, and more of a life sentence. Just after Earl's 400th birthday he discovered his 5th dimensional abilities could take him pretty far; literally. As in intergalactic travel. Over time he met other interdimensional beings. Such as Draco, a powerful 4D being who motioned for the ICU to immediately annihilate all of humanity, in order to give Earth time to rebuild its natural resources. Initially, the Intergalactic Chamber of the Universe granted Draco permission to follow through with his murderous plan. However, Earl stepped in and pleaded for humanity's relocation instead of their annihilation. You see Earl himself was earth born. Only as a teenager, did he discover his 5D abilities. He saw the progress humanity had been making. He knew they had learned from their past environmental failures. In his opinion, the people of Earth didn't have to die. All they needed was a new start on a different planet.Complete
The Sacred Wolf Pact
Werewolves exist, but none of that sparkly vampire bullshit. In this world, we are divided into two categories, human, and wolf. Wolves are divided into four categories as well. Alpha, the leader of the pact, beta, the most trusted followers, normals, those who came use their abilities, and omegas, completely average. Unfortunately, every century or so, a omega is born that is extremely fertile, able to give birth to many wolf children. Its bad enough to be attacked when in heat, but for that to happen? Yet, we sill follow the rules of mates, so this rare omega ends up with only one person. And it's only when the omega is in heat can they have children, male or female. Over century has gone by without a sight of this rare Omega. At least, that's what I thought. It's not until I go into heat for the first time, when I'm seventeen, that I realize that it's me, and my mate......... My mate isn't the least bit friendly. This story is mostly fluff, so yeah. Lots of kisses and fluffy wolf babies. Little angst. It's also very short. After the epilogue, the story will continue in a sequel. So, if you want more emotions than this, stay tuned for that.Complete
Static
{COMPLETED} "now that you've had your fun electrocuting me, would you care to hop in the backseat?" ---------------------------------------------------------- Freak DNA. That's what I like to call it. The fault to my genetic code. More often than not, it's a curse. The static running through my blood gave me a name. A cruel, daunting label of a measly bug. A roach. That's what I am to them, to the government. Roach; the nameless monster with electricity for a sense and lightening as a second nature. It ruined my life, the sparking currents playing tag in my mind, running around and bumping into everything, shaking me loose. The government, actually. They ruined my life. My curse just gave them a reason. You see, the normal population with ordinary DNA, they don't know about the people like me. The roaches of the world. We don't get that kind of recognition at the camps. There, we are only one thing in the military's eyes. We are weapons and we will act like it. Everyone else out there, bathing in the goodness they don't know they've got, they don't know about the roaches their stepping on. As long as their getting closer to the sky, they don't care what they stand on to reach it. They don't know about the sparkling dreamer that's killed 7 people before her 17th birthday. They don't about the ghost of a girl peaking around corners for her entire life because even home wasn't safe. They don't know about the fighter of steel and iron sucking on his bloody lip courtesy of the wars he battles in as nothing but a shadow. They don't know about the masked villain who would do anything to see the army they lead claim the throne They don't know about us. But they will, because we will rise. And when we arrive, we will arrive violently. ___________________________________________ Started: 10.06.15 Finished: 3.17.16Complete

I SOLD YOU (Omegaverse)
18+ !!!! Omegaverse = everyone has a secondary gender, which can be an Alpha, Beta, or an Omega. "Y/n, come here! Now!" My father yelled from the kitchen. I took my AirPods off and went downstairs. "You called..?" My father is a Beta, my mother, who was an Omega, died when I was 6, now I'm 21 and I can't wait to leave this house. The thing is, we're poor. And because I'm an Omega, it's hard for me to find a job or to rent a place, because they always want me to sleep with them in return for giving me a place to stay, or for employing me. That's why my father calls me "useless" most of the time. "I'm tired of feeding your ass and dealing with your shit. You're useless, good only for carrying babies and that's why, I finally got rid of you," he spoke drily as he smoked his cigarette and drank his beer. "W-what do you mean you got rid of me..?" I asked in a bare whisper and took a step back. "I didn't see it coming either, but last night, when I was playing poker in the Casino, as I do every night, I met this guy, an Alpha. I lost all my money to him, but then, just when I was about to leave, he said; 'I'll give you your money back, plus 10 million dollars, if you give me your daughter.' I don't know how he found out about you, but I gladly gave in, so pack your shits, they'll be here in 10 minutes." Alphas = 35% of the population, are dominant, muscular, very strong and handsome, female Alphas are rare, they go into rut once in 3 months, release dominant pheromones, which attract Omegas, they mark their mates/omegas, by biting their neck.

Omegas = 15% of the population, are submissive, short, skinny but curvy, they can't be muscular - their body won't allow them, they go into heat once in a month, male omegas are rare, release pheromones which attract Alphas, they're getting marked by Alphas while in heat.Complete
Rejecting the Alpha
Kylie survived the brutal destruction of her pack only to discover her cold alpha mate was the one responsible for the brutal slaughter of her family and pack mates. She can't forgive and she won't forget. Kylie cooperates with his demands while she searches for a way to free the remaining survivors and herself. Success teaches her just how complicated mate bonds can be and gives her the chance to choose her own fate. "Screw the mate bond. If I went for his throat while he was driving in human form, I might be able to kill him right now, and if I didn't succeed, the resulting accident might. I leapt for the front seat, powerful jaw ready to rip out his throat as he had ripped out my family's to take my revenge. Without even taking his left hand off the wheel, he blocked me by getting his right forearm between my jaws. I bit down as hard as I could, wishing to break his bones and sever the limb. Worse, I felt the tingles of our first contact where violence had connected us. The iron of his blood mingled with the other scents around me." (This is a dark story, but not the stereotypical one where she falls in love with her captor. This is the story of escape from a toxic relationship and finding healthy love.) MATURE content including violence, dubious consent, intimacy, and mature and other possibility upsetting themes like threats of suicide and miscarriage.
