Ultimate Damage-2nd by Fresh_BossPopley

MY book THat INclUdEs FigHtInG...More than 900 years ago a long clash between two sides of nature sprung havoc on the planet. The force defied all natural order of life and only those who could bear this period was able to survive until a greater chaos descended. Malice was imprinted upon mankind as the dark centuries of war ended. This malicious and Chaotic beast by the name of Olympa awoke from the deepest slumber in the fetish for carnage. Ultimately the world escaped a certain doom. A male given the name of Nemo and Alpha was the force of nature that collided into each for the past centuries they were blamed for awakening true malice, (Olympa). Nemo in his dying breath used his special divine shield barrier to divide a isolated set of islands and saved a quarter of mankind. This Barrier was what protected the people from Olympa's Deadly attacks and later known as the Bermuda Triangle- An isolated set of island's that is not classified as in the world of the living but, Para norm. As for alpha, he used his divine sealing spell to turn himself into Ecclesiast Tamboran Volcano ultimately, sending the malicious beast back to hell. All those event's took place and some human's that was unfortunate in being in the barrier somehow survived. Those human's are classified as the Outer world people. The one's in the Bermuda Triangle was classified as the Inner world people and division in the world brought on later on warfares when people escaped the triangle or reach into the triangle. The son of Nemo Aligaabre -(Daquando Tamano De-El Salvador Aligaabre) would soon acquire the worlds greatest weapon from all times to help in restoring true peace to mankind, though the events that will take place throughout his journey will be far more than one's nightmares could have possibly be.

Regency Romance: The Earl's Obsession (Historical Romance) (COMPLETED) by charlottestonebooks

(COMPLETED) It's 1817 and there is nothing more a woman wants than to marry a rich man and live a life of comfort. But not Nancy Brooks. Having spent half her life helping her mother run her laundry shop and the other half in the local library, Nancy knows what she wants, and it is not a life spent looking for the perfect suitor. Things take a turn when she delivers clothes to one of the schools she always dreamed of attending and ends up saving the day. Lord Andrew Montgomery rules almost every place he sets foot in-one of the perks of being the son of the most powerful duke of the time-and this includes Oxford. Violent and aggressive, he vows to make the life of every student who dares defy him miserable. However, when he targets the new (and first) girl at Oxford, his obsession becomes a little more than just making her life miserable. It began, he would later speculate, with a shout: the simple sound of someone shouting at him-for the first time in his life. It began, she would later speculate, with a catch: the simple movement of strong arms, breaking her fall, catching her midway. But after that, there would come many more events, and ones not too keen on bringing them together. What will they do when a powerful duchess steps in, when it seems every person is working to keep them apart? This is a story of betrayal and love, because they are not so different after all...

The Mystery Girl by SiaYadav07

"It was dark, darker than black. Spider webs all over, clinging down the slim lane. There stood in front of me, a grey painting of a grey Queen. Only her crown shining in vibrant colours. I looked at it, around it, and above it. As my steps reached behind the painting, I slipped off, falling in more darkness. At this point, there was no difference in keeping my eyelids open or close. There, I saw the flash of light that can either change my life completely, or finish it, completely." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ #298 in Warriors #117 in Epic (Last I'd checked) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Suzanne, a 22 year old intern finds a mysterious map in a book she was reading.
