Rewind: The Third Son
The law hates him. Criminals fear him. Someone wants to be him. Three-quarters of humanity have evolved into superpowered beings bound by a genetic killing barrier. They are the Dominants, incapable of murder. The rest are Recessives: ordinary, unprotected, and fully capable of killing. Gabriel is one of them. Fresh out of prison after serving seven years for murder, all Gabriel wants is to go home, reunite with his family, and leave violence behind. But when a serial killer begins terrorizing the city, his own sister calls him a psycho, and a stalker known only as R escalates their twisted game from the shadows, Gabriel realizes something far worse than being hunted: Someone wants him to keep killing. Forced back into the role everyone despises - a killer, Gabriel must decide whether to abandon the one skill he was born for or embrace it on his own terms. As he tries to rebuild his life among the capital's elite: college halls, glittering social circles, heirs of power, he's drawn to a woman who hides more than she reveals, and to a truth more dangerous than any crime: Monsters don't always look like criminals. And criminals don't always look like monsters. As the line between justice and cruelty blurs, Gabriel faces a choice he can't escape: Cling to his humanity and be destroyed by the monsters around him, or fight back and become one himself. A man branded a killer, trying desperately to live. He survived juvie. He survived prison. Living might be harder. A story about power, guilt, and the fragile connections that hold a broken man together, or tear him apart.Complete

Gamleon's Tail ~ Welcome to the worlds of : Within ~
I wrote this for EVERYONE. To appeal to anyone that reads ANY genre. It combines almost all of them. It's an introduction to the Worlds of Within universe. When you get to the action parts (which doesn't take long) you should be invested enough to want to unravel the mysteries and enjoy its intrigue... The flood is raging. A terrifying, heartless mountain of water, swallowing the world . The tunnel networks? Of course, that won't save them. The forests? Like leaves in a breeze. The lookout towers and trade hubs? Gone. Washed clean. Every home, every last trace of what once was. Gamleon is the first to see it ... and survive. His mind is near collapse, his heart broken. He runs. What would YOU do? What could anyone do? Some scrape by in a mythological setting of beasts and medieval men. Cruel, literally cold-blooded Gorgon hordes enforce an absolute rule slithering in the tunnels beneath the feet of every kingdom. There is an isolated, forgotten place. A cavern, magnificent and vast, older than civilization. A place where the weird and the unwanted might ride out this cataclysm if Gamleon can stay alive long enough to get them there.. In this special place, something incredible, cut off from the outside, lurks. Something... you won't be ready for or ever expect. Gamleon, our weary adventurer, is a paradox: terrifying to some perhaps, yet his heart and intent is helpful, with a quiet dignity bordering on noble, intimidating and innately intelligent. The only way back out is to navigate the Gorgon tunnels. Join him, won't you ? Share his inner thoughts . See and feel how they help us all learn how to persist and triumph in spite of a world where everything is stacked against us. ( sound familiar, it should.) Join him and be swept away as he encounters or invents never-before-seen innovations and outrageous challenges. Dignity meets hope. Self-respect shines beyond courage. Welcome my friend to the Worlds of Within.
