"When you've found love, then you have to choose..." ~ Don't Close Your Eyes
"When you're not alone... something or someone is right there with you, in the dark." ~ The Cuttist
***
A spine-tingling romance inspired by the Wattpad October 2019 Short Story Contest.
***
Kiki, code-named "The Cuttist", is a member of an organization of assassins called the Mirror People.
Kiki has never failed a mission, but when her next target happens to be the man of her dreams, she must decide to either keep or kill him.
Any choice she makes comes with a consequence.
***
I have given myself a personal challenge to develop my October contest entries (which were originally standalones) into a short story with 24 parts.
Each part will be either 400 or 100 words on the dot, and will borrow a title from the Wattpad Short Story reading lists "Spine Tinglers" and "Love Dairies." Both lists have 12 titles each, and I will only use each title once.
I hope to finish the story before the next (November) contest.
Wish me luck!
UPDATE: I finished well in advance and in time for Nanowrimo 2019
UPDATE 2: The story has been developed into three volumes under The Nigerian Assassin Series.

Male! Agents 3,4,&8 x Inkling!Reader [DISCONTINUED]
Edit of Feb 14, 2023 This book is DISCONTINUED. It was taken down around 2019? 2020 due to friends and family finding it. I will now be posting everything unedited and unfinished for the sake of not feeling bad about the "talent" that middle school me felt when writing this. I wrote this because I couldn't find a good Splatoon 2 fanfic and decided I'd do it myself, I still use that kind of motivation to write things like music now 💀 Eyyy, so i was playing Squid Splat earlier and felt inspired! Reader is female in this book! (Sorry to you guys...i might make a gender bend? Idk) THIS IS A STORY! YES A STORY!! Yaaay!~ Anyway uh Y/n = Your name Blah blah blah... Y/n isn't like most inklings. She can still turf and fight and do what most inklings do, but what makes her stand out is her colors. Her colors aren't like other inklings you see in Inkopolis. Like Marie and Pearl. Her hair color is white and changes color depending on what she wants and almost always changes her hair style. She also changes eye color constantly. So sometimes no one even recognizes her. She heard of rumors of the old subway station and she's seen another inkling who's told her that he's an agent...agent 4, near what seems to be a sewer? What happens when she wanders into both paths and ends up in deeper ink than she intended to? Read the book to find out duh.... XDComplete
The Clockwork Killer ✓
Highest ranking: #404 in Mystery/Thriller ☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆ "Choose." I heard the gun cock against Georgie's head. She suddenly screamed, "No! Luna! You can't choose me over you! Save yourself!" The killer said, "Silence," and Georgie obeyed, but I had heard her. "Choose, or I'll choose for you." The murderer made a point of pressing the muzzle harder into Georgie's temple. I looked into my best friend's deep brown eyes. I knew what I had to do. ☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆ NOTE: This was my first book on Wattpad, so it's not great. The plot is unoriginal and it starts out boring but I somehow managed to save it in the last 3 or so chapters. Read at your own risk of cringing so hard your head will fall off.

# I will stop publishing my story on wattpad because I'm worried about plagiarism. The world has been destroyed. All that remains is the Ark, and inside it, humans are oppressed by the Eldritch. On the outside, only death awaits thanks to heat so scorching it burns you alive, and cold so chilling, it freezes your retinas in under half a minute. Erin Watts is a 15-year-old human living in the slums of Designated Area No.6. He attends the prestigious Arlington School of Servitude and wants nothing more than having a bright future. Unfortunately, things aren't going his way as of late. His mother, a syred human, is sick and about to die. When she bites the dust, her protection from being syred to an Eldritch master will die with her, leaving Erin unprotected. His school is also starting to suspect he might not come from a wealthy background. And, to top it all off, his Eldritch neighbor wants to rape him and torture him to death. Could it get any worse for him? What can Erin do? How far will he go before he breaks down? Can he beat the system? Find out in this story about oppression, desperation, violence, and a pair of crazy girls. Disclaimer: The girls in this story are not the cliche mindless and submissive Daisies you find around Wattpad. If you are into that, then don't let the door hit you and leave. It also won't have your cliche yanderes.Complete

Release Me
Highest ranked- #10 in action 2/16/2017 A promotion. That's all I wanted. I didn't want to run for my life. I didn't want to be kidnapped. I didn't want to face death. I didn't want to find out my whole life was a lie. I just wanted a bloody promotion. Guess fate had other plans? **** The cold air fanned over my face as I opened the door. The exit door lead to the back of the building so it was pitch black. I leaned against the wall trying to control myself. Blood was running down my arm and head. My hair was stuck to my face from all the sweat and blood. Everything was spinning around me and the ground seemed like it was shaking. Groaning I sat down and put my head on my knees. He knows who I am. He knows how I look like. He knows where I work so possible knows where I live. I am not safe anymore... no where. While I was in my own world I heard faint sounds behind me but I didn't bother to look or run away. The footsteps got closer and I was pretty sure it was Walker's men. I should run. I should try to fight. But what's the point in trying to run away? He would eventually find me and if he has his way he would most likely kill me. If this is my fate then why am I trying to fight it? I felt someone harshly grab my waist and pull me up and I complied. They dragged me down the alley and into the busy street. I heard the opening of a car and the next thing I knew I was being thrown into a car. My head hit the hard leather seat and the door shut behind me. Maybe this is how my life will end. Maybe I should just let it happen. Maybe I was destined to die alone as a no one. With that I let the darkness consume me.Complete

Walking through a crowd is hell. Not to mention that when she opens her big mouth to tell people what's going to happen to them, most treat her like she's crazy - even after she saves their lives. But meddling with the future has consequences, and Death is not all there is to fear. As Evelyn races to find a way to save the new transfer student from being murdered, a voice starts whispering in her ear. Someone or something lurks in the shadows. Watching. Waiting.

LOVE BEYOND THE GRAVE
Two strangers. One deadly night. A love that transcends death. She never expected to die. The searing pain of a knife plunging into her stomach was the last thing she felt before everything went dark. But in those final moments, she locked eyes with him-a man she didn't know, lying beside her in the same blood-soaked fate, his gaze meeting hers. There was something undeniable in his eyes-was it crazy to fall in love when you're dying? She believed, in that fleeting instant, he was there to save her. But was he? Reincarnated and inexplicably drawn to him once again, Pearl finds herself caught in a web of dangerous desire and dark secrets. Now a successful UI/UX designer in a fast-paced tech world, she has no idea why Kian Smith-a ruthless billionaire CEO of a cybersecurity empire-feels like her destiny. As their worlds collide, the attraction between them is electric, fated, yet forbidden. But Kian has a past-one he refuses to speak of. And the more Pearl uncovers, the more she realizes their connection runs far deeper than she ever imagined. Flashbacks of a shared death, blood, betrayal, and a love that should've never been torment her, making her question everything. Is their bond truly written in the stars? Or is someone playing a deadly game of fate? In a world of power, secrets, and lies, love might just be the most dangerous game of all. And discovering the truth could cost them everything. ~~~~~ Let me tell you one thing, when these two finally let loose, it's going to be a spicy mess. The tension's wild, the chemistry's off the charts, and when they finally collide? It's going to be hotter than your wildest daydreams. Get ready for some scorching moments that'll leave you fanning yourself and questioning if you should be reading this in public.😉
