White Rabbit by KaddenceFire
67 parts Complete
On the day that Clattonia lost it all, she became a monster -- at least, that's what the public calls those who are viewed as a threat due to having supernatural powers. Now, never trusting and pushed over the edge, seventeen year old Clattonia Cessair has become a fearless leader for those who want to rebel against White Rabbit, a government organization that kills "monsters" and protects the public, whether they were actually causing a problem or not. Jace Athens is the son of Daylen Athens, who became a famous and productive leader of White Rabbit after his wife was murdered by a "monster" when Jace was only five. Jace was raised to be caring, protective, fearless, and always willing to aid others, and although he was raised in a household that hates the so called monsters, he could never bring himself to hate them -- something deep inside him just couldn't. However, it wasn't like he was best friends with any either. But things just might change... Essence Kaori has always been shy, but the fact that she's been a "monster" since she was a child doesn't help her case. Not wanting to cause harm to anyone, Essence has always been known as a friendly girl once people got past her shyness. However, ever since she could remember, she's been hiding from White Rabbit. Reece Maverick -- smart, tactical, protective, oh, and a "monster" too. Reece is Clattonia's childhood friend and a leader of another group fighting against White Rabbit. Clattonia and Reece often work together and make a flawless team, but more and more people with supernatural powers have been getting killed by White Rabbit, making things even more risky than before. Just remember -- this is a world where the real darkness is not so clearly defined.

You play games. She plays tricks. In the realm of games, where trickery abounds, a tale arises of a gifted assassin. Cassandra Roman Elizabeth Viper, blessed with a birthright from the divine, knew one truth above all else: "Don't trust the thirteen." With her family's legacy and newfound obligations weighing upon her, Cassandra's thirst for vengeance knows no bounds. Will she attain the retribution she seeks, or will she fall to the very forces she battles? Behold, "I Will Rise," the inaugural tome of D.A. Willows' "Gods Be Damned" series. In this modern retelling of the fabled Greek myth of Cassandra of Troy, action and romance entwine in a dark, fast-paced epic. As you delve into this tome, the edge of your seat will beckon, and the yearning for more will ignite. But do not despair, for a little edging never hurt anyone. Please note, dear seeker of knowledge, that this is a modern dark romance tale with a mafia twist, a reimagining of Cassandra of Troy. While the narrative may diverge from the original myth, it is fortified with unique elements and characters that will captivate your imagination. Yet, some mysteries may remain unsolved until the second book's release, and though they do not diminish the greatness of this tome, they will leave you yearning for more. And a word of caution, the moody and vexing men within these pages may steal your heart. This story is intended for mature audiences, and please read the trigger warnings before indulging.

Love is a loaded weapon. And Cassian Lux never misses. Until her. Evelyn Carter doesn't believe in fate. Love is just another carefully crafted illusion, and she's never been foolish enough to fall for it. But when her investigation into a missing journalist leads her into a world she was never meant to see, she finds herself caught in the sights of a stranger-one with golden eyes, a wicked smile, and a presence that feels like a trap waiting to snap shut. Cassian Lux is not a man. He is something else entirely. He speaks in riddles. Watches her like he knows every secret she's ever tried to bury. And when he pulls the string of his bow, aiming a love-forged arrow straight at her heart--nothing happens. Now, Cassian is obsessed. Evie is terrified. And the Fates are watching. Because love is not a blessing. It is a curse. And Evie Carter was never supposed to exist.
