I wished for a Boyfriend not a Girlfriend (GxG, Lesbian) °editing° by FallinginReverze
38 parts Complete Mature
I was awakened by a buzz, but I don't want to get up, instead I lay still on my bed and about to dream again when I heard a THUD, I flinched at the sound. It's Saturday so I'm not expecting anyone at this early in the morning. I'm not a morning person, I am now annoyed to whoever it is. "Coming!" I yelled and started walking which took me sometime because I literally took my time, don't blame me I'm still sleepy, I opened the door to see a very beautiful woman, she has long wavy hair, thick eyelashes and pink pout lips and lastly... a body to die for. I frowned when I realized a high-school student? I can say because she's wearing a uniform. What is a beautiful high-school girl doing here knocking at my door? I asked mentally. I was about to ask her when she suddenly slipped inside my condo and sit on the couch cozily, I crossed my arms and face her still frowning. "Miss what are you doing here? What do you need?" I asked her curiously. She looked at me and smiled, a smile that can make men drool, but I'm not because I'm still annoyed. "I am your girlfriend" she said sweetly, my eyes widened in shock, I know I'm drunk last night but I don't remember having a girlfriend. I was about to say something when she stood up and face me leaning so much closer that were inches apart. "You wished for me, last night on the internet" oh crap! Now I remember! I was browsing the net when a certain ad captures my attention. "But I wished for a BOYFRIEND! Not a Girlfriend!!?" How do you handle a situation where there's NO REFUND and NO EXCHANGE?

Lone Survivor by therealraymundtamayo
20 parts Complete Mature
The world is dead. The outbreak that consumed humanity left the cities as graveyards of the past, where only the infected roam. In the ruins of Subic Bay Freeport and Olongapo City, one man remains-a ghost in a dead city. Richard "Ric" Ramirez was left behind when his family escaped. The last time he saw them, the docks were burning, the infected closing in, and he was out of bullets. He should have died. He should have turned. But he didn't. Now, months later, Ric has become something else. A predator. A hunter. A man with a single purpose-wipe out every infected in his city. In the ruins of his family's 500-square-meter compound in Gordon Heights, he has built his own fortress. Every day, he hunts, scavenges, and kills, determined to take back what was lost. But the dead are not the only enemies. Across the sea, in the Palawan Military Refugee Zone, his wife Cat, his daughter Sam, and his son Teo have found sanctuary-but at a cost. The government has fallen. The military, under General Miguel Cortez, has seized power, ruling with an iron fist. His right-hand man, Colonel Enrique Villanueva of Project Sentinel, hides dark secrets-secrets that may hold the key to why Ric never turned. The world believes Ric Ramirez is dead. They are wrong. Now, whispers spread across the ruins. Survivors speak of a lone warrior, a phantom in the streets, a man who refuses to die. When Ric learns the truth about Palawan-about the danger his family faces-he will do the impossible. He will bring war to the dead, to the living, to anyone standing in his way. From the ashes of a fallen world, a legend will rise. He is the Lone Survivor. [This is Book 4 of the Dark Waters Universe.]
