Two worlds divided, Above and Below.

Home to the savage enemies of law and order, Below was born from the ruling world Above. The doppelganger of the original world. Once was an identical sister, Below evolved to inhabit the dirty, the ugly, and the criminals. A trade of the undesirables kept her twin clean and safe of havoc. A quantum mistake or a tragic war of the world. No one knows the true events that occurred. If you look overhead, in the distance beyond the clouds you will spot a city.

Gemini Crawford is challenged daily by the expectations of her fortunate family. Raised in wealth and glory, she finds herself torn between a perfect formulated life or risk the chance and discover a sui generis side of herself. A life in Above is dependent on successors, yet Gemini detests the consequence's of living for her worth. Something of her life must change and all it took was a little push.

Gemma Beckett has tried her entire life to be something more than scum. Without fail, the real world reminds her that she's an undesirable. But Below has taught her to have a rough shell, protected from the cruelty of the world, she devotes her life to heroic crimes. With masking effort and long nights, she borrows what man would overlook and turns it to gold. Some would call her a hero, a blessing in disguise, at the chance other's would put her head on a pike and rid the Below of the wicked. Nothing will stop Gemma from giving the people what they deserve, no matter what it takes.

What once was united, two worlds live in perfect discord.

L.O.V.E. by denissebloom04

100 years ago, amidst WW3's nuclear bombing, a deadly virus was released in the atmosphere and nearly wiping out the humanity. It lives inside the human brain thriving on the empathy receptors, leading to irrational behaviour and ultimately brain death. To slow the damage, scientists created L.O.V.E, short for Living Off Vital Emotions, a nanovaccine that numbs the virus and switches off all strong emotions. As a last resort and with a dying planet, the Supreme Government created the City, a place to contain the infected survivors suitable for the experiment. Those in the first stages of illness became ideal candidates to receive the neuroinhibitor. Having their feelings restrained and their memory altered, those who come of age are designated a life partner through a Selection process, thus preserving the humankind. A few decades after the trial had started, scientists had a major breakthrough. The nanites, which are highly chemically reactive organisms, are changing their bio-engineered purpose when dopamine levels are high. With a new generation of nanoids, stronger and smarter to fight the battle, the virus doesn't have a chance. Many attempts were made to create a man-made version of synthetic dopamine and each time the outcome was a disaster. Their goal is to create new generations, immune to the virus. These are called Purebloods, the offsprings of those who find pure love, the only cure to save them from a violent death. Running out of time, the Experiment entered in its final stages. To minimize the threats, the Colonies have sent their best soldiers to oversee the trial and protect its key subjects. If only things were going according to plan, or better...stay hidden. With Iron Guard, the resistance outside the walls, hunting the Purebloods too, will the trial save human race before it's too late? #3 in #dystopianfuture (27.06.2020)

Gemma Hart knows well enough what a gilded prison looks like. Paranoid due to the unsolved assassination of their parents, her brother had spent the last seven years ensuring she doesn't face the same fate. Trapped from the outside world, some simple privileges are things she's been kept from. For one, the chance to find her mate naturally. Just days after her twentieth birthday an invitation under her name crosses her brother's desk, carelessly swept away to keep from her curious eyes. An invitation to The Lotus Trials. The series of tests were rumored to be a struggle for the strongest, most agile warrior wolves. Her own father and brother had barely passed the final challenge. But what better chance did she have at proving she could forage her own path in the world outside the border? And how convenient it was that the trials were just days behind the mating ball. ~~~~~ Ezekiel Winters has felt himself slipping, day by day. After the loss of his mate, his grief-like so many others-has driven him to the brink. It's then that a life partner is demanded of him, as a second queen might save him from his darkening fate. Just as he begins to lose hope entirely he stumbles upon a peculiar girl who seems to be an oddity to be competing in the annual trials he hosts. Certainly far too different from his first mate for his wolf to be so drawn to, yet as The Lotus Trials continue on, further and further the king falls, raising a question filled with desperate hope. Can this girl banish his shadows at last? ~~~~~ BOOK ONE. UPDATE EVERY FRIDAY. ENJOY!

Fist slammed against the table and everyone turned to her, "I don't know about everyone else, but I'm not allowing my city to just sit and rot here. We're going to find those 12 kids we need. I don't care what it takes." She announced to the room. "Well, we have to find out what we're looking for here first, because I'm not letting some teenager screw up my decades of work." The brown haired man added from the corner of the table. "He's right, we need people who are responsible and corporate well together. Get Uranus to see if he could get us some profiles about them and we can all pick out one for each kingdom." Mercury always had the best ideas. "I like that, let's do that. That way everyone gets it fair and square and the fire kingdom won't rip each other to shreds trying to see who rules it all." Pluto agrees and everyone laughs knowing that's what would end up happening. "Ok, but just promise me that he's locked away and that the children are safe. I don't want another mistake like that again." I looked up at Jupiter and flinched when she mentioned 'him'. "Don't worry, everything will be just fine..." .......................................................... ⚠️⚠️⚠️WARNING⚠️⚠️⚠️ This book will include the following: - cussing - alcoholic/drug use - mild gore - mild sexual scenes - talk of mental health Most of these issues will have a warning before. .............................................

In a world veiled by secrets, twelve extraordinary agents, each bearing the name of a celestial sign, are the silent sentinels guarding against global chaos. Born of diverse nations, their paths have been shaped by tragedy, resilience, and an unyielding commitment to justice. From Tokyo's bustling streets to the sunlit canals of Venice, they have honed their unique skills in the shadows, becoming masters of combat, deception, and digital warfare. But this is no ordinary mission. When a faceless adversary emerges, threatening to unravel the fragile balance of power, these agents are drawn together into a treacherous web of conspiracy. Bound by their code names but separated by their pasts, they must navigate their differences to uncover a truth buried deep within the undercurrents of history. The Zodiac is about to face its greatest challenge-a race against time where loyalty, skill, and the power of human connection will be their only weapons against an invisible enemy. Darkness is rising, and the stars hold the key to survival. Will they unite under the constellations, or will the shadows consume them all?
