dystopia dystopian fiction generalfiction greatbritain king london monarchy prince revolution romance royalty teenfiction thief thieves youngadult

To save their society from falling apart at the hands of their greedy ruler, two of London's youth will go to any and all lengths. 
Tawny Mattingly and her partner-in-crime Bentley Evans are thieves. They've adapted to the injustices of living in the Great Britain of the late 2800s, from the sporadic tax collections to the brutality of the king's men who line the streets. But when a chance meeting with three helpful allies inspires a revolution, the two become dangerously attached to the illusion of a pristine and perfect way of life.  And still, sacrifice after sacrifice is made to no avail. Tawny is left shattered, and so is her nation. 
Adamant, Tawny is caught between continuing the battle and letting her despair consume her. Her odyssey is a difficult one, but she's determined to see it through, to the very end.

The Venus Trap - COMPLETED (The 1st Installment of The Derek Welsh Trilogy) by NailaFauzia9

In a post-apocalyptic world where human civilization has been renewed and altered, a private detective Derek Welsh, accepted a missing girl case from his friend, he didn't expect to be caught up in a tangled and deadly web of an organized crime group, The Underground, which has infiltrated the city and all its layers, including the law enforcement. By then, corpses of young girls started appearing all over the city. They were brutally raped, tortured and murdered. Derek, his partner Rita, must join forces with the police, including Derek's lover Captain Patricia Gisborne and an ex-junkie, Chester, who was involved in transporting one o the missing girls. All of them must face mortal peril because The Underground will stop at nothing to keep their claws in. New Chapters uploaded every week! I have started this book about two years ago. I have always wanted to write a book that I want to read and I love crime stories with a touch of darkness. The characters that I created are not perfect. They all have flaws, just like all of us and I love to play with those flaws. I created them by heart and my love to them is equal. The word I created in this story sets in a distant future, where humans were survivors of a gargantuan apocalyptic disaster. It changes the way of living but in some aspects, but humanity stays the same. The cycle repeats itself and you can always find similarities. I own all the copyrights of these stories and I will take matter seriously to plagiarism. I hope that you enjoy my stories and can be entertained by them. Happy Reading !

Ms. Roberta is a big help; she protects over my Giselle without any questions and I pay her when I can. "Let's go, you know what you have to do!" Adam and I left the apartment. We met up with my father and brother as my stepmother sat in the driver's seat of the truck. "Put this on and take this!" Josiah hands me a black ski mask and a gun, I check the gun then look between them. ---------------------- Marnie Taylor grew up in North Philadelphia with the assumption that she had always been given away by her mother at a young age.

Unproven by B_L_A_Z_E

SHADOW IS AZH'NAHN, A POWERLESS MAGE born into a culture that prides itself in sharing the earth's powers. When he chooses a life of voluntary exile to preserve his family's honor, Shadow receives a mysterious call to witness the unearthing of kotrakoy, treacherous telepathic beasts with four wings and four rows of teeth. As he watches their unholy resurrection with great horror, kotrakoy open their minds to his and offer a glimpse into what life would be like wielding a mage's powers. As Shadow races to warn his people of the impending threat, he discovers a mysterious Trayki woman hanging from the trees and on the verge of death. Uncertain what to do, Shadow initially hesitates to rescue this woman whose people embrace technology and eschew his culture. As Shadow tends to her glider crash wounds, the earth unites them in a soul bond, a sacred union that gives Shadow an unerring duty to protect and preserve her life. And that duty will be fraught with peril: Trayki troops begin bombing Hiwalani villages and while losses mount, magic evolves and Shadow's people lose their power. The Hiwalani must rely on inexperienced youth to master the new magic and stop enemy attacks. Desperate to save their people, few make any progress at all. Only the outcast azh'nahn seems to understand it - and very few trust his judgment. When Shadow believes he's unlocked the solution, it involves empowering the most deadly kotrakoy and risking the complete annihilation of his people. While his solution sounds reasonable in theory, there is no time to test it - it's UNPROVEN.

The Story of Jane by random_bookworms

Emma Sernine is a key figure in the Lyrell revolution. She's a close friend to the prince and his sister. And she's a strong minded duchess who worked through many nights to get to where she is now. This is the story of the girl who stole her spotlight. Jane Wilson wants nothing more than to live happy with her love, but a political issue stands between her white dresses and champagne. Having spent most of her adolescent life digging her father's dukedom out of it's debt ridden grave, she carved a reputation for her parents as irresponsible and money-addicted. But she is far from her father's daydream. Between maintaining a professional peace with her family and managing a failing revolution, her dreams are drifting farther and farther away. Not to mention the threats made to overthrow her position growing each day. If she refuses to concede, she could lose everything. But surrendering, an option growing like a parasite in her mind, could very well mean the downfall of her people. *Shortlisted for The Smoothie Awards 2021 **A/N: I'll be honest this entire book was written just for me. It was a very stressful exam month and I just wanted something stupid that didn't matter if it amounted to nothing. So yeah, don't worry if it doesn't make much sense. It's not meant to.

At first I thought I'd pick something a bit out of my comfort zone (so.... NOT SciFi for once...) to expand my horizon, but when I saw a prompt about time travel I was immediately inspired. Please keep in mind, all of this is WIP! The title, cover, and some of the content might change at any time... I have an outline and I worked hard to come up with a compelling and consistent story line, but due to the nature of the story (timey whimey stuff!) I might have to revise things a few times as I write. I'm grateful for any feedback and I hope you enjoy :)

Of Blood and Duty by WhiteGoldFangs

Wattpad Exclusive! Nearly beaten to death, a man wakes up in a place he does not know. Neither can he remember how he even ended up there. Waking up in the middle of a road he discovers a world of pain only to drift off into unconsciousness again. His body having been crushed and broken beyond his wildest dreams. Falling out of consciousness from the pain, he later wakes up in a bed. A new place he does not know, but being looked after by someone. A woman. Why was he in the care of this beautiful but strange person? How had he ended up in her care? Why had she taken him in and why was she and everyone else so guarded around him? Determined to make his way back home, wherever that may be, the man soon realizes that things are not as easy as he first had thought. Learning to fit in with the people who took him in at the brink of death, he learns that a war is raging between two kingdoms, and which one he belongs to, he cannot remember... if he belongs with to any of them. All he has to remind him of his life before is a sword with a crest of two lions on its pommel... and a woman named Jade who screams for him in his sleep. This is a spin off of The Prince's Choice and Hunted Queen. I recommend reading those two before this one to get the best experience possible!
