Please keep in mind this story is still in progress, and you can expect to find some typos and grammatical errors.

A novel inspired by Dante's Divine Comedy, Rise: The Ballad of Damien Fontaine. A story of love, hate, betrayal, and the bittersweet thought of the afterlife will tell the story of the difference between that of Heaven and Hell. The story is told through the eyes of Damien Fontaine, who, one night simply goes on a date with his beloved Alexandria. When their beverages arrive, she drinks, then collapses. Terrified, he embraces her once warm corpse. He then leans in to kiss her; but whatever poison was left on her dry lips gets on Damien's. A mysterious, deadly poison. Damien is confronted with Death. And once he refuses his fate and tries to escape, Death refuses to show mercy to Damien. Therefore he is damned to The Inferno, but no demon, no devil, no angel, and no God will stop him from reuniting with his love. Nothing will, because nothing can...

Amidst the Apocalypse war between humans and angels, Diletta, a disabled young woman, is on a mission to rescue the archangel commander she is in love with from a secret US military base, jeopardizing humanity's fate in the process. When Heaven's legions descended on Earth, the world rejoiced. But humanity's leaders refused to surrender their power to angels, and a war broke out that left civilization in ruins. Things seemed to turn in humankind's favor when the US army succeeded in capturing the commander of the celestial army and now holds him prisoner in an underground secret military base in New Mexico. Just before the angels arrived, Diletta moved to Rome from the States to start her life over, after a serious accident left her disabled and heavily depressed. Obsessed with Heaven's commander, she is hellbent on saving him, even though it could cost her her life as well as everybody else's. The guilt is eating her up, but she can't stop. Is Diletta blinded by the darkness of her past or is there something else going on? Is she truly in control of her actions or are there greater forces at play? With the help of unlikely allies - two zealot priests, a fallen angel, and an Apache delivery man - Diletta is on a collision course with destiny; on her way to rescue the man of her dreams and condemn everyone else. Prepare for a tale of faith and courage, where every step taken is a gamble, and every choice made carries unthinkable consequences. Dive into the mesmerizing dance between mortal longing and celestial desire as Diletta risks all to free the archangel general who holds her heart in chains. And maybe, just maybe, he's the one to set it free.

Would you sell your soul for fame? Adelaide did. Now the Devil is back, and he wants to make a new deal. Her soul in exchange for evidence that his son is breaking the law. But what happens when she finds herself falling in love with the Devil's son. Adelaide is caught between her past and present as her plan to uncover the truth starts to unravel. Unsure of her future, she fights to gain control of her life. • • • "Ms. Hepburn, we have a delivery for you," an assistant said nervously, a vase full of red roses in her hand. "Thank you, please just set them over there," I stated with a smile, pointing to an empty table next to my stuff. After she passed I looked over to the main entrance, there were multiple vases of roses. I went to the one that had a note pinned to one of the thorny flowers. It said 'Six hundred and sixty-six reasons that I want to see you again. - Lucius Stewart.' How did he even know I would be here? I was in complete shock. Six hundred and sixty-six flowers for six hundred and sixty-six reasons? He might as well have just tattooed 'Devil's Spawn' on his forehead. How could one man be so rich and so powerful, seemingly just as smart, but be so God damn cliche? It would've been more respectable for him to have put 'Hey! Can't wait to sixty-nine with you!' Might as well just introduce himself as his unholiness and tell everyone about all the souls he tortured during his childhood. I have six hundred and sixty-six reasons to want to make him fall in love with me so that I don't have to live in hell for all eternity. Un-fucking-believably stupid. Unless he's trying to mind game me and is trying to see if I'm just the stupid little model he thinks I am? • • • #84 ONC2020 #128 opennovellacontest2020 Made it to round 3! :)))

In ancient Greece around 750 BC, An angel fell in love with the kindest most beautiful young woman in the village, that his boss ordered him to protect. It was all kosher until they had a child.... It's modern-day now and Nathaniel has waited centuries for his love to be reborn into a recognisable form. Cassia, is on her journey to do her dream job in becoming a summoner, and learning more about spirit familiars and going to the Magical School of the Arts. Meanwhile, Lucifer- Lucian is waiting for a new Nephilim to be born to free him from his chains. How will they collide on their journeys to fulfil their wishes? A trilogy of Romance, sexy fun times, chaos and a bit of humour splashed in with extra tension to spice up the dry romance between our favourite couple... (Occasionally tackles sensitive themes in a humorous way but is up for debate as the people are fairly self-aware and rarely gets kinky... But anything mental health-related gets treated with respect. )
