This semi-comedic sci-fi novel functions as a bridge between book series and can be read as either a prequel to Dip$h!+s in Space season 3 (serving as additional background for the new Osirian crew) or as a sequel to the Heart of Osiris book. Adrian Michael Greggarious (AKA Greg) is exiled for war crimes and sentenced to time-pending years, under lock and key in a luxurious prison planet built for him. The Old, immortal overlord struggles with the change of pace, from galactic domination, to essentially just dicking around on an island. This old wardog doesn't retire without a fight, as he plots and plans his escape from his gilded cage of luxury to regain his empire through blood and power. The Osirian High Council, forced by his resistance and persistence must break out the ultimate weapon to pacify the beast...the woman who got away. Izleena Orrah Gravenstead Greggarious, his own daughter-in law, must break him and show the council he is no longer a galactic threat before he loses the last of his marbles and does something really stupid...again. 
      Something sinister looms in the darkness, plotting and simmering in the shadows of his paranoia. Is he sniffing out the real threat to his empire, or just driven insane by isolation, a slave to his own delusions and drug-educed hallucinations? The family is torn to sides, trying to decide if they must release the beast, or simply add more layers of security to his prison mansion, to save him from his own conspiracies.  Dive deeper into the Osirian Empire, and the warped existence of the hero that went from the chosen savior, to that one weirdo at family reunions everyone pretends they don't know. An empire on edge of war, an old man on the edge of sanity. Can Greg defeat his ultimate nemesis, his naggy B***h of a daughter-in-law, or is the real enemy watching from the darkness above?

[COMPLETED] War. Sacrifice. Two inevitabilities of human nature come together once more as the human race encounters its latest Great Filter. The Covenant. A genocidal alien alliance hell-bent on the utter destruction of man-kind. A theocratic society convinced that humanity is the only thing standing in its way between eternal damnation, and ascension to godliness. As humanity quickly realizes they're outmanned, outmatched, and outgunned they call on the young and vibrant to defend their way of life. Joseph Gray. An ordinary young man living an ordinary life finds his society crumbling apart at the seams due to an ever-intensifying plague of insurrection that seems to spread faster than it can be quelled. After joining the Marines to make a difference, to bring stability to his society, he soon realizes that he's no more than a minuscule cog in a very large machine. Harvest. A major farming colony at the edge of UNSC-controlled space goes offline. Just as Gray thinks he'll coast out his short-term service in the Corps, tragedy strikes, and a new player enters the field. Now Gray must desperately juggle the responsibilities of maintaining his relationship with the girl of his dreams, raising a future family, surviving the Covenant onslaught, and most of all: Keeping his humanity.

She is a monster, a nightmare, a killer, who dreams of an ancient battlefield and a different, brutal world where stars fall and dark blood stains the earth. Kye Merran is an Ember, one who wields fire magic. When a childhood friend shows up at his house with a strange girl who is bleeding black blood, he knows that he's getting into something he definitely shouldn't. Especially when the Dark King of Rurik, who may have much more to him than it seems, is looking to conquer another kingdom or two, preferably with a powerful, dark queen at his side. But Kye can't seem to stay away from the mysterious girl with the blood of Darkness. And Val can't stay away from Kye either, no matter how much she claims that she hates him. As Val, Kye, and their friends race to stop the Dark King and his approaching army, what they don't realize is that they are playing a part in an ancient, deadly game, a game between the light and the dark, one years in the making. But it is a game which neither of them can win, for their fates have already been determined by the desperate Gods, written in blood among the stars.

~PARAGON CINEMATIC UNIVERSE: PHASE 1, BOOK 2~ *This novel serves as a direct sequel to Viper's Bite. I'd suggest either reading it or at least getting a rudimentary understanding of it before beginning this one, or you're probably going to get confused.* It has been 2.5 years since The Viper foiled Dr. Drevis's plan atop the Mercury Heights Space Needle. However, due to the events of the previous novel, her reputation has taken a massive hit; the government has officially declared her a threat and are now sending agents after her, with Vivian O'Leary and her superior Miles Burnstone at the helm. To make matters worse, The Viper begins experiencing strange visions at random intervals that appear to be telling her something---but she has no idea what---and they're beginning to interfere with her job of being a superhero. After she receives a cryptic call from her grandmother, who claims to know the true origin of her powers while discrediting her initial story as false, she departs Mercury Heights for the first time and goes to visit her in Honolulu to find answers, leaving the city under the protection of a newly-reformed Duncan Drevis and his partner, The Crawler, in her absence. Things get complicated after she is directed towards an organization known as The Opulent, who appear to request her help, but secretly have much darker motives. Meanwhile, Duncan and The Crawler have turned over a new leaf and now serve as the joint heads of a massive innovation company known as Lifeline Industries, which specializes in fields such as genetic modification and robotics design. After Duncan's long-lost sister, Monica, is accidentally mutated into the supervillain Shocker following an electrifying lab incident and goes on a massive power trip, Duncan and The Crawler must set out to stop her before she kills the electricity to Mercury Heights for good. • Cover designed by @Castiment
The Grean Household by uninstalledproxy402
61 parts Complete Mature
"It was a mistake..." She told her mother, folding her hands into each other. "Marrying him..." Her mother said nothing, she simply sat there as her only daughter stood across from her, on the verge of collapsing from bruised ribs and cracked shins. "Mom." She wanted to reach out, softly tap her aging mother. Though that was the restriction of her life. The binding stereotype that she was gentle and slow to anger. In reality, what wanted to explode from her ribs was a scream of an animal, and the tears of repressed rage and fear. She wanted to throw her body onto the floor, but the thought made her damaged body ache more. There was no response from her mother. The deafening silence reminded her of her own quietness as her husband shouted at her, his fists bloody. He told her that she was only a tool for his amusement and a money-whore for her indigent family. She was nothing else but a tool for both parties. And she was starting to believe him. --------------------- Sarah Johnsen's life spirals from the normal gritty resilient fight to a serene wonderland. On the outside, she's married to a kind family with untold riches, but on the inside, her husband is the devil himself. Forcefully married at 18, Sarah was forced to kill her own dreams of becoming a doctor in order to bind her poor family to the rich bastards of Glendale by marrying their youngest; Oliver Grean. Their arrangement had the ability to brew the largest timespan of misery any of them has ever known. From lost toddlers to paid staged kidnappings, the binding of the two families, the Johnsen's and the Grean's created a mixture of chaos, confusion, sorrow, fear, grief, and dangerous rage. And there seems to be no haven to escape to. Or is there? (TW: Rape, molestation, abuse, kidnapping, abandonment, swearing, murder, drug use, suicide attempts/thoughts, necrophilia, fire; READ AT YOUR OWN RISK!) !-A series of lore for the Stratford Series (first installment is "Casanova")-!
