In a not-so-distant future, the world has been divided. The prospering countries label themselves as Zones, while the defeated are left behind to fend for themselves.

Sixteen-year-old Jaxon "Jax" Evans belongs to Zone 3, previously known as the United Kingdom. And like the unaffected survivors, he is arrogant and lavishes his privileges. This soon might change when his mother sends him to Zone 1, formerly known as Japan.  Unlike the other Zones, Zone 1 takes humility and discipline rather seriously.

Still thinking he has no reasons to change, Jaxon does what he does best: being a brat. Fate laughs at him as a mysterious and quiet child named Eien tells him he is a dangerous person. And the kid might be right. Luckily for him, he finds a group that can teach him how to control his raw power. Or is he indeed lucky when anyone could be his enemy?

Run away from everyone you ever cared about." +++++++++++++ Jessie Daniels is just like you. She uses reading as an escape from her average, bookworm life.

Her parents, known as the country's best cops, aren't who they say they are. Suddenly, a simple game turns into Earth's greatest heart-stopping battle between two of the world's most dangerous men. Both are ruthless gang leaders who each rule a dominant continent: Asia and North America, and stop at nothing to get what they want. And they want Jessie Daniels.

My Kingdom Come Book 1: The Saints We See (Complete) by ShadOLeerie

Do your genes, your parents, teachers, or your master determine who you will be in life? Can they set your value in the universe? 650 years ago the known species of the universe came together and signed the Alliance, a document that would help each race find its place in the universe. It granted freedom to some and the scant protection of slavery to others. Into this society a handful of children are born who will change it forever, if they can survive to adulthood. Here is the origin story of two of those children. Hathu is born to a man determined to make the universe bow to him and his species. Since he learned to talk, Hathu has been a disappointment to his father. He doesn't want to become a warrior, and he refuses to assert his dominance. When he accidentally overhears his father plotting against the Ir'Klahn empire, can Hathu stop him? Mik is born with no rights, destined to become a lifelong slave. His mother tries to protect him from this fate by running away and finding a home for them on a trading ship that travels from world to world. They are safe for now, but how long can they hide from the best trackers in the universe? This is the first book in the My Kingdom Come series. Updates every Tuesday. :) My 2021 Nanowrimo so please excuse the unedited condition of the story. Be warned: there is violence, rape, murder, abuse, self harm and suicidal thoughts in this story.

When Confidence Collides by MidnightRain0

COMPLETE [22/3/21] "That dancing was pretty impressive. Some may even say kinda hot," he lowly whispered into my ear. My breath caught in my throat; my eyes widened at his choice of words. I didn't know he was here let alone watching me. "Who's to say the show wasn't especially for you?" I breathed back into his ear. Ivy Smith, a twenty year old sarcastic, strong minded, confident and independent woman, who's world is turned upside down when she finds her boyfriend cheating on her with her best friend on their one-year anniversary. Jace Black, a twenty-one year old with a caring nature, beautiful blue eyes, and a past. His extremely good-looking exterior and confident demeanour leads you to think of him as your typical bad boy with a motorbike, but there is much more to him than just that. Ivy finds herself intrigued by Jace and his crystal blue eyes and gentle but cocky personality. Jace likes her outspoken and fiery ways. But one thing they have in common is their pasts never fail to torment them to this day. What will happen when their two worlds collide? Will they conquer the haunting troubles of their pasts or will they allow their pasts to control and dictate the future? A story about love, trust and the past. 🥇- Teen Fiction in Cherry Blossom Awards 2021 🥇- Romance in Hall of Fame Awards 2021 🥇- Best blurb in The Glow Awards 2021 Best: #1 in confidence #1 in comedy #2 in slow burn #2 in funny #2 in rising #2 in chick lit #3 in british #4 in newadult #8 friendship #11 in grief

Long Story Short, The Condom Broke ✔️ by prinses1010

There's a story behind every person. There's a reason why they're the way they are. They aren't just like that because they want to. Something in the past created them, and sometimes it's impossible to fix them. Everly Adams has a different story than most teenagers would like to admit. She's stepping into a new phase of her life with just her older sister to care for her. Life can get a little bit tricky if you just got kicked out of the house. Why? Just keep on reading my dear reader. Liam Wells has a cliché story. He's rich, school's bad boy, leader of the D&D's ( Devils Deciple ) and he's got the looks of course. But no cliché boy has a story like his. It all starts with a chicken nugget. It's amazing what a chicken nugget can do. Follow the rollercoaster that's waiting for the both of them. Drama, loss and humor all combined in one adventure. This is : Long Story Short, The Condom Broke By: prinses1010 Word count (108,000 words) Currently being edited!!!

LAW OF ATTRACTION by feufeu15

Newton needed an apple to discover the Law of universal attraction. I needed Alex Carter to discover the attraction. Alex Carter, THE BAD BOY. Do I need to say more? Probably not, because everyone knows him. He's the typical bad boy with bad behavior, leather jacket, and that dark aura that makes almost every girl drool over him, along with the fact that he is strong, handsome, with brown hair, tattoos, and a smolder look that can set you on fire. But he's also known for fighting, dealing drugs, vandalism, and so much more that make everyone fear him. He screams Danger. He is Danger. Me, Elena, on the other hand, I'm a nerd. Do I need to say more? Well, there isn't much to say. Nobody knows me. I'm invisible. I always play it safe and follow the rules. I have two friends, and I've been bullied several times because I'm shy, awkward, clumsy, and I have good grades, attributes that don't really help in high school. Everything separates us, or so it seems, yet an irresistible attraction pulls us together. People will say 'opposites attract', but maybe we have more in common than we've thought, and that's what draws us together... Like 2 free electrons, will our encounter result in a rare, beautiful, perfect balance, or will it cause a ravaging explosion? Warning for strong language and mentions, and some steam in the chapters.... ;) _______________________________________ Ranked #1 in #TeenFiction on May 20, 2020, and June 26, 2022 Featured in Wattpad BadassReads' The Badass King reading list THE FALL AWARDS 2021 (ContemporaryLit) Winner of Ambassadors Picks in Romance WRITER'S GLORY AWARDS 1st Place Winner in Teen Fiction PHOENIX AWARDS 2019 Winner of People Review in Romance THE CUPID AWARDS VALENTINE'S EDITION Winner of Cupid's favorites THE ATLA AWARDS Winner in Romance

Earth, After ✔️ by talia-v

Some fates are worse than death--survival is one of them. In the two hundred years since humanity left the Earth's surface to live in the sky, life on the ground faded to a myth, a tragic memory from which they severed themselves to survive. They floated above continents turned to sand and lands swallowed by the seas, watched storm after storm rage against their cities and their monuments until they broke apart the last vestiges of civilization in penance for generations of human greed. As a lightning harvester charged with flying her ship into these storms for energy, Raina has seen more of the planet than most. She has spent her entire life soaring above its craters and scars, studying the gaping wounds of human devastation, as she honed her skills and became the youngest captain in storm-chaser history. Her ship has flown for generations. Her skills are unparalleled. But none of that matters the day they go down. ~ Praise for Earth, After: "I'm so not ready for this ending. I will reread this for sure. It's honestly my favourite work on wattpad ever, and among my best reads in general, it's insane. I love your creativity!" "Sometimes tearing my eyes away from the page is torture. Gosh...!!!!" "This is literally a movie - the images are so clear!" "oh my god... it has been such a long adventure [...] Youve dried up your surviving characters until the very last drop before giving the end, and my, Im speechless. Out of this world." ~ Highest rank: #17 in Adventure 25/08/19 #21 in Science Fiction 16/11/19 #24 in Action 01/01/20 Trident Awards Winner Trident Awards Judges' Favourite Award The Aurora Awards 1st Place in Science Fiction Wattpad Chronicle monthly feature April 2020

Midnight Falls by RealPerryThePlatypus

When you're a seventeen-year-old girl with anxiety disorder and a gorgeous, popular girl that absolutely hates your guts for who-knows-what reason bullying you whenever she gets the chance, Anna Falls has no choice but to face reality.... her life sucks. But the little sparks of hope that build up her optimistic, bright soul convince her otherwise. She will always think of one thing and that there is hope in life. Maybe even a goal. It might not be visible now, but she knew that it became as clear as a bell when she ran into Luke Carter. Twice. In one day. Second time being literally into him. -- "How about fifty-fifty?" I offer in ragged breaths. "We could have just done this from the beginning," he replies, breathing heavily. We both chuckle. I gaze into his green eyes. "Your eyes are really beautiful," I blurt out. "I know," he smirks. "Are you always that egotistic?" "It depends," he answers, pushing my hair behind my ear. I smile at him. "You're welcome then." "I never said thank you." "And I said you're welcome. Are we done, Catherine Obvious?" -- #3 in annoying: 11/18/2020 #39 in teenagers: 01/03/2021 #8 in disorder: 01/12/2021 #110 in romance: 01/19/2021 All media used within the cover does not belong to me, but belongs to the app Canva.

He Promised Forever And Always {#Wattys2018} by tyragathers

I walk out my dorm building to the cafe. Just as I'm about to open the door I hear a person call out my name. I turn around to see the person jogging towards me. Hey that person kind of looks like Jase. Wait a minute... That is Jase. "Jase?!" I ask. "What the hell is wrong with you? Why would you just leave and not tell anyone?! And do you honestly think I wouldn't follow you?" Jase says. I don't answer I just stand there like an idiot with wide eyes and an open mouth. Shock takes over my body and I begin to feel sick. I left my hometown two days ago and traveled almost 8 states away. But standing right here in front of me is the person that I was running away from. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ #54 in Chicklit **WON WATTIES RETRY AWARDS!!** *****Current Cover by @writersblock924***** *****Previous Cover by @LuminouslySkyler ***** *****Banner made by @writersblock924 :) Go check out @RoyalCourtAwards Graphic Shop to get your own banners and covers!!!***** First published March 27th, 2013

uninvited by ShawMcKnight

Is the end of the world near? The answer to that might be closer than we thought. One thing is for sure, the world as we knew it is gone. We thought we were alone in the universe. We were wrong. They came uninvited. I certainly didn't invite him into my life. His kind are lifeless with no emotions to speak of. He's incapable of offering any true feelings so why can't I look away from him? How is it that I know whenever he walks into a room? Should we take the lifeline they offer? Are they the enemy or can we trust them? They have the power to save us or destroy us. He has power to save me or destroy me.
