Ruled by the Quintbach family for over three hundred years, Cantovière is perceived to be a place anyone would wish to live in. Little did the people know, ever since the rule of King Valer from the sixth generation of the Quintbach bloodline, the tyranny of their family started - and it continued to exist up until its current ruler, King Dante Quintbach.
    
Citizens are to believe that they are still living in a paradise established hundreds of years ago. They seem unsuspecting of the corruption and the suffering of the silenced people oppressed by the government for the gain of power. Some of them who do know, though, continue to turn a blind eye in fear of being punished. Cantovière's people were living in fool's paradise for decades.
    
But, not every one of them is as ignorant and afraid as the others. Two of the largest resistances arose the following years - the Bane Federation, which seeks anarchy, and The Revolution, which seeks to dethrone the Quintbachs and bring forth a new ruler.
    
Following the death of his sister, Astrid - the former leader of The Revolution - Waltz Baltazar believes that it isn't worth it for the group's members to risk their lives for uncertainty. Reforming the revolt for a group consisting of only five members, he seeks out to recruit the greatest of the greatest in the city.
    
Consisting of a cunning mastermind, an empathetic charioteer, a neglected inventor, a wanted thief, and the one person least expected to join in, the five seek out to free the city from the Quintbach's grasp once and for all.

The High Class of Europe. Or should I say the vampires? Everybody knows they exist, yet it is an unspoken rule to stay silent about them. You wouldn't want to risk one of them hearing you talk bad about them. The punishment for something as simple as that is unspeakable. The Vampires have built an empire from the dirt of London and have reigned for thousands of years. They continue to drag terror everywhere they step. Now in every high class, there's the low respected, middle of the pack, and the elites. Obviously, none are as interesting as the Elites of society. The cremé of the crop. Allow me to introduce you to Zara Delcour, Kaspian Auclair, Mackenzie Rousseau, and Nox Toussaint, the most powerful young adults of them all. And the great thing is? They're not going anywhere. But people are always looking for the next best thing or the next biggest deal. Alliances are formed. Threats are made. And it's all one big game of chess. + Due to harsh imagery, descriptive visuals, possible triggering moments, and certain mature themes in this novel, it is rated MATURE. There will be trigger warnings at the start of the chapters where mature scenes are held for those of you who would prefer to skip over them! (I cannot guarantee that you won't miss something crucial to the novel in those scenes.)

Family Comes First by CRAZY40429

Being alone? Check. Being afraid? Check. Being abused? Check times 3. Honestly, my life wasn't this bad before, not until I ended in foster care... SIKE! My life was always bad. From the moment I was born, I lived with an abusive father who blamed me for my mother's death, and even I couldn't disagree with him. Here are a few questions I am constantly asked: 'Do I do well in school?' No, are you kidding me? The only subject I'm good at is Visual Arts. 'Do I have a kind and caring family?' No, I don't think I do. 'Do I have anyone who cares about me?' No, I'm a loner and socially awkward. 'Do I have privileges?' No, if you haven't understood the message yet, I live in an abusive household. Now, you might ask if there are any questions the answer is yes. I'll give you some. 'Do I want to die?' Yes, I sometimes do. 'Do I feel alone in this world?' Yes, always. 'Do I get a beating every day?' Yes. *** This is Amara Williams, a 13 year-old with average grades and no friends. What happens when her only guardian, her dad, is dead? What happens when she finds out that she has five older brothers who are not only strict and demanding, but also protective assholes? More importantly, what happens when she finds out that she was taught lies from the moment she was born? Follow Amara as she digs deeper into her family history, uncovering the secrets and discovering the lies. ___ ⚠️ Trigger Warning ⚠️ There will be mentions of abuse, r@pe, self harm, death, and many other dark themes. I have given a warning now, and I will give a TW in each chapter when reading for safety reasons.

Stalemate | A Rise To Power by -sunsett

"In a land of enemies and betrayal, only the strongest can survive." BOOK ONE OF THE 'QUEENS AND PAWNS' SERIES »»-----　♔　-----«« A story can begin when the balance between protagonist and antagonist is tipped, and even the most noble flinch away from chivalry. It can begin when spies lurk in every nook and cranny while people's loyalties grow frailer, or when enemies murmur among each other with rumours of an impending war. The story has already begun when the rightful king of the South is cast from his throne by a usurper and forced into exile. It has begun when people take up arms and call for war in his name. It has already begun when trust proves scarce, especially as the East and West remain unresponsive against it all; when even the most oblivious can sense the beginnings of a war emerging on the horizon. The story can turn down another path when King Lucian of the North refuses to acknowledge the notion of war. He knows that if war truly began, his attempts at peace amid the massacre would be futile. While he remains trapped in a cage of denial, an enemy in the shadows starts to don armour. »»-----　♔　-----«« Credits to @km_sandoval for the cover RUNNER UP FOR THE CREATIVITY AWARDS 2019 FIRST PLACE IN THE PAPER AWARDS 2020 FIRST PLACE IN THE BELLES LETTRES AWARDS 2020 JOINT FIRST PLACE IN THE BUTTERFLY AWARDS 2020 WINNER IN THE PASSION AWARDS 2020

Blood Renegades by ACTVAwrite

[COMPLETE] The country of Edalbire used to be a peaceful place, ran by a husband and wife king and queen, however when their youngest child took over the throne by not so legitimate means, he turned the country from a peaceful and beautiful land to a dark land that he rules over with an iron fist and now it's up to the Blood Renegades to not only overthrow the king but also place the rightful heir back on the throne. One of the Blood Renegades however...has a secret that if found out, will have catastrophic consequences not only for them but for the entire country of Edalbire. If I was to give this an age rating, I'd give it a 16+ for the violence and swearing.

The Silver Fighter | ✓ by LiseR05

"I already killed your mother, Cam." As the words left my enemy's mouth like a mocking sneer, I growled under my breath at the mention of my old name. Memories started to boil up that I had been wanting to squash deep into my heart. Bad memories. "As you can guess, I'm here to finish the job." He continued with that ever-present sinister smirk on his face. And in that moment, a sudden burst of confidence just appeared within me. Or blatant stupidity. 'I'll take either one.' I silently admitted to myself. I rolled my eyes at his so-called 'threat', not really intimidated in the least. "Yeah, like that went so well the first time. The first time, you fucked up enough to get caught by the police." I pointed out. "The second time, your grown-ass men got their asses handed to them by two teenagers." I snorted at him. "Your odds aren't looking too good here, Berti." ~•~ Losing her father? Lovely. Getting in a car accident with her aunt, uncle, and cousin and being the sole survivor? Fantastic. Losing her mother because a deranged psychopath holds a grudge even better than The Grinch? Amazing. Being ostracized from her own family save from her paternal grandparents, and getting the blame for her mother's death? Cherry on top of the cake. Having to make sure three idiotic twats don't get themselves killed because they couldn't mind their own bloody business? Bloody hell, that's an entire ice cream cake with ten pounds of gummy bears. ~•~ Join Grace Stanton as she faces her demons and the demons of her past all while trying not to commit murder against her three new friends. Fun times. (First book in the Gilded series) ~•~ [#1 Streetracer - 4/21/21] [#1 Gangs - 9/16/21] [#1 Boxer - 9/12/21] [#1 Fighter - 12/11/21] [#2 Boxing - 9/3/21] [#1 Girlpower - 2/12/21]

Home Is Where The Heart Is - A Fighting Chance by graceful_pen

"... So maybe I did do it!" he mumbled, looking aimlessly at the ground. "Do what? Jumped us away in time?" "Wha...? How did you know I was going to say that?" "Well, first of all, last night you had this bright light around you, and then, the the next thing I knew, we wound up here. Then, while you were passed out, I looked a bit around. And by all indications, this is the exact same place we were at when we crashed. It just looks different: no asphalt roads, no city lights, no cell phone signal. And third, I just saw a ship at sea, which looked like the damn Mayflower! So I figured it can only mean one thing: we are in the past!" ************************************************ As they are about to experience a fatal car crash, LA surgeon Diego Perez and his wife Louise get sent back in time to the 19th century. It turns out that Diego has the ability to time-travel, and though he can not fully control it, this is not his first time doing it. The two get sent to the timeline of Diego's youth, three months after his mysterious disappearance when he was twenty years old. Now, at a much more mature age, but with a still youthful appearance, he is forced to take things up where he left them, with an upcoming wedding to his pregnant fiancée and much unresolved business as the town protector, Zorro. But he has his modern-day wife with him, who has her own connections to this place and time, and things get more complicated by the day. Will he be able to figure out how to get his wife back home? Will their love endure the test of the time travel? Will they manage to navigate the rough waters of their existence in the 19th century? Word Count approx. 86000.

Calathea by _reichii

For what reason does one wake up every day? People had always thought the life of ISAAC RUIZ couldn't be more perfect. Everything he wanted, he would get with his money and influence. What anyone didn't know was his real motivation to keep on living -- something that was silly for others, but a salvation for him. For office employee FLORENCE VILLENA, there was no longer any meaning to his existence. Nothing could fill the void he had been experiencing inside him anymore, and he was convinced the world was better off without him in it. At twenty-eight years old, LAURENCE VILLEGAS had a lot of reasons to wish to just sleep forever. Since losing his home and family, the universe had rarely been kind to him. And yet, he chose to survive, time and again, if only for the hope of seeing his life get a little better. On Friday the thirteenth of January 2023, fates began to entangle as Laurence died, Florence killed himself, and Isaac lost his reason to live. Nine months after the incidents, a new dawn fell upon those three lives when a dead man's soul reawakened in someone else's body. Set in a fictional Asian City called Perlientas. Mature topics: deaths, including self-killing (actual scene not depicted), mental health and other social issues, character thoughts that some may find disturbing or triggering. Despite those themes, the overall story's pretty tamed. Featured on: @Romance [Romantic Suspense] | September 2024 𝑷𝒂𝒅𝒂𝒖𝒌 𝑴𝒊𝒏𝒊 𝑨𝒘𝒂𝒓𝒅𝒔 𝑭𝒊𝒓𝒔𝒕 𝑷𝒍𝒂𝒄𝒆 - 𝑩𝒆𝒔𝒕 𝑷𝒐𝒕𝒆𝒏𝒕𝒊𝒂𝒍 𝑪𝒂𝒕𝒆𝒈𝒐𝒓𝒚

He did not move from the spot where he stood. He did not hear Jace calling out to him. He did not notice the key slip from his fingers, making a little clang on the cobblestone floor. The only thing that crossed his mind were the words that he whispered out loud.

There was to be a big celebration in her honor, everyone from around the kingdom was to be there, near and far, including her best friend Theo Serpentine.

Along the way, she runs into old friends and meets some new as well as enemies that she cannot see. As her eighteenth birthday draws near, she waits for when she can take back the throne, but as she has come to learn first-hand, nothing ever goes as planned. ***Completed on Wattpad; May 8, 2020*** ***Published on Wattpad: January 21, 2020*** ***Completed: December 26, 2019*** ***Created: February 28, 2019***
