"How can I trust you? You are a villain after all."
"That's all the more reason to trust me."
"How?"
"While a hero would sacrifice you to save the world, a villain would sacrifice the world just to save you."

No Superheroes Allowed
Long ago a group of superheroes and villains worked together to prevent an invasion. But they managed to kill more people than they saved. Their destruction caused the perception of those with powers to dramatically shift; to the point of outcast. 50 years later crime has increased to the point where not even the police respond to calls. Few heroes went into hiding to 'play normal'; like my family and I. I live in New Haven City. I've been lucky enough that I don't have powers that attract too much attention --- Everything was going great. Everything was normal. Until Jamie was forced to confront the reality of her situation. The mayor who has been running the NSA was beginning to take drastic measures. Sending many supers off to another island. Stealing their powers. Forcing others to betray their own kind. The victims of these horrific acts are not taking that lightly. Why not make a team of heroes? A team that doesnt give a shit what the NSA or the Mayor has to say. A team of young teens who probably don't even listen to each other. That will save the world...Complete
Half Hero ⚡️ {Superhero Adventure Scifi}
I should be dead. At least, that's what the government officials told me in the super-secret lab where I woke up strapped to a mattress in a windowless room...Sound problematic to anyone else? Like I told the psychos experimenting on me, I've got zero clue how I got my new powers, but I'm sure-as-shit not going to let them turn me into a deadly weapon (or squeeze me into a spangly jumpsuit). Problem is, I'm not so great at controlling whatever the hell it is I've become...Not to mention I'm on the run from my country for a teensy-weensy act of treason while being chased by a shadowy masked mute who may or may not have superhuman abilities too (but is definitely stupid hot under his off-putting disguise). I'm only 25 and my career choices have been limited to hero or villain. WTF?!? Indie Author Fangirl Moments: 1. SHORTLISTED FOR A 2021 Watty (WTF?!?) 2.

The perfect timing (In Editing)
I'm not like wonder woman, supergirl or catwoman. The only similarity we share is that we all have an extraordinary ability and are females. Many people would say having superpowers was a gift from god and the best thing that could ever happen to you. But not for me, being able to freeze time was more of a burden, because I couldn't control it and it had the worst timing to appear. I also didn't think about being a superhero and rescuing the world from the bad. The only thing I want is to be left alone and get over with my last year of high school. But of course everything came different and it all started with me attracting accidentally the attention of Reece Matthews. (cover made by Cjc8357)Complete

She has bigger plans: to stop the pollution choking her city-planet, and she joins the same secretive organization to start taking things into her own hands. The only thing Kara and Zadia have in common is that they have superpowers. But for better or worse, they're stuck with each other as their missions get deadlier and the web of secrets about supers gets tangled deeper. Cover by @Ferret-bird.Complete
Super Girl: The Unexpected Kryptonian (I)
I never given any thought to of being a hero. Let alone help Kara and Kal-El save a few dozen people, go through a breached portal from time to time and meet The Flash, Green Arrow, and Batwoman or even travel through time. I thought keeping a low profile at L-Corp would be easy but it has been anything but. I DO NOT OWN ANY CW & DC'S SUPER GIRL CHARACTERS, Except Nala, Jude, and the Vel-Tem & Velez family characters.

Stories Of The Night Sky: book 1. (rename of Amazing Iris)
Iris had always felt as if she shouldn't exist. Yet also as if the universe hadn't figured out she was alive yet. But now, the universe has caught up and is trying to fix what was never meant to be. 'I-I didn't mean to hurt her! Iris wasn't supposed to be involved...' I stared at her unconscious body. The bleeding had stopped but, the feeling in my gut hadn't. The feeling of guilt.

But she was. And now I have to keep her alive. Do what I couldn't last time... We were never meant for love, but I love her. How could it work? Love was forbidden against the royalty! The children would be too strong. She doesn't feel the same, she loves someone else. That someone else was also never meant to be born. (Now in editing. No new parts coming. read on Amazon soon!)
Super•Villainous
"I've been looking for you." There was an unexpected rasp to his voice, a hint of desperation. He stretched out one hand, as if to brush it across my cheek, or perhaps wrap it around my throat. Oddly enough, I didn't know which option frightened me more. *+*+*+* Lily Burdett has an unfortunate gift for getting herself into tricky situations, but her luck is especially bleak the day she finds herself in the destructive path of the city's premier supervillain. When he grabs ahold of her, she reacts without thinking and stabs him twice in the shoulder, only surviving the encounter thanks to a nearby hero who intervenes on her behalf. Unfortunately, her villain vows to get even. Everywhere she turns, he's there, and with each bizarre encounter more doubts fill her head as to his true intentions. *enemies to lovers/slowburnComplete
