Contraindication, de literaturelexi

[WATTYS 2022 SHORTLIST] "Hello again, Pizza Boy?" I glanced up at him with a smile. The blood was rushing out my head but it didn't bother me. "Are you back to make another attempt on my life?" "Shut up," he fumbled, absolutely petrified. "I-I hate you!" I laughed as we were both red in the face; one more sticky then the other, "Aww, I hate you too." My hands held my non-beating chest. "It's mutual trust me. But I guess you really want your Xbox back huh?" -- 17 year-old Evelyn Gates has a quiet yet witty personality. She usually stays in the background and is mediocre at literally everything... just ask anyone. She enjoys the smell of pizza and watching Guy Fieri stuff his face with food in her free time. Oh, and there's one more thing... she's immortal. That's right, Evelyn can't die, and she doesn't know why. Her body just magically puts itself back together again after tragic incidents. She calls it a curse, but the one other person who knows about it calls it a miracle. It's not until her pizza order turns deadly and her mom's boyfriend changes his outlook on life, when Evelyn finds out that there might be some more people involved with her immortality; people who are puppeteering her life and will stop at nothing but to destroy her. - Featured on: @TeenFiction 'FunnyBones' reading list: October 6th, 2021 @StoriesUndiscovered 'The Power of Laughter' reading list: June 1st -30th, 2021 -- Since mock websites are becoming more common, unfortunately, I have to give the disclaimer that this story is only being published on Wattpad.

Burning Stars | Tony Stark x OC, de AaliyahCohen-Stark

Lyra Thorne was never supposed to be in the spotlight. A quantum physicist with a haunted past and a mind that outpaced the greatest minds of her generation, she spent most of her life buried in lab work and theoretical anomalies-until an experiment meant to stabilize quantum energy tore open a cosmic rift and changed her forever. Now bound to the Phoenix Force-an ancient, living entity of pure creation and destruction-Lyra is more than human. She is power incarnate. And that makes her a threat. When Tony Stark learns of Lyra's condition during the early days of his transformation into Iron Man, he's drawn to her-not just for her brilliance, but for the fire she hides behind sharp words and calculated restraint. As the Avengers rise, fall, and rise again, Lyra stands beside them-not always in the headlines, but always where it counts. From the battlefields of New York to the time-bending war against Thanos, Lyra walks the line between control and collapse. She is both weapon and salvation. But the Phoenix Force is not silent. And as Tony confronts his own legacy, Lyra must face a terrifying truth: the greatest threat to the universe may be the power inside her. In a world of gods, geniuses, and monsters, what happens when the most dangerous entity in the cosmos falls in love with the one man who dared to change?

Vengeful Creations || ONC 2021, de MarCafeWrites

🏆 ONC 2021 Ambassador's Pick, Shortlister, & HONORABLE MENTION To the outside world, young novelist Cristina Castillo appears to have nothing but success. With four published works under her belt, she is a literary wunderkind. But behind closed doors, she has a secret shame: countless notebooks filled with unfinished stories. Cristina's waking mind is plagued with the underdeveloped characters, incomplete plots, and cliché themes of her countless abandoned and discontinued tales. So many dreams, forgotten. While attending the release party for her latest published novel, Cristina comes face-to-face with none other than the protagonist of one of her most beloved (and unfinished) passion projects. He tells Cristina that he wants an ending for his story. And he warns her: he is not her only forsaken character seeking fulfillment. As Cristina's vengeful creations begin coming out of the woodwork, she is plunged into the depths of her very vivid and expansive imagination. A journey of humor, adventure, terror, and startling self-discovery ensues as Cristina tries to return to reality. She soon learns, however, that the only way to escape the fictional worlds she dreamed into being is to appease her creations by writing their endings. *Rated MATURE for language 32,000+ words ☆☆ FEATURED STORY ~ Eight Times!! HIGHEST RANKINGS ~ #2 Hamlet #4 Edgar Allan Poe #5 Writer's Block #6 Open Novella Contest 2021 #14 Shakespeare #42 Alice in Wonderland
