How many times must you die before you realize what you are living for?

*********************************************************
Ezlyn Graves has lost her mind. Literally! The inability to remember a single event after a drunken night leaves her mystified. To make matters worse, a cryptic text message revealing that she is an agent, presents a life she never knew existed.

Apparently, Ezlyn is a Guardian of the Death Guard, summoned by Death to locate the stolen scythe before the necrological order of demise is disrupted. But Ezzie didn't expect to be teamed up with devious miscreants thirsty for blood and seeking vengeance. In fact, she isn't at all prepared to learn that some of Death's own personal guards have gone missing, especially at a time when she has no recollection of the life she is living or what she is capable of.

Participating story in the 2022 Stormy Nights Reading Challenge! Popstar Insomniac Werewolf? Verity Jayne is harboring a secret buried so deep, even she doesn't know what it is. Until one day, she does. Or she thinks she does. Her family and friends worry that she's losing her mind. Either they're right... or they're lying to her. Alek Sinclair knows her secret, but he isn't telling her what it might be. Hired as her bodyguard, Alek's real mission is to watch Verity for signs that she's taking after her mother. Verity believes her mom succumbed to mental illness. The truth is far stranger-so strange that even Alek will be forced to reevaluate everything he thought he believed in. Verity wants to embrace who she's become, but if she does, Alek will have to finish his mission: ending her life before the world finds out what she really is... or what she's capable of doing.

Lightning without Thunder by Elmusfire

ONC entry for 2024. Prompt 49: Being a superhero is just too boring. Let's be a villain! 15-years-old Marissa Everstar makes a Faustian bargain to receive superpowers, in the hope they will make her famous. But when being a superhero turns out to mainly involve boring work that does not get her the immediate popularity she craves, she shifts gears and becomes a villain. Trigger warning: contains descriptions of physical and emotional abuse, blood and gore. Excerpt from chapter 2: I carefully begin pouring the white powder onto the floor, drawing a large pentagram. I spend a lot of time on the intricate details, making sure everything is perfect. The summoning circle quite small, but it will have to do. I clap my hands twice and hear a soul-crushing scream that appears to pierce my body to its core. Hearing the sound fills my stomach with butterflies and gives me a fuzzy feeling. I haven't heard a single sound in almost a year. Following the scream, a shadowy figure emerges. He appears deep black, littered with stars, as if a human-like shape has been carved out of the universe, but also strangely transparent, as if made of glass. His long arms end in clawed fingers, and his ears and horns are goat-like in appearance. On his back are two bat-like wings. He speaks in a deep voice-the only one I've heard in a long time. "Mortal, why have you awoken me from my slumber?"

The More You Gain, The Less You Have {Ejen Ali Fanfic} by amyrose246

Sequel to "The More You Hate, The More You Love" A year has passed, the events of Mission: Neo has passed, and Viktor ceased to exist. As punishment for causing M.A.T.A.'s existence to be compromised to the public, Ali chose to comply and surrendered I.R.I.S. over to Agent Dayang and Agent Ganz. He wanted to prove that I.R.I.S. wasn't the one that made him great, he wanted to prove that he can be a super agent even with the absence of his well-mastered gadget. His trusty yo-yo was no longer repaired when it was smashed by Niki, yet he chose to use his mother's old weaponry, a spintop / trompo which he soon mastered in usage. Using this new weapon of his made him less saddened about his mother's passing, but he was proud to let Pinggiran be developed in the name of his late mother. Ali continued on his days in attending training while trying to woo Alicia, but the female wasn't used to nor she was knowledgeable about this whole 'dating' scenario. So, they assumed back to their normal agendas, Alicia, not even minding how hard Ali was trying to woo her in various ways. But she never appreciated his hard work. An accident following the heartbreaking remorse which Alicia lashed out over Ali, caused Ali to once again, sacrifice for the female. What will happen when the boy who used to woo and make her so happy, suddenly turned away from her? Sometimes, we will only realize that something's missing until they are gone, it is then when they realize that something, is not complete. Will Alicia take the strive in order to repay all the hardships Ali did just to make her happy? Will she try in her own efforts to prevent this one-sided love...? Disclaimer!!

The Return of the Gods (Children of the Sun Book 1) by dragonthusiast

[2023 Wattys Shortlist, 2023 Amby Awards winner, Featured 4 times in Wattpad Picks lists] Kaleth has worked as an agent of Luxarx for years. What the average person might see as an exciting, dangerous job has become the routine, and the only thing that fazes Kaleth now is that his habit of wearing suits everywhere is somehow still a thing his teammates tease him over. But that's all about to change. An encounter with one unexpectedly peaceful (and cute) terrorist soldier brings everything he thought he knew into question. If not all Umbra are dangerous criminals, what else does Luxarx get wrong? As he investigates, Kaleth stumbles onto a conspiracy that doesn't just concern the agency, but also his government, and the whole world. There are monsters hiding in plain sight, secretly in charge of everything since the very beginning - the long-forgotten dragon-gods with supernatural abilities. And they are definitely not as mythological as everyone thought. Now branded traitors, can Kaleth and his team fight back against the government they once served, and stop a world war before it can start? --------------------------- [word count: ≈ 90 000 words] • Book 1 - The Return of the Gods • Book 2 - The Return to Irithara • Book 3 - The Return of the Lifebringer • Book 4 - The Aperios [Featured in Wattpad Picks lists: 'Extraordinary Realms ✨' in December 2023, 'Reading Radar' in January 2024, 'Celebrating Wattpad Hits' in February 2024, and Valiant Heroes 🏰✨🏔 in June 2024, and also on the @fantasy profile]

Kissing the Devil Goodbye by Bellisima1009

Do paranormal things, witches and magic exist? There are gifts that are waiting to be discovered. The mythical power is just waiting beyond the deepest darkest tunnel of the unknown. Only the brave learns to test the waters amidst the labyrinth of its knotted mystery. PLEASE, NO PLAGIARISM. (~Created July 6, 2018:Finished August 5, 2018~) Being engrossed in studying his current case detained him from leaving at once until he forgot the time. He never mentioned to Hera that he's going home after two decades. Only his youngest child knows of his trip back home. Whether he believes in curse or not. It's his 45th birthday tomorrow and he must be home to keep his promise to his mother. His family had never forsaken him, he did. He'd been ignoring their summons since he turned his back from them. Perhaps it's time to grant their plea. He closes his office and walks to the elevator. "Good evening, Artemis." The man in a black jacket greets him. Artemis smiles at the stranger. "Do I know you?" The stranger puts his arm around the stunned lawyer. Behind the unknown man's dark glasses are bloodshot eyes ready to scare the wits out of his prey. "Your mother does. She's expecting me to greet you happy birthday." Removing his dark glasses, he stares at his victim to corrupt his eyes. Insurmountable fear assaults Artemis as excruciating pain drills on his eyeballs. A horrible scream slits through the silence of the night when the clock strikes twelve. As the elevator opens, the stranger loosens his grip and the victim falls on the floor. Covering his bleeding eyes, Artemis winces from severe pain. The man whistles away as he walks past the dead body of the security guard in the lobby to the snowy road outside the building. His victim crawls out of the closing elevator. The curse is true. He must get into his car before his sight totally leaves him. He must warn his family. " I must save Athena!"

Phoenix by bossbitch3000

My entire body felt on fire under his intense gaze. I tried my best to avoid eye contact as he towered over me, but once my eyes met his, the usual amber color of his orbs went darker and darker until they were now of a fervent brown shade and his pupils dilated drastically. The sight shocked me, causing goosebumps to rise all across my arms as electricity shot up my spine and my stomach erupted not in butterflies, but rather, I'd say in pterodactyls. It was both a terrifying and mesmeric sight... ___________________________________________ After being dared to kiss the first person to enter the dark room, 19 year old Essence later finds out that the person she kissed, 21 year old Phoenix, is her hand to hand combat trainer in her new assassin's school. Will the chemistry between them lead to a successful love formula? Or will it all combust? ___________________________________________ #9collegeromance (12/14/2019) #1assassinschool (6/6/2020) #1teammates (26/2/2021) #1spying (9/14/2020) #2russia (9/22/2020) #1boxing (18/3/2021) #4illegal (30/8/2021) #1assassin (11/9/2021)

Blood and Shadows by Astr3a03

Sirena has no memory of her past as she awakens on the nautiloid. She doesn't just feel the tadpole behind her eye, working its way into her brain. She also feels something deeper...darker. The worm is being overshadowed by the constant desire- no NEED to kill...kill...KILL. Her only mission is to get revenge on those who have left her with only a name and this need to destroy. Everything else, her experiences, battles, and relationships will slowly reveal her past; whether it is useful or disturbing is another problem. However, her past is known to a select few. She will go on to find out she does indeed have a reason for the twitch she feels when a knife is in her hand. A reason why her body sings along with every strike of a blade against anything that moves. She is the daughter of Bhaal himself, the lord of murder. He sired not only her sweet name but the incessant desire for murder. She was trained in the arts of delightful music aswell as blades. Why? Because Bhaal's chosen must be so despicable that they can use honeyed words to convince their prey to commit their own murder, command a room of people to drop with the most angelic of Melodies. Her power resides in words because it was his desire, but her skills were moulded into something far more deadly. How she became lost with this urge is the main question pounding against her skull, but whoever did this didn't think of one thing. Sirena may have forgotten...but she will never forgive. Will she decide to resist this urge and get her revenge? Especially when it comes to those she will grow to love? Well...let's hope the dice roll in her favour. (This is a series I've created in honour of my durge run that I just had to write about. All inspired by conversations, events or areas through the course of the game. This is meant for mature audiences, due to the amount of violence, language, character backgrounds, etc. There are sexual scenes but don't expect many as I'm VERY new to writing. Thank you and enjoy!)

Where Dark Things Wait: Night Creatures Book One by ALMcGurk

Kalyna's family died, murdered by vampires. For five years, she hunted down those responsible for killing her husband and children, and the end was finally in sight. As she watched the last nest burn to the ground, she almost believed that the fight was over; that she could finally fade away. She made no attempt to flee the scene, accepting that and jury would convict of arson with intent to endanger life. Let them leave her to rot in a prison, she had nothing left to tie her to the world anyway, not now her vengeance had been served. Despite her plan for surrender, others had schemes of their own; schemes that didn't involve jail cells and court rooms. Not for Kalyna, at least. When dispatch ordered her arresting officers to hand her over to a unit from Special Branch, she began to think something might be amiss, but she wasn't prepared for the undercover agent in a Police Sergeant's uniform. The vampire - with his amber and honey eyes that flashed silver in the darkness, and his razor sharp fangs - terrified her. She had no doubt that he would punish her for hunting his kind, and her first instinct was to flee. Yet she wasn't prepared for him, or the organisation he worked for, or what he had to say about her own origins. Just what was the Occult Task Force? What heritage made Kalyna so interesting to supernaturals of all varieties? And could she really sign on to fight in a bigger battle, one that stretched far beyond a few rogue vampires? Could she learn to fight side by side with the very creatures she had spent five years hunting? More importantly, what dark things waited in the shadows where others feared to tread? Kalyna was about to find out, and she had no idea if she was up to the challenge, or if Staff Sergeant Dunstan Eorl would be the death of her first.
