Dead people are pulling strings. 

Archer Kingsley is playing chess, and although he may have the upper hand, his opponent hides behind a veil of familiarity that just can't be placed by seemingly anyone. And as much as Archer would like to think he's winning, he knows there's a third player- somebody who holds none of the pieces but knows how to flip the board.

Archer is determined to find the map to Myria's chest before it falls into the wrong hands, but he's not entirely sure what happens when he finds it. And above all, he's intent on figuring out who the mastermind behind this game is. 

There's chaos coming.

Venture to Uncertainty (#1) by tarishannon18

It's a deadly plan, and it goes like this: First, become a crew member of the Avourienne, a pirate ship notorious for its charismatic captain and wicked ways. Second, trick the ship's cunning strategist, famous for winning every game she's ever played, into believing a delicately spun lie. Third, get close enough to their tyrant king to put a knife through him. Deadly doesn't quite describe such a plan. In fact, inconceivable may be the better word. But Archer Kingsley has a knack for such things, and he feels he's going to pull off this plan with the ease he does most everything. Perhaps he's not quite aware of the absolute hell that's about to break loose, but truthfully, it's so much better that way. Because true adventures are born from uncertainty. * Cover by xxsoteria Mature themes you may encounter in this book: - harsh language (it's a pirate book) - violence (it's a pirate book) - sexual implications (it's a PIRATE book) However, this story does not violate any of Wattpad's mature guidelines and therefore is not marked as such.

The Hunter's Pursuit by LeeraIvy

For centuries, the oceans of the world have served as a refuge for the pirates who sailed upon them, but many other dangerous creatures lurk beneath the surface and are now making themselves known. A terrible beast from ancient legends has returned and is now a plague upon the seas. The Pirate Lords are tasked with hunting down the beast, but tensions amongst them are fraught, making things more difficult, especially for Caspian and Primalia Flynn. They know that in order to face both threats surrounding them, they'll need help from someone who knows how to handle the larger of the two. The question is, will he be willing to take up his lance once more? And can he help them destroy the beast, or will another creature of the deep stand in their way? Warning: This book, while being a work of fiction, still deals with real and mature elements. There will be chapters dealing with sexual content, abuse, depression, gore, PTSD, and other topics which some might find triggering.

The Reaper's Claim II Ateez Pirate AU by CarAtiny_21

Aurora was never meant to be part of their world. She was just a simple map collector, a tiny flower seller with bright green eyes and an innocence that didn't belong in the filth of the seas. She never questioned the treasures she gathered-never thought twice when she purchased an old, tattered map with strange markings, drawn to it only because of its beauty. She didn't know it was the map. The one everyone was willing to kill for. The one that led to Wonderland. When the infamous pirate crew led by Captain Hongjoong arrives on her island, disguised among the locals, she meets Park Seonghwa-the captain's right hand, a man spoken of in hushed whispers, known as the Reaper of the Seas. Cold, ruthless, and deadly, he was nothing like the sweet and charming man who later convinced her to sell the map. And she had no idea that both men were part of the same crew. But before she could process her mistake, before she could even grasp that she had been nothing more than a pawn in a game far beyond her understanding-she was hunted. Marked as the last known owner of the map, Aurora barely escapes an ambush by assassins, fleeing blindly into the night. Desperate, she hides aboard what she thinks is an abandoned ship. But when the ship sets sail, and she is dragged before a crew of cutthroat pirates- pirates who already know her name- Aurora realizes her mistake. She has just boarded the ship of the Pirate Kings themselves. And Seonghwa is looking at her like she is nothing more than an inconvenience- one that will be dealt with, one way or another. - A dark, immersive novel steeped in blood, terror, and the excruciating tension of a man who was never meant to feel... and the woman who should have never survived his world. - #1- Choi Jongho- 28-02-2025 #2- Ateez ff- 28-02-2025

The Summer Siren by mlgrove

Astrid was preparing for a strong storm one day and then the next she was in completely unknown waters and taken prisoner by an attractive stranger. Not knowing what kind of weird dream she was having she throws herself into the water only to find that she's not in a dream or a stimulation. She climbs onto her boat quickly before she notices another ship heading toward them. She can't get the pirates attention and before she knows it there is another stranger on her ship. Not knowing how to help herself, she continues to follow the pirates orders until she gets a better understanding of what's going on and how she's going to handle this situation. The only question she continues to ask herself is if she's going to live through this as two attractive strangers continue to ignore her as they fight over her and her boat. The Summer Siren will (hopefully) be updated every Thursday.
