Gaslight Trials | The Wattys2023 Shortlister ✔️ oleh EvelynHail

| 𝟳𝘅 𝗙𝗘𝗔𝗧𝗨𝗥𝗘𝗗 ·|| HUNGER GAMES x CINDER || ONC 2023 Honorable Mention Amidst the escalating unrest between the windborne utopian city of Lighthaven and its seedy, oppressed underbelly Fumedge, the Grand Duke of Lighthaven, Lucius Sextus, comes up with an ingenious solution. To provide much-wanted respite from the brewing conflict, and achieve the apparent-if-temporary unity, he organizes Gaslight Trials - a highly entertaining panem-et-circenses combat event in the Pits. The combatants may use all steam and thaumaturgy powered augmentations at their disposal, and there is only one rule: defeat, or be defeated. The reward for the last one standing? A chance to start their life anew. A brass key to the city of Lighthaven with a luxurious mansion to call their own within, as well as an aeroship to command. When eighteen-year-old Veda Igglesden steps forward to take her timeworn adoptive father's place in the fight, she might as well be signing her death-sentence. With her eyes fully set on the prize, act-first-think-later Veda must harness the power of technology to try and win for her Papa Otto. Decades of breathing in the toxic air of Fumedge did a number on the old inventor's lungs, and being able to live in the air-filtered Lighthaven would sure come in handy right about now. A high-flying adventure full of gadgetry and intrigue; a pleasing blend of steampunk and postapocalyptic. See Veda unravel the mysterious ploy behind the game's organization, and uncover the truth about her secret origins. Can she cope both with the trials of physical and intellectual prowess, as well as with the trials of life itself: those of love, loss and regret? © 2023 EvelynHail Exclusively on Wattpad Based on prompt 49! Which is (I shan't leave ye hanging :P): "Master the rules of the game until you can play it better than they can." Michael Scott, "The Sorceress" Get ready for steampunkish tinkering,

Ever since she was a little toddler, life has never been easy. She can't remember the last time she hadn't run away from being fostered. She never had a stable home or a stable family.

She was always known as the 'Silent Girl' the one who no one goes near unless they wanted to go missing. People at her school believe she's a part of the most dangerous gangs The Vipers.

I ran downstairs into the living room, my heart pounding as I found all my brothers gathered around Nefeli. Her eyes were frantic, scanning the room, desperately searching for me. The scream that bastard had let out earlier must have reached her... The moment our eyes met, she practically threw herself at me, wrapping her arms around me so tightly I could barely breathe. I stood frozen for a moment, unsure of what to do. I hugged her back anyway... Even though I had no idea what was going on. "Thank God you're safe" she murmured in my ear, her voice trembling, leaving me even more confused. I glanced at my brothers. They all looked just as lost as I was. Except for Aiden and Alex. They were motioning for me to hold on. "Of course I'm okay, Nefeli. What happened?" I asked, my heart tightening. I hated seeing her like this, so worried and panicked. "I-I heard Alex and Aiden talking in Italian!" she stammered, her eyes wide with panic. "They said something about the Mafia! Are we being threatened by the Mafia?" Her voice cracked, and tears threatened to spill from her brown eyes. The room fell silent for a moment. My brothers exchanged looks, and then, without warning, we all burst into laughter. Nefeli stared at us, completely confused. Cole, finally calming down, wiped his eyes and looked at her with a smile. "Love" he said, his voice smooth, "we're not being threatened by the Mafia." he let the words settle in the air for a second. "We are the Mafia." • • • _______________________________________________________ ⚠️ DISCLAIMER ⚠️ Mentions of abuse, violence, harsh language, bad mental health, and light depression!

Ashes of Vile oleh spiderprongs

Ashgrim's most hunted assassin desires to overthrow the Valkyrie and her new world. She was well reconciled with the fact that she'd have to bring terror and do whatever it would take. But on the way, she meets a group of cruel and uncontrolled youth with the same goal; and a particular girl that mutually despised her. Villains and their calculating minds, their strong desire for power, and the lack of empathy. It is all whole, having no room to make mistakes. However, there is the gravest one they always fail to avoid: conquering a world full of alike. On the way, they meet unexpected obstacles surrounding twists, romance, combat, temptation, and the unknown.

The Twins Betrayal oleh SumDumbassKid

I walked out of my room and closed the door. I started to go downstairs where I could hear my siblings talking. I was almost to the stairs when I heard a door open and close. I turned around to see Makayla right behind me. "Hi, Little Brother." She said viciously ~~~ "You didn't do that stuff to Makayla, did you?" He quietly asked. "No, I didn't." I shook my head and paused. "She did it to herself." He was quiet for a moment. "Why would she blame you for all that stuff?" I lightly shrugged. "They'll believe her, though." I said quietly "Everyone always believes her and now that you're here it's going to get a lot worse." ~~~ Twins that were given up for adoption together. For a reason they do not know yet. The girl was seen as young, Beautiful, and innocent. They couldn't see her for who she really was. But he could and he was none other than her twin brother of course. He was the one that always suffered because of her. He loved her, she was his sister his only family. But she hated him and wanted them to hate him too. They used to think that he was the same as her until she made them think differently. Then their biological family showed up. He thought that they would love him, no matter what she did. But, maybe he was wrong. *I do not own any images or videos in this all images from Pinterest and videos from YouTube* Enjoy Started: 1/3/2021 Finished: 1/17/23 #1 in Older Sister on 03/08/21 #1 in Evil Twin on 03/08/21 #1 in Little Brother on 5/24/21 #2 in Sister on 11/29/21 #5 in Reunited on 2/28/22 #2 in Mafia Prince 11/29/21 #92 in LGBT on 9/12/21

The twins are in for a crazy ride, but they're in it together. Always. Pinky promise. Will it be enough? TW: abuse, SA, r*pe, and mature language/scenes.

When Shadows Rise (Book 1) oleh HaleySulich

A magic-addicted spy trapped in the queen's service must track a princess-turned-assassin in order to earn her freedom, but things get complicated when she falls for the princess she's supposed to capture. ***** Weak. Cursed. That's how seventeen-year-old Kayden Branimir, the realm's deadliest assassin, views herself. Some believe she could save the world with her rare healing magic, but she gave up on her powers long ago after failing to save her best friend. Her life changes when she receives a letter from her supposedly dead twin brother, Alaric, begging to be rescued from rival territory Leodia. For the first time since her friend's accident, Kayden is determined to be the hero, but she must learn to embrace her magic--and herself--along the way. Strange. Unnatural. Those are the words whispered about eighteen-year-old Zara Tait, a Leodian spy addicted to soul-stealing magic. Forced into the queen's service, Zara wants to escape and return home, but she has nothing to offer the queen in exchange for her freedom. When Kayden arrives in Leodia, Zara sees the quiet girl with unique magic as the bargaining chip she needs. But the more she learns of Kayden, the more her feelings grow. Now, Zara must choose between her freedom and the dangerous assassin she hadn't meant to fall for.
