Long ago the world broke. The lands rose from the seas and were cast beyond The White Horizon, never to be seen by the likes of the coloured- those who bend the light in their veins- again.
~*~*~*~*~
Kaimana Dayra is a mechanist living on the docks of the World Senate. She's content with her life creating breathing apparatuses for those affected by smog pollution, but her brother is not. Roule desires fortune, something he can only find over The White Horizon. When Kaimana's childhood mentor winds up dead, Roule is accused of murder and Kaimana of being his accomplice.
Now Roule is missing and Kaimana is on the run from the Senate and the Blac Dove, an assassin loyal to the highest bidder. It'll take more than her wits and abilities to bend solid colour for her to outmatch those who chase her. With the help of a bug obsessed child, a band of gypsies and their famed leader, and a map left to her by her idiotic brother, she will embark on the only quest she never wanted to take: crossing The White Horizon.

The Unseen Road
What if you discovered a world like no other, but knew no way back? And yet, the only way to stay- and survive- was by leaving your past self behind, body and mind? From a small town on the panhandle of Florida, Kylie and Celeste are two fraternal twins tired of being bullied; Beatrice is an embittered fourteen-year-old dissatisfied with her home life; and Mina is a young, yet astute girl determined to uncover a family mystery long forgotten... The four girls, whose paths would have never crossed, find themselves in the midst of a mysterious railroad tunnel. With an inkling for adventure, they enter, only to emerge in a world straight out of a fantasy novel, a country called Alysia. It isn't long, however, before they find themselves in the middle of a decades-long Civil War between the forces of Heaven- Arcadia- and Hell- Abaddonia... and realize that going home isn't going to be as simple as they believe. The road home would be more than just a yellow brick road traversed in ruby slippers; in order to survive, they will have to grow up- in more ways than just one. With no other choice, each finds herself wrapped up in the adventure of a lifetime as, together, they fight to stay true to themselves. For Kylie, Celeste, Beatrice, and Mina, it would indeed be a while before they could ever turn back. A/N: Thank you to everyone who checks out my story. I hope that you enjoy following these girls as they go through each of their own journeys. ~Cover design by me~Complete

Shatter The Line
In the stratified city of Veridia, divided into the privileged Aristocratic Zone and the oppressed Inferior Zone, the annual Trial of Passage offers a desperate few a chance at a better life - or so they believe. Sora Vance, driven by the disappearance of her brother during the last Trial, enters this brutal competition with a hidden agenda. But a malfunctioning VoxChip, the very technology used to control the city's inhabitants, begins to grant her unsettling whispers - fragmented data and alien thoughts that hint at a deeper, darker truth behind the Crown's carefully constructed reality. As Sora navigates treacherous trials of endurance, wit, and survival, she uncovers a hidden resistance fighting in the shadows and forms an unlikely alliance with a cynical Bourgeois contender and a conflicted Aristocrat. Together, they will unravel the Crown's insidious secrets; the true purpose of the Trial, the horrifying capabilities of the VoxChips, and the lies that maintain the rigid divide. Prepare for a gripping tale of rebellion, unlikely alliances, and the fight for truth in a world built on lies. This story explores themes of social injustice, the power of information, and the courage it takes to break free from systemic oppression. The whispers are just the beginning... will Sora and her allies shatter the Crown's control and ignite a revolution?Complete
Killing Softly ✞ (gxg)
Things are different. Humans are not at the top of the food chain, and life does not have the silver lining that Lily remembers it having when she was a kid. Civilization means living in fear and cowering away from the monsters that march the planet, hoping every night to see another day. But Lily is too fearless for her own good, and it just so happens to be during the night that she is plucked from her life like a flower from the earth. Little does she know that her capturer, whilst being the most bloodcurdling and lethal creature known to life, has a heartbeat regardless of being eternally undead. ✞ [a lesbian vampire love story] [tw: sex, violence, non-descriptive situations of rape]Complete
