"She created a weapon. A weapon of mass destruction." 

"What was it?" I ask.

"You."

Gwen is a girl of many talents, most of which being either in the bedroom, or the bathroom. 

What happens when she's poisoned, and unknown forces use her as a catalyst for the nuclear (and zombie) apocalypse? Will she be able to survive and lead her group to victory, or will condemned feelings get in the way? 

As Doomsday rears it's ugly head, it's up to Gwen and her dysfunctional band of misfits to uncover the secrets of what really happened that fateful day-and to discover themselves in the process.

Red Rover | gxg | Wattys 2023 Winner | ✔ by SmokeAndOranges

[Complete. Wattys 2023 Winner] The Redding takes you if it knows your name. That's the rule that's kept Meg alive --- or awake, rather --- since the night the world went to hell. Nobody knows where the red stuff came from, but it acts like water, it's in the water, and it falls as rain every night. The people it captures drop like puppets with their strings cut. They're asleep, not dead, and you can wake them if you say their name again. But then they just try to kill you. Meg and the other survivors she's befriended think they've found a stable equilibrium, six weeks after the catastrophe began. Nicknames become real names, and Meg knows she's getting better at identifying safe houses. Her crush discovers that Morse code, like writing, is a safe way to say a Sleeper's name. It's the night after learning it that Meg wakes up just as the nightly rain is starting. Raindrops, as it turns out, can make dots and dashes, too. The Redding can talk. And it's telling her to run. ❖❖❖ Complete. Wattys 2023 Winner.

18 Going On 30 || h.s. au by hotgirlharry

They've known each other since they were eleven, inseparable best friends for as long as they can remember, but long distance and spotty behavior causes them to lose touch after graduation. When Maddie and Harry run into each other again ten years later, what happens when feelings that were pushed away begin to resurface? EXCERPT: "How about this..." He suddenly gets an idea, a bold one, but he can't help but share it. "If neither of us are married by thirty, let's get married." Obviously, she'll be married by thirty. She's perfect, and any man who's as dense as a rock could see it. Surely, someone will sweep her off her feet and put a ring on her finger in the next twelve years, it's inevitable with the type of person she is. Deep down he wants it to be him, but he wouldn't dare make a move that could ruin the strongest friendship he's had his entire life. Maddie finds herself smiling at Harry's idea, she loves it. It won't happen though, because some girl in the future is bound to fall in love with Harry and his kind heart, and he'll be head over heels for her too. It's inevitable that someone will fall in love with his dimpled smile and caring soul, and even though Maddie already has, she wouldn't dare make a move that could ruin the strongest friendship she's had her entire life. The age of thirty is twelve years away for them, it's too obvious that nothing will come from this harmless bet. "Deal." "Really?" Harry raises his eyebrows, amused at her response. "Really." They shake hands just as the song comes to an end and another one begins. But Harry doesn't let go of Lainey's hand, instead he catches her off guard by spinning her under his arm and dipping her. "You better not fall in love then." STARTED MARCH 2021 COMPLETED OCTOBER 2021 *NOT TO BE ASSOCIATED WITH THE REAL HARRY STYLES OR HIS CAREER*

[New Adult Apocalyptic Romance] Summary: Most of the population is dead, some have turned into vicious, crazed creatures who want nothing more than to eat you, and a small percentage are left to try to survive. Nothing is the way it was. With not much more than a pistol and a vague idea of what she's doing, Claire Harrington ventures out into this new, unforgiving world with only one real goal: to keep her younger sister safe. The odds are against her, until she runs into Parker and finds herself reluctantly accepting his offer to help. Trust is a fragile thing. Humanity is a construct. Love is a weakness. But these are the thoughts of a survivor, and she's beginning to wonder if surviving is all she wants. Maybe she wants to live.

THE DRY CLEANER'S MESS by officialzodi

While working her shift in a laundry house, Arielle LaRue comes in contact with a mutilated hand with a lot of jeweleries on it. Unbeknownst to her, the hand belongs to a member of a dangerous cult. The strange discovery drags her into a world of fear, treachery, blood and of course, love. Lucas Martin is the young Lord of a dangerous cult. Hearing that a lady, who worked at the laundry house he used, disappeared with the hand of a member of his cult makes him angry and a little intrigued. A brief contact with her shows him the smart and fierce woman beneath the beautiful face. Will they succeed together or will the forces in the dark keep them apart? A thriller of betrayal, trust, survival and love. ******************************************************************************************* "Why did you fucking run away?" She paused for a second. "Because I saw a bloodied hand in the bag you brought." He shook his head. "That's not reason enough to run away. If I left my wallet at your workplace, you should keep it and return it when I come back. That's what normal people do." She looked at him with a dry expression. "I'm very sure normal people will never compare a mutilated hand with a flimsy purse. They are barely in the same category." ********************************************************************************************** "That's not all. You'll have to complete a task for us." She eyed the man warily. "What task?" "It's been concluded that there is a traitor in our midst. Your task will be to fish out this individual or individuals, as the case may be." **************************************************************************************************

Call Me Up Again by sfenby

A Taylor Swift fanfic - Máire never expected a wrong number to change her life forever. At first, she didn't think much of it, but when the unknown caller keeps blowing up her phone and she ends up talking to the charming and mysterious woman that wants to keep her identity a secret, she finds herself drawn to that girl more with each text and late-night call. Neither of them knew that sometimes the most unexpected connections can lead to the most profound relationships. As they continue to grow closer, navigating the challenges of time zones, long-distance communication and their vastly different lives, both of them soon must decide if they're willing to take a leap of faith and uproot everything they've known so far. Disclaimer: This is a work of fiction! Most characters and places were created in my head, except for real life people, like celebrities and especially Taylor herself. Their actions and words are completely imaginary. I wrote everything with the utmost respect for Taylor and anyone who makes an appearance and it's intended to entertain and nothing more. We don't assume peoples sexualities here, we just vibe. Timeline won't be a hundred percent accurate to make this story make sense, but major events are still a thing.

Dawn of Kleftis by Skaursgaurd

WARNING: THIS STORY CONTAINS SCENES THAT SOME MAY FIND TRIGGERING. UPDATE: SUNDAY HEADS UP: I associate music a lot with writing. One I can do, the other I can't lol. Like all my stories, each chapter will have a song or songs attached, I recommend you listen to each to grasp the full gravity of the story. Comments will be left for when you should change song. Alex spends most of his days alone and that's the way he likes it. The world isn't like it used to be, and going alone is the easier option. Monsters invaded, bringing with them death and plague. They left their scars on humanity, on him. What will he do when he's forced to face his demons, and the end of his quiet life? Will he be able to retain his humanity? "We don't know who's doing this to us, what root it's growing from, or why. They came with blood, ash, and war. Humanity retreated away to its bastion as the darkness clouded around us, and then they came. Our beacons of light." Art by ORYANIMA Twitter.com/Oryanima Instagram.com/Oryanima

The Will To by woodlander8

Will is a slut. At least, according to everyone else she is. With a past that both defines her and won't let her go, Will has had enough of the name-calling and assumptions. She's decided to use it all as fuel to get what she wants: to take down Reid Reynolds. Reid is a "bad boy" (a term that makes Will's eyes cross into oblivion) and he represents everything that Will despises. He is a TA in one of her university classes, making her plan even easier. She has an entire year to follow through with her agenda. No problem. It's all under control. Except it isn't. When women start getting assaulted on campus, everything Will is running from begins to catch up with her. She will inevitably have to face it--and decide if getting revenge on the bad boy will actually get her what she wants. NaNoWriMo2021 Warnings: sexual assault, mentions of rape, and stalking.

Approaching Her - Billie Eilish by purewing

- "Oh, just shut up and smash your lips into mines, kinda like the bruised feeling you're leaving on them." She says placing her thumb on my lower lip, while touching my upper lip with her green, long nail. - "Aren't they already full of unconventional states of mind?" I ask tilting my head one sided, softly caressing her arm with my fingers, just one followed by the other one. Teasing the Hell out of her is my passion mixed up with the ungodly pleasure she uses to give me. Such an addictive type of love. Christine, a bartender moving out to Highland-park, learns about Billies existence. They get off on the wrong foot from the first beginning not for more but Billie's tendency of expressing her rough emotions through loud music at 3 am, causing Chris headaches. They learn how easygoing life can be after they taste each other's dreams, state of minds, experiences and bodies. It turns out Billie is hiding something from Christine.

Miss, Do I Know You? by badgalres

A stranger to her own existence, Kayla moves to a small town with the hope of finding comfort in fresh starts. But as she steps inside the unfamiliar classroom on the first day, standing in front of the class is a mysteriously familiar face, one that rouses memories of a time before everything had gone awry. With past baggage catching up in the most intrusive ways, she stumbles upon unexpected pleasures that breathe life into her soul -- comfort of new friendships, rekindling of old ones frayed by time and circumstance, unconditional love of found family, and the blossoming of a beautiful yet complicated bond between two hesitant souls. And when fate starts asking for more, people are forced to dig deep within. ────── "This book was like a warm hug, and I might believe in love again." "I would give everything, especially my soul, to have the opportunity to read this book for the first time again." "You perfectly portraying every emotion, even causing everything to come to life in my thoughts so vividly on a level I assumed was impossible, actually blows my mind." "This book has ruined Wattpad forever for me because everything else seems too plain now, too shallow." ────── CW: Drug abuse, harsh language, sexual content, mention of self-harm, mention of suicide. ────── Started in January 2018. Re-published in November 2022. First draft finished in April 2023.
