In the year 2499, only a small part of the world is inhabited after a great war. This inhabited part, Pretoria, is securely surrounded by a concrete wall to keep out the rubble and remnants from the war, and to seclude dangerous prisoners.
Joan, the daughter of such a 'dangerous' prisoner, one day escapes the prison. When she enters the big bad world behind the wall, she finds out the worlds is indeed as bad as she predicted. A world controlled by money and power, and served by androids that look awfully real.
Joshua Smith, a handsome and mysterious inhabitant of the capitalistic world, crosses paths with the escaped 18-year-old and takes her in. Despite being standoffish and cold-hearted, Joan makes Joshua's heart warm. Well, maybe. What she definitely does, is turn his eyes yellow.
The 21 is a harmonious mix of sci-fi, mystery, romance and fantasy. The story revolves around four very different characters, whose lives will blend, leading to surprising and shocking revelations about their Perfect World.
I hope you get absorbed in the story and will enjoy it!

"𝙃𝙞𝙨 𝙏𝙤𝙪𝙘𝙝, 𝙃𝙚𝙧 𝙍𝙪𝙞𝙣" (𝙅𝙆)
---------------------------------- Jungkook "JK" Jeon - A cold-hearted mafia boss with a past soaked in blood and secrets no one dares to uncover. They said the devil didn't exist. They were wrong. He wears black suits, silver rings, and the scent of blood. And he just made her his. Jeon Jungkook saw her. Marked her. Took her. Now she's trapped - not behind bars, but between the cruel touch of a man who kills without flinching and the terrifying truth she's been running from her whole life. Y/N never knew the face of the man who destroyed her life. The night her parents were brutally murdered, she was hidden away... but fate is cruel. Years later, she's unknowingly pulled into the orbit of Jeon Jungkook-the man behind the massacre. Cold. Vicious. Unapologetic. Jungkook doesn't recognize her at first, but when he does, he doesn't care. In fact, he plans to break her, ruin her, keep her. Because she's a loose end-and a temptation he can't resist. You hate him. He hates the weakness you awaken in him. He owns you-your pain, your pleasure, your soul. Their story is no fairy tale-it's blood, obsession, hate-fueled lust, and possession. He forces himself into her life, her mind, her body. He dominates, she defies. And in that chaos... something darker than love is born. He's not just her captor. He's her father's killer. And the only man she's ever wanted. "His Touch, Her Ruin" - where love bleeds, and monsters kiss like gods. Are you ready to die for a story? -------------------------------------- --- Themes to include: Obsession vs. love Power play and control Dark pasts unraveling Lust and intimacy as both comfort and control Betrayal from the closest person A final twist that leaves readers shook -------------------------------------- English is not my first language so you have to bear too much mistakes 🙂Abgeschlossene Geschichte

Facade Of Perfectionism
'Love is like a child, That longs for everything it can come by' -William Shakespeare _______________________________________________________ Maya Matthews is the description of perfection, or as she has been addressed. She excels in every field she steps her foot into, be it from her perfect grades to being the best daughter a parent could ask for, you name it. Her tenderness is what attracts every guy's attention. She seems to have everything she could ask for. What could possibly be wrong with her near to perfect life? Everything we see is a perspective, not the truth. Maya has her demons that she desperately attempts to hide from the world that not a single soul knows about. Shawn Daniels is the perfect storm and the missing puzzle in Maya's life. He is the polar opposite of Maya. Smart, confident, and witty. He's often misunderstood for a bad boy, who has quite a handful of girls swooning over him. He's a carefree soul. He is the yin to her yang. What happens when they cross paths and Shawn unleashes Maya's dark secrets? Will he succeed in his mission to pull Maya out of her past, and show what life has to offer? But life is certainly not a bed of roses and nothing comes as easy. _______________________________________________________ They say love can overcome anything. You never exactly know when it will strike and turn your life upside down. Love will make you doubt every single thing that you believe in yet you will find yourself drowning in it slowly, very slowly but deeply. _______________________________________________________ All rights reserved © 2020-Shrya1712Abgeschlossene Geschichte
