Freedom is not a word which exists there.
Freedom is what the people want.
Freedom is something most people will never get
In a city being led by a corrupt bloodline, boys and girls aged 15 to 18 years are forced into teams of three called Triptychs, which then have to undergo four months of harsh physical and mental challenges. If you don't please the bloodline, they kill you, simple as that. The minority of the Triptychs who actually complete the challenges get to leave the city and have freedom.
15 year old Cole is a loner, a reject and someone who people would make fun of. What happens when he is forced into a Triptych with people who are just like him?
Will they survive the four months and get what most people don't, or will they die trying? Will they defy the odds or will they succumb to the pressure? Will an unbreakable friendship be formed or will it end just as quickly as it started?
How much is freedom really worth?

The Metaphorical Key Book II- Forge the Path
(If you haven't read the first book, stop here! Don't spoil yourself, the first book is also on my profile) The death of a friend can break a person, or reshape them. It could be the straw that broke the camel's back, or a motivator, a push in the right direction. Aiden isn't sure where he falls. All he knows is the guilt and the desire for vengeance. Maybe things could've been different if he hadn't made such a disastrous mistake. But then an opportunity arises for Aiden to learn more about his fallen comrade, to get to know him even beyond the grave. And like death, everything that follows could make or break the rebellion. Note: This story contains a subplot featuring a romance between two boys. It's presented as normal. If you have a problem with the lgbt+ community, then this isn't the book - or authour - for you. I'm a member of the community myself. Happy pride month! Spread love, not hate. <3Complete![πΈππ ππ π π»ππ [βπ ππ‘πππ₯ππ]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/259479678-256-k366673.jpg)

Our Silent Vows
She was mine long before she knew it. I had been raised in shadows, in a world where power was survival and choice was an illusion. But then there was her. She slipped into my life unexpectedly and defiantly, her eyes too bright for a town like this one. She was unafraid of what lay beneath the surface, thinking she could walk away and resist the pull. But every step she took only bound her tighter to me. She was delicate but stubborn, fierce enough to face what others ran from, even if she didn't fully see it yet. She was the only thing I had ever chosen. I would break anything to keep her, everything, even her illusions of freedom. Because in a world that offered no choices, she became my one certainty. I will carve that truth into the world, with blood, if I have to. R.

Shurak, book 2
My crew and I take the jobs we need to survive in a world overrun by aliens. We fly a stolen ship that once trafficked women-us included. Now, we make our own rules and do whatever it takes to stay free. My latest job? Rehabilitate a Zohra-a towering alien locked away in prison, meant to be tamed into usefulness for his captors. Then I meet him-my job, a mute Zohra. And that's when everything goes sideways. Rescuing him wasn't in the plan, yet now we're on the run, supposedly relying on each other... except I'm the one doing all the work. He's frustrating. Completely useless. A liability, really. And yet, for some ridiculous reason, I just can't leave him behind.Complete
