Rated PG-13 because some themes might be touchy subjects to some people. No smut. No gore. No profanity.
Lucy, the first born of the noble and notably rich Trevana family, had it all; fine clothes, wealth, and even her own bodyguard... at least until her title was stripped of her. Being dubbed unfit of the family name due to her irresponsible lifestyle, her father, Fereydoun Trevana, declared that she must depart from their home and forsake the family name until such a time as she proved herself worthy. Left with nothing but a small sum of money, which she squanders in less than a week, and her best friend and body guard Rodney Marcel, Lucy must now learn to put an end to her riotous, albeit innocent, living while Marcel desperately fights to keep her away from speakeasies in the Callistan prohibition. As Lucy makes her way, she meets different people, each one changing her slightly for the better or worse, who drag her into the affairs of their lives and eventually get her and Marcel mixed up in political, economical, and religious disaster which threatens the safety of the whole solar system.
Set in a futuristic version of our world in which the planets have been terreformed, For Want of a Name begins on Callisto in the city Galilea, but a sudden turn of events eventually brings them to the planet where life began and still thrives as the central power of the solar system, Earth.

Rags to Riches (True Damage Senna x Male Reader)
[Short Story] It starts with Ekko Lee and Y/N L/N, best friends since grade school, each who found their own out of the Zaun hood. One through rapping on the street corners, dropping his heater for a mixer, having his mixtape picked up by K/DA's very own Akali for a listen. Another, through the darkest pit of hell that has opened to swallow him whole, alongside demons, and paper flying from his duffle bag. A criminal, a felon with dirty fingers, a grubby clown, a freak, "a greedy jester who shows no remorse for his fellow human being on his self-proclaimed, 'fight against corruption'.", as his favorite news station loves to portray it. Nobody knew who Y/N really became, and those who did would never sell a brother out. Keep that truth locked up tight like Stillwater, Firelights for life. Ekko and Y/N had a falling out as one would expect. Something made them cross paths once again... or was it someone... Man, I don't know what it was... I ain't tellin' you anyway. DISCLAIMER: This will be my own modern adaptation of the LoL Runeterra world. Zaun is going to be the bad part of the city, whilst Piltover will be the richer, more prosperous side. I'm going to try and make it look like Los Angeles, California, but use different names. WARNING: This book is marked as mature for a reason. It has potential to contain foul language, swearing, slurs, sexual content, alcohol and drug references, violence, sexism, racism, potential colorism, potential featurism, potential texturism.

Orphaned young and raised in a foster home ruled by cruelty, she learned early that survival meant silence. Her only protection came from twin brothers, Xavier and Xander-boys as dangerous as they were devoted. The twins' reputations were built on violence and fearlessness, their loyalty to each other unbreakable. When a brush with the law brought them face-to-face with Maddox, heir to one of Ireland's most feared crime families, their fate was sealed. Maddox saw potential in their defiance and took them under his wing, shaping them into the kind of men who lived-and killed-by his command. Years later, Teagan is twenty-two, still haunted by the ghosts of her childhood and the brothers who vanished without a word. Now, whispers of Maddox's empire stretch across Europe-and at his side stand his most trusted enforcers: Xavier and Xander. But the past doesn't stay buried. When Xander-mute since childhood and scarred by the same violence that bound them-returns to Teagan's doorstep, their silent bond stirs to life once more. What begins as comfort becomes something dangerous, forbidden... and impossible to undo.Concluida

I didn't exactly choose to be stolen at four years old. But the French underworld isn't big on consent. One minute I was Donatella Acardi, Mafia royalty. The next? Just another stolen kid bleeding in someone else's basement. That's where I met Amir. We bonded over near-death experiences and shared trauma. Real cute stuff. Then Demetri found us-trained us, broke us, built us back. We became something the underworld whispered about when they thought no one was listening. Angela Della Morte. Morte Nera. The Angel of Death and the Black Death. It has a ring to it, doesn't it? We're not kids anymore. We're not victims either. And we have one job: burn the French Mafia to the ground. Starting with the Don who ruined everything. But revenge doesn't follow a clean checklist. Especially not when I'm suddenly face-to-face with the family I swore I'd never see again... Yay. Now I'm stuck balancing the ghost of who I was with the assassin I've become... while navigating a castle full of lies, power plays, surveillance systems, olive oil, and one very inconvenient slow-burn romance. The mission? Still on. But if I'm not careful, I might survive the job and still lose what's left of me. And let's be honest-I worked way too hard to become this unkillable. ⋆˚𝜗𝜚˚⋆⋆˚𝜗𝜚˚⋆⋆˚𝜗𝜚˚⋆⋆˚𝜗𝜚˚⋆ ~Thank you so much for even taking a glance at this book.
