My eyes have seen all the sorrows life has to give but when life gives you sour lemons, you make grapes...


Elaine Hall, a lowly maid within the esteemed walls of the duke's castle, weathers the storms of a harsh life, enduring a woeful childhood that seamlessly extends into a challenging adulthood. However, the tides of her destiny shift dramatically when betrayed by her fellow maids, cast adrift into the perilous expanse beyond the castle's protective embrace.

Refusing to languish in adversity, Elaine seizes the reins of her fate, aligning herself with the notorious band of thieves that casts a shadow over the kingdom of Foresham. Together, they embark on a audacious quest to wrest control from the ruling powers.

Yet, amidst the cloak-and-dagger world of thievery and rebellion, Elaine stumbles upon a revelation that transcends the mundane. She discovers whispers of an otherworldly lineage, hinting at a heritage beyond the ken of mere mortals. As the tapestry of her identity unfolds, Elaine grapples with newfound abilities and a destiny that seems interwoven with the historical fabric of the kingdom.

Born with glowing green eyes. Destined for rotten luck. Peasant girl Meya Hild was 'given' the opportunity to become a Lady. At swordpoint. By mercenaries. Engaged to a dying nobleman. Poisoned with one month to live. Tasked to loot a castle. In a kingdom running out of resources. Little did Meya know this shenanigan would lead her across land and over sea, from a mountain made of sapphire to an island shrouded in spiral clouds, with masquerades, heists, kidnappings, shipwrecks, alchemy, romance, and an unexpected 'bump' along the way.

Do your genes, your parents, teachers, or your master determine who you will be in life? Can they set your value in the universe? 650 years ago the known species of the universe came together and signed the Alliance, a document that would help each race find its place in the universe. It granted freedom to some and the scant protection of slavery to others. Into this society a handful of children are born who will change it forever, if they can survive to adulthood. Here is the origin story of two of those children. Hathu is born to a man determined to make the universe bow to him and his species. Since he learned to talk, Hathu has been a disappointment to his father. He doesn't want to become a warrior, and he refuses to assert his dominance. When he accidentally overhears his father plotting against the Ir'Klahn empire, can Hathu stop him? Mik is born with no rights, destined to become a lifelong slave. His mother tries to protect him from this fate by running away and finding a home for them on a trading ship that travels from world to world. They are safe for now, but how long can they hide from the best trackers in the universe? This is the first book in the My Kingdom Come series. Updates every Tuesday. :) My 2021 Nanowrimo so please excuse the unedited condition of the story. Be warned: there is violence, rape, murder, abuse, self harm and suicidal thoughts in this story. I do not post trigger warnings.

Five Star Reviews for Atlantis Academy: "Omg this book was amazing I couldn't put it down or stop reading. I carried it with me open on my phone while I did everything just to keep reading. I need more of all of this. Epic story, epic content, epic visuals, just epic. LOVE THIS!" "Once I got into this story, I did not stop reading it. This is a beautiful story about a very awkward girl who is riven with so much pain and angst and yet... this makes her who she is and shapes her into the person she will become. The world she finds herself awakened to is magical and yet filled with the all-too-familiar cliques and tribes of the very human people who inhabit it. One word to describe the story: beautiful!" "The story pulls you headlong to the end and leaves you wanting to shout "No! Not yet!" ...If there were 6 stars, I would have given it that." *** Humanity is one secret society away from extinction. The children of Atlantis use magic to keep us safe. If they make it through the Academy. Hi, I'm Lyric. And I'm kind of a mess. ADHD, that's me. I'm a high school drop-out, late everywhere I go, and one screw-up away from being homeless. I'm a loner, and I like it that way. Who needs friends when you have a Redwood forest nearby? Trees never bully me like the kids did at school. Or get drunk and throw things at my head. After my mom died, I figured life couldn't get much worse. I thought it might even get better. Ha. The universe has a great sense of humor. I should've listened to the rumors about evil spirits. About the angry, ancient magical creatures haunting our small Oregon Coast town. But did I? No. That was my first mistake. And it might be my last. 'Cause now I'm in a battle for my life. A whole new world has opened up... a magical world I don't understand. And the blood in my veins says I belong here. But I have to prove myself to save myself. And when have I ever done that?

"Am I going to break you, Case? Or are you bamboo?" The days are dry and hot, school is out, and all 17-year-old Case wants to do is party hard with his friends over the Fourth of July weekend. But when a drug deal goes wrong, his plans for an epic summer vacation are cut short. Case is taken captive, driven halfway across the country, and locked in a basement he can't escape. No one knows he is missing. No one knows where he is. No one is coming to save him. With his life on the line, Case is forced into an abusive relationship with his captor. But when his own thoughts begin to betray him, twisting hope with despair, and fear with love, can Case truly survive long enough to escape? Or will he eventually break? ---- DISCLAIMER ---- Please read content warning inside.

|| featured @newlywrittenbooks 29/12/2022. *** Michelle Thompson, the eighteen-year-old workaholic is bent on earning her boss's attention at all costs. Though not pushy or... flirty, she's soaked in solid sex dreams which gets worse with each passing day. Slowly and unnoticeably, she develops partial-obsessive tendencies; one that kept her dwindling in the thoughts of having sex with him-even as a virgin! Forgoing his harsh countenance, overly exaggerated reactions, she envisions Charles in the portrait of cold-nineteenth century men that spew flavors of love to their lovers-in the door. And Charles Jackson, built on grace and glamor, could win a medal in egocentrism, pride, rudeness, malevolence, prudishness and of course, beauty! Lurking in the shadows of her emotions and fated to be bewitched by perfect blue eyes that defied everything morality, she might discover that Charles Jackson, heir to Jackson Companies PLC and CED of Westland Airlines was truly born of STONE and FROST. And worse, everything that she believed might just be a lie! ••• Yo guys, quick message. This book is under a critical rewrite, like... at present as I want to complete this writing project before college resumption. I'll be leaving updates about rewritten chapters in the first page of the book, here on Wattapad. The message should come like this "chapter 7 is out, don't read beyond", and kindly oblige to avoid confusions and spoilers.
