What if having superpowers was not a gift but a curse? Would you still choose to use it?

Aleksandra Leszczyńska works as an agent for a secret government organisation training people with superpowers - the Gifted - to work as a police support force. Working as a public servant to keep peace and order was always her dream, but she struggles as her gift is not as valuable for the field. Still, she refuses to be turned into back-office support. The situation changes when she rescues a cute Gifted from kidnapping and stumbles upon a deviant who dies in excruciating pain, consumed by his own power. 

After confirming that it's a fate awaiting most of the Gifted, every agent must question if they still want to remain in the organisation and keep using their powers. 

However, as deviants scheme to kidnap more innocent people and use them for their repulsive experiments, only the Gifted can stop them.All Rights Reserved

Spectacular World by RainyLiquid2020

Hope Lauren has read her share of comics. She's seen supers around her city and even been saved by some on occasion. And she always hoped that she'd be able to join them. With Jack, her grizzled older mentor with secrets that could shake the world, and Pantheon, a new team of heroes, Hope will have to fight against monumental odds to save Oleander City. In a world of action, comedy, tragedy, and adventure, there's plenty for a new hero to do. *Readers can expect a mostly adventure-themed superhero journey that will include a slice of life, action, and hopefully exciting world-building. It will also contain a slow-burn GL/Yuri plotline, which I'll eventually get to when I feel like it, I guess. This will be a very long story with many arcs* New chapter every Monday, Wednesday and Friday.

The Academy's Twisted Enemies | Dark Romance by Leeleeace1

Azira's whole world consisted of being a hero. The daughter of the Dynamic Duo, she was destined to fulfill her role as the dutiful daughter in the Heroes Academy. A world where those with superhuman powers are taught to wield their powers for good and change the world. That is until a villain named Scar enters her life and changes her whole perspective on what it truly means to be the good guy. Scar loves her. And knows she loves him-she just doesn't know that yet herself. But she's about to find out. ~Excerpt~ "Why me?" I asked exasperatedly. "You do all of this for me, and why? For what reason?" "That's where you're still wrong, honey," he said darkly. "I'm not doing this for you. I'm doing this for me. I wanted you, so now you're mine-that's all there is to it. And by being mine, if someone hurts you, they're hurting me. And I am not one to take that disrespect lightly. Do you understand me?" "No." "You will." He knelt next to me, his face hovering over mine, his arms on either side of the machine, caging me beneath his upper body. "I will ruin you-I'll fit you to my mold; I'll take that goody-two-shoes girl you are, and turn her into a force to be reckoned with. One that's mine." I quivered. "All mine." "I..." His proximity had me beyond nervous. My throat constricted as I tried to regain my composure. "Will never be yours." He laughed, his hand caressing my cheek. "You and I both know you already are." *Enemies to lovers (mildly) dark romance* PUBLISHING ALSO ON ROYAL ROAD AS LEELEEACE1

Particles of Mist by Laurence-Wolf

In a world of superpowers superheroes are desperately needed ... But people aren't like that, there are more villains than heroes and even more content to do nothing. Alice West is no exception. But when people around her start vanishing and a few weeks later ORB -- a company that makes powered tech -- creates something that mimics the people's powers, she starts to investigate. And discovers there's more to ORB than meets the eye. Kidnapping, murder, weapons dealing and more. All happening underneath the noses of the entire country while they profit from it by selling their tech to the highest bidder. Including law enforcement. Determined to do something about it before she's next on their list, she resolves to fight against them, expose their crimes and stop their poisonous influence from spreading around the world. However, she can't do it alone, she'll need help and she seeks it out in the very people ORB is trying to subjugate. Deciding to gather some of the most powerful people in the world together to fight against the people who would oppress them. The only problem? Getting them to agree to it.

Darkened Hearts by signedbyleah

It all started with a superhero, one who vowed to help save the world and use her powers for good....But how can one keep a promise if they don't remember making it? What happens when the lines to right and wrong blur? When promises have to be broken? When the one thing you thought you could never lose, your morality, comes into question. What happens when the only person in the world that understands you is the person you believed was evil. But a reputation can be fabricated, evidence can be tampered and memories can be manipulated. How does one decide who's good and who's bad? Who's the hero and who's a villain? Maybe the only real difference between the two is a change in perspective or perhaps keeping an open mind. Sometimes even a "Villain" has a good side and even a "Hero" has a bad one...so what would happen if they were to see eye to eye?....Who would be there to pull them from the deep end?...or maybe the high tide is exactly where they want to be.

Lightning and Starlight by bonnieet

After a careless scientific accident with new elements, people with supernatural abilities began to surface. Society adjusted, and social norms changed. Heroes and villians surfaced, making the world more complicated. Fast-forward one hundred years. Neera Sanchez fights for her survival as a supervillain. She does what she can to survive, inadvertently making her a target for the heroes. Behind her mask, she struggles in personal battles, alone. When her abusive boyfriend and her own fight against depression overtake her, she's introduced to the world of superheroes. Vincent Ciobanu is a new hero at a local base. He introduces himself to the ex-villain and takes Neera's focus away from the pain and suffering she had been used. Neera grows as she gets used to her new life. Times change and things shift for the worse as Neera's ex, Koen James, comes back into her life stronger as a supervillain, threatening the peace of the world and the freedom Neera discovered. ⚡️⚡️⚡️ Neera's eyes closed and her chest rose as she breathed deeply, trying her hardest to focus her power on the heroes nearing her. She opened her eyes, watching intently as the heroes slowly crowded on the rooftop around her. The moon illuminated their serious masked faces and flashy suits, giving Neera the opportunity to figure out what powers they might possess. She kept her eyes halfway closed and studied them. Most of the suits were at least 75% black. One hero stuck out in her blue suit. It had no black on it. Neera was wary of the color of her suit. /How did I end up here?/ One of the heroes had surprised her with a lucky hit almost a minute ago. She had felt the impact and acted on it, diving to the ground. She had a better fighting chance against the six when they were caught off guard. And if one of them had the ability to purify water, it would all go down hill. ⚡️⚡️⚡️ Romance; mental-health awareness; superheroes; abuse

Burning Day by _ayah21

Subject 23 has lived and trained in the facility for all her life. It's all she's ever known. So every Subject developing their own special ability-a Gift-is normal. Avoiding the attention of the staff without Gifts, fearing them, hating them, is second-nature. It doesn't help that she herself is the only Ungifted Subject left at the facility. But what isn't normal is that weekly for the past six months, a Subject has been taken from the facility and killed. No one-not the doctors nor the soldiers-can find a clue as to the murderer. When Subject 23's closest friend is taken, she swears vengeance, consumed by rage. But what if she's no match? What if she's taken next? As secrets unfold and 23 is thrust into unimaginable places, she's forced to question all she's believed about Ungifteds-about herself. For the first time, 23 must decide on her own what future she wants, but could it possibly be with other Ungifteds?

We all need a Hero by Ibis_Cus

In this world, some people were said to be gifted, gifted magic, a power, or multiple at once in only one being. Those were strong beings who always kept their gifts to themselves as to not scare the masses and stay out of trouble. While most of them would rather live normal lives and use their powers to their very own advantage, it did happen some decided to use their powers for something bigger, whether it be for the greater good or vile intentions. In other words what you'd know as Villains or Heroes. In the capital city of l'manburg they were a very well-known group of super villains, they were known as the ACES. But to bring back harmony stood against them the Dream Team. Them and 404 apparently, a hero who played his part all by himself. No one knew anything of him, yet he knew everything about the Dream Team. How? No one knew. Maybe because they were all friends since high school, ah, or was it the fact he single handedly build all of their scientifically-prodigious-costumes, oh not to mention he was married to one. Those were probably the reasons yeah. ----------------- OR, in this fic dnf are married and both heroes but Dream doesn't know his hubby is also one. George is a genius and a scientist. Yeah both at once, ain't it hot? Karlnap are boyfriends and roomies. Skephalo are fiancés. Hannah, Sylvee, Cate and Puffy are ALL the villains. Oh, yeah and they all have super powers.

(#1) Roommates by Day, Enemies by Night by magnetichearts02

WARNING: CONTAINING AMOUNTS OF SASS PREVIOUSLY UNKNOWN TO MANKIND In the city of NYC--- Ok. Hold up. First of all, New York City. What, are ya gonna assume everyone here knows what NYC is? Anyway, this is about two people. I can almost hear you rolling your eyes. Another cliché teen fiction with a bad boy and a good girl? Nope. This is about superheroes. I can still hear you rolling your eyes. Superheroes. Like in comic books? Like people with super speed and mutant powers? Yes. But this isn't about the fight they have. More about the lives they lead without the masks. But just keep in mind, people who live in the world have all different skin colours. Do not assume my characters are of one unless I state them explicitly. and diversity is welcome here in my novel! Anyhow, back to the story. Ever wonder where supervillains go after their fight with the hero? What about the other side of the story? It's not like they sit in their lair cackling all day and planning how to kidnap reporters. What about the lives they lead? And instead of just focusing on that, what if the superhero and the supervillain knew each other? I mean, can they see behind the mask? No, so their identities are secret. So what if the hero and villain were best friends? What if they were roommates? What if they were falling for each other? And what happens when they find out? Now, I assume you know all of these questions will be answered in this book. But hold on. It's going to take a while. You're in for a bumpy ride. And if any of you got any of the references in this description, give yourself a pat on the back. That is a beautiful thing. And if you can name all the references in this book, you truly are a gift to mankind. Fangirl out.
