action adventure bountyhunter guns ideals mercenary post-apocalyptic sciencefiction strong-female-character survival

Humanity found the Refinery. It was a massive mobile space station that had the power to terraform planets into livable worlds. Thus, the three planets, Primus, Oasis, and Arconite were forged and colonized around the Emerald Star, a solar system far from earth.

When colonists revolted against their governing power, Primus turned the Refinery against its purpose. It became a weapon, used to terrifying effect on Arconite. 

On Arconite, planet destroyed by the fires of war the only rule is survival. Erika Niels had no advantage, no help, only her wits and the aim of her weapon to last in this savage society. She takes the name of headhunter in the mercenary bounty hunter force that polices the desolate planet. She has a dream of one day buying her way to one of the verdant, wealthy planers, Oasis, or Primus.

Harolde's mother was responsible for the calamity that forged Arconite into what is is today. And she paid a terrible price for it. Harolde lives with her on Primus, in a dazzling city of bustle and lights on the surface, with a cesspool of corruption and overpopulation beneath. Harolde seeks to right his mothers wrong, rebuild the Refinery, and fix Arconite. But someone with motives for death, and revenge, has set his sights on the young genius.

Erika and Harolde find themselves thrown together in a fight for their lives, and their souls. Ideals once written in stone must be changed, and abandoned as the both are forced to reconsider what they will sacrifice to survive.

What Lasts in Us by monstrousbeauty

**COMPLETED** Several years after the world succumbed to a deadly strain of measles that turned those infected into crazed, mindless cannibals, Charlotte wanders the backroads alone, content with surviving day-to-day. That is until she crosses paths with Nate and his daughter, Emmi. Emmi is not and cannot be vaccinated against the disease, so the only way to protect her and give her some kind of life is to reunite her with her estranged mother in a quarantine zone on the other side of the country. Charlotte wants nothing to do with Nate or the girl who looks like her dead sister. She does not want to go through the grief of losing people again if something bad was to happen. And something bad does happen when Emmi is kidnapped, and it is no one's fault but Charlotte's. Through this obligation alone, Charlotte feels like it is her responsibility to get Emmi back, to right her wrong. In helping Nate pursue his kidnapped daughter, Charlotte inadvertently allows herself to feel again, to care for those other than herself. But with the clock ticking, Charlotte's new found family may just end up like her own, dead and destroyed, if Emmi is exposed to the disease that her father tried so hard to protect her from.

Temptation by jezxzica

He reaches into his collar with two fingers and tugs it away from his sweaty neck. I pry into his presence until I can't any longer. He understood every damn word I just said to him, so his terrified eyes are piercing into mine. "What on Earth are you doing Adira?" he struggles to ask me. The fight against this gift is similar to the fight against mind control, except you have to battle your own urge for relief as well. After all this time I've spent seducing him, he should know exactly what I am now. -------------------------- 2102 is quiet the leap in time. Intergalactic travel, aliens, and even powers are what the world becomes known for. There is still a normal, functioning society to account for though. One ruled by an unfair leader that most of the country detests. When Adira Stefano finally gets her long awaited gift, she fears being forced into hiding. However, when she discovers someone that has faith in her, she realizes that true change is her new daunting temptation.

Venom's Alliance: Loyalty's Fracture by LunarisAryson

To my readers, For those who believe that true love is like a really good book-impossible to put down and full of plot twists. Kalia's POV: I've never had a normal life. From birth, I've known nothing but pain and fear, used by everyone to get what they wanted. Just when I thought I was finally free from my past, it hit me harder than ever. I was forced into an undercover mission to dismantle an illegal weapons syndicate and got caught in Easton's relentless obsession. Now, I'm trapped in a marriage I never wanted, battling my past and the guilt of my mission. As if things weren't complicated enough, the only man I've ever truly wanted is Easton's best friend. Our love is impossible, and I had to push him away, choosing duty over my heart. Jay's POV: Taking over the underworld empire my uncle left behind wasn't my plan, but it was necessary to protect those I care about. I've worked hard to clear the name Venom and establish a new rule. But now, there's a problem. She's back. She's the one woman I've ever truly wanted, and I can't have her-she's married to my friend. Yet my feelings don't care about boundaries. I want to protect her, to keep her safe, but as our paths keep crossing, I'm drawn to her more each time. She's my light in the darkness, and I'll keep fighting to protect her from afar, even if it breaks my heart. Easton's POV: I never imagined I'd be this obsessed with someone again. Two years ago, I lost my love, Ariana, to a tragic accident. But when Kalia showed up looking so much like Ariana, I convinced myself she was Ariana, back for my happiness. My angel had come and consumed me. I can't resist her. She's part of my world, whether she likes it or not. She's mine, and now that she's back in my life, I have to have her, even if it means forcing her. This is my second chance, and there's no turning back.

Forever Fighting | ✔️ | [previously Espionage: double-cross] by WinterWillow901

Guns, revenge and buildings to bomb, what could go wrong? ✮ He came in, gun held out in front of him in one hand while the other was resting on his hip where a sharp dagger gleamed in the light. "Come on out little girl, why not make this easier for both of us. The agency you ran away from just want to have a little talk, that's all." She scoffed internally. Yeah right. Then the footsteps ceased. She peeked to the right, then to the left. Neither direction showed any sign of the intruder. She looked up in front of her and gasped, the glint of steel and smell of death as overwhelming as it was adrenaline inducing, exciting. "Boo." ✮ Murder, accidents, assassinations. Call it what you will, it's all the same, all has the same life breaking, mind shattering consequences - be it for the victim or the bystander. It had shaped Alex in a way no one should be. Broken down and rebuilt into the perfect soldier, one who had the power to change the world, to fight battles that would either make or break the carefully constructed vision we all live in. The only small, minute, really unimportant detail - it's pretty hard to get into a government classified site when you're 15 years old and have a rag-tag team of double-crossing back-stabbers behind you. Not to mention the threat of a world war and ghost hanging above your head. Armed with sarcasm, wit, and a hell of a lot of aggressive intentions, it won't be too long till a sticky situation is all that's ahead of you. Sometimes, running head-first into a situation isn't the best idea. Instead, you gotta play a game. A deadly game where either you have all the pieces on the board, or you have nothing. [previously known as Espionage: double-cross] Thanks for reading :)

Not as heavy as she thought it'd be. "It's a Glock 17, 9 mm gun. Very easy to use. Doesn't weigh much. You should be able to use it. It holds 17 rounds - " "Wait, you gave me a loaded gun?" Her eyes widened "Of course not. I don't want it going off or me getting shot by accident." He chuckled. "Here I'll show you how to use it."

the prize of his love by ToriaForbes

Huntingtown was panicking; no one knew where the sirens were coming from. There was no electricity, and there was no way for the storm Sirens to be sounding, yet they were. The entire Town was awake; everyone had a weapon. They had grabbed guns, knives, swords, and bats if they could be wielded and used for self-defense; Renee aimed her rifle at the trees, looking desperately for an explanation. Why would a siren sound? They only sounded when they were in Danger, so where was the Danger? When the predators revealed themselves, that was where the siren noise was coming from. Renee could feel her heart jump into her throat. Her face went pale; they were here. They had found the Town. Terror and panic soon swept Huntingtown; everyone knew what those monsters could do. After all, they did conquer the planet and impose the "choosing." Huntingtown was created hoping that its isolation in a cold climate would keep the Predators away, but it didn't. A voice came over those speakers. A male voice Gruff and laced with a growl. It was almost as if whoever was speaking was annoyed and angry. "Although I have enjoyed seeing your little Town outmaneuver many hunters. I am afraid this is where your little games end. However, I will give you a chance to keep your freedom. A hunt. You will be red by your best hunter, Renee Madison." Renee felt her blood go cold as she stared wide-eyed at the ship. She was unknowingly dropping her gun at the news. " she will be your leader; she will be my prize. You have a time advantage. Go!" The ship took off, looking for a place to land, all while the news sank into the Town's residence. Renee had known she had fucked up when she fired at one of those predators and hit him. She had proven herself worthy of the hunt. Now she has to face the consequences, not only her but her entire Town had to. Renee had to win this hunt; the fate of her Town depended on it.

The blue Astrum of memories by DarkValkyrie6

Some of you believe in fate and some of you don't. That's ok in our world. In the world that I created Fate has been acting strange and selfish for a long time. She was always fascinated with humans and the fact that they had soulmates because a lot of other races didn't. Ever since humans started traveling through space, that opened millions of new opportunities for Fate to make the human soulmates meet. However, because of her strange behavior, Fate made too many mistakes. After that, Fate made what she thought, was a good move. What she didn't count on was that the good move she made knew that you can cheat fate. One and his crew don't know how ironic it is that she chose them to make her good move. -------------------------------------- Notes: I didn't use any movies or series for inspiration, the story is my original work. This is just the result of my weird imagination and brain thinking about what that character would do and telling me what to write. I hope you like it :) It's just a story, like all of my other stores. It doesn't have a deeper spiritual, moral or ethical meaning.
