The Return of the Gods ⚔️ (Children of the Sun Book 1)
[2023 Wattys Shortlist, 2023 Amby Awards winner, Featured 5 times in Wattpad Picks lists] Kaleth has worked as an agent of Luxarx for years. What the average person might see as an exciting, dangerous job has become the routine, and the only thing that fazes Kaleth now is that his habit of wearing suits everywhere is somehow still a thing his teammates tease him over. But that's all about to change. An encounter with one unexpectedly peaceful (and cute) terrorist soldier brings everything he thought he knew into question. If not all Umbra are dangerous criminals, what else does Luxarx get wrong? As he investigates, Kaleth stumbles onto a conspiracy that doesn't just concern the agency, but also his government, and the whole world. There are monsters hiding in plain sight, secretly in charge of everything since the very beginning - the long-forgotten dragon-gods with supernatural abilities. And they are definitely not as mythological as everyone thought. Now branded traitors, can Kaleth and his team fight back against the government they once served, and stop a world war before it can start? --------------------------- [word count: ≈ 90 000 words] [Featured in Wattpad Picks lists: 'Extraordinary Realms ✨' in December 2023, 'Reading Radar' in January 2024, 'Celebrating Wattpad Hits' in February 2024, and Valiant Heroes 🏰✨🏔 in June 2024, Rabbit Hole Reads 👀 in April 2026, and also on the @fantasy profile]Complete
Rebirth Road
Do your past mistakes define you? After being left behind in the rapture, Lara Lessu begins to travel the post-societal collapse world filled with those not worthy enough of being taken to the paradise. Loneliness is everywhere, but to Lara's luck, she is not alone with Namu Pala and her cat, Neppy, accompanying her in the journey. Pond, Pillage, and Unreal arc have been weekly releases. Going forward, each arc will be released in a bulk every some months. The story in total will have nine arcs. ATTENTION! If you didn't pay attention to the tag last time, the story has been marked mature as the story contains mature themes related to mental health that could push the story to be 'mature' by Wattpad's standards, but I would say it's fine for a 16+ person to read it. Started: 26th of April, 2024 Ended: ??? Special thanks to https://www.wattpad.com/user/SmugMemph for contributions to the story! And special thanks to @tatsudraws.bsky.social for the story visual in chapter 82!

How fucking turned on I am by your innocence?" He says between quick breaths. I involuntarily let out a moan as his mouth trails my neckline. "Just say the words and I'll fuck you, Em." He says and I quickly nod. "No, say it. I need to know you want me, I need to know how much you need me inside of you." He says, his emerald eyes piercing straight through me.

Awakening
A small and quiet Utah town is full of life. Friendly neighbors. Beautiful scenery. Friends and family that stand by you no matter what. And the light of faith being their guide and protection. Also hostile shadowy creatures, a town-wide epidemic, an unexpected famine, and unrest between even the closest of friends. And standing in the middle of it all is an ordinary young man with the remarkable, and secret, ability to see spirits and specters. Or at least, that's what he thought. Turns out he's the most unordinary being there, and with his town falling into disarray, all he has are his abilities and a mysterious weapon only he can wield.
