Violet Maddox grew up Gallagher-adjacent-same cracked sidewalks, same busted heat, same survival-is-a-sport mindset. 
She's been tethered to Lip and Ian since before they knew what loyalty meant, and maybe that's the problem. 
There's no line between friendship and survival anymore, and no safety in pretending everything's still innocent. 
Especially when Violet starts drawing attention-from strangers, from the wrong people, and from Lip, who's gotten too good at hiding how he looks at her.

As secrets pile and the South Side keeps taking more than it gives, trust turns brittle. Love goes unspoken. And one night-one betrayal, one flash of jealousy-is all it takes to shatter what little control they have left.

This is a story about wreckage in slow motion. About the kids who weren't supposed to make it. About the moments that twist your stomach and punch your chest and make you wonder if anything broken can still be worth saving.

Because this isn't a love story.

It's a fallout story-with teeth.

Colton's Miracle ✔️ (Moved To Inkitt) by fanoshkaflippo
7 parts Complete Mature
Officially a Wattpad Creator! This book is my lucky charm. Colton has grown up knowing nothing but anger, hatred, and pain. His past doesn't allow him to enjoy life like others do. Instead, he paints a glare on his face that scares most people away. And then suddenly, a petite little red head with freckles and a radiant smile shoves her way into his life, changing every concept he thought he knew and breaks every rule he thought he needed. With every encounter, the ice around Colton's heart melts until his heart is free to beat as loudly as it can, just for Lily. With a past even darker than Colton's, Lillian chooses her armor to be a smile. She has so many reasons to succumb to the darkness that fills her once innocent heart, but she focuses on enjoying the new life she just started. Being the new girl means she's free to pretend that she's just like everyone else, normal. And when she meets the rude and grumpy Colton, she can't help but notice how alike they actually are. Slowly, the two broken souls begin to help each other heal, and together, they start to learn what it's like to be loved, unaware that the ghosts of the past are still hovering in the shadows. **Topics mentioned in this story could be triggering, such as: Physical Abuse, and Sexual Harrassment. **There will be mature content (Explicit Scenes and Swearing). **All photos used are not mine and are found for public use. ** This is a work of fiction.

❝ I love to hate you; because if I don't, then I will hate to love you. ❞ (PLEASE note that this was my first work and is unedited. I've greatly matured in my writing and please don't judge me on the basis of this piece of work. Read at your own behest.) ~ "You know....." he whispered seductively. "People would die to see us together." Huh, as if. "Too bad their dreams won't ever come true." I leaned forward and gave him a sorry look. "Ever." I added with a sharp edge and narrowed my eyes. He smirked. I stood my ground. But I could still feel my cheeks take up a slight pink. It also made me think if Sam was my only mysterious problem. But I knew better. ~ They're arch-enemies. One popular, friendly girl and a hugely dangerous secret. One popular, arrogant guy and a dark deadly secret. One ruined relationship. Two entwined secrets. They hate. They bite. They prank. They fight. But above all.....they deny. When popular and handsome Sam Drew Lockhart and just as much of his equal regarding arrogance and sarcasm, Lea Olsen Summers, find themselves at their usual revenge crossroads, sparks weren't meant to go off. They never did in the last three years, so why would they now? With a mystery to unravel and a dangerous and mysterious stalker hot on her heels, Lea finds herself in a tight spot. What she thought would be easy, soon turned into a dangerous game of cat and mouse. Feeling history repeat itself, Sam isn't really willing to let everything, including Lea, go easily. Even if his secrets are in danger of being revealed. Now despite all this happening, was friendship; let alone love, still an option for these two? That too, when more than a few guys were willing to fight for Lea's affections? Read to find out. And trust me........ You want to. ~ (Please proceed by clicking on the READ button and do vote and comment! Slowly being Edited. PS: This is a work of fiction, please don't copy it.

Unknown Horizons  by UntoldwarLove
72 parts Ongoing
Second Contact: War of the Deep Valley The war for survival was only the beginning. Months after the crash of the Ardent Dawn, Commander Mizuno Kaede and her surviving crew have built a fragile foothold on the uncharted planet known as Zion - a world eerily similar to Earth, yet filled with ancient secrets buried beneath its emerald skies. When contact is made - not with rescue ships, but with a new alien civilization - everything changes. The species that emerges from the Deep Valley of Ocean Bay are not the mindless predators the squad expected. They are the Ael'thari - a long-lived, tribal people whose lifespans stretch across centuries. Their warriors fight with precision older than human memory; their seers speak in voices that seem to echo through time itself. At first, Mizuno seeks peace. But peace comes at a cost. A human scouting team vanishes near the valley. Diplomatic envoys return in silence. Then the skies burn - tracer fire over the ocean, flames reflected in the waves - and the Second Contact War begins. Now Mizuno stands at the center of a conflict neither side truly understands. Her orders are clear: secure Zion, eliminate threats, ensure human survival. But as the war deepens, she uncovers truths that defy her command and challenge her loyalty. The Ael'thari are not fighting for conquest - they're fighting for memory, for the right to exist against a species that cannot comprehend time the way they do. With her Shadow Squad fractured, alliances shifting, and her own command questioned, Mizuno must choose between following Earth's protocol - or following her conscience. Because on Zion, survival is not about who wins the war... ...it's about who remembers it first.

"Three weeks. That's how long I got to have drama-free. I'm not sure what is happening to me or to Oakwood. Nothing's the same since I rolled into town and it just keeps getting weirder. Suspicious agents in suits roam the streets without an explanation. They're staring straight at me. The new Chemistry teacher is NOT who he says he is. I'm doing things I never thought I could. Like, mutant-level things... Lauren, Luc's dead twin sister, hid something from everyone. Something important that may have lead to her demise and that could lead to ours. Hunters are in town. I never knew four words could contain so much dread and terror. I'd rather deal with the Wanderers. I'm on the brink of a breakdown. I need help..." BOOK #2 IN THE SERIES! Ignorance is not bliss... In the wake of ridding Oakwood of Wanderers, other dangers come creeping in and they're somehow linked to Luc's absent twin. The past returns to haunt the mutants in inconspicuous ways. Riley's life is yet again in jeopardy, but this time she's not alone. Luc and his family are all thrown into the teetering balance. More secrets are uncovered. A trap dawns on them all. Invisible threats start crawling from all directions. Who is the real enemy? TW : behaviours of depression and PTSD are displayed. I don't name them, but one of the character will be struggling a lot. It may not be suitable for everybody. Other adult matters are briefly included, but nothing explicit or intense. Rewriting specifications : the main points of the story and end of the book will remain the same, am just going to change a few ways of getting there and adding some extra spice. Feel free to pause the read until the REWRITING sign disappears.
Perfect Fate ✔ (Moved To Inkitt) by fanoshkaflippo
13 parts Complete Mature
Wattpad Creator! Happy and proud. HIM: Staying the night? Not my thing. Hearts and flowers? Boring. Falling in love? Not anytime soon. Settling down? Off the table. Getting married? You're kidding me, right? That was me before the night we first met. Because, well, meeting a hot chick that made me hard just by looking at her was definitely not in my plans when I sneaked out of a woman's apartment after what was already a long night. Taking her home and getting her a chocolate cake, though, was kind of intentional. But falling for her? Boy, that was pretty much inevitable. HER: He came out of nowhere, literally. I was there, sitting on that bench, barefoot and crying and just getting my heart broken in peace and silence. Then he appeared, all mad and furious and sexy and tall and just drool-worthy! And just like that, despite my poor attempts of escaping him, he had me wrapped in his world. A crazy yet heart-fluttering world, that I have absolutely no intentions of leaving anytime soon. ------- Character development is a main theme in this book. It shows you how they both work on changing for the better, while trying to overcome the obstacles in their relationship and fight for each other till the end. ** Warning!! Some chapters contain sexual scenes, but there's always a warning at the head of the chapter. Do not read them if you're under 18.** * Also, please beware that this story contains a lot of swearing.
