The Orbit of Ruin is a romantic sci-fi epic about two souls from opposite worlds, bound by fate and rebellion.

Silarum, a hardened scavenger surviving on the wastelands of Nyraxis, knows better than to interfere with dying off-worlders. But when she discovers a wounded Dominion elite-the very kind who hoard the galaxy's wealth and power-she makes a choice that will alter the course of her life.

Kaeladris Vorn was born to rule, but he is no prince-he is a fugitive, hunted for betraying the very empire that created him. Bleeding out on an uncharted desert world, he expects death, not salvation from a knife-wielding woman who looks at him like he's worth less than the dirt beneath her boots.

Thrown together by war, hunted by forces beyond their control, Silarum and Kael must navigate a crumbling empire, their own betrayals, and the undeniable pull between them. But love was never meant to survive in the orbit of ruin.All Rights Reserved

A Spaceman by kullman

Aliens? Check. Space soldiers? Check. Murder? Check. Life is never boring in the Cygenus galexy. Set thousands of years in the future, A Spaceman, follows the escapades of a traitor to the human race throughout his lifetime from training as a Space Cadet to ultimately attempting to rule humanity. Aligned with the alien forces, the traitor seeks to rule the humans and aliens and destroy the people he once despised, but he may ultimately destroy himself. Violent good fun , this dark comedy pulls no punches with rotating stream of conscious narrative involving a few moral characters (some of whom actually make it out of it alive). Ultimately, we know the traitor must fall and good must win out, but in the end, do we really want it to? Amoral and highly intelligent the traitor flouts the forces of good and outsmarts the human forces as they gradually inch closer to capturing him, all the while letting the reader in on the fun of unadulterated evil. An addictive guilty pleasure, A Spaceman is an unforgettable ride with a surprise ending. NOTE: If you are offended my same-sex relationships or murder please go elseware.

But the closer he gets to the truth, the more he realizes that survival isn't just about outsmarting his pursuers-it's about proving that he's more than the label they've pinned on him. With unexpected allies, old wounds, and a ruthless enemy determined to silence him, The Merc must decide how far he's willing to go to clear his name-and whether revenge or freedom lies at the end of his journey.

Starforge by MIKEBLUEINFERNOH

Ahmad Iskandar was an ordinary college student, stuck in the rut of a life that felt meaningless. But one fateful night, he's torn from Earth and thrust into an alien galaxy on the brink of collapse. Waking up amidst the wreckage of colossal starships and endless war, Iskandar discovers a mysterious crest on his hand-the mark of the Starforge. The Starforge is the universe's greatest mystery: an ancient, all-powerful construct said to create and destroy worlds at will. Legends speak of it as a tool for salvation... or ultimate annihilation. Now, as the first bearer of the Forge's crest in centuries, Iskandar finds himself hunted by alien factions, rogue machines, and mercenaries desperate to claim the Forge's power for themselves. Guided by Kaela, a battle-hardened warrior with secrets of her own, Iskandar must navigate a galaxy full of danger, betrayal, and wonder. He'll need to uncover the Forge's purpose-and his role in its destiny-before it falls into the wrong hands. But as Iskandar delves deeper, he begins to question the Forge's true intentions. Was he chosen to save the galaxy... or to destroy it? With epic space battles, ancient mysteries, and a reluctant hero caught between worlds, Starforge blends the thrill of an isekai adventure with the grandeur of interstellar sci-fi.

Rebuilt | Solar x Ruin | Sun and Moon show by ReadingStatic

This story takes place after my last Solar x Ruin book, if you want to understand whats happening for the first couple chapters I'd recommend reading the first book. There will be devisions from the canon included. This is more or less a slice of life story, I'm gonna try to keep it fluffy and not do so much drama this book(SIKE-). I struggle with spelling and grammar, so if you find anything off, please comment about it, so it can be fixed as soon as possible! Cover art made by me!

The "Actor" And The "Mechanic" by JustABisexualOnWatt

Solar and Ruin have hidden feelings for the other that slowly(kinda) gets found out and explored. (Shit description, I know...) WARNINGS! LONG AS FUCK 1ST CHAPTER Violence Description of Injury and Bleeding Sexual Acts/Words (Smut, too) Teasing Eclipse. Swears Running Away Pity/Guilt Angst Romance (Duh) Clique Shit +More These warnings will not be at the top of the chapters due to length and the warnings being mostly overall in plenty of chapters. This will be published all in the same day, so when it's done, it's done, unless I decide to make a sequel(WHICH I WONT). Fixing grammar for me is fine, and asking about things it fine.
