{2024 ONC Round One Ambassadors Pick }In the heart of the bustling Bronx, amidst the vibrant chaos of Highbridge, where the rhythm of life pulses through the streets, a resilient 18-year-old Camila finds herself thrust into a nightmarish struggle for survival. Balancing the weight of two jobs to support her family, Camila dreams of a better life beyond the confines of their cramped apartment. Little does she know that fate has a different plan.

When a mysterious outbreak turns the town she called home into a living nightmare, Highbridge transforms into a battleground of undead. Camila's world unravels as she races against time, desperately trying to navigate the levels of her apartment to reach her younger brother. The only problem that's between them is mad hordes of zombies lurking in every corner.

As the streets echo with the haunting groans of the undead, Camila's journey becomes a gritty, pulse-pounding odyssey through the darkened corridors of survival. Each level of her apartment complex presents new challenges, pushing her to the limits of courage and determination.

Will she conquer the shadows that threaten to consume her, or will the Bronx be her final resting point.

In a city of neon lights and corporate shadows, one girl's secret could make her the hunter-or the hunted. Chicago never sleeps. Beneath the glittering neon towers and high school dramas, something dangerous stirs in the shadows. Nikki Nova should have it all-cheer captain, friends who've got her back, and a city full of possibilities. But after one terrifying night in the wrong alley, her perfect life fractures. Strange changes ripple through her body, her senses sharpen to frightening levels, and haunting dreams drag her deeper into a world she doesn't understand. Caught between two lives: the girl everyone thinks she is, and the stranger she's becoming. To protect her friends, she disappears into the city's underbelly, where secrets lurk in every corner and powerful forces have noticed her. With the help of an unlikely ally, Nikki must uncover the truth behind her transformation-before it consumes her. But in a city run by ruthless corporations and haunted by things best left unseen, survival won't be easy. How long can Nikki keep her secret before the hunters find her? A Werewolf Cheerleader spin-off series. There might be some grammar errors because the chapters are first drafts. But I did edited them the best I can. Please notify me if you find any errors that I missed. Each chapter will be posted each except on the weekends. If I miss a day, I will post it the next day. There are violence, profanity, and some senstive content, but none of them are high. If I add some romance, they will be mild. Remember to leave a review and comments so they will help me out as a writer.

REVISED EDITION COMING OUT MONTHLY/COMPLETED In a world overrun by zombies, A single bite heralds doom - except for Kaindra, who defies death itself, being undead already. ******** As humanity struggles to adapt to the new reality of zombies-infested streets and lurking supernatural creatures from ancient myths and legends, survival becomes an ever-evolving challenge. Survival is a constant battle not only against the undead but also against supernatural creatures and their zealous followers. The relentless onslaught of zombies and the mysterious reemergence of mythical beings push society to its limits. Civilization's last bastions fall one by one, teetering on the brink of collapse. As these ancient myths awaken, they reveal intentions that are far from clear- some may hold the key to salvation, while others could herald further doom. The question remains: Can humanity unravel the mysteries of these legendary beings in time to save themselves, or will they fall prey to the very legends they once dismissed? ___ Excerpt: Taking a deep breath, I lean closer to the mirror, my skin prickling. I thought it was a trick of the light, but as I stare at my reflection, my fragile lies crumble away. The reflection staring back at me feels unrecognizable. My once deep, dark brown eyes now glimmer with an otherworldly light, like twin moons suspended in a sea of silver. The faint glow within them swirls softly, catching the dim flicker of flame I summoned, like ripples across a moonlit lake. Their alien intensity sends a chill down my spine. The orbs seemed to hold a universe within, depths of endless mysteries and ancient wisdom beyond my grasp. ___ Warning: Mentions of suicide and self-harm Beautiful cover made by @scmimi.

#1 In Zombieapocalypse #2 in Zombies "Want to know what the world ran out of first? Other than food and water, of course. Toilet paper. No one likes to mention what you do to use the bathroom during the apocalypse, but I really miss toilet paper." Growing up bouncing from foster home to foster home, Atalia Hart did whatever she could to survive. After graduating high school, she moved towns and began living a normal life. Atalia was a part time bartender taking night classes when the world suddenly became sick, and the dead came back to life craving the blood and flesh of what they once were. Once again, she's determined to survive. Especially since the sickness seemed to wipe out more of the female population than the male, she's got to be wary of both the living and the dead. Hart's got a bad attitude and a sailor's mouth, but everyone she meets along the way seem to be determined to follow the path she carves in this new world. Warning: this is a "why choose" reverse harem meets zombie apocalypse book. It has strong language and mature themes. Some scenes in this book are dark and demented. It might cause triggers for those who deal with PTSD or other mental health issues. Finished 1-16-20 Copyright © 2019 MLAM All rights reserved. This is a work of fiction.

[ONC 2023 SECOND PLACE WINNER | AMBASSADORS PICK 2023] An unwilling but gifted geneticist must find a way to safeguard humanity against the deadly pathogen she's forced to design or die trying. *** The planet's population is pushing past 11 billion and counting. With resources spread thin, widespread famine, and health systems crippled everywhere, the governments of the world are running out of ideas. Then a scientist proposes a controversial solution and the classified Project Rescue is born. But when the lead scientist on the project and his entire team mysteriously die, his young microbiology prodigy is brought into the secret government agency to take over where he left off. Ezra Mayur always hoped that her brilliance in pathogen studies would land her a secure job one day. This seems like a dream come true. Full food rations and safety for her struggling family, and a job in the field she is the most interested in. But the project is not quite what Ezra expected and her moral compass is tested when she has to choose between protecting her family or the world. *** PROMPTS that will make an appearance: 12. An evil sorcerer offers you an immense amount of power--but it comes with a price. (Modified: an evil corp offers you an opportunity of a lifetime, but it comes with a price.) 5. Flip the coin and make a life choice with it. Two choices, one coin, and no turning back. Do you dare?
