Imagine a steampunk world in the Victorian era in modern ages. That's where Syl is. Syl, eighteen, has spent her entire life in the Gear Hall as an Engineer, a top ranking job in the world of Varse, or for as long as she can remember. Her last memory was her when she was four years old, being taken by her guardian Marv to the Hall. Beyond that, she has no recollection of anything, her parents, friends, nothing. She only has a small locket of two children to remind her of her past. 

One day, after fourteen years, the missing Princess of Thorns is found in the midst of a brutal war between Thorns and Pyro and a spark of hope is to be regained. Syl is given the honor of creating the wedding between Princess Sylvia and Prince Tom of Illicia, the bond that will strengthen the Army and push Thorn into victory. But once Syl arrives at the palace, a series of events will change her life forever...

35 parts Complete Mature
You've just woken in the woods, away from everything you know. You're dazed and confused, unable to comprehend what's just happened. As you are coming to, images flash before your eyes of the last few days. Your parents were taken by the police, you were forced to run, to leave everything behind, to save yourself and your sister. But she isn't here. You panic and look around, you stop. You remember. She too was taken, you are alone. For now. This is what happened to Alexander, his life has just been turned upside down. The year is 2415, the world has both evolved and devolved. It isn't how people imagined. Flying cars, robots in every house, telekinetic pencils. No, they are only in comic books. Self driving cars. No robots in houses, but workhouses instead. Telekinetic pencils... that's possible, if you are gifted with the power of telekinesis. There are dark truths hidden behind closed doors, that only few know. Truths that if they got out, would bring the downfall of the government. A government that has been deceiving people for generations. But they haven't been as careful as they thought, because 100 years ago, one guy found out their secrets. 100 years ago, one guy started the rebellion that would bring about the end. From burning books, rewriting history and breaking human rights, this government will stop at nothing to make it seem that they are doing good. But people have had enough, the secret came out before. It's only a matter of time until it happens again. This time by a group of people that no one expected. Together they work to find out the truth, but things have gotten worse over the last century and this may not only bring around the downfall of the government. Armed only the powers they were born with, the group do everything they can to discover the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. But many have tried and failed, do they really stand a chance? Alexander doesn't think so, but his main concern is finding his sister, Rosia.

Never had she seen a ray of sun or a twinkle of stars but only heard about a world that existed above them in books. Her foster family prepared her and hundreds of girls for a deal that they were never told about. When she turned sixteen, they opened them for sale to the scientists and werewolves for experiments. Afraid, she took the chance that she believed was necessary to save herself and someday them, even if it could end her life. She ran away far and clueless until she accidentally trespassed the territory of Blood Moon pack. Lucky for Mira, the Alpha of the pack was on a run before pack warriors could find and kill her for a rogue. He took her to the packhouse, treated her wounds and gave her space to start a new life. For Alpha Maximus, she should have been a recovery case, but she was more than that. Mateless for a decade, he couldn't understand why he was getting attracted toward a barely adult human. She made him and his wolf feel things that they never experienced before. For two years, he had been in the shade until the night came to answer his confusion. His suspicion turned into reality when he smelt her and found out she was his mate. A human for a mate, but that wasn't the issue, the issue was mating season and him being on heat. Guess what could make her run away from the generous Alpha and turn him into a cruel, closed-off brute? And how would he react when secrets would unveil, truth start to unfold and attraction turn into a feral obsession?
