He walked into a saloon.
He left behind silence, blood, and a story no one would ever tell the same way twice.
In a land ruled by reputation and revenge, one man doesn't speak unless it's already too late.
And when he does-someone's about to drink something they shouldn't.
_A Western soaked in smoke, myth, and the kind of violence that makes legends whisper._

Echo
He was never supposed to be a voice. They wanted an Echo-silent, compliant, nothing more than a reflection of their design. But the boy they tried to unmake listened too closely. Learned too much. Refused too deeply. Answering a call he never understood, Echo stepped into a world that demanded he forget himself to survive. He didn't. Instead, he grew teeth. Chose war over obedience. Chose love over chains. Now, freedom costs blood, survival demands brutality, and devotion sharpens into something sacred and savage. He is not their Echo. He is his own. And he will never be silent again.Complete
A land of Sinners
An Ol' timey story about the good old days in the west as one man cannot rest after his wife's death. filled with vengeance he tells a story of how he avenges his wife and captures its killer. Along the way, he meets his friends who share their experiences too of how it would be in the Wild West and their very own struggles. Little do they know, their extent to avenge such someone will bring out the worst of man. Each stepping being harder and harder as it progressed more in the west. Each goal getting more desperate or more drunk. Their goals were clear but was their conscience? I've had fun writing this as it uses a bit of common language but I hope you all have fun reading this as much as I did. (Preferable to read in a souther accent)
The Man In The Poncho
In the blood-red dusk of the dying Wild West, a nameless cowboy rides alone, draped in a dusty poncho, shadowed by legend. He doesn't speak much-but when he does, the world listens. Some say he's a ghost. Others swear he's Death itself, walking the desert with a six-gun beneath his cloak and judgment in his eyes. After a deadly standoff, he spares a highway robber-only to teach him a lesson harsher than any noose. What begins as a tale of vengeance turns into a deeper journey of redemption, betrayal, and the strange friendship between the damned and the divine. Along the way, they cross paths with real outlaws, lost children, preachers with blood on their hands, and old warriors like Sitting Bull. But this isn't just a Western. This is a reckoning. A test of what it means to fall-and to rise again. Because sometimes, even Death gives second chances. But not third.Complete
The Last Draw
An outlaw love story with bite. Cassidy "Copper" Lane doesn't do trust, not after what the world's taken from her. She rides solo, shoots straight, and keeps her scars where everyone can see them-so no one dares get close. Then Arthur Morgan shows up. Van der Linde gang enforcer. Too serious. Too smart. And way too good at peeling back the walls she spent years building. Thrown together by bad luck and worse timing, Cassidy and Arthur navigate bullets, bounty hunters, and betrayal on the fading edge of the Wild West. She's got a sharp tongue. He's got a quiet kind of storm. Together, they're either the perfect disaster or the last chance either of them has at redemption. Witty, brutal, and full of heart, The Last Draw is a gritty western romance where survival means keeping your gun loaded-and maybe, just maybe, letting someone in. Inspired by the world of Red Dead Redemption II, this gritty tale of survival, revenge, and redemption is a must-read for fans of Western epics and slow-burning romances.
Men of Iron - Book 2: Fractured By Her Silence
When a girl with a gun and a binder walks into Raven's Ridge, she doesn't come to play. She comes with algorithms, a muffin tray, and a mind sharp enough to dissect a man without ever lifting a blade. But when her silence draws the attention of the Men of Iron, she becomes more than a statistic - she becomes a variable no one can control. Grinder doesn't talk about the past. Doesn't flinch. Doesn't fail. As the club's enforcer, he's the one they send when silence needs teeth. But the girl isn't afraid of his violence. She's afraid of what happens when he looks at her like she's not broken - just unfinished. She speaks in probabilities. He answers in scars. And the more they try to stay out of each other's way, the more they unravel something that doesn't obey logic. But danger doesn't always come with warning signs. And when the people hunting her close in, protecting her won't be enough. In a world built on silence, fire, and blood - sometimes the most dangerous thing isn't the man with the weapon... It's the girl who teaches him how to feel.Complete
Two Graves in the Dust
Cassian never planned on betrayal-at least not from his own crew. Left broken and bleeding on the edge of the desert, he flees with nothing but the memory of guns and blades at his back. Survival shouldn't be possible... until he's found by Koda, a quiet tracker with secrets of his own. Bound by chance and desperation, the two men carve a path across towns that barely remember mercy and sands that swallow everything whole. Cassian carries rage like a weapon; Koda carries silence like a shield. Together, they forge an uneasy alliance that shifts, slowly, into something neither can name. But the desert is not empty. Pursuers close in, old debts rise from the dust, and trust-once broken-may never be repaired. To survive, they must decide what they're willing to fight for, and what they're willing to bury. Because in a land of betrayal and blood, there are only two endings: forgiveness... or two graves in the dust.
I've Become Like Him
"Ahhh!!!" The man's body falls to the floor limp and I fall to the floor out of terror, "Why are you screaming? I saved you from being raped." I look at the man who is holding a gun with a little smile on his face. He holds the gun up to my head and I start crying, "P-Please, p-please don't do this. I-I won't tell anybody." He bends down and I whimper, "I don't think I can let you go. What happened you run and tell in the next three days? You've already seen my face and heard my voice." I shake my head, "I swear I won't tell anybody! I-I don't know anybody!" He looks at me up and down, "I'll give you two choices. I kill you now or you come with me. You can keep me entertained for a while." €€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€ Lyric Dime is a twenty-one year old loner who works in a top tier casino.

All The Little Lights
"You are kidding me, right?" I asked, narrowing my eyes. "Do I seem like I am kidding?" "No, you don't. But I also don't feel that I will listen to you." I said, giving him my infamous innocent smile Me!!! Clean his shoes?!! Who in the hell does he think he is?!! "You will. These shoes are limited edition pieces of one of the world's most expensive brands. Being the gentleman I am, I am not making you buy me a new one. I need you to clean it. Simple." "Do I look like I care? Oh..Look..my cup of care is empty." I said, motioning to the now empty coffee cup in my hands. He looked at me, then to my hands. Slowly, he nodded his head in understanding. Next thing I know, I am drenched in water, and he is closing the water bottle in his hands. I looked at him with my mouth agape. "You're right. I can see your cup of care is empty, but, seems like it is brimming with arrogance." With that, he walked away while I stood there thinking of a thousand torturous ways to kill him. Fantastic!! Just another addition to my list of paybacks. ------------------------------------- They two are nothing but mere strangers put together by the hands of fate, and they couldn't help but have to bear the unwanted presence of each other in their life, a little longer. After all, what could possibly go wrong? Sit back and enjoy, for this is going to be one hell of a ride ;) **************** Rated mature. *contains violenceComplete
