Sugarplum by fthisimout6767

Hi, it's back. I've edited the whole book now. Some parts are the same but others are really different. The biggest one is probably that Gianni isn't a mafia boss. He owns a company that is based in weapon control. So he works with the mafia but isn't in it.

Death Riders by infiniteflames_789

It's the year 1920 and England is slowly recovering from the events of the world war. The lower to middle-class families had to live off crumbs while the high-class families lived on as if the war never happened. 20-year-old Vivienne Marsedon, rebel daughter of an aristocratic family always believed she had another purpose rather than marrying another rich man and birthing a battalion of soldiers like her sisters. She didn't want to be oppressed by her peers and certainly didn't want to entertain the suitors knocking at her door every day. She wanted a life of her own and she was determined to make a living to escape from her oppressors. Back when men dominated the workforce and women's employment rights were still a grey area, she knew it was going to take more than her persuasion skills to land a job. The only company that would hire her was a notorious gang controlling most of England's underground activities called the death riders. Follow Vivienne as she disguises herself as a man to maintain her job, find her purpose in life and love maybe?

The end || ANGST STORY (+ Hazbin Hotel fanfic) by brain_sickness

if you're not good with PTSD or dark topics such as death/su*cide and addiction you shouldn't read this. Sorry for the sudden change in my writing style. Also this takes place in Hazbin Hotel character Angel Dust's past life, so no hell bullshit to worry about, and the begining chapters are probably going to be some backstory though so heads up for that. There may be spelling errors or punctuation errors by the way (I am dyslexic so💀) *New York accent is on purpose
