Leo Lauder is a perfectly ordinary guy. Or at least that's what he tells everyone. Formerly a B-list supervillain, after reality(and top tier superhero the All-Chemist) hit him in the face he hung up his mask and decided to go legit. But a degree in sociology and a suspiciously large gap in his resume means he's back to square one in the job department. With no other options to make ends meet, Leo takes an entry level job in the only field he knows: supervillainy. But while Leo wants to hide away as a nameless henchman, life has other plans for him. A supervillain back from the dead, a misunderstanding with a powerful friend turned foe, and the constant tug of Leo's conscience all culminate to bring him back into a world that he was all too happy to leave.

Shortlisted for the Open Novella Contest 2019 • Being a Supervillain is tough. Between managing a secret lair and making sure your mom doesn't stop loving you because you keep telling everyone she's dead, it's a really hard business to be good at? Add to that, the fact that somehow you got arrested because your cat sitter didn't take the day off and then you go around expressing your unconditional love for pancakes in a Super holding cell because technically they can't put you in a proper prison and you don't really have a choice because lawyers are expensive? And then, you realise your best friend is plotting go take over your spot as the greatest villain there ever was? Okay, maybe not the greatest, but you do come pretty close to it! To top it off, there's that one Superhero who's just so completely gorgeous, you couldn't imagine any harm coming to them? Because they're just that precious? I guess that makes me a Supervillain with minor time travel superpowers and a huge crush on a not so powerful Superhero? And all you have to do is protect yourself and everyone you love from your ex best friend/sidekick --because let's face it that's the highest level of praise for a wretched traitor here--and you also have to get out of Super Holding somehow? What could go wrong? Right?

SNIPPET OF CHAPTER 5: "In one swift motion, he came close to me, flipped my hand over, took the gun and turned me around so that my back was to his chest. His hand held mine behind my back and pointed the gun at my temple as he leaned dangerously close to my ear. I could feel a massive erection at the top of my tailbone. His cool breath sent shivers down my neck. I was too hesitant to not restrain." ~STOLEN~ mafia/romance/tragedy

Oh wow, was it warm in here? No actually, it was pretty cold, so why was his face hot? And WHY was his heart feeling like it was about to explode? You know what, he was just gonna let the hero go.

A high-school story about two boys. A popular boy, Pierre, falls in love with a goth boy, Nico. But because of their polar opposite looks and personalities, he thinks that the stoic goth won't love him back. Something changes when Pierre turns sixteen. Suddenly, he is blessed by the gods with the power of being able to make any wish on an angel number, and the wish will come true instantly. But can love be forced? Is it wrong to force someone to be in love with you? Will the wishes last? That is the catch. For the one minute that you get to make the wish, you can add any conditions you want. Except that whatever it is can NOT last forever. You could make it last for an hour or two or for the rest of the day, maybe even a week. The limit is a month. But after the time you have asked the wish for, the effects cease to exist. And whatever happened will be forgotten. The only person who can remember what happened is the wish maker. In this scenario being Pierre. Pierre can ask for absolutely anything to be cast upon someone or himself: love, death, revenge, sorrow. But if death is caused or revenge is pursued, the effects are unreversable. Once pain is inflicted, it does not heal after the time limit. Will Pierre use the wishes for good? Or will he abuse the power and cause havoc? Warning ⚠️: This is a BL (Boy's love). It is GAY! If you do not like it, then simply do not read it. Thank you! - Jessie.
