Men. Men that fight in wars have to be insane enough to put them selves through the treacherous battles that they face. If not insane, then men have to be just bland enough, just plain enough, just dull enough to put them selves through these life or death situations. That's exactly what we have, bland, plain, dull, men who have nothing better to do than put themselves into war. Among these men though, we have three. Three men who consist of a Black smith, a Poet, and a Shepherd. Why do these men, who can make a living off of what they do, join this group of nobodies into battle? I personally have no clue. Maybe they assumed it would be all sunshine and rainbows. But after what happened one random Tuesday afternoon, I can see why these men stuck around a little longer.

So Speaks the Ruinous Light || To Herald a Dawn Book 1
[Queer rage as a form of reckoning] [dark one destined to destroy the world] You can find this book on Amazon if you want to own a print version! *** As a healer in the Obsidian Castle, One follows a voice into the forest, speaking from the mist. It tells him he's the Destroyer, straight out of prophecy, and that he's not a Night Warrior like the other residents of the castle. Eight years later, One's doing a great job hiding that his magic works like no one else's in the Obsidian Castle. But Perseverance, a Night Warrior who believes One needs redirection to find "proper" romance, makes One's life miserable from sundown to sunup. So One's plan to get Perseverance out of his life is to date his daughter--until she discovers his light magic and turns on him, making him flee into the woods. One has many reasons to despise Perseverance. So when he meets Michael, an expert at light magic, it's really not a question of "if" One will embrace this prophetic Destroyer role and enact vengeance--it's a matter of One having no clue how to control his magic, or take on a castle full of Night Warriors by himself. But with Michael, he's not alone. And with their combined magic, One could summon the dawn itself to carry out revenge.Complete
No Sacrifice Too Great | COD WW2 Story
"No mission too difficult, no sacrifice too great." The words of wisdom and bravery. Being the only female in the platoon was no different from being another guy. Everyone treats me the same as they do with everyone else. I just...wish it stayed that way. Now, I feel like a distraction, rather than a comrade. | This story is inspired by Call Of Duty WWII. I only own part of the storyline, but a majority of it is owned by Sledgehammer Games. |Complete
Why do we Fight? - Volume I - For Honor
Good soldiers follow orders, but true warriors know what is right. Since the start of civilization, soldiers have been a part of every society. They are trained only for one thing: War. Though it is not necessarily a part of the human mentality, it has existed and ravaged over the millenias. Occasionally, a soldier would ask himself: "Why do they fight?" "Is it really worth the lives of our brothers and sisters?" ... "Does love bloom in the darkest of paths?" ++++++++++++++++++++ OC x Male reader insert Slow paced romance and may include in-game characters with actual personalities and interactions that I made myself, because come on. Naming NPCs without backstories? Makes the story kind of bland for me but meh, that's my opinion. Default name for the reader is 'Argen Lorderius.' Btw, I do not own any pictures and other stuff in the fanfic. Refer to the disclaimer on each chapter :/.Complete
Logan
*TW* Contains topics and scenes of sexual assault, self-harm, abuse.* "You know you loved every second of it," I can feel the tears welling up as well as the anger building up within me. I stare at him for a while before I have to turn away from his hungry gaze. "Look I just came here to tell you that I forgive you for what you did back in Cali and I'll take you back," "You forgive me?" I yell. "I did nothing to you. You raped me! You fucking raped me! You have no right to come here and tell me that. You. Forgive. Me. You traumatized me. What you did to me tore me up inside and was eating away at me until I tried to kill myself. And when I told people they didn't believe me. I had to listen to so many people talk about how great a guy you were and how I clearly just regretted sleeping with you. You are a monster. You made me hate myself for something that was never my fault. You have caused me so much pain and suffering," I pause to take a deep breath. "So you don't get to come here to my school and tell me you forgive me. You don't get to make me feel bad about coming forward.

BROKEN VOWS (Lucas & Emilia Book 1)
Choosing her cost me everything I'd ever loved... including her. It's why I left the small town where I grew up and vowed never to return. I'm no longer the "golden boy with a bright future" they all remember. Instead, I carry the scars of a tortured past. A broken man deemed unfit, even by the Navy SEALs he'd dedicated the past decade to serve. What was supposed to be a quick trip to sell my parents' property turned into this twisted journey that forced me to confront my demons. And then there she was. My first love, and deepest regret. The woman who still owns every piece of my blackened heart. When she asked for my time, I couldn't refuse. Now I can't walk away. Not after hearing of the danger her husband, a missing FBI agent, has brought to her doorstep. After everything, I owe her my help. It's why I offer to protect her and her two little girls from the danger circling them. It's a vow I never should have made, given the trail of bodies I've left in my wake. Like the harbinger of death, I'm the last man either of us should trust. In the Broken Redemption Series, one man's vow to protect the woman he lost becomes a battle between redemption, forgiveness, and the kind of love that refuses to let go. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Lucas & Emilia's story begins here: Book 1 of their Broken Redemption arc. Each couple's love story in the Broken Redemption Series is told over multiple books and forms a complete arc within this collection of connected romances set in the small town of Ruby Creek.

Love with strings detached
I put on a show only for him in front of hundreds of people. I bring one hand up to my hair flicking them to the other side, trailing that hand down to my sternum and then my boob as I keep swaying my hips from to side, bending my knees as I lower myself a bit to the ground before sharply standing up again and slowly spinning around, circling my hips. I run my hands through the back of my hair before nailing my gaze on his eyes, slowly walking up to him. I watch him as he wets his lips before biting his plumb bottom one, eyes trailing up my body. Once I reach him, I wrap my arms around his neck and run my fingers through his hair as I press my body up against his. His hands shoot out to grab me from my lower waist, pulling me even closer to him as he pushes a leg between mine, staring into my eyes. I turn my head to the side and brush my lips against his ear before licking and biting his earlobe the same way I did at the party before whispering a few words he was dying to hear. "Take me back to your place." ---------- Theo is a 20-year-old university student with a bad temper. Letting go of the past can be a difficult thing to do but a much-needed one to move on.

The Ballad of The Amberstone
If you're like me, you're tired-tired of being told you're ordinary, tired of doing the same thing that everyone else is doing, tired of the countless books, movies, and stories that imprint the idea that only The Chosen One can change the world while the rest of us are forced to watch from the sidelines. If you're like me, then you're also not The Chosen One. But wouldn't you like to be? If you were given the chance to be The Chosen One, wouldn't you take it? What if you knew it was a stone-cold lie? My journey unfolds on a secret island located somewhere between the end of the road and the middle of nowhere. Upon arrival, the inhabitants believed I was Gabriel-the prophet of the prophecy destined to save the island of Concordia from an extinction-level civil war. There's just one problem: I am not Gabriel. But that didn't stop me from stealing the mantle of The Chosen One for myself, unprepared for the consequences this lie would unfold and ill-equipped for what being The Chosen One really means. What followed was an epic clash of culture, values, and heart as each of the five divided Kingdoms of Concordia tried to convince me that their way of life was best. Can I fool them and fulfill the prophecy of Gabriel, or will my lie ignite the greatest war in the island's history.Complete
