In Gilead, for both men and women, there are only so many roles. Dictated by birth, by sex, by affiliation, barely by belief. Reagan was a new mother when Gilead took over, and everything in her world fell. Now she finds herself trying to navigate an entire new life. Can she survive the minefield that is this violent place, or will she be yet another soul 'saved' by the mercy of Gilead? Will the man who saves her, keep her contained and content? Or can she, like the few lucky ones, escape to Canada, and see if the love of her life is still alive?

The Man Named Death ✔
"I don't know what I did to make you hate me, I haven't done anything to warrant how you ignore me! Please, just tell me!" "I'm in love with you, damn it!" He roars. "I love you so much Aphrodite, and you scare me because you are so strong and I don't want to be the one to break you!" * Aphrodite Muerte is hiding something and so is her long term crush Thanatos Amaro. Both are helplessly in love with one another and both have very different approaches on how to hide it. Love makes you do crazy things and with Aphrodite and Thanatos, it's no different. Pretending to hate Aphrodite, Thanatos manages to hide his true feelings which takes a toll on both of them. Thanatos has no idea what he's doing. Past trauma rules over Aphrodite at night causing nightmares and panic during the day. Aphrodite has no idea how to live life outside of pain. Abuse has a way of shaping people, and she's barely mended from being so broken. Both have friends that force them closer but their love might just be the reason why they end up staying together. Afterall, someone can only stay away from the person they're in love with for so long. One argument and a couple of confessions later leaves them on a confusing path that has the opportunity to be beautiful or disastrous. Love is magical but it is also savage. For Aphrodite and Thanatos, they are each other's downfalls and each others saviors. How long they last is up to them. How much they go through to get together is up to fate. In the end, will they make it or will their love end in splinters and heartache? * WARNING: Mature Content (of all sorts).

A crown of Secrets and Fire
I grew up safe, protected, adored, certain of the life that awaited me. A grand estate, a devoted father... a wedding to the perfect man. But the altar crumbled beneath me, my world ripped apart in a heartbeat. The silk turned to ruin, vows to ash, and in one heartbeat, everything I knew was gone. I find myself trapped in a fortress in the mountains, under the gaze of a man whose heart did not hesitate to shatter mine years ago.... Whose hands promise protection... and claim. He doesn't ask for my trust, he takes it, drags me into a world of lies, bold betrayals, and secrets I wasn't prepared to see. And the truth? I can't tell if he's my salvation... or the most delicious kind of trap I've ever known. I am Genevieve. My life was safe, my choices clear. But now, nothing is as it seems. And the man in the shadows... he is the storm I can't outrun. ⚠️ Content Disclaimer ⚠️ This work contains mature themes and potentially triggering content, including but not limited to: violence, death, emotional abuse, manipulation, trauma, sexual tension, and morally complex relationships.

Repopulating Uvis
Our planet had been on the way to destruction same as many others. However, we were able to turn it around but not without major irreversible genetic damage. It had been many years since a new female has been born on Uvis. We had set out and tried many other planets to find suitable breedable females. After much testing only one planet would work. Gaia or as the inhabitants called it Earth. We had been testing certain ones quietly. Working with their planet's leaders for a few years and have gotten the okay to reach out to the females of this planet. Everything was fine one day the next we kept losing power and then the announcements form the leaders and from an actual freaking alien! The offer was a good one for some, but could they be trusted? What would happen to the women who went to Uvis would they be treated well? Was it just a way to reduce the Earth's population so it was easier to take over? This is the same universe as Owned by them. New characters and a newer more civilized way of acquiring new females. This one is a bit more mature. I was writing this at the same time as the other.

Fear
Psychological Horror and Slow-burn Dark Romance. 18+ --------------------------- It's been five years since that fateful Friday night. I remember it like it was yesterday. The night I was kidnapped.

The Only One | Negan
"If love manages to sprout from the soil that hatred has irrigated, then that means it must be true love." What are you capable of doing to protect the ones you love? What about the ones you hate? What makes you fall for someone who you just know you shouldn't be falling for? Is it their smile? Is it their heart? Their voice? Maybe the small mannerisms like how their brows furrow in concentration? And how long does it take for that said someone to sneak into your heart when you know you shouldn't have left the door open? Maybe you should just let yourself find out. What's the worst that can happen? -- Hello, my lovely cherries! This story starts a while after our favorite antagonist Negan crosses paths with Rick Grimes and his group. There have been some alterations in terms of storyline, timeline and events, so I wanted to give you a heads up before you dive in, because there may be some confusion. It's an angsty and rough slow burn and there is some smutty stuff (gotta give the people what they want, right?). Negan x OC. It's my first ever published story and there will definitely be a second part, but it's still in the making and I wanted to see how this one does. So, enjoy!

A Lamb To The Slaughter • carl grimes
"Every eldest daughter is the first lamb to the slaughter" I never thought I'd meet him, a boy who cared. A boy who wanted me as much as I wanted him. Someone who cared. Someone who might just love me. If there was one thing I wanted, it was love. Not the lust kind of love. Not the forced kind of love. The 'I love you and I chose to' kind. The soft kisses at night and hand to hold when you feel scared. The shoulder to cry on. And he gave that to me. He gave me everything. ♤♡♤ I've been alone since my dad left me in an animal trap. Father of the year, right? I know not to trust anybody. That was a lesson learned a long time ago. So you know what happened when I got found by a man and his son, looking ugly, crying in a ditch? And then meet a police officer who is trying to find his family. "I have a son about your age, it'd be nice for you two to be friends" that's what Rick Grimes said to me a few days before I went with him to Atlanta to find his family. I guess I learn that some people may just be trustworthy. I might even find a family. And I might just finally feel safe, not broken. I might grow, I might break. All with the help of a certain boy in a sheriff's hat. Wanna know how all that happens? Keep reading. You're in for a wild ride. Because this is a story of death, sacrifice, zombies, sarcasm, and learning to sleep with a knife under your pillow. But most importantly, love And you might ask how I found the "L" word in the apocalypse... That's for you to find out. And for me to tell you. Bit by bit, piece by piece, little by little, and chapter by chapter. Good luck, and don't get bit before you finish the story, because this girl doesn't tell it twice.
