Rewind: The Third Son (Book 1 & 2) by AlleyB255

In a not-so-distant future, three-quarters of the world's population have evolved into superior beings called "the dominants", endowed with extraordinary abilities such as telepathy, telekinesis, teleportation, and more. However, these advanced humans are incapable of killing others. Should they attempt to do so, their highly developed nervous systems release a hormone that induces paralyzing pain throughout their bodies. The remaining quarter of the population, possessing no supernatural powers and no such killing barrier, are derogatorily referred to as "the recessives". One of the few jobs available to "the recessives" is that of executioner, as they can end lives without suffering any repercussions. They are not only scorned for their lack of physical prowess but also feared for their unrestrained capacity for murder. In the prestigious Lanes family, the father is a powerful politician, the mother a successful businesswoman, the eldest son a reliable doctor, the second son a popular police officer, and the youngest daughter a famous, talented idol. For years, no one knew they had a third son. He is Gabriel Lanes, the only "recessive" in the family. After seven years in prison for committing murder, Gabriel is determined to start anew in an unwelcoming world with a huge disadvantage. Can Gabriel catch a break, or will his dark past catch up with him?

The League by Kelsea_Dove

{Original Story} Phoenix Anderson wants nothing to do with the League of Superheroes. He's not sure why he's avoiding the good guys, but then again, there's a lot he doesn't know. Like the fact that his family history is a lot stranger than it seems. After getting some unexpected news, he realizes that he's more involved than he thought he would be. Events start unfolding one after another, including a house up in flames, a heist, a dangerous city, and a plot that spells trouble for everyone. Welcome to a world of superheroes and villains, of sinister twists and turns, of family who don't know they're family, and of undefined heroism.

The Life of a Villain by Tryparatest

Aren't you ever tired of the same old super hero story? The hero is cool looking with bulging muscles, and always wins. Like, always. Even if the situation is dire and it all seems lost. All the sudden, freaking deus ex machina. And the villain is either some super nerd, or a loser. Do you have any idea how stereotypical that is? Hero=jock/bully. Villain=nerd/loser. But not this time. This is a new story. The Life of a Villain. Part 1: This is a story about Leonardo Sutton a.k.a Knifeslinger, an 18 year old villain out for revenge for his family's death. He goes undercover at Ravenswood Academy where he meets new friends and old friends, and an evil plot that could shake the world. Part 2: Life was finally starting to settle down(ish) in the few days of freedom, but of course normality can't be something for ex-villain Leonardo Sutton. When an alien invasion is imminent, Leo must be Knifeslinger again, and work with Team Amazing to stop the Disastrous Nuclear Anthropoid and his planet of people. #1 in #supervillain 7/5/2020

Hero Types by GreenPastels

Kit Folly was just another teenage girl... ...and she still is. To be perfectly clear, she still deals with the ups and downs of her failing grades, less-than-supersonic social life, dumb teenage boys, and the nearing void of life after high school. She just happens to be juggling her superhero side-gig at the same time. A mission like any other fails to go as planned, and Kit and her team find themselves confronted with a mysterious new villain with a new dangerous power that threatens all of superhero-kind. In the wake of an unexpected loss, they have to compensate with a new arrival to the crew--one whom Kit would have preferred to never see again. To top it all off, there's family health problems, daddy issues, bullying, a lot of homework, and a burgeoning romance with an old enemy. Well--if you want to call it that. Warning: Sex, Drugs, and Rock'n'Roll (Also: strong language)

Superhero Material by thebobbyrocha

Emerson Rogers liked to think of himself as an ordinary teenager. After all, he had no reason to believe otherwise. He went to an upstanding private school with the rest of his friends, was a straight-A student, had no disciplinary issues, and was well-liked according to his classmates and teachers. If anyone were to take a glance at him, they would assume that he was just another carefree rich kid with no problems in his life to worry about. Unless you consider the fact that his evening plans included putting on a blue super suit and speeding through the streets as a crime-fighting superhero. Okay, so maybe his life wasn't as ordinary and carefree as he liked to portray it. With Emerson starting his senior year of high school, things have started to become a bit more tricky than he would've preferred. Defending Jefferson City and maintaining a normal school life as a cover can be hard, but throw in his best friend getting closer to the truth about his alter-ego's identity and a mysterious villain working from the shadows who always seems to be two steps ahead, living a double life is going to be his biggest challenge yet. Especially when new villains start crawling out of the woodwork, thirsty for a fight, and his old villains return stronger, angrier, and looking to settle a score. As Emerson starts to uncover the truth behind where all these villains are coming from, he finds that not everything is what it seems on the surface. And that he and this mysterious villain have a stronger connection than he originally thought.

Super•Villainous by WhatTomfoolery

"I've been looking for you." There was an unexpected rasp to his voice, a hint of desperation. He stretched out one hand, as if to brush it across my cheek, or perhaps wrap it around my throat. Oddly enough, I didn't know which option frightened me more. *+*+*+* Lily Burdett has an unfortunate gift for getting herself into tricky situations, but her luck is especially bleak the day she finds herself in the destructive path of the city's premier supervillain. When he grabs ahold of her, she reacts without thinking and stabs him twice in the shoulder, only surviving the encounter thanks to a nearby hero who intervenes on her behalf.

Outlaw | 18+ by devilseyez

In a world where power is the ultimate weapon and betrayal is currency, the line between hero and villain doesn't just blur... it shatters. She's the woman you're warned about. She's selfish and deadly. The first to smile in your face and twist the knife in your back. He's the man everyone fears. He's cold-blooded and dark. The embodiment of vengeance in an expensive suit. They should have destroyed each other. But instead, they made a deal. She's playing a game with no rules. He's rewriting them as he goes. Together, they're a storm no one can outrun. Loyalties are broken, alliances burned, and blood spills in their wake. But when the smoke clears, only one thing remains certain, trusting the devil doesn't make you safe... It makes you just like him. She's the sinner. He's the executioner. And in their obsession, no one gets out alive. Some stories don't have heroes. Some don't need them. This is theirs. Outlaw - where survival isn't enough, and obsession is the only law.

Resisted Attraction by anniejo05

Everything in me felt drawn to him. He was water, and I was lightning. And when we worked together, it came as a great shock. -.-.- "I don't trust you." "And I don't trust you, but we have to work together if we want to live." -.-.- Rose (or Rosabelle) Parker is working for an association to bring villains to justice. As a high ranking super, that should be her job right? But, what happens when the association isn't all that it seems, and a greater evil is upon her? Maybe her arch enemy had it right all along? -.-.- Notice: This is my personal work. Do not copy or steal, please. Also this a first draft, so I understand there will be mistakes. Please politely let me know if there is something I should fix. Please enjoy the story!
