Border Patrol Agent Cal Tucker has lived off of instinct for as long as he could remember. But when he accurately predicts increasingly unlikely events by "following his gut", he can tell that something is about to change. He works all day catching illegal immigrants who work to ruin the lives of others, but he harbors a deeply buried secret: he may catch bad guys during the day, but at night he helps those who simply want a fresh start. Even those who are by the country's definition "illegal aliens". Now enemies on both sides of the law are hunting him, and they aren't giving up until they get what they want.

Crisis of Temptation
"What, you don't like playing with fire?" I ask, raising my eyebrow. He looks away, smirking and shaking his head. He pushes his tongue against the side of his cheek. He leans down to my ear. "You don't know what playing with fire is," He whispers. His lips touch my earlobe as he says those words, low and smoky. My breath hitches as I feel his fingertips lightly drag up the back of my thigh; stopping at the hem of my skirt. He backs up, smirking at my reaction. He spins around and walks away.

Tell Me It's Forever
"Hey," I get her attention as I sit closer to her. "We're doing everything we can to find this mob okay? You'll be out of this situation in no time." "And what if something bad happens," she looks at me wide eyed with those beautiful eyes of hers. Can never forget the colour. Hazel with little bits of green inside them. "Nothing bad will happen." "But something bad always happens to me. I have such a bad feeling about all this and my gut never lies to me," her voice cracks at the end. "It's life and death. Nothing ever good comes out of that." A lone tear slides down her cheek and she shuts both her eyes tightly, her palms squeezing the fuck out of her thighs. I quickly grab one of them so she can stop hurting herself and put pressure on my palm instead. "I need you to stop crying and go rest now. I think that would be best for you." "But..." "No buts. I know you're a strong independent woman that really needs to solve this and find out what's going on but stop okay? I'll take care of it." "Pinky swear?" She sniffs as she holds out her little finger and I find myself smiling at her. "Of course." I wrap my finger with hers.

Beneath the surface, the planet's power flows through massive rootlines - a semi-organic energy network left behind by something ancient and non-human. Seventeen-year-old Calidae Crey was never supposed to matter. He's a neurodivergent rootline engineer - observant, withdrawn, always chasing patterns no one else sees. But something happened to him in the labs seven years ago. Something dangerous. Something still not fully understood. Now the rootlines are surging again. Now the past is waking up. And the truth is catching up to him. Cal isn't alone. There's a restless tinkerer with grease under his nails and loyalty in his bones. A scrappy girl who won't let anyone she loves be taken without a fight. And a young survivor of a special ops mission that went horribly wrong, who carries his scars along with a deep, unspoken love for Cal's sister - who has gone missing. Together, they'll face a world shaped by extremes and forged by alien hands. A slow-burn sci-fi thriller about found family, trauma, survival, and the secrets that won't stay buried forever. The world is cracking open. And one boy is the epicenter. ◇◇◇ ⚠️ Content warning: This story contains descriptions of injury, medical trauma, and emotional distress.

The Core: The First Guest
❖2021 Watty Awards Shortlist❖ Kevin was just a normal 10 year old kid until he saw a woman vanish right before his eyes. This made Kevin just a little bit different. He paid more attention to people now. Little did he know that this little difference would kill him the next time he encountered another alien about to return home. It would tear him apart, cell by cell, until he was unmade. His mind being transported away. --- So distantly far away there is a race that advanced to the point where they built dyson spheres to house their civilizations. In their continual expansion, they seeded galaxies with pods and connection satellites. Over time they upgraded their dyson spheres into matryoshka brain Cores. Imagine a computer powered by a star. Citizens of Cores no longer age once they upload their minds into the virtual living system of the Core. While they didn't age, most still choose to cycle through life and death though at a different scale of time compared to our lives. Citizens can visit other planets and live there as if they were on a "vacation". Mercury is Earth's hub connected to the closest Core and Earth is a remote vacation spot for wealthy citizens. When the main character was 10 he witnessed a citizen returning to the Core. The story continues 10 odd years later when he again witnesses a similar situation unfolding and manages to touch the person returning to the Core. This causes him to be swept up in the transfer as well and for his mind to join as a "Guest" user of the Core. As a Guest he has limited powers, a starting balance of zero cr or Citizen credits, and no idea how he can get home. He is the first human to ever become a Guest of a Core. Where money itself is the highest form of their science.Complete

The Angriest Angel
Chase Madison had a tough childhood. Raised in a broken home and struggling with undiagnosed ADHD, he was constantly in trouble, injured, and outcast. Life didn't get much better as an adult. Jailed, abandoned by family and friends, and fired from his job, Chase walks through life looking for the next bad thing to happen. But then he meets the Caelans. They look like and act like us, but they are not from this planet. They've lived here for years, posing as people of Earth, hiding in plain sight by using a mental ability called 'psy' to influence us-purely for the purpose of maintaining their secret identity. They have always been completely and utterly peaceful. Their planet had conquered and eradicated anger long ago. Something has suddenly changed, however, within the Caelan people here on Earth. After more than 50 years of peace, anger has infected some of them-like a sickness-forcing all 939 to be quarantined here. And when they meet Chase, they discover something even more disturbing-their psy does not work on him. His immunity to their power presents a serious security risk. On the surface, there doesn't seem to be anything special about him-other than having ADHD. Could this unusual condition be responsible for such a serious breach of Caelan security? Join Chase on the adventure of his life as he makes wondrous discoveries, improbable friends, terrifying enemies, finds unexpected love, and begins to believe in himself-for the first time in his life.Complete
