Some doors should never be opened.
When Axiom and Kairos step through a portal into a ruined world beneath a fractured sky, they believe they are trespassers. But the further they stray into the desolate unknown, the more the planet seems to know them-especially Kairos.
Whispers echo his name.
Symbols from his past scar the stones.
And the voice of the Archon waits.
As the shadows close in, Axiom begins to wonder-
Did they find this world?
Or the world found them, finally!
Author's note: Will Axiom be saved?

The Island
"This is The Island, a prison designed for minors like me- too young to be executed, too old to be reformed, and too much of a stain on humanity to let exist. It was 'the answer' to the growing crime rate resulting from a world that was falling apart. The details evade me, but there is one thing I know. The water doesn't seem as scary as it did before." When Jordyn wakes up in the middle of a tropical forest in the mouth of a cat too big to be real, she decides this isn't how she wants to die. The Island has other plans, though. It was designed to kill her, and it will bring out every gun in the arsenal to do so. Her life becomes a game of survival from the mutant and venomous animals, severe temperature changes, and impossible weather scenarios that exist in this government manufactured prison. The twist? She has no idea who she is, where she came from, or why she committed first-degree arson. In this mixture of "The Hunger Games" and "Maze Runner", Jordyn has to unravel the truth before nature kills her- or die not knowing.

Maroli Tango
Nobody expects the Sasquatch Intervention! A Vedic text tells of ancient gods who cast a shadow upon the Earth, shielding humanity from an angry sun. Or, as history books will soon report: when Sol last went micro-nova, Mercury, Venus, and the Anye migration fleet were positioned in eclipse, the latter on purpose. Earth was scorched - but not destroyed. The event is cyclical, coming around again, and fortunately, Vidura's furry pilgrims are still living in the neighborhood. Unfortunately, the fleet is in mothballs. The planets will not be lining up to help. Two million light years away on the planet of the Unseen, a potentially hostile race of bird-folk have demonstrated the ability to get here from there. The natives will have to dig in, hands on Anye technology, with President of the United States Carmen Benequista leading Earth's ruling elite into an age of service to humanity. It's a dicey proposition, at best. Meanwhile, Carmen - sixty, widowed - is in late-life crisis. She has a suitor; human, Filipino/American, 15 years younger, recently associated with the Anye Space Mafia. Good for her, maybe. Entering stage left, the elevated maroli. Labor appliances of the nightmare variety. Egg-shaped grav-lift chassis. Bio-engineered tentacles strong enough to pull your arms off. Self-aware not by design - possessed perhaps by spirits of the dead. And who knows what the maroli are up to? Something wholesome, we hope. Will Earth be saved, only to perish in a war between cosmic rivals? Has the President found true love? Is it rude to attend a party with fighting drones in tow? Action, intrigue, space soap opera - A genre-bending tale of life, love, and uncertain outcomes. ᶲᶲᶲᶲᶲᶲᶲᶲ Click on my website URL, listed on the Wattpad author's profile, for more information.

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐌𝐢𝐫𝐫𝐨𝐫 𝐁𝐞𝐭𝐰𝐞𝐞𝐧 𝐔𝐬
Aria thought the forest was her escape until it pulled her into a world she wasn't meant to see. One touch of an ancient mirror, and she's torn from everything she knows, landing in a realm where shadows breathe, torches burn blue, and danger lurks behind every corner. Kim is the Warden of the Veil. A cold, unyielding guardian tasked with protecting the portal between worlds. And now, this human girl has crossed it. She's reckless. He's ruthless. And yet, fate has other plans. In a world where magic is deadly, secrets are currency, and one wrong step could mean death, Aria must navigate a realm she doesn't understand...all while facing a man she can't ignore. Will she survive the Mirror Gate, or will the secrets behind the glass consume them both? ━━✦❘༻༺❘✦━━ Aria ran harder. Legs burning. Breath slicing through her lungs. She turned a corner, tripped on her nightgown and pitched forward. A hand caught her. An arm wrapped around her waist and hauled her back against a body that felt impossibly solid and impossibly warm. She gasped as his breath touched her neck, cold enough to raise every hair on her skin and the cool edge of his metal mask grazed her neck. "If something else had been chasing you, little Wanderer," he whispered, "you would already be dead." Fear hit first. Fascination followed like a betrayal. "I hate this," she breathed. "You should." he said, and his grip tightened once before he let her go.
