Europa
In order to embark on a mission to discover alien life on the icy moon of Jupiter Maria must leave her life on Earth behind, including her father and her seven-year-old son Diego. She thought the hardest part of the mission would be saying goodbye, but little does she know what awaits her and her crew on Europa, an environment that has never been explored from the surface until this mission. Perhaps alien life was never meant to be explored by humans... Will she fulfill her promise to her father and son to make it home alive, or will she fail to make good on that promise like her mother did when she was a little girl? Note: This story was written during a challenge to write an entire book in one week! I vlogged the whole process on my YouTube channel (Patrick Procrastinates Writing), my Instagram (@memesforwriters), and my TikTok (@memes4writers). Be sure to check those out if you want a behind the scenes on my writing process behind this project! I will continue to work on Europa, but I will not update this version as it shows what I was able to accomplish in the seven days of the challenge. Please let me know what you think (don't be afraid to be mean).Complete

Valiantly Yours,
Venus Williams had everything most could only dream of-a life of privilege, sophistication, and the kind of effortless success that came from never having to struggle. At Burbington High, she was untouchable, a student of high society, reigning supreme as Student President. Politics, manipulation, and control were her weapons, and she wielded them with precision. But there was one thing she had never known: the true depth of love or pleasure, and, perhaps more crucially, the harsh sting of pain. Her life was a perfect, curated world, until she found herself stuck in the most unlikely of places-a tight corner, humiliated and sneered at by none other than Frank Harris, the school's janitor. The encounter was unexpected, and frankly, beneath her. Venus wasn't used to being challenged, let alone being taken down a peg by someone like him. Frank Harris had seen the worst life had to offer. Born from the grittiest circumstances, he had learned early that good things never lasted, that hope was a fleeting thing. He had long since stopped believing in anything but his own resilience. Yet, he couldn't seem to avoid Venus. She was always there, in the most compromising of situations, and every time they crossed paths, they couldn't help but clash. Their exchanges were filled with biting sarcasm, insults, and a constant, unsaid tension. They bickered, they degraded each other, and still, they circled around one another, two forces that couldn't help but collide. Neither was willing to admit it, but something about the constant pull between them was undeniable. The question remained: How long would they keep circling? And when the inevitable finally happened, would they crash, or would something deeper, darker, rise between them-something neither of them was prepared to face?

Children of the Sun- Aria's Awakening
They say the sun never hides-but what if its greatest secret was hidden among us? Aria was born of a forbidden union-fire and fang. The Sun's heiress and the Moon's fiercest werewolf blood collided to create something the supernatural world had never seen. Hours after her birth, betrayal ignited a war, and Aria was cast into the human world-without her powers, her past, or her name. Now eighteen, she's fiery, reckless, and burning with a rage she can't explain. Until the rip opens. Drawn back into a world she never knew, Aria is hunted by vampires, coveted by sirens, and feared by her own kind. But when her true powers awaken and a dangerously loyal werewolf claims her as his mate, Aria must decide: Will she become the weapon they all fear-or the queen no one saw coming? A saga of fire, blood, and destiny begins. Supernatural fantasy meets royal drama with a fierce heroine at the center of it all. This is not the myth you've heard. This is the truth they tried to burn.Complete
Cosmic
In an alternate timeline, the human race found a way to create superpowers. By extracting energy from stars and inserting that energy into humans, 'powers' were created. Powers allowed humans to gain unnatural abilities such as flight, invisibility, super strength or in other words, superpowers. Of course, with the introduction of something so revolutionary, people rose up in the hundreds of thousands in an event known as the Great Rebellion. The insurgents banded together under a single banner and became collectively known as the Shadow, marking the beginning of the Cosmic Wars. Out of the darkness, the Gazers were born. Using what remained of the power technology, the Gazers singlehandedly perished the evil and ended the conflict. However, there was a price to pay. Powers put a toll on the human body and had serious mental and physical repercussions. The solution was to recruit children from the age of 13 to 18 and train them so their bodies would adapt to their powers, eventually becoming immune to all negative side effects. The end of the Cosmic Wars brought forth a new age of peace and prosperity that the world had never seen before. However, the long reign of the Gazers has already begun to crumble, cracks showing up within the very thread of society. Their rule will not last for much longer. The Shadow will rise once again. Or in other words, my unintentional and accidental ripoff of My Hero Academia :/ Blurb is a work in progressComplete

Panic spreads. Without Venus, the world begins to fracture: wars erupt, compassion fades, and love itself seems to weaken. For Aria Calviera, a 17-year-old girl who has always felt connected to the planet, the disappearance is not just an astronomical mystery-it's a message. Her grandmother whispers of a curse bound to their bloodline. Strange dreams haunt her. A glowing mark burns into her skin, sealing a destiny she never asked for. As humanity trembles on the brink of despair, Aria is thrust into a journey across worlds-a journey that will reveal the hidden life of Venus, the secrets of her family, and the darkness threatening to consume Earth itself. To bring back Venus, Aria must risk everything... even if it means vanishing herself.Complete
