Military Girl by bllkglazer336

She used to believe in fairytales-the kind of love that felt like fate, like something out of the romance novels she hid under her bed as a kid. But reality hit hard, and instead of finding her prince, she found herself in the military, where discipline and duty leave little room for daydreams. Between grueling training, impossible expectations, and the weight of responsibility, love was supposed to be the last thing on her mind. But when feelings start to creep in-unexpected, inconvenient, and all too real-she's faced with the hardest battle yet: balancing the life she chose with the love she's always wanted. Because in her world, there are no fairytale endings. Or are there?

Code Zero by Justan0therwrit3r

The world runs on power-and those who wield it are ranked, trained, and controlled. Within the walls of Aurenhelm Academy, hierarchy rules every aspect of life. Reds command, Blues excel, Purples endure, and Greens obey. But when an unidentified Manifested appears outside the capital-a boy with no recorded limit and no measurable signature-the system begins to unravel. The government calls him Code Zero. His power defies every known classification. His existence threatens the balance the Academy was built to maintain. Team Vale, led by the lowest-ranked leader in Academy history, is chosen to assist the authorities in locating and containing Code Zero. To the students, it sounds like an impossible assignment. To the government, it's expendable field data. What begins as a retrieval mission quickly spirals into something far greater: a race to understand whether Code Zero is a weapon, a warning, or the next stage of evolution itself.

Consensus: Part 1 - Citizen by JasonTesar

In a society where morals are determined by a public opinion system, and social rating is the currency, truth can be a dangerous notion. Sixteen-year-old Rena has few memories of her childhood before adoption. The voice of the man who raised her. A forest teeming with wildlife. Mountains reaching up to a blue sky. The problem-they're not real. Such things don't exist in Esh, a self-governed metropolis shielded from the harsh environment by a transparent canopy. And beyond the city lie only the Barrens, an endless wasteland of fog and freezing rain. When Rena's violent instincts save the lives of her friends, her delusional past begins disrupting her prospects for the future. To find the source of her impulses, she'll have to sort through the fragments in her mind. What awaits is a connection between her true identity, the city's forgotten history, and the secret war being waged beneath the surface of her polite society.

Soon Jordan finds her own voice counted among these and she will be forced to make a decision to stand for truth or bend to lies. Humanity will be led toward division and chaos through influence and control. Jordan's peers, blinded by deception, will desire nothing more than compliance.

The Smallest Mutant by Trinity_Avenger

After being forced into solitary confinement by Dr. Reyes, Dani Moonstar never expected to hear Illyana Rasputin, the toughest and most guarded of the group, whispering through the vents in a voice as small and broken as a child's. What begins as a terrifying night filled with nightmares and visions slowly unravels a truth Dani didn't see coming: beneath Illyana's blade, armor, and sharp tongue... is a little girl still hiding from monsters. Literally. Inspired by The New Mutants film, this story explores the cracks beneath the surface-trauma, trust, and the strange safety of regression. As Dani's powers grow stronger and more unpredictable, she's pulled deeper into Illyana's hidden world: a place of stuffies, whispered fears, and a dragon named Lockheed who guards more than anyone realizes. But in a facility built on secrets, softness is dangerous... and healing might cost more than either girl is ready to give. A New Mutants age regression reimagining full of shadows, softness, and the kind of bond only two broken girls could build.

Cheeky in Love (Completed) by VixnSkye

Fanny, a young lesbian woman searches for her place in the world and it takes her somewhere she never thought she could ever belong. Despite being headstrong, rebellious, free-spirited, and a little arrogant - so everything that a soldier shouldn't be - she finds herself in the military, but the hardest part comes only after that. Before she could even realize, someone steals her heart, but unfortunately for her, that someone is her straight best friend who lives in a happy relationship. She has never truly been in love before, and this particular case would be challenging even for someone much more emotionally prepared than her. She has to grow up somehow to handle the unrequited love as an adult should, it's just not clear how she will do that. A/N.: This is my first English novel experiment, so there will be mistakes in it, please forgive me for them. Also feel free to point them out, as I'd be very grateful for any constructive criticism. Enjoy the story :)
