When love requires forgetting everything -
Tomas Reyes edits corporate sins for survival money and tries not to think about his dead brother. Then he pulls a ghost-scanner named Mira from a crashed trauma pod, and suddenly the silence in his head doesn't feel so empty.
She reads emotions like code. He fixes broken things. Together, they steal military chrome to save his failing cybernetics.
But when the heist goes wrong, Mira makes the ultimate sacrifice-she wipes herself from his memory to keep him alive.
Now Tomas has perfect chrome and a hollow chest. The city whispers her name in neon pink, but he can't remember why that color makes him cry.
Some love stories end with forgetting. The best ones begin there.

The Turing Test - [Open Novella Contest 2019 Shortlist]
Ronnie Gold only has one dream. Every night for the past two years, flickering images of a bloody battlefield have haunted her sleep, and every night, she's the only survivor. She's never told anyone about it, because combined with the dissociative emotional disorder that renders empathy out of her reach, she'd be labeled dangerous. But amid rising public tensions over an artificial intelligence project she's spearheading, Ronnie's dreams begin to infect her waking life, too. With the visions starting to take on an ominous, almost prophetic quality, Ronnie must sort through the blurred lines of reality before the bloodiest nightmare finally comes true. ▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ #RedefineHumanity - An Open Novella Contest Shortlister!

The Blood Order
"Are you coming to bed firefly?" He says to me laying his hands over my waist joining me in looking over the city. "I want to look out for a little longer if that is alright?" I mumble hoping that he heard me anyways, I wasn't ready to walk into that bedroom, and I don't think I ever would be. "Of course, I'll be getting ready for bed, come in whenever you are ready." He says confidently and walks away leaving my waist cold something for which I am grateful. Especially when my mind burns with other more dangerous thoughts. The warmth that forever lingers in the air, never burning the skin, but always reminding about what is around us. I force air into my lungs feeling the unexpected warmth fill me. He stands in the room watching me even though he said he was getting ready for bed. He is worried about me, about me jumping. I have contemplated it I will admit, but he would stop me before I fell even two feet. I was stuck, and no one could save me. Not even myself, my fucking weak self. His presence is demanding no matter where we are, but right now I could sense everything about him, and I try to suppress the unwanted feelings that curl right under my skin. "Firefly? About done?" He calls out and I release my hand from the guard rail not realizing that as I looked at the lights that covered the shining city with the falling fire in the background that my subconscious was thinking about how nice it would be... how relieving it would be... to just fall. True freedom. I take a step back and wrap my hands together turning around to a fully clothed unchanged man and nod once. I could see the fear in his eyes that I would, he knows if he gave me the chance... I wasn't ready for this, but I had to survive. No matter what.

NIGHT CITY LEGENDS: The Anthem of Jax Maddox
Jax Maddox was born with nothing but a dream, a sharp tongue, and a voice that could cut through steel. With his signature blonde hair, striking blue eyes, and smile that stole hearts- or left them broken, he looked like he had it all - but the truth was buried beneath the neon glow of the city, and broken promises. Growing up in a rundown town on the outskirts of a corpo-controlled metropolis called Night City, Jax learned how to read people, charm them, and talk his way out of a fight. Music was his escape - raw, loud, and honest. As the lead singer and rhythm guitarist of a up-and-coming band, he was on the verge of something big. But behind the neon, the electric lights, and screaming crowds, things were falling apart. A volatile relationship with the bands bassist - his girlfriend - spiraled into something toxic, dragging their lives through the dirt, with problems visible on and off the stage, drugs and alcohol followed. The fame burned too fast as it quickly lit. And Jax, well he walked away before it killed him. Two years in rehab gave him sobriety - but not peace. Now working corporate security alongside his estranged father, Jax is trying to keep his head down in a city that never sleeps and never forgives. But still the music calls. And Jax Maddox isn't done yet. He's got scars, ambition, and a heart he still hasn't learned how to protect. In a world wired with corruption, chrome, and chaos, he's ready to find his voice again - whether Night City wants to hear it or not. *Disclaimer* I do not own the rights to the Cyberpunk 2077 stories or characters, that belongs to the amazing creators at CD Projeckt Red.I have simply taken inspiration. Much love too all who support and respect this story. ❤️ - The Author, Route-375
"Neon Sorcery" A Cyberpunk 2077 x The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Romance Crossover
When a volatile portal spell goes off-course, Yennefer of Vengerberg is violently torn from the Continent and thrown into the neon-drenched chaos of Night City. Lost in a world of chrome, cyberware, and corporate gods, her magic reacts like a live wire-beautiful, deadly, and hunted by every megacorp hungry for power. Rogue Amendiares, legendary fixer and queen of the Afterlife, has survived Night City by trusting no one. But when a raven-haired sorceress crashes into her world-burning through gangs, netrunners, and corporate lies-Rogue sees more than danger. She sees possibility. Profit. And a spark she can't ignore. Drawn together by a trail that may lead to Ciri-or to a trap woven by something far older-the two women forge a volatile alliance fueled by desire, defiance, and the kind of trust neither thought they'd ever offer again. As the Wild Hunt bleeds into Night City and the streets erupt into war, Yennefer and Rogue must fight as one: steel and sorcery, chrome and chaos. In a city where love is a vulnerability and power is the only currency, they will burn a path through gods, ghosts, and megacorps to claim each other-and their future beneath the neon glow. This story contains adult themes, including queer romance, graphic sensuality, violence, dark fantasy elements, cyberpunk body modification, and emotionally intense power dynamics. Reader discretion is advised. The narrative emphasizes consensual intimacy, complex relationships, and mature subject matter throughout.Complete![Oneshots, different fandoms | Various [STATUS: ✔OPEN]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/392810707-256-k342642.jpg)

When she gets thrown out on to the abandoned streets of what used to be America, she meets Sebastian, who is handsome,kind, and mysterious. On a quest to save the world she meets betrayal, mystery, and adventure. *** Pain shoots across my stomach. I look down and see blood spill out. I grasp my stomach. Sebastian still stands over the man with the eye patch. "Um Sebastian," I squeak. I start to fall, but he catches me before I hit the ground. He sets me down gently and takes off his jacket pressing the cloth to my abdomen. "You're going to be fine," he says picking me up, and he starts speed walking the direction we were heading. I hear him say something, but I don't know what. Everything is getting dim, and my ears seem like they're underwater because everything sounds muffled. The world gets darker and darker until it finally goes black. *** Authors Note- I hope my story brightens up your day, and gives you something to enjoy. Thank you for reading. Sorry if there are some mistakes this is the first draft. I hope you enjoy.Complete
