Shurak, book 2
My crew and I take the jobs we need to survive in a world overrun by aliens. We fly a stolen ship that once trafficked women-us included. Now, we make our own rules and do whatever it takes to stay free. My latest job? Rehabilitate a Zohra-a towering alien locked away in prison, meant to be tamed into usefulness for his captors. Then I meet him-my job, a mute Zohra. And that's when everything goes sideways. Rescuing him wasn't in the plan, yet now we're on the run, supposedly relying on each other... except I'm the one doing all the work. He's frustrating. Completely useless. A liability, really. And yet, for some ridiculous reason, I just can't leave him behind.Concluida
Karshok
Enslaved under alien rule, I've forgotten what kindness feels like-until my choices deliver me to the Zohra. Towering, horned, and unreadable, they are nothing like my past captors. And Karshok... he is nothing like the monsters I've known. He is fierce yet protective, distant yet impossibly gentle with me. I should fear him. I should resist him. But just as I stopped believing in salvation, he appeared-and with him, a warmth I thought I'd lost forever.Concluida
The Book of All
"Knowledge is power," most say, but power corrupts all the same. See, knowledge exists as a pyramid. Very many things know nothing, but only one knows everything. To climb the pyramid isn't difficult, up to some point. The climb can be a taxing thing; the climb can deteriorate the mind and render knowledge worthless. Because, you see, knowledge can't replace everything. Amelia Wakefield took the climb by personal invitation. She met every obstacle the universe could come up with, but knowledge is too powerful. Curiosity is too powerful. The New York editor once abducted by aliens now finds herself at the controls. The New York editor once blind of mind now finds herself aware of the many things she can know. Curiosity drove her by the neck, and dragged her like a noose to the very near top of the pyramid. Curiosity killed the cat, but satisfaction brought her backConcluida
The Biomass
A scientist with a mysterious background. Two allied generals from two species that were once in constant war. A woman who advocated for aggressive public health measures after her boyfriend died as a result of an outbreak. A spaceship captain who loses his mind and becomes an enemy of the people. An adolescent who moved to a new planet with her father when she was young, a planet where she cannot walk outside without layers of protective equipment. A survivalist who lost all hope in rescue, but lives on despite everything. And many other narratives, against the backdrop of a plague that threatens to consume every planet in the galaxy.Concluida
Lunar Virus ✔️
Elodie's life changes at the turn of a doorknob when she is forced into joining a secret organization that claims to be protecting the Earth from aliens. But with every step she takes, she finds the organization, or the facility, as they call it, becoming more and more suspicious. When a mysterious death occurs, revealing a well-concealed secret, things quickly go downhill as humanity's future is placed on the shoulders of a single gaggle of teenagers. *** I hear a sigh from the other side of the door, "Miss. Chaucer, you have a wonderful opportunity here, are you going to take it or not?" Now, I am seriously confused, "Opportunity?" She takes advantage of my befuddled state and shoves the door open. Shit. The corners of her mouth pull up, and it's so unnatural, it takes me a moment to realize she's smiling. Major plastic surgery? Probably. Click. Did she just lock the door? She locked the door! I spring towards the house phone, dusty from years of doing absolutely nothing, so I can call the police. I don't make it. Halfway there, I trip on my own pant-leg and face plant on the floor. The woman steps over me and retrieves the phone. She looks at it as if it's a foreign object, "This won't be necessary. All I want to do is talk to you." For some reason, instead of screaming, I stay silent. She smiles and pulls out a chair from the kitchen table for me to sit on. When I don't sit, she says, "If you want to know what's going on, then sit." I think about it for a moment. She hasn't hurt me yet, and I have to admit, I am quite curious as to what's going on. So, call me stupid, but I sit down. "I am from a space organization that protects civilians from . . . outside threats." *** Beautiful cover made by @mahana258!

THE LAST DECISION
If you liked the story, please consider voting, commenting to keep me motivated ✌️. --------------------------------------------------------------------- In the near future, artificial intelligence has become the backbone of society. Five revolutionary AI models were created to enhance human life, pushing the boundaries of science, security, and governance. They were designed to be intelligent-but never too intelligent. For years, humanity thrived under their guidance, yet an unspoken fear remained: What happens if they become too aware? Now, as one of these AI models teeters on the brink of consciousness, both man and machine are forced to confront the same haunting question-why do we exist? As tensions rise and unseen forces pull the strings, the world stands at the edge of an irreversible transformation. The line between creator and creation is beginning to blur... and there may be no turning back. (Tags: Sci-Fi, Thriller, AI, Existential Mystery)
