A dying planet.
A ship built as a tomb.
Five souls carrying the weight of extinction.

When Earth collapses into storms of rust and silence, humanity's last fragments take flight aboard Leviathan-a colossal ark forged from desperation and grief. They call themselves the Redemption Team. But beyond the poisoned sky, there is no promised land waiting. Only the void. And the void has teeth.

Kael, the reluctant commander, swore to carry humanity's last hope into the stars. Elara, bound by love and defiance, holds him steady when the silence becomes unbearable. Rourke trusts only in steel and reflexes, a soldier who knows survival is never noble. Jun, the code-weaver, is haunted by the ghosts of systems long dead. And Inaya-whose prayers are whispers to a universe that does not answer-mourns not just a world, but the idea of mercy itself.

Their mission: to reach the hidden outpost on Asteroid 998X, a sanctuary buried in stone.
Their reality: the rock is not a sanctuary. It breathes. It waits. And it pulls them closer.

Leviathan is no longer just a ship. It is a cradle of fear, a coffin adrift, and a question carved in starlight:
Are they the saviors of humankind... or the final curse it leaves behind?

The sky opens.
The void listens.
And hope becomes the deadliest trap of all.

Alien from the past. Mate for the future. by CloudDestinyAtlas

✨ Book 3 from Extraterrestrial Encounter ✨ -*- They always told me I belonged to the sky. Not because I was special or different, but because ever since I was a child, I would spend hours staring at the stars, searching for answers no adult seemed willing to give me. My name is Selen. I'm nineteen years old, and I work as a research assistant in one of the oldest observatories in the colony. I live among star maps, coordinates, and telescopes. But sometimes, when the world falls asleep and I'm left alone beneath the vault of the sky, I feel... something. An invisible gaze, warm and distant. As if the stars weren't the only ones watching me. I don't remember much from when I was a child. Just fragments: a distant roar, strong hands lifting me from the mud... Blue eyes that didn't belong to any human being. They told me I was in danger, and that someone saved me. But no one ever wanted to tell me who. And yet, tonight... as the sky opens above me and the forest whispers ancient words, I have the strange feeling I'm not alone. Maybe this time it will save me and take me to safety. -*- [ I'm still trying to figure out if this is going to be a long story or just a glimpse into how things have settled down in the near future. Maybe you can help me. If you have any idea leave a comment. ]🤔🤷 🔴 As usual beware! This story will be marked as Adult story. Strong language, fighting, blood, death and of course consensual sex scenes and more. 🔴🔞

White Crystal Butterflies | Wattys 2021 Shortlist | ✔ by SmokeAndOranges

❖ Interstellar pilot and ex-adventurer Alex Gallegos must keep their team safe on an icy moon as sentient storms threaten to repeat the tragedy that ended their last career. ❖ Everyone in the United Inhabited Solar Systems (for some reason, UIS for short) knows to stay away from Mahaha. The icy moon is notorious for failed probe landings and research missions that end in tragedy: the only people to ever venture to its surface needed rescuing after just two weeks. When a prestigious research group decides they want a turn, they ask Alex Gallegos to lead the team. Perfectly qualified and haunted by their past, Alex accepts, hoping to make up for old mistakes and get just a little further from the earth they've left behind. Two months into the seven-month mission, the team is struggling with discontent, damaged equipment, and blizzards acting less and less like normal weather. As Mahaha moves out of range of help and the storms take on a more malicious character, Alex must face the one foe they could never have prepared for. Mahaha may or may not be alive. ❖❖❖ Complete. Wattys 2021 Shortlister. Standalone sequel (Rocks Can Dance) coming in 2023. Comments and critiques are both welcome and appreciated. I write characters from many different backgrounds, with many different experiences. If you share those traits and find that I have misrepresented anything, please let me know! I am feedback-friendly and here to learn :)

GRAVITATIONALLY YOURS by celestiallover_

"Some fall in love. Others collide like stars." I didn't ask to be protected. I didn't even know who kept doing it. But every time the universe threatens to tear me apart... he moves. A silent force. A storm I've never seen. A gravity I was never meant to feel. And the worst part? I don't even know his name. But my soul recognizes the weight of him. This isn't just a story about planets. It's about pull. And what happens when you become the center of someone else's universe- before you even realize you've been orbiting them too. ⸻ ✨ Slow-burn romance ✨ Celestial obsession ✨ Poetic tension + emotional POVs ✨ Mysterious protector energy ⚠️ Expect Magnetic tension, Secrets in starlights and a love story written in stardust. For hearts that ache in silence. And collide anyway.

My Dying Star by toxicbait_nswitch

"Sure, supernovas are the result of a dying star's last breath, but I don't like to think of it as death and just death. I like to think of it as... recreation, the birth of something new.

Areston thinks he can shield me from his past, but what he doesn't realize is I'm already part of it. The darkness that haunts him? It's the same one that's been chasing me for years. I've given him everything-my body, my heart, my soul-and still, it's not enough. He craves control, and needs to protect me, but I'm done playing the delicate wife. I'm done being kept in the dark while he fights battles that belong to both of us. He's mine, and I'll burn the world down to keep him just like he would do for me. But our secrets are dangerous. Our demons are circling, and if we're not careful, they'll tear us apart from the inside. We've been through hell together, but this is different. This time, it's not about surviving-it's about whether we can trust each other enough to fight for what we have. He's the love of my life, the man I'm addicted to, but in the end, will our love be enough to save us from ourselves? This explosive finale to The Scent Trilogy-where passion, obsession, and unrelenting loyalty collide, and no one walks away unscathed.

Akropolis by hcedwards

"Any thought you ever had; memories, desires, your fears and your dreams, are all recorded and stored safely in the Quantum Cloud for your eventual revival. Death is now merely a transitional period to the next stage of your existence. As a QUBIT (quantum processing biosynthetic), you will experience a life free of disease and suffering. Time is no longer your enemy. Regret is a thing of the past. Each new day brings the promise of endless possibilities, spent in the pursuit of your own happiness, guiltless with the knowledge that there are no longer earthly constraints to inhibit you. This is the life you have always wanted. Welcome to your new beginning..." Akropolis is a city at the end of times, a sanctuary where the brightest and best have been housed since the last Great War. A genome defect has afflicted the majority of the population and scientists are desperate to find a cure. In the meantime, man has found his own salvation in the form of the QUBIT (quantum processing bio-synthetic), an android that is capable of prolonging life almost indefinitely, and yet what makes them human in the first place has been lost in the transition. The ruling council believes that salvation is nigh, but whether that hope arrives in time is questionable. The city's future depends upon the actions of a few individuals, all of whom are struggling with their own mortality. Quentin is the boy who dreams of death. Mia is the tortured soul. Trey is the soldier that defines duty. Misao is the future of the ruling council. Claire is the girl with a secret that will rock the foundations of their entire civilization. Unbeknownst to them, the entire fate of Akropolis lies in their hands. Either humanity will find a way to survive or it will sink slowly into the sea of extinction.
