Some endings free you.
Some endings follow you.
This one waits in the dark and breathes with you until you come back.
They said walking away was survival.

A Smile before Rot
Six hearts. One wasteland. And the dead remember everything. The world ended, but the living kept loving. In a land where the rot has a mind of its own, six broken souls claw their way toward hope - or toward each other's destruction. A butcher who forgot how to feel. A bystander who never learned how. A prophet who mistakes obsession for truth. A liar who can't outrun her past. A smiler with blood on her tongue. A scavenger with a desperate heart. The dead are changing. Faster. Smarter. Watching. And in the red hush before the final collapse, something old is waiting to be born.

Post Plague Kidnapping - Published!
It's been five years since the plague struck. Leah knows there are other survivors, but she's avoiding them. She is doing just fine on her own. Surviving after everyone she knew died has made her physically strong and honed her intelligence, but she is emotionally devastated. There is nothing to fear if you don't make yourself emotionally vulnerable. James has spent the last five years helping to build up a colony of survivors. He believes in the small town they have populated and its mission to save humanity from extinction. He and his small team of men find scattered people and bring them in. Over the last two centuries, women have fought for and won more and more rights, gaining equality with men. Society, law, and technology bolsters and enforces these rights, but now they are gone. Women's equality with men is over. There are just too few of them. They aren't lesser but greater, more important, more valuable than men. Men are expendable. Men can stay outside alone if they like, but all women must be brought inside the safety of the Colony and properly taken care of. James has been searching the area Leah lives in. Her time of solitude is up. Leah sparks something in James he's never felt before. He's not letting this one get away, certainly not twice. Warning: Contains sex, some violence, occasional foul language, and adult issues.

Can I Die Now?
Noah Ardyn is only eleven - too young to understand why people leave, too old to believe that love can save anyone. His father vanished before his first birthday, and his mother became his entire world - a fragile light in an ever-darkening sky. For a while, that was enough. Until the day the world began to decay. A new virus swept across the earth, twisting everything it touched - minds, bodies, and hearts. The streets grew silent. The air grew colder. And one by one, everyone Noah loved began to disappear, leaving him with only echoes of their voices and memories that refused to fade. But the virus wasn't the only thing eating away at humanity. It was grief. It was fear. It was the unbearable weight of surviving. Noah doesn't want revenge. He doesn't want to be saved. He just wants it all to stop - the pain that burns through his soul, the loneliness that tears him apart from the inside, the cruel silence that answers every time he calls for help. And so, as the world collapses around him, he whispers the only words that still make sense: "Can I die now?" Can I Die Now? is not a story about giving up. It's a story about what happens when a heart feels too much - and the quiet, shattered beauty that exists in pain itself.
What Remains
You've been alone so long, you've forgotten how to be anything else. Cities have become graveyards, and hope is just another thing that gets you killed. You survive by hiding, stealing, and trusting no one-until Dabi chains you to his wrist and makes your fate his own. As you navigate the ruins together, every moment is a fight-for survival, for dominance, for scraps of mercy in a brutal world. But when the line between captor and companion blurs, you realise sometimes the only way out is through the fire.Concluída
