Their job was never easy, but at least assassination was comfortable for Lanada. Now Sam Bones from the STAR agency has evidence of their crimes. The agency isn't seeking punitive justice though; Lanada is wanted for their specific skillset in silent, tactical murder.
While uncovering a corporate and government conspiracy, Lanada and Sam's rocky partnership grows stronger as they fight under the STAR agency, forced to face the ethics of their careers and the consequences of their decisions. After a chilling discovery about their war with a co-opted political movement, they must make a choice between their career comforts, or risking it all to reconcile with their pasts-both packed full with death.
What to expect:
Aliens in a grounded, realistic world; no space.
A universe not reliant on capitalism, where stateless societies are the norm.
Military escapades criticizing state control and its corrupting nature.
Nonbinary protagonist who's sorting out some personal issues.
Their gay best friend.
The world's shittest dad, but the world's best STAR agent.
This is the second draft!!

يا شبيهن للثريا في علاك
من وسط غابات الدُجى، في فصل الشتاء، حيث يتعانق الضباب مع أغصانٍ عارية كالأسرار، بدأتُ أنسج الخيال بحكايةٍ لا تتكرّر. لم تكن حكاية تُروى على لسان أحد، بل فيضٌ من الهواجيس، تسكّنت في داخلي زمنًا، حتى لفظها القلم كأنّه ينزف. في كل سطر، كانت الغابة تحكم قبضتها على الذاكرة، تسحبني إلى عمقٍ لا يُشبه إلا الحلم، حين يصبح كابوسًا. إنها حكاية وُلدت بين الغيهب، المنطلق من غابات الدُجى، والنيار المشتعل في أطرافها... بين السواد الذي يبتلع الأصوات، واللهب الذي يلتهم الظلال، بين الشرسة الصامتة، التي تسكن أعماق الأرض، والنار التي لا ترحم، حتى في رقتها. كأنّها صراعٌ أبديّ بين الغموض والنور، لا غالب فيه إلا الحكاية نفسها. ليست هذه الحكاية من زمنٍ معروف، ولا من مكانٍ مألوف. هي نثرُ هواجيس، لا تُروى بل تُنسج، لا تُكتب بل تتسرّب من بين السطور. حكاية تولد في الفراغ، وتعيش في الظل، لا تبحث عن منطق، بل عن شعورٍ يلامس الغياب. في حضرة الغابة، وفي غياب اليقين، تصبح كل فكرة مأوى، وكل رعشة قلم، احتمالًا لحقيقة لم تُكتشف بعد. فليست الحكاية ما نكتبه، بل ما يكتبه بنا، حين نستسلم للتيه الجميل، ونمضي بلا خريطة، سوى خفقة شعور دُجىComplete![𝐈𝐒𝐇𝐀 - 𝐇𝐈𝐒 𝐀𝐑𝐑𝐀𝐍𝐆𝐄𝐃 𝐁𝐑𝐈𝐃𝐄 [COMPLETED]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/386789539-256-k857741.jpg)

Dad's Restaurant In Another World 2
Part 1 COMPLETED Part 2 On Going Please support me on Patreon~~~ Thank you!!! ____ In the Chaos City of Nolan Continent, there's a peculiar restaurant. Here, elves have to share tables with dwarves, orcs are strictly forbidden from making noise, dragons can only sit around the small square in front of the restaurant, and demons even need to bring their own special stools... Yet, despite these bizarre rules, a long line forms outside the restaurant every day. Elves eat skewers without regard for etiquette, dragons huddle around a hotpot with ladles in hand, and demons munch on adorable dumplings... "The food here is unlike anything else on the continent! This owner is a genius!" one customer commented, then secretly glanced towards the entrance: "And, whatever you do, don't even think about kidnapping the owner or trying to dine and dash, or you'll die a horrible death." "Eat and pay, or I'll kill you all." a cute little girl said in a sweet, childish voice, her gaze falling on a nearby dragon, causing the five or six meter tall dragon to shiver. _____ *This novel belongs to the author Qing Yu Jiang Hu (轻语江湖).

PROJECT: 24
In a world where survival is measured in hours, a mysterious experiment unleashes chaos that spreads faster than anyone can contain. What begins as whispers in a laboratory soon erupts into a citywide collapse, forcing ordinary lives into extraordinary battles. As the countdown ticks closer to destruction, twenty‑four lives become intertwined-each carrying the weight of fear, betrayal, and the fragile hope of salvation. The true danger is not only the infection that stalks the streets, but the choices people make when desperation takes hold. The dead may bite, but the living can betray-and that is the greatest danger. Project:24 is a story of resilience, unity, and the haunting realization that humanity itself can be both the disease... and the cure.
