A boy with a secret.
A girl with a dream.
The story of a lifetime.
Alex Barrie was a normal teenage girl who just wanted some adventure in her life. School, friends, and a social life just wasn't enough for the ambitious senior.
Skylar Whitley was the boy no one noticed. He was studious, and shy, and kept to himself because he was different.
The world was once a dangerous place for people who were different.
When the world learned of people they had dubbed "supers", they became fearful, and scared of the powers the abnormal people possessed. Whether it was the power of flight, or the ability to change shape, the world became anxious, and eventually, hostile.
Alex has never understood the caution against the supers. They were just unique, she thought. But when a superVILLAIN shows up in the city of Burnsbary, superheros must reveal themselves. But will anyone be able to tell the difference between hero and villain?

Skyborn The Divine
Alice has been hiding her true self all her life. She keeps it a secret that she can bend steel with her bare hands, that she can't be cut or broken or bruised, that she can fly through the sky like she was born among the clouds. But she feels pain. She feels tired and ashamed and frustrated. She feels grief. Most of all, she feels lost, a child wandering in the dark in search of a reason she was born this way. She hides her powers, powers that didn't help her save the life of someone she loved. But she can't hide them forever, because if she did nothing with them, if she couldn't help anyone, it would be like letting him die again. But her chance is coming. Somewhere out there, there is someone like her making a difference. If she can find him, maybe join him, she might find the answers and the redemption she needs.Complete

The Bad Boy's Secret |Complete|
When you're a teenage undercover as a part-time superhero you have three options: You can pull on the nerd/geek high schooler or a bad boy/outcast type of high schooler. There's always the bystander, but that's never any fun. Whatever fits you most. I definitely fell into the category of a bad boy/outcast. I've always been a bit 'intimidating', so they say, even before I got my powers. So I stuck to it. Besides, who would ever think that the bad boy is actually a superhero? Apparently, a certain someone, Jenna Davison if we're going to be specific, the good girl somehow caught on to my little alter ego. And well that kind of turned both of our lives upside down, inside out, and just backwards!Complete![Villain Academy #JustWriteIt [WATTY AWARD WINNER OF 2015]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/44572661-256-k359831.jpg)

WATTY AWARD WINNER OF 2015 - #JustWriteIt Challenge ✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾ The hero of her dreams was too bad to be true. ✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾ Villain Academy; where all the psychotic teenagers are trained to be the world's best villains. Try being the baddest of them all when the Puberty Truck is smacking you in the face--repeatedly. It's a hard time for young, attractive villains who haven't reached eighteen. And you'd think they already have enough to deal with when their worst urban legend fear appears: The Hero. So isolating evil-minded, puberty-hitting, aggressive teenagers into a confined brick building may not be the most intelligent choice of mankind. It was inevitable for there to be one hell of a problem. And that problem was me.Complete
The Life of a Villain
Aren't you ever tired of the same old super hero story? The hero is cool looking with bulging muscles, and always wins. Like, always. Even if the situation is dire and it all seems lost. All the sudden, freaking deus ex machina. And the villain is either some super nerd, or a loser. Do you have any idea how stereotypical that is? Hero=jock/bully. Villain=nerd/loser. But not this time. This is a new story. The Life of a Villain. Part 1: This is a story about Leonardo Sutton a.k.a Knifeslinger, an 18 year old villain out for revenge for his family's death. He goes undercover at Ravenswood Academy where he meets new friends and old friends, and an evil plot that could shake the world. Part 2: Life was finally starting to settle down(ish) in the few days of freedom, but of course normality can't be something for ex-villain Leonardo Sutton. When an alien invasion is imminent, Leo must be Knifeslinger again, and work with Team Amazing to stop the Disastrous Nuclear Anthropoid and his planet of people. #1 in #supervillain 7/5/2020Complete

Saving A Villain
SEQUEL TO LOVING A VILLAIN There were sparks when we met, but not the kind that you would think. One look at him quite literally knocked me out. Seriously. I was unconscious. He was not some shining hero on a white horse, who swooped in and saved the day. No he put the Hero's head through a wall and laughed. Overall, he and I are a complete shit show. Complete. Shit show. He isn't nice. Or kind. Or hell, even legally decent. And he sure as hell isn't sane. Through all his shitty qualities, the villainous attitude, and even all the multiple attempts on my life. I fell for the villain of the century. My damn luck. Blue Doom. But did we get the semi-happy ending? Or at least the one you're suppose to get when you end up with the villain of the story. But no. I get the short stick. He's nothing I ever imagined, but everything I'll ever need. I already fell in love with the villain, now its time for me to save his crazy ass.Complete
