Maya applied pressure to my wound. I hissed from the pain. "Stop fucking around." She rolled her eyes at me. Maya finished tending my wound, wrapping it with a bandage. As she got up to put the first aid away, I stopped her. My thumb rubbed against the cool skin of her hand. I pulled her to sit on my lap. My fingers ran through her hair. "You're doing it again." I ignored her, sinking my chin into her shoulder. "I have no idea what you're talking about." I placed small pecks on neck. Her breathing turning heavy. "Stop. Someone could walk in." "And? You think they want to watch? Shit, I would." _____________________________________ ~Maya Castillo~ Escaping her traumatic past, Maya and her brother, Santiago, run to New York.

The 9 lives of Cats and Gods (Merry Men Book 1)
What if you had nine lives to get it right? Sebastian Blake, a veteran of the foster care system and isolated genius, is weary of a cruel world where crime goes unpunished. So he hunts serial killers in his spare time, picking out details the police over look. And now the trap is set. Sebastian has nine suspects to put behind bars, and he's about to set everything into motion. Let the games begin. Robin has been on the run for years. He's three false identities deep and he has no intention of going back behind bars. A masked vigilante by night, he spends his days learning to assimilate to society while hiding his real identity, a sociopathic killer who avenges the weak by mercilessly executing criminals. There's no way anyone will see through his clever disguises, will they? Basically I wrote this because I wanted it to feel like a Netflix original series you become emotionally invested in, binge until two am on a Saturday, then try to convince people to watch because it wasn't necessarily the greatest thing out there, but it was definitely decently clean good fun. Trigger/Content Warning: Violence, teenage characters discuss former trauma to include sexual assault. This is brief. Some on page brief violence. Some brief teenage sexuality.Complete
The Railroad
After an epidemic that gave half the population an incurable disease, only a few major cities remained. One of these included the wealthy city of Tallahassee, Florida, where they had the brightest minds looking for a cure. George Davidson was among those minds: his father was one of the richest people in the world prior to the outbreak and had sent George to one of the most prestigious medical schools in the country. Afterwards, after an incident that caused much grief in the Davidson family, George's father had set George on finding a cure. Finally, after four years of sleepless nights and painful losses, George had done it. He'd found the cure. But if that was the case, then why did he hire a coyote to smuggle him out of the city? Why did he run away with the only known cure for zombie-ism? TW: there's not much in this story other than some depictions of blood, violence, death, and just overall gross/gory stuff 12/1/21- this is a cool date for a cool landmark! 800 readssss 😩Complete
