Fifteen-year-old Sheldon Hickory fights for his life as unusual creatures take over the town of Hidden Trail. On the run, Sheldon and his dad help a group of neighbors hideout, only to be attacked the next day by a larger, more evolved alien species. Separated from his father, Sheldon is brutally beaten and wakes up days later in an abandoned school with a beautiful girl named Cara. The two spend time together in hiding along with a couple of kids who have strange ideas about the intentions of the alien invasion.
  The group is soon picked up by some edgy teenagers who have hot-wired an old school bus, and are preparing to escape to the water. However, when Cara surrenders herself, Sheldon learns about the horrifying yet curious vision of these rapidly evolving aliens. The lovestruck teen soon questions the morality of the human spirit, and wonders what it might be like to submit to the utopian idealisms of this new alien race.
  
  **WARNING** - this story may seem 'gentle' in the beginning, but it can get a little disturbing and there is some mature content.

Exile: The Book of Ever by JamesCormier

Centuries after the Fall, the United States has been wiped away. The crumbling remains of the great American empire are home now only to savage, lawless tribes and packs of ravening Damned-the twisted children of the apocalypse. Most of those few who survived humanity's destruction spend their short lives in a violent struggle for survival. But some light still flickers in the darkness: the Blessed of Bountiful live in seclusion, relying on walls both physical and spiritual to protect them from the Desolation that their world has become. Among them are the Saints, those few men and women born with superhuman abilities that the Blessed see as gifts from God. The violent apostate tribes of the Northeast Kingdom have always been a danger, but up until recently its small size and the vigilance of its people have made Bountiful an unappealing target. As attacks on the community grow harsher and more frequent, however, even the steadfast Blessed are forced to start preparing for the worst. With her home's very existence threatened, seventeen year old Ever Oaks, a Saint with the power to heal, is forced to make a difficult choice, one that may come to define her people's future... Exile was a semi-finalist in Mark Lawrence's Great Self-Published Fantasy Blog-Off (#SPFBO). Fantasy Faction said it was "extremely cool," and Bookish Lifestyle called it "more than just a story, a journey and an experience." When I'm asked about it, I often describe it as "X-Men meets The Walking Dead." In addition to reading it here for free, you can buy Exile in e-book or paperback on Amazon.com.

More Than Ever by emmehnim1

"I don't think I could do what the other girls do with you..." "And why's that?" He asked as he tucked a lock of my hair behind my ear. "In fact, I think you would be even more suited for it." "No..." "You can use all of those pent up feelings for me to become a very useful slut," he said turning my face to him by my chin. *** Irene knew Dexter since high school where she was more popular and he was the anti-social nerd. Despite their popularity divide, Irene was drawn to Dexter. Mainly because her sexual desires were rooted in intellectualism, and Dexter is the pinnacle of intelligence. However, his time in college brings out a part of Dexter that for Irene doesn't match the man she has liked for so many years. Dexter is now a womanizer with his sights set on Irene. But he has a secret involving his mentor that may be too much for good girl to handle. *** For mature audiences only. This book like my others is rather kinky. It's not for everyone. Check the tags before starting. Releasing chapters over time. No set schedule.

Otherworldly by bellakills

It doesn't make sense. How is any of it possible? Where does the plot line link? Why care about some random teen aliens? Oh, God, why does it get dark so fast? The plot twist in this story is destined to make any reader mad. What a mess of a story right here. S.A. Trigger warning read at your own risk please and thank you.
