His Last Song- "Ji'de Tas Anse" by DianDianSian

A world once run by humans is now a cold, barren, and toxic wasteland filled with vicious, mutant, and flesh-eating animals; as a result of an unpredicted showering of meteors. The world population is unknown due to the complete shutdown of the media, but the number of inhabitants of the once populous African island, Hardane, has fallen to a number near zero. Two people, a famous Korean singer and a Japanese-African emerging artist, meet by chance as they embark on their separate journeys to traverse their new world. Song Byeong-ho starts his journey with the notion of finding somewhere calm to spend his last days, while Itsuki Uta-ﻃَﺎﺋِﺮ (taa'ir) starts his journey with the notion of finding his lost grandparents. Due to his somber past, Song is skeptical of Itsuki at first; but as their journeys progress, the new demands and horrors of their world pushes them closer. As Song and Itsuki traverse their new world together, they race against death and time. (This is a story of loss and finding a bit more than friendly love in the darkest of places.) - - Heads up! This book deals with parental neglect, parental trauma, mild system fake claiming, mentions of suicide, and much more. This book also dives into plurality; which is the experience of having multiple beings in one body. DID, OSDD, and a few other dissociative disorders fall under that label. DID and OSDD are formed due to intense trauma--and not what the outside perceived as intended trauma, it's what the individual(s) perceive as intense trauma. Plurality also encompasses much more than just dissociative disorders since this experience is not rare. !!Still being uploaded!!

Maze by Tara676

(CURRENTLY REVAMPED!) (The Slices of Life, #1) For years, one thing that had always bothered Serena Wilton is the idea of reconciling with a past friend. Whenever he was around, her eyes rested upon him; whether it was at classes or outside of school. She yearned for those wonderful memories again, but the looming fear just wouldn't let her initiate the conversation. Serena clearly remembered how their paths crossed in that one field trip, and the instant click as they interacted. He was nothing but a sunny friend with such contagious confidence... until that accident. Not only did he turn into someone Serena never recognized, but the relationship they built together, soured and crumbled apart. Even so, perhaps her plans can actually work if she's willing to push that stupid anxiety away and speak a word or two. Piece of cake, right? Rating: R+15 *** Updates: Every weekends This book contains anime/manga illustrations (all drawn by me, unless stated otherwise) and sensitive topics such as depression and grief. 🎖- Featured in YARomance - Semesters of Love 🎖- Featured in Official Anime Profile - Light Novel 🎖- Featured in Official Teen Fiction Profile - Soul Deep 🥈- Undiscovered Writers Awards: Light Novel 🥈- Spotlight Awards: Teen Fiction

A Simping Hedgehog by Shinjitsu7

A lonely, cynical, heartbroken man embarks on a path of self destruction. His own life has taught him how romanticism ruins love, but still he develops romantic love for another woman. Right when things seem to go well, there's a supernatural twist to the tale. Will he win against his fate? Is there anything called fate? Ouroboros and hedgehog's dilemma form the basis of this story. CONTENT WARNING: This work is appropriate for readers of age, 18 years and above, due to explicit references to some sexual acts, and strong language. Also, though, this is a dark comedy, there won't be any offence to any of the races/religions/genders. All the dark comedy is done on the characters, and highly specific to the characters, and there won't be any generalisation.

Virgin Lips by TheWritingWolf1

Joanna Brooks had her life all planned. She'd have graduated in time, got a great job, had a successful career. In the middle there would have been a relationship or two maybe, but by the age of 25, she'd have been happily in a stable relationship, working for a well known newspaper as journalist. She'd have never guessed, when she was 12, that none of these plans would work out. 28 years old, stuck with a crappy job and no love life whatsoever. Future seemed as bleakas ever. With two new kittens, Joanna was readying herself to start her life as crazy cat lady...but her new neighbor, handsome and lovely photographer Ben Harris, doesn't seem to think it that way, as he gets ready to revolutionize her whole existence. Trouble is, his own life is not as crystal clear as he pretends it is. Add two pervasive friends determined to close the chapter in Joanna's life called "virginity" by hooking her up with their cute brother, plus an unsettling return, and you get Joanna's adventure of a lifetime. DISCLAIMER This story is intended for all those girls that have troubles seeing themselves as the beautiful beings they are. This is for you, beautiful girls. Be yourself. Don't be ashamed of you are. Just embrace your own unique nature. Be chubby, skinny, shy, introvert, extrovert, weird, crazy, lovely...whatever it is, just BE YOURSELF.

WE SHOULD STOP NOW by EmilLock

After fleeing from her scumbag ex and quitting college over three years ago Joanie Collins has now rebuilt her life running a little bakery back in her hometown. Happy to be alone rather than being hurt again, Joanie has built up high ice walls to protect her fragile heart and has sworn off all men. That is until troubled playboy millionaire Caleb Maverick returns home after being abroad for two years and they're forced to work together. Can Caleb melt this Ice queens heart and find peace for himself? ----------- "And what about me? Was it just a crush you had on me?" he says in a raspy hushed voice that makes me take a big gulp. I lean forward so I'm now closer also to Caleb and look him straight in the eyes. If we're going to be honest... then let's do this. "Your Caleb Maverick, everyone had a crush on you. The fact you were so oblivious to all the attention you got just added to your boyish charm. The girls at our school wanted one night with Ethan but they all wanted to settle down and marry you." I say honestly and Caleb actually looks surprised. He sits back in his chair looking genuinely puzzled, "That's not...that's not how I remember high school." He mutters before his eyes fix back onto me. "I remember being second best to Ethan for everything. Sports, grades, girls, Mia...you." he grits. ---------------------- The Sequel to 'More than just Neighbours'. I'd recommend reading that book first for these characters backstory x

🥊 Hate or Fate 💕 {Enemies to Lovers} by WhiskeySeattle

One day you're happy, and the next, a freak accident exposes your boyfriend's dirty little secrets in the worst possible way. I lost the man I loved, my trust in people, and my home in less than one afternoon. At least I know that I've pushed past unimaginable pain before, and I can do it again. Elijah didn't break me, just my heart. 💔🔨 So, the LAST thing I needed was to run into my ex's best friend, Gray on the street. Who cares if he's hotter than lava? Gray's a cocky jerk who seems to get a misguided kick out of making my blood boil. And did I mention the guy's got a chip on his tattooed shoulder even bigger than his inflated ego? Unfortunately, I just found out that I accidentally hired him to work on the BIGGEST campaign of my career!💀 But when Gray's prismatic eyes fill with heartfelt apologies, I don't know how to feel. It's messing with my mind, my career, my new friendships, and worst of all, it's hurting what's left of my ruined heart. I thought Gray hated me, but I was wrong...There is something much, much stronger that binds our fate. 🥊💕 This book contains adult themes (aka sexy stuff and trigger content) as well as Oxford commas and the occasional grammatical error. 🥊💕 **This is a complete story that I am currently in the process of editing, so feedback, notes, and helpful comments are always welcome.

Perfect Fate ✔ (Will Be Removed 1st Of FEB) by fanoshkaflippo

Wattpad Creator! Happy and proud. HIM: Staying the night? Not my thing. Hearts and flowers? Boring. Falling in love? Not anytime soon. Settling down? Off the table. Getting married? You're kidding me, right? That was me before the night we first met. Because, well, meeting a hot chick that made me hard just by looking at her was definitely not in my plans when I sneaked out of a woman's apartment after what was already a long night. Taking her home and getting her a chocolate cake, though, was kind of intentional. But falling for her? Boy, that was pretty much inevitable. HER: He came out of nowhere, literally. I was there, sitting on that bench, barefoot and crying and just getting my heart broken in peace and silence. Then he appeared, all mad and furious and sexy and tall and just drool-worthy! And just like that, despite my poor attempts of escaping him, he had me wrapped in his world. A crazy yet heart-fluttering world, that I have absolutely no intentions of leaving anytime soon. ------- Character development is a main theme in this book. It shows you how they both work on changing for the better, while trying to overcome the obstacles in their relationship and fight for each other till the end. ** Warning!! Some chapters contain sexual scenes, but there's always a warning at the head of the chapter. Do not read them if you're under 18.** * Also, please beware that this story contains a lot of swearing. Read at your own risk. * **I don't own any photos used in this book. All are found on the internet for public use.** Highest Rankings: Sexy - #1 Love - #1 General Fiction - #41 Romance - #46 ------ ** Copyright © 2014 by Fanoshka Flippo (Farah Fekry).
