The year is 2018 and nearly .1% of the world population has meta abilities - but that doesn’t apply to Torrin Murdoch. A nineteen-year old college student living with her best friends, Tory’s only dream has ever been to run, fast. The only problem? She’s severely asthmatic.
But nothing is impossible, right?
After a night on the town gone awry, Tory suddenly finds herself with a new ability and a new responsibility to the well-being of her home. Portland is going to get a lot weirder with Blur on the loose.
Crime fighting, criminal masterminds, and college homework? It’ll be a wheeze.

Why Can't I Be Yours?
|| featured @newlywrittenbooks 29/12/2022. *** Michelle Thompson, the eighteen-year-old workaholic is bent on earning her boss's attention at all costs. Though not pushy or... flirty, she's soaked in solid sex dreams which gets worse with each passing day. Slowly and unnoticeably, she develops partial-obsessive tendencies; one that kept her dwindling in the thoughts of having sex with him-even as a virgin! Forgoing his harsh countenance, overly exaggerated reactions, she envisions Charles in the portrait of cold-nineteenth century men that spew flavors of love to their lovers-in the door. And Charles Jackson, built on grace and glamor, could win a medal in egocentrism, pride, rudeness, malevolence, prudishness and of course, beauty! Lurking in the shadows of her emotions and fated to be bewitched by perfect blue eyes that defied everything morality, she might discover that Charles Jackson, heir to Jackson Companies PLC and CED of Westland Airlines was truly born of STONE and FROST. And worse, everything that she believed might just be a lie! ••• Yo guys, quick message. This book is under a critical rewrite, like... at present as I want to complete this writing project before college resumption. I'll be leaving updates about rewritten chapters in the first page of the book, here on Wattapad. The message should come like this "chapter 7 is out, don't read beyond", and kindly oblige to avoid confusions and spoilers.Complete

Wanting to be a superhero and becoming one, are two completely different things. But becoming the opposite? That's way easier. And sometimes it's not on purpose. Fate didn't want me to be a hero. I was a fairly normal girl, growing up in Central City. A city where superheroes and super villains didn't exist... until the particle accelerator exploded. Many people were turned into these metahumans, me being one of them. Likely one of the only changed nine year olds at the time. My parents were both scientists for Star Labs, being two of the many others that died in the blast. Needing to get away, I decided to move to Gotham. A good city to hide in. Maybe it wasn't the best city to move to, but, in the end, I'm glad I did. In the crazy town, I was adopted by the two craziest people there. The Deranged Duo, Harley Quinn and Joker. "Rescued by villains, who knew?" I say. "Villains rescue fellow villains," Joker says. "Sounds funny coming from you," I scoff. "Aww, is that the way you should treat your saviors?" Joker teases. "I could've taken them," I scoff. "Why did you save me?" "We watched you take out the last group of thugs," Harley says. "We've been looking for a protégé, sorta like how Batsy has that sidekick, Robin, was it?" Joker grins. "We like you. You're funny." ...

Here is the origin story of two of those children. Hathu is born to a man determined to make the universe bow to him and his species.

When he accidentally overhears his father plotting against the Ir'Klahn empire, can Hathu stop him? Mik is born with no rights, destined to become a lifelong slave.
