The world is slowly falling into despair. The sand rapidly approaches, bringing everything and everyone down with it. There are only a small handful of safe havens left. Over the past two hundred years, the sand has claimed more and more victims.
Avra has always dreamed of seeing the world beyond the city walls. She has only heard rumors of the wonderful land, but those fake stories were never enough for her. She wishes to go there herself -- to the beautiful, peaceful land that she has heard so much about. However, there is a problem. Not one person has went past those gates in hundreds of years. What are the chances that she'll be able to accomplish something that no one else has?
Evander is a commander of an army, sent out to discover the mystery behind the destructive sand. As commander, it is his duty to see his job through. He must travel the world in search of answers, risking his and his men's lives for a higher cause. Though, with the team he's stuck with, this may be more than he can handle.
In order to save the world, they must be able to work together and find out who is responsible for the exitium's destruction.

Edenfall | Book 1 of The Ash Garden Series
Centuries of war left the world in ashes. Nations fought endlessly over dwindling resources, turning families against each other and weaponizing everything-from bombs to bioweapons to genetics itself. The once-vibrant continent of Virelia, an expansive supercity, became a desert. From this devastation rose Rafri: a new nation ruled by five powerful corporations, promising to guide the survivors toward a fragile peace. Centuries later, Leandra's life seems perfect. Heiress to Virelia Biotek, betrothed to the striking Elias Kael of Nexacorp Systems, she is cared for and protected despite her medical ailments. In the city of Ephyra, she has everything a girl could dream of-until a simple DNA test shatters her world. Her parents aren't her parents; she was stolen. With her parents offering no answers or explanations, Leandra does the only thing she can: she runs. Potoo's life is simple: they steal, they fight, they eat, and then they wake up again tomorrow. In the slums of the outer ring of Ephyra, it's every man for himself, and Potoo liked it that way. That is, until someone with white hair and piercing blue eyes turned everything upside down. Suddenly, survival isn't just about the streets anymore-they're being hunted, and dragged into a mystery involving a girl whose life may change everything. As secrets unravel, Leandra and Potoo discover the truth is far bigger than a stolen child. It's a truth that could heal their shattered world-but only if they survive long enough to see it through. ------------- Status: Hiatus :(

Zone 7 - English Version
4 chapters, very long One mission. One desert. No return. There were twelve units. Eleven failed. The last, Unit 12, was sent without explanation, with a single order: to exterminate all life in a forgotten base, isolated in the heart of the desert. No contact. No help. No room for error. What they discover is beyond horror. Creatures we don't understand. Silences louder than the screams. And the feeling that none of this was ever meant to succeed. But amidst the chaos, a forbidden bond is born. Friendship, the kind you shouldn't feel when you're programmed to kill. When the masks fall, one of them sacrifices himself, and we understand that the nightmare is only just beginning, only one question remains: How long will you hold on... to remember who you are? ➤ Military Closed Door | Psychological Suspense | Heartbreaking Ending ➤ Forbidden Romance - Sacrifices - Monsters - Final RevelationComplete

First to Rise (Inkitt/galatea only)
The aliens came here for one thing, and one thing only.... Females. ( This story is only available through Inkitt or galatea!!!) (may be made available to read on Wattpad for short periods) Humans believed they were the only intelligent life to exist... that it was impossible for another species to evolve in a way where they could prevail in something as great as space travel. humans believed they were supposed to be the most technologically advanced species and the alpha predators... They were wrong. The Xandisians evolved in ways humans never could have imagined, they are natural-born killers with phenomenal strength and agility. Their kind never went through the same devolution as humans, they never lost their natural instincts to hunt, kill, or breed. With their limitless potential and monstrous strength, they faced few threats and could survive almost any threat that befall their species, almost. After an incurable sickness washes over the planet of xanadis, the majority of the female, young and elderly, and vulnerable population is all but wiped out, leaving a small portion of the male population to face the threat of extinction. With no choice but to look to the stars for a means to save their kind from complete annihilation, the xandisians set out to find a race compatible with their own. after many years and countless failed expeditions, they finally find a species that matches their base DNA on a planet called Earth. The only issue now is how humans will react. (Book 2 LTF series) (CAN be read as a stand alone, but not recommended for nostalgia reasons~) (ps this is UNEDITED, grammar and spelling mistakes will ensue!)
