When you lose everything, can you still live for something?
Having lived the majority of her life as an agent for a dangerous facility in her dystopian society, Dagger Woods is not the typical seventeen year old girl. She's as tough as nails, and almost a robot when it comes to her emotions. Unless her family is involved, it's almost impossible for her to feel. Until her brother is captured, that is. When the enemy takes someone close to her heart, Dagger is faced with a decision between family loyalty and trust to the facility she has been under for years. As she makes many tough decisions, she uncovers secrets about her government and family and learns that love can be a major weakness in her line of work.

Pandora's Trials
In a world ravaged by a virus and plagued by conflict, a girl named Pandora Meyer recovers from the virus that took her memories and lives with her father, Abraham, in an isolated cottage hidden by the thick forests of the northern peninsula of Michigan. One day, she saves a boy who says his colony needs help. The southern peninsula was taken over by a cult hellbent on either growing their numbers or wiping out sinners, and they want to expand northward. As she helps the northerners fight off the violent cult, she must figure out who she is and how to survive in a harsh, unforgiving world where one slip up will kill you. However, she soon begins to wonder who the real enemy is. They say the Pandora of ancient myth opened her box and doomed humanity, but can this Pandora save it? P.S.

The Blade
After the fifth World War, the supernatural broke out of their hiding places and captured control of the Earth. The sixth World War, however, was kept hidden from the humans in hopes to keep the peace. Werewolves reign, vampires roam, and the rest of the supernatural reside just like any other. Besides humans. With necessities such as food and civil rights stripped from them, humans form an organization to revolt against all supernatural creatures; they call themselves the Blade. When the vampires cause an uproar in Africa, the French Blade - run by nineteen year old Emelia - intervene. Little did they expect, though, that the infamous werewolves would also make an appearance. With no weapons to defeat werewolves, Emelia orders her people to focus on the vampires, which results in her saving a wolf's life. When the beast, Alpha King Mohegan, turns to her, he discovers his rescuer is his mate. Will they be able to overcome the hatred they have for one another? And when faced with unfathomable circumstances, will they be able to fight a war that is more powerful than anything they could imagine - something that has been kept under wraps for over one hundred years? Find out in The Blade.Complete

Forever Fighting | ✔️ | [previously Espionage: double-cross]
Guns, revenge and buildings to bomb, what could go wrong? ✮ He came in, gun held out in front of him in one hand while the other was resting on his hip where a sharp dagger gleamed in the light. "Come on out little girl, why not make this easier for both of us. The agency you ran away from just want to have a little talk, that's all." She scoffed internally. Yeah right. Then the footsteps ceased. She peeked to the right, then to the left. Neither direction showed any sign of the intruder. She looked up in front of her and gasped, the glint of steel and smell of death as overwhelming as it was adrenaline inducing, exciting. "Boo." ✮ Murder, accidents, assassinations. Call it what you will, it's all the same, all has the same life breaking, mind shattering consequences - be it for the victim or the bystander. It had shaped Alex in a way no one should be. Broken down and rebuilt into the perfect soldier, one who had the power to change the world, to fight battles that would either make or break the carefully constructed vision we all live in. The only small, minute, really unimportant detail - it's pretty hard to get into a government classified site when you're 15 years old and have a rag-tag team of double-crossing back-stabbers behind you. Not to mention the threat of a world war and ghost hanging above your head. Armed with sarcasm, wit, and a hell of a lot of aggressive intentions, it won't be too long till a sticky situation is all that's ahead of you. Sometimes, running head-first into a situation isn't the best idea. Instead, you gotta play a game. A deadly game where either you have all the pieces on the board, or you have nothing. [previously known as Espionage: double-cross] Thanks for reading :)Complete
