Up and down the alleyway ran two bright ribbons of grass, seeming out of place in the otherwise very gray city. Short houses lined down the lane, each with less grass than that of even the two strands in the vacant way. And though the city wasn't properly addressed with a formal name, it was named quite fittingly by it's people and the world around it. As everyone, everything, and every hope and every dream were broken, completely shattered, it was dubbed just that.

Finally Meant (Book 5 of Series)
I made my way through the dark apartment and found the couch. What was going on at this hour that wouldn't allow me to sleep? Whatever it was it was intense, and I wasn't able to ignore it. The rain could be heard smacking into the concrete and against my window. I step out into my patio to watch it, nothing seems of the ordinary, or nothing I could piece together. I felt...sad in a way. This wasn't my sadness, my heart ached for someone else, but who? Why? I rubbed my chest, puzzled by this mystery. I was somehow feeling someones misfortune. I prayed to God this person was alright. Final Book of the 'Meant To' Series.Complete
Let Me Heal You
The city streets glimmered under rain-soaked lights, reflections rippling with each passing car. I walked alone, the hum of the night quieter than usual. Loss clung to me, subtle and persistent, carried in the silent moments no one saw. I thought of the friends I had lost, the trust that had been broken, the absence of those I needed most. Yet even in the darkness, warmth appeared-fragile, unexpected-a smile, a steady presence, a hand that didn't let go. Tonight, I didn't know what awaited me. I only knew that somewhere ahead, someone was walking their own path through fear and pain. And perhaps, just perhaps, our paths would cross, and everything could begin to feel like home again.

City X ([BxB])
"City X: The Society Where Everything Is Just Perfect!" Yeah, right. I see that slogan everywhere, no matter where I look. It's all a lie, an illusion. Everyone believes that it's perfect, but they don't know the workings of the inside. I was told by someone I met years ago what really goes on inside the government building, and since have been moved to the poorest part of the "perfect" city. With every passing day, I feel my reality slipping away, fading into darkness and despair, no hope in me ever being normal ever again. I remember the day this all started like it was yesterday. I was a small five-year-old boy that had the intelligence of an eleventh grader when a new student joined our class, myself having to be the one who had to take him around the school... ~~~ Originally Completed On: November 19th, 2017 Published On: August 1st, 2018Complete![Reap the Earth at Which you Stand [boyxboy]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/239341483-256-k857150.jpg)
Reap the Earth at Which you Stand [boyxboy]
Growing up in chaos isn't simple for all. Not many could cope. They would struggle and kick, but ultimately drown. However, for Dakota, that was his normality. Torturing. Maiming. Killing. That was his life, the life of a hunter. The Arizona line was elusive, written fame in the lore of hunters, and infamy for their prey. They were the best. No one could ever compare to their skills, their abilities, their ruthlessness. But Dakota was something else. His siblings might have learnt to enjoy the hunt, well most of them anyway, but Dakota didn't. There was always something missing for him, something he was waiting on. Silent and everlasting hope. A promise had been made to him, the day his twin brother was stolen, taken by the enemy, plucked right from the very home the Arizonas had grown up in. A promise of something better, something that he might actually want in his life. Now, almost sixteen years later, something was coming. A change was begging to be found. Maybe it would be for the best. Maybe Dakota would finally find that certain something that had been missing his whole life, something to fill the dark and fractured abyss that ached and wailed within. But nothing was ever that simple. Because, of course, the promise that had been made to Dakota would never be anything plausible for him, anything tangible to have and to hold. He had been promised a new life, by the greatest enemy of them all. It wouldn't be easy. Not with his family still clinging to his heels, the teachings of blood and violence burnt into his mind. No, leaving them behind wouldn't ever be easy. Then again, staying with them would only bring his inevitable death. Why not take the chance to die happy? After all, out of the ashes, a phoenix will rise...Complete
