"Do you think we're safe?" I said, trying to keep the tears from falling.
"I...I don't think they can find us here," Lucas replied, although I could hear his breath hitch in his throat.
"I can't believe this is happening. Our world is over as we know it, isn't it?" 
With a shaking breath and a light squeeze of my shoulders Lucas replied, "Maybe. But our world, you and me, maybe it's just beginning."

Kadota (Love Trilogy) by Lisa_Evette

In the quiet desert village of Dey, living among the sand dunes and mirages, existed an anomaly - me. I was different, born without the ability to read, write or keep long memories. My scientist father hailed my uniqueness as a miracle, but my life was far from ordinary. To the village, I was just an oddity, a walking puzzle with missing pieces. My only solace was my best friend, always standing by me, his unspoken love for me etched in his affectionate gaze. We lived under a cruel regime with a population no more than a hundred. Every year, one of us would be chosen on the Counting Day, a ceremonious banishing ritual, to become yet another outcast to the floating prison island far off in the ocean - our village's dreaded version of population control. Our past criminals, defiant to government, and more terrifyingly, our loved ones gone missing, were thought to inhabit that island, their fate, a terrifying enigma. This year, as the Counting Day approached unrelentingly, and my loved one's life rested on borrowed time, I made a decision. I volunteered to be casted out. It was my turn to face the unknown with a hidden purpose - to locate my lost father who was sent there years ago.

Ocean Blue | gxg ✓ by Olivaughn

[Wattpad's Summer Reading Checklist 2022 Pick] "'Hella heavy' is your response to seeing me with a literal fish tail?" "Sorry. Should ... should it be something else? Wait, does this mean that you can't eat sushi?" * * * * * When Alyssa shows up in Hulhazy Front a week after wiping the memory of her partner, she's terrified of ruining everything again. Her brother and dad are convinced she'll be okay as soon as she's able to "move on", which makes no sense to her, because they sound like the exact same thing. Alyssa doesn't care about moving on--she just cares about hiding the fact that she's a mermaid from this new small town, and especially her new coworker, Elliot. Elliot has spent the past year trying to figure out how to be out. It seems that every time she finds some kind of balance, something has to happen. Her parents say something homophobic before she's about to confess her "big secret," or her old friends from the swim team make some jab about all the things they're convinced Elliot did sophomore year. She's planning on her summer consisting of working at the public pool, hiding her sexuality, and third-wheeling it up with her best friends, Neema and Duncan. Until, of course, she meets Alyssa. *cover created using graphics from freepik*

What Comes Next by storykeepers

There are some things so horrible that we can't even think about it. Things that happen in the past. You bury them deep so no one will ever possibly be able to find it. You move on, make friends, find possible love. Then, everything you had ever feared or hidden comes back to haunt you all over again. Sorrow, love, anger, pain, and betrayal. What comes next? --- EDITING AUG 2019: This story has been five years in the making, and my skills as a writer and an editor have definitely improved. But hey, come along for the ride.

He believes in the small town they have populated and its mission to save humanity from extinction. He and his small team of men find scattered people and bring them in. Over the last two centuries, women have fought for and won more and more rights, gaining equality with men. Society, law, and technology bolsters and enforces these rights, but now they are gone. Women's equality with men is over. There are just too few of them. They aren't lesser but greater, more important, more valuable than men. Men are expendable. Men can stay outside alone if they like, but all women must be brought inside the safety of the Colony and properly taken care of. James has been searching the area Leah lives in.

Brianna Acero and the Second One's Return by RaquelS03

One hundred years ago, war threatened the existence of humanity. One man's actions might bring it back. During WWV, battles weren't won with bombs, but with science. Specifically, with DNA. Now, a person's place in society is determined by their genetic code. If your Gift is as mundane as knowing what time it is without needing a watch, you're probably a Norm, but if it's so extraordinary that it's considered a danger to the public, congratulations, you're an Elite. Seventeen-year-old Brianna Acero doesn't fall into either category. She is the only girl in the world who has no Gift at all. When life throws her a curveball and Brianna finds herself living among the Elites, she begins to uncover layers upon layers of secrets about her own past, but there is one secret that was not meant to be unlocked. Now, there is no way of putting it back in its cage. The Second One is back, and this time he won't be so forgiving. His actions could bring about a new world war, and the end of Gifted society along with it. Only Brianna is unique enough to stop him, but will she rise to the challenge? Revenge is a dangerous game, and not everyone is ready to play it.
