alien fantasy fiction hero love novel shortt spencer superhero teen waking

Zach Dawson is a seemingly ordinary high-school student, with all the usual issues. He struggles with girls and friends, finds it hard to fit in, and has great difficulty finding out who he will become. One day, his life changes forever when he discovers he isn't human. He is something much more powerful. Will Zach fulfill the prophecy that was written thousands of years ago? Will he accept his fate and save those that mean the most to him? Only time will tell...

This is a book I've been working on for the past three years, and hope to get some feedback before I decide to publish it. The Century Series is a tale of love, lies, heroes, villains, and a whole lot of ass-kicking. 
The Waking is Book 1 of 5.

Enjoy!

The Ascension of Laney: Chapters 1-5 by AuthorKrisHack

I loved him at fifteen. I thought we'd stand the test of time. He was my forever but maybe I fell too fast or loved him too much. Maybe I came on too strong or maybe I did something wrong. He still left. Turned his back on me without a word. I never thought I'd see him again and to be honest, I didn't want to. I began to hate him even though he would never know it. But then, I did see him again and with him came the secrets that would forever change all of our lives. She was only a recurring dream in my foggy subconscious. A voice. A face. We weren't supposed to dream. We weren't supposed to remember. They said it was impossible and the before would never come into the now. None of the others remember, at least not that I know of. What I do know is that she was my everything, my every waking breath. Now that I've found her I will not be losing her a second time. She will be mine again, no matter what the cost. 18+ due to language and sexual content This is the first book in the Ascent Series.

Aria by Chloe_Roissere

***Slow-Burn Book!!*** Aria, born of the shadow mist inside a black hole. She can shift her molecules to transform into anyone or anything. No, she is not a shapeshifter. Aria is something...more. An entity born from the mists of time and deep space. Having been created at the moment of the inversion of a black hole, where matter and life can become one, Aria is literally 'one of a kind', as far as she knows... She has existed for millions of years. Most of which was spent all alone. Now Aria comes to truly live among humans for the first time. She doesn't think like us or feels emotions like us. She feels nothing... Until Richard Weston. Her powerful presence does not go undetected by NASA and the government. Soon the supernaturals in the world come out of the shadows, and the race to possess Aria as a weapon, is on. How does one stop not only a true force of nature but a force of universal creation? Terrifying is what she is, and frightening by the power she wields. This entity may destroy all that we know, and all that we love.

Hue - Archaic #2 (Sample of Published Book) by ReganUre

You know her name. You know her story. You know her secret. She isn't like any other girl, not anymore. Jared Walker complicated everything; he told her his secret, stole her heart and showed her a whole new world. She knew then that she'd never be the same again. Ava Delaney is no longer human - she doesn't know what she is. She should probably figure it out. But there is much more important stuff that she needs to learn first: how to keep her new secret, how to fight and most importantly... how to survive a war that's older than time. She's not like any other girl, not anymore. * Please note that this is only a five chapter sample of the published book.

Even In Pieces [bxb] by the_typewriter_ink

-KIND OF MATURE- "I wouldn't fuck you if you paid me." Well, at least my question is answered. He can get more punchable. We glare at each other, I am surprised neither of us have raised our fists yet. It wouldn't be the first time. "Who says you'll be the one fucking?" I snap back. _______________________________________ Zachary Alvarez has always hidden his broken parts behind his charm, sarcasm and arrogance. He is a complete asshole to most, especially one man in particular who he occasionally wants to lick all over or shoot in the head (He isn't picky). Nothing in Zach's life is constant. All he has ever cared for is himself since nobody else did. A lot of drinks, one-night stands, relationships that he never put effort into and people always leaving, that's all he has ever known. And Everett absolutely hates Zach's guts and hates how his smirk makes him feel triggered. Everett has always been this or that for people, always an image. Most times he doesn't even care, but sometimes it gets irritating. But somewhere both Everett and Zach starts to see each other. All that hate gets a bit too exhilarating. In so many ways... _________________________________________ If you guys are looking for an enemies to lovers with a lot of sexual tension... #1st in lovers #1st in homosexual #1st in bxb #1st in university #2nd in drama #4th in Lgbt #8th in mxm #19th in romance

TimeLord the Vampire Chronicles (Book One part One) by CJoslyn

Okay, so in my opinion, turning sixteen shouldn't be a life and death situation. But for Zachary James McKnight it suddenly is when he finds himself trapped in an alternate reality. One ruled by blood thirsty vampires and where werewolves run an underground resistance war trying to save what's left of the human race. Yeah. Now throw in the fact that he learns he can control space and time with just his mind and dang it, now it seems he is the only one who can save this planet and get them home somehow! Plus he thinks he likes this strange and beautiful girl he meets along the way. Now if she would just stop trying to kill him.

The X Society by kingerspisze

What if one day it turned out that your whole life was a lie? Adam had always felt that there was something different about him, yet he lived like a normal teenager-until one day, his entire world was turned upside down. He discovered that he is the son of the ruler of the mythical planet Nibiru, and that his best friend was actually a bodyguard sent by his father. After learning the truth, Adam must not only come to terms with his real identity and take charge of a secret organization called the X Association, but also navigate a web of intrigue and personal conflicts that force him to make choices which could determine the fate of Earth itself. **The X Society** is the first volume in the main series *The Chronicles of Planet Nibiru*-a young adult saga blending elements of sci-fi and fantasy. The series draws inspiration from mythologies around the world, particularly Sumerian mythology, which tells of the planet Nibiru and the beings known as the Anunnaki.

Loving Zach (MxM) by DKDaisy

Sometimes you need just one person to make all the difference in the world. And even better if you get a whole family of them. Zach's been living in his car for a month now. He has nowhere to go, no job and his money is starting to run out. Life has been rough on him, growing up in an abusive home and later in life becoming the center of a vile man's attention. Just as he thinks his life is never getting better, he meets the charming business owner Dean. Zach is a broken boy and has nothing to offer to a successful businessman who's so handsome he could be on a magazine cover. But life has a way of putting the right person in your path even if you didn't know you were on the one. This is a finished, full length (80k words), slow burn romance about learning to trust, falling in love and healing after life has beaten you down. !Trigger warning: This story deals with child neglect, child abuse, domestic violence and rape. I wasn't overly descriptive about these situations, but they are still a big part of the story. !Explicit sexual scene. Disclaimer: This is a work of fiction. Names, characters, businesses, places, events, locales, and incidents are either the products of the author's imagination or used in a fictitious manner. Any resemblance to actual persons, living or dead, or actual events is purely coincidental.

'Broken Image' ♡ (MXM) ♡ by Fangkun6

(This is targeted for people 16+) "Same with hurting you. Or marking you.." He slid his arm gently down to his back, closing his hand around a bruise that lay on the hero's waist. The hero flinched at the action, still keeping his lips sealed. "I can be the only one capable of doing it.." "Your fucking crazy..." The hero sighed with a bit of fear hidden in his tone. The man smiled with the description, turning his head in the direction of Oxzy's ear, he spoke with a sweet voice. "I can make you go even crazier than me Ox..." ------- A hero and a villain in the same low-profile town, they battle. One protecting, one destroying. The town tries to break them apart, but instead... They grow closer. The hateful and spiteful relationship can only last for so long. So long until it becomes something that can be remotely called anything like love. Love that ends up revolving around trauma and the hindering of emotions. The hero will run, and the villain will follow. ------- WARNING: - Mature & sexual content on certain chapters, - A r*pe scene;(DO NOT ROMANTICIZE) - Sexual assault, - A toxic relationship & characters, - Real like trauma scenarios, - Death, - Gore, (excessive blood description 😅)
