"I am sorry." He barely whispered.

"For what Martin?" I spat, 
"For not leaving that place when I told you to do so? Or for knowing these people here which you shouldn't?  Or for not telling me what your past was before?" I was breathless and irate.

"No Claire," he caresses my cheek with his knuckles, "I am sorry that you are special, and they know it."

"Who they? The ones outside this room?" I ask with my brows furrowed.

"No. The ones back in the fair."

BROKEN VOWS (Lucas & Emilia Book 1) by ArianaClarkAuthor

Choosing her cost me everything I'd ever loved... including her. It's why I left the small town where I grew up and vowed never to return. I'm no longer the "golden boy with a bright future" they all remember. Instead, I carry the scars of a tortured past. A broken man deemed unfit, even by the Navy SEALs he'd dedicated the past decade to serve. What was supposed to be a quick trip to sell my parents' property turned into this twisted journey that forced me to confront my demons. And then there she was. My first love, and deepest regret. The woman who still owns every piece of my blackened heart. When she asked for my time, I couldn't refuse. Now I can't walk away. Not after hearing of the danger her husband, a missing FBI agent, has brought to her doorstep. After everything, I owe her my help. It's why I offer to protect her and her two little girls from the danger circling them. It's a vow I never should have made, given the trail of bodies I've left in my wake. Like the harbinger of death, I'm the last man either of us should trust. In the Broken Redemption Series, one man's vow to protect the woman he lost becomes a battle between redemption, forgiveness, and the kind of love that refuses to let go. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Lucas & Emilia's story begins here: Book 1 of their Broken Redemption arc. Each couple's love story in the Broken Redemption Series is told over multiple books and forms a complete arc within this collection of connected romances set in the small town of Ruby Creek. There's no required reading order, but if you'd like to start at the very beginning, you're right where you belong. Lucas & Emilia are the first couple, followed by James & Annelly, whose story begins with Broken Misery (Broken Redemption Series - Book 1 of their arc).

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.

(OLD) Forever Desires by WastedDaylight

The updated & edited version of this story is now on Wattpad!: https://www.wattpad.com/story/43967583-forever-desires A trigger was pulled...and it wasn't mine. ※※※ Ever and her team had been locked in the arena for seven years, and throughout those seven years she has been tortured, played with and lied to. Her trust in everyone was slipping and her confused feeling for the boy she's known since she was six, was starting to pull her back -- keeping her from being who she was and her duty. Her duty was to rid the world of this terrible game called, 'The Emag', (formerly known as 'The Bloody Desires'). Why? She didn't want others to experience her pain and confusion. She wanted children to be safe -- to be loved. Not torn to pieces by machines and not starved to death. Even with her thorough planning, nothing ever went as planned. Captured. Humiliated. Tortured. All again. Ever was beginning to wonder if her plan would succeed...and if she could finally escape the abuse once and for all, well keeping her team alive. (Trailer by me)

Defying Desires by RubytheWritrix

I'm sure we've all heard this popular love quote that says; If you ever have to choose between two people, always choose the second person because if you truly loved the first person, you wouldn't have fallen in love with the second. Well, not all of us would agree on that. Mia North included. ***** So meet Mia North, a 21 year old self acclaimed cursed and pennyless woman who has only one aim in her life. Find a way to fend for her sick father and teenage brother. As fate plans it, she lands a job in Starvnos house of Publishers, the largest publishing company controlled by the two contrasting brothers. Alan and Alaric Starvnos. But what happens when she has to choose between the two brothers? Even worse, what happens when it turns out, it isn't her choice at all but fate has to make that decision for her? And the worst of it all, what happens when fate makes the wrong decision for her, one that could cost her the life of someone she loves? *** "Miss North, you're fired." The beast in a suit nonchalantly declared to me as I fought the urge to grab the mirror on his desk and smack his face with it. "You gave me twenty manuscripts to edit in just three hours." My voice reverberated in a the four walls, not giving a damn he was my boss. "And you failed to do it. Now listen here, I don't work with a lazy, dull, incompetent, unreliable and irresponsible mediocrity of an employee who's not half as committed as the owners of this organization which unfortunately for you, includes me. And, I'm sorry, I'm not Alan. Never in a billion years, will I be smitten with you." "Now don't let me repeat myself, Miss North. "You're fired." Gracefully, he pressed a button on his desk. "Security, report to my office and escort Miss North out." *** Completed : 20th September 2020 Enjoy!! The moment you open this book, well, you'll testify for yourself.

BROKEN COURAGE (Lucas & Emilia Book 3) by ArianaClarkAuthor

While tortured and held captive as a prisoner of war, she became my reason to keep breathing. The force that fueled my will to fight. To survive. When I woke after the rescue to discover the life I thought I was coming home to was but a figment of my imagination, hallucinations brought about by pain, desperation, and isolation... it nearly broke me. Fifteen years since I first lost her, at last, we have a second chance. Holding her in my arms, finally feeling the warmth of her skin as she melts under my touch, is like a dream. She and her two little girls are now as essential to my existence as the air I breathe. However, just as things start falling into place, the universe steps in, threatening to take it all away. I used to think that choosing her cost me everything I'd ever loved, but now I see that in choosing her and her children, I have the chance to reclaim all that I lost. They are my salvation. My true path to redemption. Which is why I'll leave no stone unturned, why I will scorch this world to the ground if that's what it takes to save them. And when I do, I will fight to convince her once and for all they are meant to be mine, just as I was destined to be theirs. In the Broken Redemption Series, one man's vow to protect the woman he lost becomes a battle between redemption, forgiveness, and the kind of love that refuses to let go. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This is Book 3 of Lucas & Emilia's Broken Redemption arc, the emotional conclusion to their story. For the full journey, start with Book 1: Broken Vows.

Out of the Shadows by WillowBlackWriting

Alexandra Dalton lives in a crumbling post-apocalyptic wasteland ruled by The Enforcement and terrorized by the Legacies, power-wielding humans corrupted by their abilities. But when a deadly encounter thrusts her into the heart of a war for humanity's survival, secrets of her father's past begin to surface, forcing her to choose: fight for the light or be consumed by the darkness. In a world where entire cities can burn in minutes, and nobody can truly be trusted, can she protect her mother and sister-and uncover the truth before it's too late? Excerpt: "Dad?" My voice was no more than a whisper. The tendril caught the woman just as she was about to hit the ground, and in one harsh movement, it tugged her into the darkness. The blackness engulfed her screams, swallowing them completely. I could feel my father pulling on my wrist. His grip was so tight it hurt. Everywhere around me, people were dying. Their shrieks echoed in my ears, and I couldn't seem to move. My hands started to shake as I looked toward the dark sky. The silhouettes of bodies in the air, lit eerily by the theme park's neon colors, littered the sky like stars. This wasn't just chaos-it was the end of everything we knew. Chapters released weekly!

The Way It Is by JessieGoodwin

I am not from this planet. Hell, I am technically not from this galaxy. However, that doesn't change the fact I am here now, and my job is to save what I can on this forsaken planet and what's left of its inhabitants. The problem is that not everyone wants to be saved. I know what you're thinking. You can't save those who don't want to be saved. I bloody well agree. The ones who sent me don't care what you or I think, though. All they care about is numbers. They need a certain success rate to continue to get funding for their "expeditions" and "peacekeeping" efforts. I use both terms loosely here. However, that's what they put on their records, and it's what sounds good and looks suitable to their investors. So this is the way it's going to be. So be it! Oh, did I forget to mention the Universe decided I was the lucky girl to help find the one person who could save us all from self-destruction? Yea, that is a shitty idea, but once again, no one cares what I think.

the prize of his love ( rewrite ) by ToriaForbes

( rewrite ) Huntingtown was panicking; no one knew where the sirens were coming from. There was no electricity, and there was no way for the storm Sirens to be sounding, yet they were. The entire Town was awake; everyone had a weapon. They had grabbed guns, knives, swords, and bats if they could be wielded and used for self-defense; Renee aimed her rifle at the trees, looking desperately for an explanation. Why would a siren sound? They only sounded when they were in Danger, so where was the Danger? When the predators revealed themselves, that was where the siren noise was coming from. Renee could feel her heart jump into her throat. Her face went pale; they were here. They had found the Town. Terror and panic soon swept Huntingtown; everyone knew what those monsters could do. After all, they conquered the planet and imposed the "choosing." Huntingtown was created hoping that its isolation in a cold climate would keep the Predators away, but it didn't. A voice came over those speakers. A male voice Gruff and laced with a growl. It was almost as if whoever was speaking was annoyed and angry. "Although I have enjoyed seeing your little Town outmaneuver many hunters. I am afraid this is where your little games end. However, I will give you a chance to keep your freedom. A hunt. Your best hunter, Renee Madison, will lead you." Renee felt her blood go cold as she stared wide-eyed at the ship. She was unknowingly dropping her gun at the news. " she will be your leader; she will be my prize. You have a time advantage. Go!" The ship took off, looking for a place to land, all while the news sank into the Town's residence. Renee had known she had fucked up when she fired at one of those predators and hit him. She had proven herself worthy of the hunt. Now she has to face the consequences, and not only her but her entire Town has to. Renee had to win this hunt; the fate of her Town depended on it.

Psychic Shorthand by Star_Tro

MC: Here's a How Not to Survive a Hostage Situation: Don't be me. Rule#1 Don't meet a guy fighting against cutlery. Rule#2 Don't get mistaken for someone with talent when you've absolutely none. Rule#3 Don't let a war, a high-stakes revenge plot, and one human weapon disguised as a person wreck your already failing life. (Oh, and don't expect me to tell you my name. You'll have to earn that.) But if you do? Congrats. You're now in my position-trapped, bleeding, and somehow still expected to be the sane one. Trowa: You're not the sane one. MC: Okay, first of all-rude. Second of all, enter Trowa. Trowa: Don't enter me into this. MC: Sigh. He's a questionable ally who moves people like chess pieces. Trowa: Incorrect. I don't play chess with lives. I just... redecorate the board when necessary. MC: Yeah. That's so much better. He plans. I panic. Together, we're one bad decision away from death. Trowa: Two. I have contingencies. MC: Oh, great. So we die second. Fantastic. And if we survive this, I'm going to need therapy. Trowa: You need therapy even if we don't. ################################## She was supposed to be a bystander. Now, she's bleeding in the middle of a war she doesn't understand. A single step-wrong place, wrong time-and now she's entangled in a brutal game of shifting alliances, weaponized secrets, and people who treat lives like collateral. She wanted quiet. Instead, she's dodging kidnappers, advanced tech, and a human weapon in the shape of a too-strategic ally. The worst part? She is not important-just unlucky. And in this kind of game, even those important don't survive long. ################################## For fans of sarcastic narrators, bad decisions, and humor that's basically Percy Jackson... if he grew up, got more cynical, bled more, and forgot how to run away. ##################################
