{Wattpad Featured Story}
Nolan Clay was convicted of murder and dishonorably discharged from his marksman position in the Navy SEALs all in one night...for a crime he didn't commit. After spending ten years in prison, all Nolan wants to do is live a quiet life in the mountains of Colorado. 

However, when Nolan is called upon by the Central Intelligence Agency to investigate rumors of terrorist activity, what he uncovers is more than he ever bargained for.

Old enemies are planning to disrupt the way society functions and have created a system that seems unbreakable.

Nolan must decide between two things: Walk away from the chaos as a condemned man, or save it from itself.

Ice and Snow - Sova x Female OC by Audhlin

This is my go at a VALORANT fanfiction; this will be using a character I created (that you, reader, will be in the POV of.) I apologise if it sucks, I'm trying my best. *** Mountains, ice and snow. This was all Everest knew and understood; until a freak accident that occurred on her descent from Mount Everest completely turned her life upside down. Fearful of her sudden new abilities, she cut herself off from everyone around her, isolating herself to prevent anyone accidentally getting hurt. News reporters had shared her early discovery of her abilities to the world, even without her consent.Nobody saw her after that, and wondered where one of the greatest mountaineers of their time had disappeared to. From afar, she watched strange men in laboratory coats and armed guards take people away from her town. Family, friends, neighbours. She didn't know who these people were, or why they were doing it, but she had a solid theory. That they wanted her, and were using those close to her to draw her out of hiding. To try and control her, to kill her, she didn't know. A new organisation contacted her out of the blue after a while, offering safety and help with her new abilities. What she didn't know, was this invitation would change her life. For better or for worse, we'll find out. * Action starts to ramp up chapter 10+. Hang in there and have some fun, thanks for coming along with the ride! ** - Updates most likely every two-three days from now on - TWs include: slight swearing. Violence. Slight manipulation.

Craig of the Dead by Its_Me_Tweek_Tweak

Hey, you! Yeah, you. Listen up, dude, because I don't have much time. Actually, I have a ton of time, I just don't feel like repeating myself. South Park is infested with zombies. Yeah, you heard me right. Shuffling around, undead, want to eat you zombies. I'm stuck as some kind of leader of a tiny crew of kids. I don't know what the hell I'm doing, but everyone else seems to think I do, so I guess we're going with that. In a few days the whole town went from being kinda nuts to completely chaotic. Why do people think I'm a good leader? Why'd all the adults leave? Where's literally half of my grade, they can't all be dead, can they? Why are we not allowed to leave South Park? Do they want us die? How long can we keep on living like this? Most importantly, why couldn't I have just gone with Tweek to the stupid bathroom? Now he's M.I.A. and it's my fault. Anyway, I hope maybe you can find some pleasure in reading this. I mean, I would probably get bored, but whatever floats your boat, dude. Gotta run. Clyde's throwing another fit because someone ate his Hot Pocket (Spoiler Alert, it was me). See ya later, stranger. -Craig **NOTE: the story is not written as journal entries by Craig, I just thought it would be a fun little bit to put as the hook. Apologies if it is misleading.** **ALSO NOTE: the mature content warning is for language, and language only. Well, and I suppose gore and violence, but that depends on what you define as gore and violence**

Despite their differences, the hacker and commander search for a way, any way, to bring their twisted government to its knees. Meanwhile, a girl wanders through a foreign land, desperately attempting to block her past and fill her loneliness. However, from her psychological hardship stems only destruction as with just a click of her fingers, objects disappear one by one.

"You've never listened to my music before? What the fuck, how?" Billie asked confused. "As I said, I just never got a chance to listen to it I guess," I replied sheepishly chuckling, rubbing the back of my neck nervously. "Well, that changes today," Billie said surprised but excited. She got up from the couch anxiously and grabbed my hand, causing me to get up from the couch and follow her, still hand in hand. ~~~ Can a Celebrity/Singer-Songwriter really fall in love with a roadie?

Hot Summer Night by JeniRaeD

Sixteen years ago, my sisters and I moved from France to the United States to live the American dream. Not long after, I met Declan, a marine who was home for his mother's funeral. He was my everything, my world, and the love of my life. Four and a half years later, I became his fiancée. Then, when I thought everything was going well, my world ended when I awoke to him gone. No note, no nothing. He was just gone. I waited days, weeks, and months to hear from him and for his return. That never happened. Then, I met Chadwick, who took the pieces of my broken heart and put them back together. He promised me many things during our dating years, guaranteeing he'd give me the world. And he was. Then, after years of not wanting to give my entire heart to him, fearing he'd do what Declan had done, I pushed the fear of him leaving me aside and married him. The night we married, instead of giving me the world he promised, I was gifted a nightmare. For over six years, I lived in a lake of fire. If I wasn't locked in a dark, cold room for days on end, day and night, I was tormented, punished, abused, and tortured in the blackest darkness until I could no longer see, talk, or move. Maltreating me until he broke me. Finally, one of my prayers was answered when an ally close to Chadwick helped me escape the prison of hell. She flew me out of New York and brought me to her friend's home in Mobile, Alabama, where I got the shock of my life. He wasn't just her "friend." He was a ghost from my past, and now I'm in his care. Oh, and he has a child nearly as old as our breakup.

Awake | 𝐂𝐫𝐢𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐌𝐢𝐧𝐝𝐬 by th8mb4h25vprivatere0

Now if you actually thought this story was over, I'm sorry to inform you, it's not. This is book Two, of Wake Up. And Wake Up holds a special place in my heart so I couldn't just leave it on such a unsatisfying ending. ------------ Damon Le'Odair died almost four and a half years. He died from a gunshot wound to the back of his head, from his father, Roman Odair, who was killed by Aaron Hotcher. Damon died in the same house he grew up in and watched his mother die in, then himself. The BAU team had a funeral for him and mourned his death. Getting back to work was weird without Damon there, sitting at the end of the table or next to the girls or Spencer. But when Hotch presented a case to the team, a case that shouldn't even be a case, the team didn't want to do it. Aaron Hotchner wanted to take down, the head of the CIA, Ryan Milkovich. Put him in prison. And when Hotch starts getting information that only someone from the inside would know, the team starts getting suspicious of why they're really working on this very dangerous, career ending case. And if it's worth it?

The Silent Veil by CyberPixy

Their job was never easy, but at least assassination was comfortable for Lanada. Now Sam Bones from the STAR agency has evidence of their crimes. The agency isn't seeking punitive justice though; Lanada is wanted for their specific skillset in silent, tactical murder. While uncovering a corporate and government conspiracy, Lanada and Sam's rocky partnership grows stronger as they fight under the STAR agency, forced to face the ethics of their careers and the consequences of their decisions. After a chilling discovery about their war with a co-opted political movement, they must make a choice between their career comforts, or risking it all to reconcile with their pasts-both packed full with death. What to expect: Aliens in a grounded, realistic world; no space. A universe not reliant on capitalism, where stateless societies are the norm. Military escapades criticizing state control and its corrupting nature. Nonbinary protagonist who's sorting out some personal issues. Their gay best friend. The world's shittest dad, but the world's best STAR agent. This book is finished, has been edited several times, beta read, and is basically ready for querying. I'm holding off until I get some more feedback, and do some more editing.

Two years after the events of "Operation Holiday Cheer," some members from the team are ordered by the higher-ups at the Central Intelligence Agency to work with federal law enforcement on Operation Steel Tiger. Their objective? To gather intel for the CIA's Counterterrorism Mission Center alongside agents from the Federal Bureau of Investigation and United States Marshal Service, with the goal of taking down a terrorist cell planning a series of attacks. All objectives are ultimately met, but disaster during the raid leaves many good men dead, their families and friends fractured. Everything changes for the living as, in the wake of the operation, the Academy for Espionage is shut down. But life goes on. As the remnant of the team goes their separate ways, the wheels of the world keep turning. As geopolitics change, a new enemy rises in the darkness, forcing the friends to act and think fast as the belligerent strikes out from the shadows. But can they overcome this new foe, or will they too be rendered KIA... or worse?
