I slip my head back inside and try to gather my thoughts. Here's what I know: my house is on fire, firemen are here and not putting it out, and I'm alive for now. What I don't know: why the firemen aren't putting out the fire, how this happened, and if my family is okay. One more thing tickles the back of my brain. Something is horribly wrong here, and it's not the fire. I'm lightheaded as I realize the obvious: Steel Blaze isn't here.
My house is burning to the ground, I don't know if my family is safe, and I'm not even sure if I'm going to be alive to kill Will at the moment. Steel, the one person I need to save me, is not here. I bite my lip. If he's not here now, I'm sure he's not coming.
This isn't your regular superhero story.

Phoenix's Death: The Tale Of Love, Hate And Betrayal
Phoenix is known to burn, and Death is known to kill. But a phoenix never truly dies-so how can it be 𝐏𝐡𝐨𝐞𝐧𝐢𝐱'𝐬 𝐃𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐡? She was once a daddy's girl, now abandoned in a cruel, unforgiving world... with no memory of who she truly is. And yet, she remembers one boy-only for his betrayal. The boy she loved beyond reason, beyond the moon. He was once a boy burdened with responsibility, who found unexpected joy in a girl who lit up his shadows. But tragedy struck, and all he was left with was the taste of betrayal. She got engaged to someone else... just to leave him. They loved. They lost. They hated. And then they forgot. But destiny... destiny is the real game neither of them ever imagined. Now, fate brings them face-to-face once again. Can the taste of betrayal and hatred unravel them completely, shaking the very roots of their existence? Can love survive when tangled in the menacing strings of family politics? So then-how will it become Phoenix's Death after all these years? Will hatred win? Or will betrayal become the final demise of love?

The Permutation
The people of Lancet Falls, Idaho are changing, and it's all because of an otherworldly light that only a few can see, but the changes are affecting everyone. Animals are dying, people are disappearing, and what's with the men in jackets twenty years out of date showing up in the dead of night? A homeless drunk, a twelve year old from the city, a fat extortionist, a high school science teacher, and a reporter are the first to feel its effects. They're able to do things that no human should be able to do, but will it be enough? Will their newfound abilities be enough to save the town from a threat to its very reality?

Murray Hill || A Superhuman Tale - 1
Superhumans live among us. It is the greatest secret of the 21st Century. Tommy Haas likes it that way. He wants nothing more than to be left alone, to live a quiet life with his beloved Rhonda. But the universe and the federal government won't let that happen. Tommy is stronger and more talented than any human being has any right to be. It doesn't matter that he's a law-abiding, tax-paying citizen. To be different in that way is to be in danger if the authorities find you out. And now his friend Amy Lascar is missing. No one knows where she is or what has become of her, and the police scarcely even bothered to mount a search. It's that way with a lot of people like Tommy, exceptional people who simply have disappeared. Along with his valiant friend Sam Babington, Tommy intends to find Amy. God help whoever gets in his way.Complete
The Last of Them All (editing)
What's not enough for one, too much for three, and just right for two? A secret. But you know teenagers. We tend to break or bend the rules. In this case, three is just right for the secret that these highschoolers hold. Facit autem virtus nostra nos. Our power makes us one. "So, what am I?" "We, we don't know. We're still trying to figure that out." And with that, he got up and left the room. Swirling his coat behind him, leaving us to deal with this information. I felt as if I had just been slapped directly in the face with a frying pan. What do you mean you don't know what I am? As if I'm some sort of alien creature or something that's going extinct. I'm not a creature to be classified. Yet that was how I felt.Complete

The Lycan's Flame
Her love is a weapon. It's killed before. And this time, she's sworn it won't happen again. Everyone at Blackthorn University thinks Kara is just another human girl juggling midterms, frat parties, and overpriced lattes. No one suspects the truth: that she's a Phoenix shifter, hiding in plain sight in a world ruled by werewolves and lycans. Even her closest friends don't know the fire simmering beneath her skin. But Kara isn't just hiding from them, she's hiding from fate. From the one thing she dreads more than anything else: her mate. She's done letting her love be a death sentence. She won't survive another loss. The scars she bears run deeper than flesh. So when Ryker, the dangerously magnetic lycan General, realizes Kara is his fated mate, she does exactly what she swore she would. She pushes him away. Again. And again. And again. But lycans don't walk away from their mates. And Ryker? He's dominant, possessive, and utterly relentless. He's a storm she can't outrun, a flame that won't go out. And every heated glance, every stolen moment, threatens to shatter the walls she's spent years building. As secrets ignite and her past begins to unravel, Kara must face the truth: Can she let herself love again, knowing it could destroy them both? Or will her lies-and the deadly curse entwined with her love-be the very thing that dooms them forever?Complete![𝐇𝐄𝐑 𝐅𝐎𝐑𝐆𝐎𝐓𝐓𝐄𝐍 𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄 |18+ [ongoing]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/396855522-256-k611296.jpg)

Lightning
I never asked to be the person I am now. But a girl's got to do what she simply has to do. Ever wondered why people are afraid of thunder? It's loud, frightening and it makes the roof tremble at the sound of its voice. It's the reason why kids curl up with their mums on a stormy night, and the reason puppies hide under the creek. Yet barely does anyone acknowledges the cause of the thunder; the main reason why it actually exists. But who really is the badass here? It is that quick bolt of light that emerges from the clouds and disappears in the edge of a second. It is the thing that you ought to fear. Because it is fast, silent and most definitely deadly. And that is exactly what I am. I am Lightning. *** Not a super hero book.Complete
