Sometimes there is no difference between a hero and a traitor...
Timothy Val wants nothing more than to serve the Senjelian Empire. As captain of the ranks, he has sworn his life to protect and serve, a fact that brings him honor among his people and those under his command. But the butchery of prisoners is not war. When his objection to the slaughter of unarmed men backfires, Timothy is branded a traitor.
Striped of his rank, dignity and sanity, his only hope of regaining his lost honor and clearing his family name rests in the hands of a political revolution orchestrated by a senator he is unsure he can trust.
With an intergalactic war looming and civil unrest spreading through the empire, Timothy is faced with the most difficult tasks of his life.
Will he find a way to remain loyal to the empire? Or will that loyalty cost him the one thing he craves most...? His honor.
Aftermath is the first in a series of epic space operas. If you love epic tales of empresses and princes, soldiers and mercenaries, senators and slaves, then you don't want to miss E.A Copen's brand new series: Broken Empire!

TORII: The Road to the New World in Conflict with the Golden Eagle
A distinguished soldier fighting against the corruption and injustice of the Mexican cartels, he was known throughout organized crime as a furious demon, an excellent, cold-blooded, and calculating strategist, a merciless killer of his enemies. However, those who managed to survive barely lived to tell the tale. He is the embodiment of evil and anger, so they nicknamed him "Devil" and put a huge price on his head. Years passed, but no one survived, so they understood that crossing paths with this demon was a death sentence. The only option they had was surrender to pay for their crimes and not fight. This led to the total annexation of all organized crime out of fear of the "devil" himself for the sins they committed in life. After the news of what had happened, all citizens burst into joy, throwing their caps and hats in the air as a symbol of victory for the justice of their beloved Mexico. They named that day "The Justice of the Eagle," which had overthrown the evil from their homeland. Months passed, all citizens enjoyed a magnificent peace and tranquility without worries, even the Christian priests took this as a divine sign, giving thanks as appropriate, but this was not the end. An unexpected event happened in Mexico City, what seemed like a Japanese structure, it was not a single structure but a portal to another world where gods, monsters, magnificent beasts and other races live apart from the human, especially magic. Mexico would have a conflict against an Empire with a vast army of samurai that would try to invade the homeland. This was just the beginning of this historical tale. "May God bless us with his grace, may he forgive our enemies because the Devil will not."

Forsaken: The Chosen Trilogy - Book One
Before you begin this story, I must warn you first. This is not a tale of dashing knights and lovely damsels awaiting rescue. It is not the tale of happy endings, with birdsong and rides into the sunset. It is a tale of light magic and dark, of dragons and monsters, of heroes and villains and the thin line between them. This is the tale of being broken, being made stronger, and then being broken again. This is a story of love of heartbreak so great if feels like your chest has been hollowed out and scraped clean, like you would never feel anything else ever again, and of love so powerful it can make even the gods tremble. This is not a happy story, but it is our story, and it is the only one I know how to tell. ********************** FORSAKEN is the first tale in the Saga of Darkness, following six brothers and sisters who have been named the Chosen of the Gods, destined to fight a great darkness that threatens their world. But evil wears many faces, and it will take the efforts of all- Kryssa, Brannyn, Lanya, Kylee, Alyxen, and Reyce- to survive the harrowing trials to come. ********************** FORSAKEN is a completed novel, being posted as a serial. Books Two through Five in the Saga of Darkness are also complete. Chapters posted every Monday and Friday.Complete![Blackout [a miniseries]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/386359249-256-k926559.jpg)
Blackout [a miniseries]
What does justice turn into when it is denied countless times? Vengeance. Before the original man behind the mask lost himself to the moniker known as an omen of death for all corruption, he was known as Slater LeBlanc. A family man, who though still troubled, tried his best despite it all. After his military career was yanked out from underneath him, and one unrelated, botched execution later that left both of his parents and his baby brother dead, it was too many injustices stacked upon each other. The weight was crippling, and a man trained to survive and be the apex predator did what he knew how to do best... hunt, and kill. The story of Blackout doesn't end with Slater LeBlanc, however. Even after he retires the mask, the ghost lives on. Waging a war against all who stand in their way of getting what they believe is the justice they deserve. * This will be a limited, shorter story. The chapters will be more like their own individual solos, but all still tell the overarching and interconnected story of Blackout. This story will have depictions of graphic violence and major death, if that is triggering to you then you should not read this. Otherwise, buckle up. This tale is an insanely tragic one that chronicles just how the LeBlancs aren't allowed to have any happy endings. *

Rejecting the Alpha
Kylie survived the brutal destruction of her pack only to discover her cold alpha mate was the one responsible for the brutal slaughter of her family and pack mates. She can't forgive and she won't forget. Kylie cooperates with his demands while she searches for a way to free the remaining survivors and herself. Success teaches her just how complicated mate bonds can be and gives her the chance to choose her own fate. "Screw the mate bond. If I went for his throat while he was driving in human form, I might be able to kill him right now, and if I didn't succeed, the resulting accident might. I leapt for the front seat, powerful jaw ready to rip out his throat as he had ripped out my family's to take my revenge. Without even taking his left hand off the wheel, he blocked me by getting his right forearm between my jaws. I bit down as hard as I could, wishing to break his bones and sever the limb. Worse, I felt the tingles of our first contact where violence had connected us. The iron of his blood mingled with the other scents around me." (This is a dark story, but not the stereotypical one where she falls in love with her captor. This is the story of escape from a toxic relationship and finding healthy love.)
