"This isn't supposed to happen."
Four factions, each based on a different element--Ember for fire, Aquarius for water, Eden for earth, and Aurea for air--rose from the ashes of the old world, torn apart by war, and created a new country, Terra. The people living within them became adapted to and dependent on each specific element as a result of the radiation remains from the nuclear weapons.
But for some, it evolved some further. They adapted powers, the ability to wield the elements once they reach the age of eighteen. These people are called Gifteds.
Delta is a Gifted from Aquarius, just receiving her powers. But when something unexpected and completely unbelievable happens, she is suddenly the cause of the first war in over two hundred years. Forced to give up everything she loves to satisfy the wants of the warring factions, what does she do? Marry Ash, the Ember that has been arranged for her, or resist and fight for her love for Kai, who she's known since birth? Surrender to how the factions want her to live, or fight for her freedom?

Red Moon Princess
In a world where every royalty child is born with magical powers, depending on its kingdom, unexpected thing occur as a powerless princess is born in the ruling dynasty. The Sirius Bloodline of the moonlands or as one would like to call it 'Lunalurse'. Time passes and Maria soon turns seven and still doesn't awaken her gift.

And if she does what would it mean for her, the realms and everyone else? And what if her long-awaited gift is something no one has seen coming, not even her? And what if this power of hers releases unknown and unwanted guests some the world would have been a better place without and what if she's all to blame? And what if whilst performing her duty of protecting the realms, she becomes aware of the feelings her best friend Ashton harbors for her, knowing her cousin has taken a liking to him for years? Rowan realizes he has fallen in love with her cousin, as well as Zephyr who has fallen for Maria. She finds herself in a turmoil of longing and raw emotions where she has to choose between love or performing her duty. Read it all as it takes place right before your eyes. It's never too late to hop onto the track of fantasies "I might be the princess of the moon, but I can also be the bringer of your doom." ----- All the characters, kingdoms, names, and places are my ideas. Any resemblance to real ones is purely coincidental. The story contains some violence and some explicit scenes of gore, but nothing too bloody or disgusting. Keep in mind, that this is the first book I've ever written, and English isn't my first language. Any mistakes or twists of words are unintentional. I'd do better than this in the future so 🐻 with me.Complete
The Dark Side of the Moon
"Fuck, baby. You can't say things like that to me. I want to, also. Trust me." His hand snakes down my body until he enters two of his fingers into my wet center. I can only moan in response. "However," he kisses my neck possessively, finding the right spot to drive me crazy. "I need to build you up to that." He pushes his fingers in and out of me, hitting deeper and deeper as his strokes become longer and harder and faster. "You feel that? My fingers deep in your pussy that's dripping for me?" He licks the side of my neck as my breaths come out in short pants. "My dick is going to stretch you out so much more. When I finally fuck you, you're going to be sore for days. And you're going to love it." ---------- Thea Brooks, an 18-year-old college student, lives her life by a schedule.

Soul
"In a world ruled by power and tyranny, peace is a distant dream.

All that remained were fleeting drops of water and the faintest hope that the fires would one day cease. Perhaps you were gifted, your powers beyond what was ever expected, but power isn't just strength-it's a threat. Years passed, and you grew to despise everyone and everything. In rage and vengeance, you found a twisted kind of salvation. Amidst the chaos, you found home with someone you've picked up while desperately trying to escape the chains of fate. And though agony shaped my path, I never wavered from my purpose. Through hell and blood, I built my name and wealth, offering others a chance for redemption, for lives once broken like my own. Now, after all this time, I've prepared to fulfill the final task of my life. Many will weep, blood will stain the earth, but certainly, they will pay for stealing my childhood. - Anastas

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."
