[A Psycho Thriller set in the French Revolution]
Paris, 1793
It is a time when people's hearts are tainted in ghastly hues of red and black, a time when people rage and roar as the wheels of Revolution turn at a dizzying speed.
Philippe Fitzgerald is thrown out of the French Army after committing a crime that everyone deems unspeakable. When he returns to Paris--his hometown-- to find even the last drops of its magnificence squeezed out by the Revolution, he struggles to make his way through the dredges of poverty. It is a time when the lowest rungs of the economic ladder bear the brunt of political tension and legislative inadequacies.
It is then that he forges a deep bond of friendship with noblewoman Marie d'Aramitz, who has been ostracized by her people due to their fear of a powerful man who is hunting her down to salvage the pitiful remains of his family name.
Together, in a country that smothers the fire before it is a spark, they try to set the people ablaze.

They Made Us Monsters
In a world ruled by disease, fear, and government control, survival is no longer a choice-it's a rebellion. After a virus devastates the population, the U.S. government uses the crisis to seize control, turning teenagers into test subjects in brutal experiments meant to create super-soldiers. Those who are captured vanish into labs where their memories are wiped, their bodies are altered, and their identities are erased. Those who escape are left with scars-and the crushing guilt of the ones they couldn't save. Artemis Cross was never supposed to be a leader. But when she's captured and stripped of everything she knows, she becomes Subject 88, forced into a nightmare of pain, injections, and psychological warfare. Her mind begins to fracture-but one memory refuses to die: Z, the boy who once held her together, the boy she can't forget no matter how deep they dig into her brain. Outside the walls, Z is haunted by her absence. He can't eat, sleep, or breathe without seeing her face. As he and a fractured group of survivors drive through a collapsing America-riddled with graffiti, riots, and people fighting to the death over scraps-Z promises he'll find Artemis, even if he has to tear the system down piece by piece. But the deeper they get into the truth, the more twisted it becomes. Friends begin to betray each other. Love starts to fracture. And the world they thought they knew is far more dangerous than they ever imagined. Because this isn't just about surviving the system anymore. It's about burning it to the ground.Complete
HIS TO TAKE
"Please, Mitchell!" She yelled. Not loud enough. Her voice trapped inside of her. All she wanted was one thing - to be with her child. He had taken away that too. He was punishing her for no reasons. The wounds only grew deeper as she thought that it would have been better if he had killed her that day. Her thoughts were confusing to herself. The voices in her head. The motherhood she felt for the first time, sticking her child to her chest so gently until her child slept. All of that, she never wanted but grew to like it eventually. "Maybe you being away from her will teach you how to behave." His voice louder than her. He walked away locking the door. Leaving her behind with her nightmare. She never wanted this, yet she had to do it for the sake of living. Now she wishes she had never came across him that night. ___________________________________ After being with her abusive father, he sells her to a psychopath for money.

Fighting Animals
πWattpad's 1st and Only #Neo-Noir + #Multimedia Story π '18 Earnesty Writer Awards Hall of Fame π₯1st Place - '18 Shining Star Awards - Action π₯1st Place - '18 Ohana Awards - Action "The Brotherhood separates humans from the animals, athletes from the sociopaths. They're in the shadows, in every gym, dojo, mat, ring, and octagon. They defend the sacred art of combat, ensuring fighters don't use their skills to exploit the weak. Or worse, to kill." --- Conner is a former U.S. Army pilot who thinks he's too volatile to be protective. Delilah is a Pakistani-American writer who thinks she's too different to be trusted. Expelled from his fight gym, Conner is hired as Delilah's private security by her superhero-movie-star boyfriend JR. But Conner yearns to fight again, if only The Brotherhood would absolve him for yielding to The Darkness. Try as he might, Conner's reserved Texan demeanor is no match for a brown-eyed Brooklyn girl who talks too much... even if, she too, battles The Darkness. And JR, desperate to be an off-screen hero, may be involved in something much darker. But when bigotry terrorizes Los Angeles, who will confront The Darkness in a city ripe with summer blockbusters and barren of heroes? Who makes up The Brotherhood? And what, if anything, elevates us above the animals? *Featuring music from nine iconic albums of '01-'02 and 300+ noir aesthetic GIFs. [[word count: 50,000-60,000 words]] Copyright Β© 2018 Lola Dom.

Psychological Horror and Slow-burn Dark Romance. 18+ --------------------------- It's been five years since that fateful Friday night. I remember it like it was yesterday. The night I was kidnapped.

He rewrote the rules of pain, of fear - and then, somehow, of love. If you'd told me I'd fall for the man who ruined my life, I would've laughed in your face. But reality doesn't always follow logic. He's given me this journal and I'm going to write my story. This is my truth. My confession. My war cry. Because what he did to me deserves to be known. --------------------------- THIS BOOK CONTAINS TRAUMATIC CONTENT!

His sister's best friend had captured his heart, and he was consumed by his obsession for her and now, he knows he would never be able to let her go because she belongs with him." β’ β§ β’ There's a kind of love that feels like sunlight - warm, gentle, safe. And then... there's his. It's not cruel. It's not loud. It's something far more dangerous - quiet, calculated, all-consuming. He was my best friend's brother. The man I was never supposed to notice. He watched from the shadows, memorizing me without ever needing a single word. I never really knew his name... but he knew everything about me. My fears. My patterns. My dreams. Even the parts I hadn't yet discovered myself. He's always been there, just a step behind-waiting, watching, wanting. And now, he's no longer waiting. He calls it love. I don't know what to call it, only that it pulls me in like gravity - unavoidable, inescapable. There's safety in his arms, yet danger in his silence. Gentleness in his touch, yet fire in his gaze. And somewhere in the tension between fear and longing, I find myself unraveling. Because the scariest part of being wanted like this... Is realizing you might want them back.Complete
