AGENT W | ✓ by Minna_A2

❝ A sniper doesn't always need a partner, they just need someone to give the signal. ❞ Going solo gave you a lot to ponder on, especially given a mission that isolated you from your daily life of sniping up dozens of armed agents per hour. A change to braids and glasses wouldn't be too bad for one mission. Just follow the girl, keep an eye on the girl, and continue for two years. Simple. Throw in assassins? Simple. Throw in traitors? Simple. Throw in a baby? Simple. Throw in poison? Simple. Throw in intruders? Simple. Throw in love? E R R O R . Check twice before messing with the quiet and the nerds. Because the nerds will become future hackers, and the quiet will become undercover agents. ❝ Game over. ❞ _ ★ Previously Featured on Wattpad's Official ROMANCE Account | Dangerous Love ★ [ Highest Rank #1 in Action - 4:01:18 ] [ Highest Rank #1 in Action - 3:25:18 ] [ Highest Rank #1 in Action - 3:19:18 ] ♕ ♡ [ Highest Rank #1 in Action - 2:25:18 ] [ #3 in Action - 2:24:18 ] [ #4 in Action - 2:23:18 ] [ #5 in Action - 2:21:18 ] [ #6 in Action - 2:19:18 ] [ #7 in Action - 2:18:18 ] [ #8 in Action - 2:16:18 ] [ #9 in Action - 2:15:18 ] [ #11 in Action - 2:12:18 ] [ #12 in Action - 2:09:18 ] [ #13 in Action - 2:07:18 ] [ #24 in Action - 2:04:18 ] [ #25 in Action - 2:01:18 ] [ #39 in Action - 1:30:18 ] [ #47 in Action - 1:29:18 ] [ #56 in Action - 1:13:18 ] [ #119 in Action - 1:12:18 ] [ #148 in Action - 8:21:17 ] _ - Credits to @lilsahun for the wonderful cover - _ 07.01.17 - 06.18.18 // unedited version //

The Air Out Of [Wattys2018 shortlist] by sophvergeletti

*wattys 2018 shortlist* *writer's awards sci-fi winner* It all started with an accident. Through vast consolidation begets a single empire bordering on the mere idea of war with an enemy threatening to destroy its entire existence, starting from the inside. Many call it tyranny, others, vengeful menace, but it's taking them down. One by one. A series of events follow, including a spy, a plan destined to fail and a desperate offer that puts everything on the line. She wasn't what they were hoping for. But they take what they can get. Once rejected by the place they called home, five estranged teens jump at the opportunity for an escape. Thrust into an unknown underwater society at random, it's a gamble for life and death, win or lose. Fast forward to friendship, rivalry, loyalty, borderline sorcery, and a second home that'll change their lives as they know it. But as the days grow by, and the game of cat and mouse breaks its final straw, blending in a world not meant for them is not as easy as it seems. Especially when you try to save a colony whilst saving yourself. *this story is/will be rewriting. [minimal changes] The plot will generally be the same, I'm just removing some plot holes and grammatical inconsistencies* #974 dysotopian - out of 1.8k stories #442 science fiction - out of 5.9k stories

HMS Valediction by LLMontez

[Book 2 of the ARC10 Trilogy] Rampant addictions, psychotic breakdowns, and threats of mutiny keep Commander Janika Lorn up all night. Transporting two-thousand souls safely from a destroyed Earth to a new habitat aboard the refugee ship ARC10 has been a special kind of hell - especially while also hiding her illegal pregnancy from her commanding officer. She wonders if they should turn around and take their chances in the crumbling underground bunker city they abandoned, even with the hostile invading aliens still patrolling the sky. She wonders if they're capable of surviving the rest of the journey. Because it seems like her troubles couldn't get any worse, and they've only been in space for three months. As usual, Commander Janika Lorn is wrong. When she finally hits an all-time low in the confines of an alien prison, a botched rescue operation puts her life in the black-gloved hands of Captain Shin-Hyun Moon of the HMS Valediction - a notorious vagrant and patchwork monster who was stitched together with the eclectic skins of the galaxy. Despite being instant enemies, Lorn and Moon are forced to work together to salvage their separate missions that have gone totally awry. HMS Valediction is the sequel to 2017 Watty winner ARC10, the second installation of the ARC10 trilogy. Cover art by the enormously talented @FayLane

Starry Eyed | Will Robinson by coolbananax

Y/N L/N is of the hundreds of residents of the mothership from Earth, the Resolute, and she descends to space with her mother and father after passing a survival test to see if she were eligible to be a part of the best of the best. After a few months of being aboard the Resolute, a mysterious breach sends parts of the crew flying off into an emergency evacuation onto an unknown planet quite similar to Earth, where the remaining of the Resolute try for survival, including Y/N and a close friend of hers. Once they get used to the planet, the crew brainstorms a way to get out while Y/N explores the outdoors. She meets a fellow crew mate, Will Robinson, and embarks in a journey with his family and an alien robot to get back to the mothership. This mysterious alien robot was quite the shocker, and to make it worse, nobody else trusts the robot enough to let it partake in helping to save them all. Y/N L/N and Will Robinson will have to team up to help the alien robot fit in with their community without causing a panic so they can safely get back to their ship. What adventures will they come across on the way? ~~~ ‼️I WROTE THIS BOOK IN FIFTH GRADE ITS GONNA BE A LITTLE SHITTY ALRIGHT‼️

The Watcher [Alien Nation #1] by CarinaHelix

[#WATTYS2018 LONGLIST] On Earth, a conspiracy theorist stumbles across the wreckage of a spacecraft. There are two corpses in strange uniforms. One is an alien - the other is not. In space, a young human agent watches in horror as the images are beamed around the world, putting the entire project to integrate humanity into the Commonwealth of Orion at risk. And across the darkness between stars, an alien armada gathers its forces, and aims them right at Earth. Deep in a cave on a remote island lies the key to everything; a small beacon containing the directions to the Hub, the crossroads of the Commonwealth. If the aliens find it and use it to access the Commonwealth's complex network of Starbridges linking its worlds together, the rest of the galaxy will be at their fingertips. Only one person knows where the beacon lies... ...for now.

Caffeine Rush (Avengers Fanfic) by TheDragonWitch22

Jesse Sharpe is just a normal barista working at a hole-in-the-wall coffeeshop, at least that's what it looks like on the outside. Her supernatural speed sets her apart, though no one would know that because, three years ago, she didn't exist in this world. Three years ago, she broke through the dimensional barrier between her universe and this one, and decided to stick around when she discovered the most delightful invention in the multiverse; coffee. Luckily, there's one other person in the city who shares her immense love of caffeine. Tony Stark. With his offer, becoming the Avengers' Barista is easier than expect, but that made keeping her inherited speed from them practically impossible. Especially while practically living under their roof and with a certain green eyed god of mischief right next door. A/N: though set in the same universe as my other work, The Archangel, it is not necessary to read The Archangel to understand the events of this book (but Easter eggs for those that do) P.S. I'm trying to make my version of a speedster as accurate as can be expected with a reasonable amount of math and googling and I'm using my own CW inspired multiverse lore

Love And Lattes [DISCONTINUED] by begumsuaksu

"I have a question... Why do you work here? Isn't it hard to handle work and school at the same time?" I asked. He chuckled. "I accidentally chucked Wesley's PlayStation out of the window so I err... Kinda have to work for a few weeks to replace it." I laughed. "Accidentally?" "Actually, I did it to get back at him for dropping my phone into a bowl of soup, but don't tell him that," Levi whispered to me. ~ Every other day Alyssa ends up at Starbucks ordering her weekly latte. It's the same old situation every week, except this week there is a new barista at the till. A ridiculously good looking barista, may I add. Alyssa and Levi speak to each other every week and begin to get to know one another: there will be love, and there will be lattes.

Fall in Love in a Coffee Shop by twistedmetalalliance

18+ warning What's not to love about a coffee shop? Fresh roasted beans, fluffy pastries, and a girl looking for the love of her life. Not just her, but her two best friends get thrown into a loop when 3 stunning cops decide this will be their new daily ritual...Let's begin with Serenity.... To my readers: This is the first story I have written in many years. This will also be the first time I have also written a story with multiple character romances. The series is inspired by the song by Landon Pigg and a dream I had. In addition I am creating this while in nursing school...so it's a little rough. *I should be studying* This story is purely fictional, characters and names of characters, any relation to real life people is purely coincidental. This entire story is based off a dream and inspired by a song. These characters are of my own creation, and I am entitled to their likeness and copyright. This story is property of VOA productions. Enjoy! ~*VOA Productions 2019.*~ Ranking: #1 in cops 8/20/19
