The Enigma Protocol: No Brother of Mine (Book 1)
Two estranged brothers. One ancient secret. And nowhere to run, not from Enigma, and not from each other. But history won't hand you the truth. You'll have to piece it together yourself. Ask questions. The story might answer back. *** Teorin is close to uncovering the truth behind his father's disappearance, until a stolen drive puts him in the crosshairs of the one person he can't outrun: the brother who left him behind. Marcus walked away to protect his family. Now an old ally drags him back into his brother's orbit, forcing a choice: expose the truth, seek revenge, or protect the brother he thought he'd already lost. In a world scarred by solar storms, power isn't just political, it's biological. People are born with affinities-heat, memory, pressure, time-and someone in the shadows is erasing anyone who digs too deep. 📖 Told through prose, in world documents, and comment threads (yes, the actual comments). Each voice carries its own style, from clipped restraint to dramatic flair. The Enigma Protocol isn't just a story; it's a reconstruction. You'll have to decide where the truth lies. A slow-burn science-fantasy epic for fans of The Expanse, Mistborn, and Annihilation-where found family and fractured loyalties collide with ancient mysteries. 💬 Take part if you want. Ask. Dig. Connect the dots. The story gives as much as you do. ⚠️ Warning: Characters may break containment (yes, they might reply to you). Meet your host on the "Welcome Page"-an optional in-universe introduction. Also available on Royal Road.

Two Worlds, Book 1
🏆Amby Awards Round 2 Qualifier 2025🏆 🏆NanoWatts Sci-fi Winner 2025🏆 📣Watthubcommunity Recommended📣 The end of the world didn't happen overnight; It happened quietly, and no one could've stopped it. Heartfelt, Massachusetts, was once a loving place filled with lovely people. But that all changed when The Veil broke out. For a group of college students, the once bustling halls of Heartfelt College became a fortress and a prison. The story of Two Worlds, Book 1 runs through the Found Family in a Post Apocalyptic scene. It is the first instalment of an ongoing series. Two Worlds does not start like the traditional way of any zombie apocalypse story where you're hit directly into the thick of things. You'd instead get to see how the world actually changes before, during, and after. This story is not just about survival, it's about holding onto what makes them human in a world that has lost all semblance of normality. But as their world narrows and the threat closes in, the question remains: How long can they endure?
