regrets of a dead CEO
This should have been the best day of his life. Instead, Gideon Pierce has never felt more depressed. No pride. No joy. Just a hollow, gnawing emptiness he can't outrun. The promotion to CEO of CE Incorporation was everything he worked for - power, prestige, proof that he had won in life. So he does what everyone does. He celebrates, burries the void in alcohol, boosts his ego by buying a fancy car. For a moment he feels larger than life. Until one reckless decision shatters everything he built. A drunk drive. A moment of arrogance. A silent challenge to death itself. A violent crash with dire consequences. Gideon crawls from the wreckage, furious at the inconvenience and the ruin of his shiny new toy. After a good night sleep, he's convinced he's escaped with nothing but a drenched suit and the threat of pneumonia as his first day as CEO. But something happened in that riverbank. Something unseen. Something patient. His world begins to shift. Reality slips at the edges. And he slowly realizes something happened in those murky water. What do you do when you lose control over your own existence? And how do you take it back when the cost is your soul? Regrets of a Dead CEO is a haunting psychological descent into guilt, consequence, and the thin line between redemption and damnation - where facing your demons may be the only way to survive them... or the final step toward becoming one.Complete
Family Comes First
Being alone? Check. Being afraid? Check. Being abused? Check times 3. Honestly, my life wasn't this bad before, not until I ended in foster care... SIKE! My life was always bad. From the moment I was born, I lived with an abusive father who blamed me for my mother's death, and even I couldn't disagree with him. Here are a few questions I am constantly asked: 'Do I do well in school?' No, are you kidding me? The only subject I'm good at is Visual Arts. 'Do I have a kind and caring family?' No, I don't think I do. 'Do I have anyone who cares about me?' No, I'm a loner and socially awkward. 'Do I have privileges?' No, if you haven't understood the message yet, I live in an abusive household. Now, you might ask if there are any questions the answer is yes. I'll give you some. 'Do I want to die?' Yes, I sometimes do. 'Do I feel alone in this world?' Yes, always. 'Do I get a beating every day?' Yes. *** This is Amara Williams, a 13 year-old with average grades and no friends. What happens when her only guardian, her dad, is dead? What happens when she finds out that she has five older brothers who are not only strict and demanding, but also protective assholes? More importantly, what happens when she finds out that she was taught lies from the moment she was born?

The Fake Smile He Wears
No Ships! i do be cringing at this very hard but I'll keep it up for y'all. note that the quality is very questionable and like most people i've reflected on the cringiness <3 The Ancients saw many of their children and grandchildren suffering alone, no one noticing the other's pain. The fake mask, the 'happy' countries wore. The secrets they all hid. The Ancients couldn't let this just happen, they came up with a plan. America was the unfortunate victim and test subject. America is the happy, joyful, always smiling, and loud country, but what if everything they know about him is a lie? A mask no one could see through. The mask no one tried to look through. There was a lot they didn't know about him. A lot he hid from them. A lot he kept inside his cracking heart. Secrets will be spilled, and skeletons will come out of the closet. Feelings kept inside for so long, will come out. The sides of America they never knew of will come out today. The mask will come off today. The mask that's been worn for so long. Will he be saved? What happened to America? Who is America really? How many lies have been told? How many hearts will be broken? Did they ever know America at all? How many friendships will be built, and how many destroyed? How long has America deceived them all? How will they see America now? Will America come out of this better or worse? Was doing all of this right? Only time will tell. WARNING⚠️⚠️⚠️: Mentions of suicide, eating disorders, self harm, other mental disorders, and depression. If you are suffering from any of these things please get help. I know someone out there cares for you, if you can't find someone who cares for you, I do, so please get help. Don't ever do any of this stuff. If you don't like this stuff or if it bothers you please don't read it, if not continue, you have been warned. Some stuff may be really inaccurate and I don't mean to offend anyone. Best rank Alfred Jones #1 Cover picture isn't mine, please don't sUe mEComplete

America's little secret [1]
America, the missing personification of the world of nations. Finding out about the personification at a gala no less....... who would of guessed America had a personification, and a woman one at that. Imagine the surprise on the nations faces at finding out the World Superpower is a female personification! It isn't that woman don't exist but most thought it would be male! [So hi again, probably won't post this ever but if I do HI! I've been on a small writing craze along with reading craze about America not having a personification so why not join 'em? Also, this is basically a crossover between Countryhumans and Hetalia! Hetalia names belong to their creators unless mentioned, state names belong to me and Lectwist's! *This is a series story! Two more will be made unless I change my mind and make more! It's a trilogy currently. Book one: You are here! Book two: "America's little past [2]" Book three: -PENDING-* For those that like my OC Lectwist Island, she'll be in this story but less present as it'll focus more on America and the other countries instead of home. Also her and America didn't marry until the Great Depression here just so I don't confuse you (and myself) as I write this- *HEAVILY inspired by "Mother Amelia" cover art is mine! Sorry for this but I'm using Hetalia so be prepared for confusion if you don't know it! Sorry again-! 1st: Femamerica (October 12, 2024)]Complete
