    In a world where Bruce Wayne is miraculously pregnant with Clark Kent's child, their perfect future is shattered when the Joker causes a horrific tragedy. Driven mad by grief, Clark kills Joker and seizes control of the planet, forging a global "Regime" to eliminate all chaos and suffering. He imprisons a broken Bruce in the Fortress of Solitude, believing his tyrannical peace is the ultimate act of love. This story is both intense and the saddest one I've uploaded in my opinion, inspired by the Injustice timeline but with the Superbat twist and this time things are different.

    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

I've always been a grumpy, anti-social kid, but losing my mother made me angrier with the world. So when I run into another student at my new school, I don't stop myself from opening my mouth to tell him off. However what I didn't know was that this guy is the feared Killian Reed; A guy no one wants to get on his bad side. And for a moment, seconds after being shoved into the lockers by him, I was certain Killian was going to make my life a living hell. Then one day, he shocks me when he stops a couple of guys from hitting me. At first I don't think there's much to it. But then I start to suspect there's more to Killian; A secret that has something to do with me. All of a sudden, I find myself dealing with strange, dangerous occurrences, and with Killian who somehow always seems to be there to safely get me out of them. *Please check out the chapter 'Before you read' for a list of TW*

    Sixteen-year-old Holly O'Toole lives for football. It's the only thing that still makes sense after losing her mum, brother, and sister in a car crash.

The bottle took him away long before Holly was ready to lose him too. Left to look after herself in a quiet North London flat, Holly drags herself to school she hates, where her ADHD and anxiety make every day a battle. The only person keeping her afloat is Eva, her best friend who refuses to give up on her. Holly's about to learn that sometimes, chasing the light means facing your darkest shadows first.

    Remnant follows nineteen-year-old Cyrus as he returns to the rural town of Sacred Springs to bury his mother after her sudden death. What should be a brief visit becomes something far heavier as memories he's spent years avoiding rise to the surface: his father's notorious suicide, the string of unsolved child murders that destroyed his family, and the brother he lost long before he understood what loss meant. But Sacred Springs is a place where the past never sleeps. As Cyrus reconnects with friends he once knew and walks the roads he hoped to forget, he begins to sense that something is quietly shifting in the shadows of the town, and within himself. Old secrets are stirring. The truth is waking. And Cyrus may not be ready for what still remembers him.

    I hate secrets. And I hate drama. But somehow, I stumbled into relationships with two girls, each one hiding something big from me. Bree is beautiful and fit. Captain of the cheerleaders and homecoming queen. She's every guy's dream, every guy but me that is. I didn't really intend to date her, but things just have a way of taking on a life of their own. Then there's Peyton, who drives me crazy. She's a teammate, for God's sake. A football player with a shaved head who disguised herself as a dude to make varsity. She's tough and independent, a smartass with a big chip on her shoulder. But she's more than that--her beauty is wild and untamed. She glows electric, and I'm drawn to that electricity like lightning to a rod. So, I find myself in a bit of a bind--a love triangle with a cheerleader and a football player--and I have a feeling that their secrets just might alter the course of my life forever.
