- A WATTPAD FEATURED STORY - The year is 1942. War has been raging across Europe for nearly two years now, and the Nazis, hell-bent on expanding their empire and anti-Semitic views, are winning. Only Britain, the United States, and the Soviet Union are left to fight them, now. For Evelyn McIntyre, the war is just beginning. She's about to be dropped into enemy occupied France with a rough-and-tumble Jewish man by the name of Gene Rosenberg to fight the Nazis. However, they don't fight in long, drawn-out battles in which the enemy they're fighting is clear. They fight a secret war, one that could prove to be just as deadly as the war the rest of the world sees. This is a sample!

Got Ranked #20 in Historical Fiction *^▁^* Espen Norris is a woman wanted by men. More specifically knights in shining armor, a trusty sword strapped to their hips, and a long list of her criminal record in their grasp. Getting caught was one thing. Escaping along with a girl who's the basic foundation of her father's greedy business was another thing. On a mission for revenge, she'll embark on a journey meeting people that will aid her in her thirst for vengeance and her quest for friendship and romance. Except for one problem: she's an outlaw. With lots and lots of grudges held against her. Will things go as smoothly as she though it would be for her and her companions?

Rowan Irvine had always been told she was childish. Her room was lined with stuffed animals and drawn-on walls. But the summer of her senior year Rowan's parents decide to move to a "sweet little town in the middle of nowhere". With a town, new home, and no friends she thought she'd have to leave her childish ways behind and grow up. Be helpful, no more made up creatures or stories or adventures. But "middle of nowhere" meant by an enormous, looming forest. And "sweet" meant the town held more secrets than it's residents. And "no more stories" meant Rowan was about to become part of a story more dark and dangerous than she could have ever imagined. Perhaps more than she ever wanted to imagine.

" I Alpha Austin Knight re .." "Woah, dude who gave you the bragging rights in this relationship?" I interrupt him and he gives me a confused look. "What? " he asks with a dumb expression " Well after all these years, I thought you understood that I don't need any of you or your stupid words. You really think that after what you all did to me all these years, I'd still want you. You think you're the one that's disgusted by this but you're clearly mistaken" I wink at him. He just gives me an incredulous look. " So you still don't understand what I'm trying to say." He shakes his head " Well then let's make it clear, I Rose Walter reject you aka 'Alpha' Austin Knight as my mate." He stands there with a shocked expression as I give him a sympathetic pat on the shoulder and walk away You know all those cliche werewolf novels where the ruthless player alpha who doesn't care about anyone rejects the abused mate. Well now the tables have turned its time to show the 'ruthless' alpha that not everything works according to him. Not every time the damsel in distress will come looking for her hero, so that he could swoop in, save her ass 'and' take all the credit for himself. Maybe this time the damsel in distress wants to be the hero. Maybe this time it will not be the ruthless alpha rejecting the abused mate but the abused mate rejecting the 'ruthless' alpha. So let's find out what happens when the roles are reversed, what happens when the alpha who's known to save the day has no idea WTF is going on and what happens when the so called damsel in distress is maybe not so much in distress after all.

Arelia Davis, heir to Davis Towers Research and Development, has never let her parents' murder stray far from her mind, and now with her uncle's recent murder, dangerous connections are being made.

Preservation or annihilation, it's your choice. A secret worth hiding, a cause worth dying, and a future worth fearing.

But with every step she takes, she finds the organization, or the facility, as they call it, becoming more and more suspicious.

Chaucer, you have a wonderful opportunity here, are you going to take it or not?" Now, I am seriously confused, "Opportunity?" She takes advantage of my befuddled state and shoves the door open. Shit. The corners of her mouth pull up, and it's so unnatural, it takes me a moment to realize she's smiling. Major plastic surgery? Probably. Click. Did she just lock the door? She locked the door! I spring towards the house phone, dusty from years of doing absolutely nothing, so I can call the police. I don't make it. Halfway there, I trip on my own pant-leg and face plant on the floor. The woman steps over me and retrieves the phone. She looks at it as if it's a foreign object, "This won't be necessary. All I want to do is talk to you." For some reason, instead of screaming, I stay silent. She smiles and pulls out a chair from the kitchen table for me to sit on. When I don't sit, she says, "If you want to know what's going on, then sit." I think about it for a moment. She hasn't hurt me yet, and I have to admit, I am quite curious as to what's going on. So, call me stupid, but I sit down. "I am from a space organization that protects civilians from . . . outside threats." *** Beautiful cover made by @mahana258!
