After moving to Italy from Miami-Dade County, Lilia Moretti is known as the sister of the seven Moretti brothers. She didn't know they existed, but she was ready to get away from her own battles; abuse, betrayal, and the aching loneliness of her abusive mother. But while her brothers fight to protect the family name and uphold the Mafia, they needed to protect Lilia from all the dangers that come with it. Lilia Moretti doesn't speak of what happens at home. She can't. So she swims-every morning, every evening-into the waves that never ask her questions. Her seven brothers call her Sorellina, their little sister, fragile and sweet. But they don't see what the ocean sees: a girl slowly unraveling beneath the surface. In the stillness of the shore and the silence of the sea, Lilia holds onto her last breath of freedom. But as truths begin to rise like tides, the waves may carry more than just secrets-they might bring the Moretti family to its knees. Seven brothers. One sister. A love they couldn't speak-and a pain they never saw coming.

Viktor didn't expect to be abducted by aliens when he went to school one morning, and he certainly didn't expect to be thrown into the alien equivalent of a dog-fighting ring, either. But when fighting for his life quickly becomes his routine, will he be able to muster up the strength to break that mold? Especially when the fate of humanity rests on his shoulders? *** The Vokkrus, a warrior alien species, go to Earth with the intention to 'rescue' the human species from their dying planet. The catch is that they believe humans to be nonsentient and incapable of intelligent thought. They are treated as nothing more than the common animal. They are a commodity, something to fawn over and ogle at. Humanity's strength and stamina are nearly unrivaled on this new planet, and when Viktor is taken to an alien fighting ring, he quickly dominates the competition. Mercy has no place in the arena. When Viktor is adopted by the leader of the Vokkrus, an intimidating alien whose intentions are unclear, he is forced to shed his wariness and convince the alien king to save humanity from his accidental oppression. *** Please don't advertise other stories in the comments!

It's been almost a hundred years since Earth's civilizations fell, leaving only ruins and memories. Long before the collapse, they began taking humans, but now, everyone knows who they are and they fear them. The few who manage to return from their captivity tell stories of how these creatures treat humans like animals or children, tending to them like pets or slaves. Most survivors live in hidden cities, avoiding the ancient ruined cities at all costs. But not Jace and his crew. As a group of Stray Humans, they've made the decaying cities their home, roaming the forgotten streets, never staying in one place for long, and bringing all their skills to the table. They are a family, working together to make sure those things, Aliens, never take another human as long as they are near. When the aliens of A.C.R. (Animal Care and Rescue) find a new group of humans wandering the ruins of a large city, they think it will be an easy capture. But they soon learn that these particular humans have more willpower than most. They dodge every trap, disappear around every bend, and even manage to take some of the already captured humans with them. The aliens pity these "little creatures"-they just don't want to leave their home, but Earth is falling apart at the seams, and they are determined to take the stubborn little humans to the safety of one of the mother planets. No matter the cost. Warning - This story may have -Self harm -Rape -Abuse -Suicidal thoughts and actions -Violence and gore -Uncomfortable scenes (If this isn't your first alien pet book, you know what I'm talking about)

But when your entire life has been built on vigilance and fear, is it even possible to rest? Originally posted on AO3 by Drogo06.

Most Hunters die once. Elias Vargas keeps coming back. At 19, Elias is one of Paradise Academy's most promising Hunter students. Quiet. Efficient. Difficult to kill. Command calls him Black Spear, a weapon forged for the things that wait beyond the edge of the world. Paradise Academy calls him a student. Elias isn't sure either of them are right. When a mission ends with another impossible death and an even more impossible return, questions begin following him back to campus. Questions about where he was, why he disappeared, and about the things Command would rather remain buried. The problem is that some truths are dangerous to speak. And some are impossible. As friendships deepen and old loyalties begin to crack, Elias finds himself caught between the person everyone needs him to be and the person he's no longer sure he's allowed to become. Because survival has a cost. Because ghosts don't come back unchanged. And because the road he's been walking for years is heading toward something far worse than death. Silence is better than screaming. Until silence becomes the thing that's killing you.

The world ended less than just a century ago. It's only been seventy-five years since the world was torn apart by nuclear war and pandemics.

At only fifteen, all students must take a test to determine their future. It will decide their new careers, salary, and home. The only issue is, the system is fully biased.

If she's lucky, she'll be able to take her sister and they can both ditch their deadbeat father for a better life. Then again, she's stuck at the bottom of the food chain in Prospect Seven. Education is a miracle for people living there, so she has to take what she can get. At the same time, she can't survive two more weeks. Not only does she have the constant threat of infection looming over her, now she has a strange boy in her proximity. He's clearly rich, well-educated, and holding a possibly dangerous secret. Why is he here, really, and what does he want? And when she thought it couldn't get worse, the sky rains fire. Once again, the apocalypse has begun. Ashley and a fragmented group of eight survivors attempt a desperate escape to their Capitol city, Andromeda. As this rate, anyone could have ulterior motives, and anyone could be infected.
