We Who Survived The Sky

They say, although you never really know how reliable 'they' are, that over five million people go missing every year and are never heard from again. Is that worldwide? America only? I never cared enough to pay attention, because as far as I was concerned, it had nothing to do with me. No one I know has ever disappeared, and the odds say that no one I ever know ever will. There's more people who live in New York City than that, and I've never even been to New York City, much less lived there. I don't know anyone who has. Besides. There's so many more pressing matters to think about. I never have the sort of free time I need to think that, really, I'm playing a lottery with crappy odds I didn't ask to play in. Every single person I know is another entry every year, and first prize is ending up among those people that lose someone who never reappears. Sooner or later, there's a lot of people who win the grand prize jackpot they didn't know they were competing for. At seventeen the state of Oregon doesn't think I'm ready for the cut-throat world of scratch tickets and guessing lottery numbers. Turns out there's some lotteries out there that you don't need to play to win. Some people see their numbers on the television, some people have to wrestle them back from enthusiastic shop owners, and then some people take the scenic route from the bus stop and run into a wall of light and weightlessness halfway home. I grew up in a little town in the Pacific Northwest that's never been in any movies, and I hit the jackpot at seventeen years old.

The Witch Princess & The Thorn Prince

Synopsis: The Witch Princess & The Thorn Prince ​One part forbidden magic. Two parts ancient curse. A story where the sweetest recipes are the most dangerous spells. ​For ten years, Elara has lived a quiet life in the valley, hiding her true identity behind the steam of her ovens and the scent of rising yeast. To the villagers, she is simply the girl who bakes the best bread in the kingdom. To herself, she is a failure—a princess who fled her falling throne when she couldn't master the "Fire of the Hearth," the ancestral magic required to protect her people. ​But the darkness she ran from is catching up. The Bitter-Base, a creeping, magical rot that turns food to ash and hearts to ice, is devouring the world's flavor. ​Everything changes when a mountain of stone and needles crashes into her bakery. He is the Cactus Knight, a silent, terrifying guardian cursed to live inside armor of thorns. But when the helmet comes off, he is Sir Kaelen Thorne, a prince from a forgotten desert realm who has been searching for Elara for a century. ​Kaelen carries a secret: the Bitter-Base can only be defeated by a specific, ancient recipe—one that requires the "Fire" Elara suppressed long ago. He needs her magic to break the world’s curse; she needs his strength to survive the journey. ​As they travel toward the heart of the darkness, the prickly walls around Kaelen’s heart begin to bloom, and Elara discovers that her magic isn't broken—it just needed a spark of courage to ignite. In a world gone bitter, they are the only ones who can bring back the light, one recipe at a time.

The Duke's Unwanted Second Wife

**Mature Content** Eilika Wolanski is the eldest daughter of one of Varos’ most respected merchants, but respect has never brought her kindness. A childhood accident left a scar across her cheek, and with it, a cruel label she can never escape. The “Unwanted Woman” of Varos. Mocked in public, pitied in private, and treated like a blemish to be hidden, Eilika grows up learning one painful truth, beauty matters more than character in high society. So when an unexpected marriage proposal arrives from the powerful House of Kingsley, no one believes it is real. The groom is Damian Van Kingsley, the widowed duke of Varos, feared for his cold temperament and admired for his unmatched looks and wealth. Rumors follow him like shadows. He has a secret mistress, a broken heart drowned in alcohol, and worst of all… A son he barely acknowledges. For Eilika, marrying Damian isn’t a dream. It’s the only option left for survival. Damian, once the kingdom’s most desirable nobleman, has been nothing but a hollow man since the death of his first wife. He has abandoned his responsibilities, pushed away his child, and lived with one vow burning in his chest. He will never replace his first wife. To force him back into duty, his mother arranges a second marriage, one he never asked for, and one he refuses to accept. Damian swears he will never touch her , will never look at her and will never treat her as his wife. But Eilika isn’t the greedy noblewoman he expected. She doesn’t ask for his affection. She doesn’t crave his title. She doesn’t even want his love. What Eilika wants… is something far more dangerous. A family. And perhaps that is the very thing Damian has been starving for all along. ~~~~ “This bed will remain cold until your last breath.” Damian’s voice boomed through the dark chamber. Eilika didn’t flinch at his words. Instead she replied gracefully, “I don’t seek love, Duke. You can visit your secret mistress every night… Just don’t come near me.” This marriage was never meant to become real, until the Duke's heart begins to betray its own rules.

The Luna's Dirty Secret

[Dear readers, proceed with caution — this books contains matured content and r-18+ scenes that would drive you the edge. #No_rape] Liora's life had been perfect until her hands crept their way down to her p*ssy, his image vivid in her head. She imagined him fingering her slowly just the exact way he used to. She imagined him slamming into her roughly without mercy. He is her ex. A man who should remain in her past. A man she should have forgotten when she left him to marry the Alpha of their pack. She thought life would be perfect living in luxury just as her parents painted it to be, but what she didn't expect was her life becoming nothing but a duty holder as 'the LUNA'. A repayment of her father's debt. Every night she craved to be touched, to be kissed, to be held, and to be fucked; and all she could think of was HIM. It was all in her imagination until the acclaimed son of her husband who she never knew existed returned home. And the man who had been her figure of pleasure happened to be that son. Caelum Zand... He isn't just ready to be her stepson. He is ready to bring her imagination to life. To be her greatest temptation. To be her forbidden fantasy... And her dirty secret. Not the love interest he once was or maybe that was the lies... With eyes on Liora, Caelum is not just getting into her p*ssy but melting his way back into her heart. For Liora, would it be all about fantasy and satisfaction that her husband had never given her? With lines blurring, ill fate ready to consume them, and a secret big enough to destroy them both, what direction would their story head to? Or would it only remain Liora's dirty secret? THIS IS MY WSA CONTEST ENTRING, I HOPE YOU ALL, DEAR READERS, SUPPORTS THIS BOOK. I AM POURING OUT MY HEART ON THIS BOOKS BECAUSE LIORA SOMEHOW MIRRORED ME. AND YES, AS WE PROCEED, THERE WOULD BE LOADS OF BONUS CHAPTERS TO ENJOY.
