** WATTYS 2018 WINNER **
Not one person in the history of the world ever said being Deathsworn was an easy thing. Fun, sometimes, and completely your fault, but never easy. You have one rule that you obey, unless, of course, you want to die. 

Your life is your list, your list is your life. 

For the Gallowmen, their journey as Deathsworn has seen them travel the broken realm of Oblivia. From Green Country to the Island Kingdoms, from Sand Country to the Scavania. Death follows where they go, their list gets shorter, and the dream of life becomes half-real. 

It would be fine if things were that simple. But curious things are happening in the west and the Burned Priests are charged with confronting the Empire's greatest threats. Where they point, the Deathsworn must go. 

They'll do their job, ask no questions, and get their freedom. Or they'll die trying. 

*Deathsworn is a spin-off story from a much larger trilogy I'm currently writing. Comments/reviews/feedback would be greatly appreciated wherever possible. Volume I of IV is COMPLETE ... Enjoy.

51 parts Complete Mature
[ FIRST DRAFT • NOT EDITED • REPUBLISHED FOR A LIMITED PERIOD] #2 in wattsy2019 #2 in fuckedup #3 in twistedfairytale #5 in angelsanddemons #19 in fuckedup #45 in mystery-thriller #69 in toxic #285 in romance NOTE: This book is PHASE 1 of OUR BEAUTIFUL TRILOGY. I'd recommend you not to judge or come to a conclusion just on the basis of the first book. The story of RAGHAV and SIA ( my protagonists) get a twist in the first, followed by in the second, then in the third book respectively. We're all bad in someone's story ~anonymous Raghav Chaudhari and Sia Mathur, the top two corporate law students of the advanced batch, had fallen in love with their hate right from the first day of Freshman year. But nobody knows the reason behind their unmistakable rivalry. Not even their circle of friends that they reluctantly share. The only thing that stops them from murdering each other is the respect for their profession. Now, the final year's fest and their frustrated friends make them compromise into being "friends till the fest." Accepting the pact forced upon them, they start spending time together, they discover how their families are related and slowly the domino of lies and dirty games starts falling down one by one. But this is only the beginning of their royally fuckedup lives together. IT'S A TWISTED FAIRYTALE! Grab your seatbelts and get ready to set on a journey of how two strangers fell in love with their hate for each other. Initially, this may come off as a typical badboy romance but as you read more of the trilogy, you'll see that there's so much more than what you're thinking at this moment. I wish I could tell you everything that's stored in my books to make you thrilled but I can't because there's literally so much more to tell. So please be patient enough while reading and let's meet at the end of the trilogy. I'm hoping to see you there ;) DO NOT COPY ANY PART OF THE BOOK ❌ STRICTLY PROHIBITED!

||Book 2, please read Dauntless Initiate, before reading this one. This book picks up exactly where the other one left off for Tempest|| ||I own nothing except for Tempest, all of her plotlines, and some very minor characters that won't appear very often.|| ||Set in The Son by Veronica Roth, and takes place two years or so, before the book Divergent begins.|| ||There will be some potentially triggering topics, such as underaged drinking, swearing, mentions of physical and mental abuse. You have been warned|| Tempest has officially made it into Dauntless and has left her old life, old identity, and former faction of Abnegation behind her. She has made a friend or two among the Dauntless and although she still definitely prefers to always be able to walk alone at the best of times it is clear that she has begun to slowly open up. Even if it ended up being to one of the people that used to be one of the members of the faction, that she was raised to hate, with every bone in her body. When she gets visited in her quiet apartment by Max, one of the five Dauntless leaders, she gets an offer that she was shocked to hear. Because even if she had been ranked first... who would have ever thought, that the willowy, clearly under-fed girl from Abnegation, could ever become a candidate for any faction leadership position? Let alone the faction that was mainly only just formed to protect the city around them, from any and all threats? ||Follows the events of 'The Son' by Veronica Roth and my own plotlines entirely after that. Tempest is my main character.|| ||Dauntless Series|| |Book 1: Dauntless Initiate| |Book 2: Dauntless Member| |Book 3: Dauntless Leader|

Gamleon's Tail    ~ Welcome to the worlds of :  Within ~ by Cicada3300
17 parts Ongoing Mature
I wrote this for EVERYONE. To appeal to anyone that reads ANY genre. It combines almost all of them. It's an introduction to the Worlds of Within universe. When you get to the action parts (which doesn't take long) you should be invested enough to want to unravel the mysteries and enjoy its intrigue... The flood is raging. A terrifying, heartless mountain of water, swallowing the world . The tunnel networks? Of course, that won't save them. The forests? Like leaves in a breeze. The lookout towers and trade hubs? Gone. Washed clean. Every home, every last trace of what once was. Gamleon is the first to see it ... and survive. His mind is near collapse, his heart broken. He runs. What would YOU do? What could anyone do? Some scrape by in a mythological setting of beasts and medieval men. Cruel, literally cold-blooded Gorgon hordes enforce an absolute rule slithering in the tunnels beneath the feet of every kingdom. There is an isolated, forgotten place. A cavern, magnificent and vast, older than civilization. A place where the weird and the unwanted might ride out this cataclysm if Gamleon can stay alive long enough to get them there.. In this special place, something incredible, cut off from the outside, lurks. Something... you won't be ready for or ever expect. Gamleon, our weary adventurer, is a paradox: terrifying to some perhaps, yet his heart and intent is helpful, with a quiet dignity bordering on noble, intimidating and innately intelligent. The only way back out is to navigate the Gorgon tunnels. Join him, won't you ? Share his inner thoughts . See and feel how they help us all learn how to persist and triumph in spite of a world where everything is stacked against us. ( sound familiar, it should.) Join him and be swept away as he encounters or invents never-before-seen innovations and outrageous challenges. Dignity meets hope. Self-respect shines beyond courage. Welcome my friend to the Worlds of Within.

"I never feared death... until I saw you." ~•~•~ Samuel gazed up at her from beneath his dark brow. The many scars that littered his chest, made her heart ache for him. Had anyone cared for him when these wounds were fresh? "You are staring again." He commented, his voice neutral. Eden swallowed, biting her lip anxiously, "And you are shirtless." She replied, her voice equally as monotone. "Aye, I am." He nodded, "But that is not why you stare." "I do not stare with pity if that is what you are suggesting." She quipped, "I have seen enough pity in my life I would never put that upon anyone else." "Yet still you stare." His green eyes appeared to sparkle as his lips curled into a knowing smirk, "You may not know why little flower, but you are staring all the same." ~•~•~ Samuel Cairn was a formidable warrior, his hands stained with blood and his soul marked and scarred. Years ago he put down his sword and sought the peace of the church. Taking up a house on the lands of a nunnery, he utilized his skills to hunt and provide fresh food for the secluded nuns of the St. Maurice Abbey. Eden Edergreene lost her father to mysterious circumstances, the entire village looking at her with fear as if she were the cause of his demise. But when livestock begins to go missing, and another male is found dead, more questions are raised. Who or what was attacking the small village of Tarafet? This is a fluffy romance about a monster hunter and a young woman searching for a place in this world. Expect slow burn romance and tension! Started: 1/7/25
