What if having superpowers was not a gift but a curse? Would you still choose to use it?

Aleksandra Leszczyńska works as an agent for a secret government organisation training people with superpowers - the Gifted - to work as a police support force. Working as a public servant to keep peace and order was always her dream, but she struggles as her gift is not as valuable for the field. Still, she refuses to be turned into back-office support. The situation changes when she rescues a cute Gifted from kidnapping and stumbles upon a deviant who dies in excruciating pain, consumed by his own power. 

After confirming that it's a fate awaiting most of the Gifted, every agent must question if they still want to remain in the organisation and keep using their powers. 

However, as deviants scheme to kidnap more innocent people and use them for their repulsive experiments, only the Gifted can stop them.

A world where those with superhuman powers are taught to wield their powers for good and change the world. That is until a villain named Scar enters her life and changes her whole perspective on what it truly means to be the good guy. Scar loves her. And knows she loves him-she just doesn't know that yet herself. But she's about to find out. ~Excerpt~ "Why me?" I asked exasperatedly. "You do all of this for me, and why? For what reason?" "That's where you're still wrong, honey," he said darkly. "I'm not doing this for you. I'm doing this for me. I wanted you, so now you're mine-that's all there is to it. And by being mine, if someone hurts you, they're hurting me. And I am not one to take that disrespect lightly. Do you understand me?" "No." "You will." He knelt next to me, his face hovering over mine, his arms on either side of the machine, caging me beneath his upper body. "I will ruin you-I'll fit you to my mold; I'll take that goody-two-shoes girl you are, and turn her into a force to be reckoned with. One that's mine." I quivered. "All mine." "I..." His proximity had me beyond nervous. My throat constricted as I tried to regain my composure. "Will never be yours." He laughed, his hand caressing my cheek. "You and I both know you already are." *Enemies to lovers (mildly) dark romance* PUBLISHING ALSO ON ROYAL ROAD AS LEELEEACE1

It all started with a superhero, one who vowed to help save the world and use her powers for good....But how can one keep a promise if they don't remember making it? What happens when the lines to right and wrong blur? When promises have to be broken? When the one thing you thought you could never lose, your morality, comes into question. What happens when the only person in the world that understands you is the person you believed was evil. But a reputation can be fabricated, evidence can be tampered and memories can be manipulated. How does one decide who's good and who's bad? Who's the hero and who's a villain? Maybe the only real difference between the two is a change in perspective or perhaps keeping an open mind. Sometimes even a "Villain" has a good side and even a "Hero" has a bad one...so what would happen if they were to see eye to eye?....Who would be there to pull them from the deep end?...or maybe the high tide is exactly where they want to be.

They fear us because we are different. They fear us because we have special powers, because the goddess gave us gifts. The goddess gave us these powers to protect the non-gifted. They don't care about that. They fear us because they think we will hurt them. They believe we are power hungry, the irony. They have hunted us for centuries now. Killing us because they are afraid. We just want to live out lives in peace. Why must there be a fear for people who are different? Why must there be such hate for people who just want to live their lives? My name is Lydia Martin. I fight for my freedom. This is my story. The story of how I fell in love with my target. The story of how I fell in love with the one man I wasn't supposed to fall in love with.
Death's Mending Touch by CyberReaperGMBA
49 parts Complete
Are you a fan of ghosts, action, mostly-functional teams, and superhero-comic-book-esque plots? Dive into an origin story for a superpowered team that blends the paranormal with science fiction. A new chapter will be uploaded each Sunday and Wednesday! - Twelve young adults with superhuman capabilities are withdrawn from their civilian lives to take on a puzzling problem. The thirteenth of them died years ago... Or did she? In 2196, an artificial intelligence called the Mainframe gave thirteen teenagers the chance to stabilize humanity. Those thirteen were called the Sivylla. The Mainframe gave them the mission to unlock a digital capsule full of information about humanity's history. In the process, the Sivylla acquired various side effects dubbed "enhanced capabilities." The thirteenth Sivylla sacrificed her life for the mission. Once the remaining twelve completed the mission, they returned to their lives across the Earth. They didn't expect to meet again. Now, it's 2206. Klavdiya, the Sivylla with enhanced healing, thinks she spots the thirteenth Sivylla. Her hope and guilt compel her to chase this potential look-alike. Just as she approaches the look-alike, an explosion violently kills a bystander. In the aftermath, Klavdiya loses track of her target. Minutes later, the twelve Sivylla are summoned to a mandatory gathering without explanation. The explosion Klavdiya witnessed wasn't the only one the thirteenth Sivylla was spotted near in the past week. As more evidence surfaces, the remaining Sivylla don't have a choice but to join a battle they didn't start.
