A mysterious man lurks in the dark. The thriller unravels dark secrets, Romance, Murder and a traitor. ****** It was time to leave the wedding venue and Aahil took brisk strides towards me. He looked as fresh and elegant as he had at the start of the ceremony while I felt spent and drained with exertion. As we walked towards the exit with my hand firmly held by Aahil, he bent his head and spoke in a barely audible whisper, "You really want to find out what it is like being married to me?" he bit out with a flash of pure fire in his mesmeric gaze. "You will wish every minute of the day that you stayed where you belonged and you will be begging to be out of this relationship before the reason for which I had to go through this charade comes to an end!"

    Highest ranking: #104 in Mystery/Thriller Placed 1st in 'Most Engaging' category of the Sour Apple Awards Placed 1st in Mystery/Thriller category of the Gem Awards Placed 2nd in 'Best of the Best' category of the Amethyst Awards Placed 3rd in Mystery/Thriller category of The Dreamcatcher Awards Also has stickers for winning first in other awards. A secret unknown mission, a shot down helicopter, a guilt-ridden heart, and no name. Yep, that sounds just about right. I came to Abel Township for one reason only, but after the unfortunate event of my helicopter being shot down by a rocket launcher of all things, I'm apparently going to be staying here a lot longer than planned. Because of it, I'm going to have to play nice in order to survive, which is a lot harder than it seems. Everyone carries a burden with them, me included. I'm a runner, and until I leave this pathetic little settlement I'm going to do my job, and run. But one of the things I'm learning it that nothing is ever as it seems. Each piece of the puzzle brings another question, another addition to the story shrouded in mystery and dripping with sinister intent. Maybe this settlement is as pathetic as I thought it was. Maybe my helicopter was shot down for a reason. I cannot wait around for an answer. I learned that long ago. Now deemed Runner Five, I have decided I will do what I have to do to find out every mystery here in Abel Township. And I'm going to start with my actual mission. What is Project Greenshoot... And how will it help this settlement survive the zombie apocalypse? Disclaimer: I do not own Zombies Run or it's characters. The only characters I own are the ones I created all by myself. This is my Runner Five's perspective on the missions in season 1 and just in Abel Township. Hope you enjoy. Cover by @_Thalix_

[BOOK ONE] Highest Rank Thriller: #1 (4.12.17) "Whatever he does, whatever he throws at me," I panted, leaning my back against the door as my usually obnoxiously loud voice dropped to a hushed whisper, "I hope he kisses me not." *** Addison Pilediah celebrated her 21st birthday a little more differently than others. When a gold flake encrusted invitation letter had arrived at her doorstep just the day before her big day, Addison's curiosity had gotten the better of her for she had a nagging feeling that all was not right in the world. She knew that something, or rather someone, was playing tricks with her, and as a very curious girl, she had to find out what it was. It only took one atrocious and life-threatening party, an obnoxious group of party-goers, and one devilishly handsome cynical spirit for Addison to realize that perhaps going to the party was not the brightest idea. Especially since she would be locked in an old boathouse for a while with a bunch of evil beings that would gladly try to kill her. In fact, it would be a miracle if she could make it out alive after receiving kisses from Death himself. *** completed inspired by HP: Prisoner of Azkaban Highest Rank Fantasy: #6 Highest Rank Teen Fiction: #54

    "And then they lived happily ever after." But what if the story never ends? What if your escape into fiction becomes your prison? I loved every story-fairy tales, dark romances, BLs. Fiction was my refuge. Until one crash tore me from reality and trapped me inside a BL webtoon called Obsession Royale. No reincarnation. No transmigration. Just me. Erased. Forgotten. Lost in a world where I don't exist. I didn't possess the hero nor the villain or even an NPC. Nor did I reincarnate as a character. I'm a real human stuck in someone else's dark, twisted love triangle. Noah Cecil-the main lead. British charm wrapped in silk and danger. He's obsessed. Jealous. Cold enough to snap my neck but won't. Because I'm his new fixation. Lee Tae-min-the "Lucky Star," sweet and broken yet strong, the only one who smiled at me before the chaos swallowed us whole. I made a promise to my father: I will survive. Even if it means walking through fire, facing obsession, and breaking every rule in this shattered world, a world designed to crush me. In a story about control and obsession, how long until I become the next victim? I'm not supposed to be here. But I am. And I will fight to survive.

    She thought she was free. Until a billionaire and his daughter saw her - and decided she was theirs. One wanted a wife. The other wanted a mother. Neither asked if she agreed. They watched her for two years. Followed her every move. Until one day, they flew across the world and bought her future - with smiles, paperwork, and charm that smelled like roses but felt like chains. Now, she sleeps in silk sheets she didn't choose. Wears clothes she didn't buy. Answers to a name she didn't earn. Every touch is a test. Every night is a transaction. And every whispered "I love you" is a warning. She hides pills beneath her tongue. She dreams of running. But there is no escape - only a cage made of wealth, obsession, and unbearable intimacy. Because he doesn't just want her body. He wants her compliance. Her mind. Her loyalty. Her womb. And when the daughter discovers the truth - she doesn't cry. She accuses. Now the doors are locked. The smiles are gone. And the only thing more terrifying than being watched... is being needed. This isn't love. This is possession with a wedding ring. This is family, twisted into obsession. This is what happens when a girl becomes the answer to someone else's madness. ---

    There exists a notorious school known only as the University of Gangsters-a place where students with the lowest grades and the most violent tempers are cast away. It is a prison disguised as a campus, where rules are warped and morality is a forgotten word. In these halls, drugs, cigarettes-even murder-are not forbidden. Chaos is law, and power decides who survives. Within its walls, factions rise and fall. Gangs are formed in shadows, alliances sealed with blood, and betrayals whispered behind every corner. And yet, beneath the violence and madness, one strange truth remains-everyone is desperate to escape. For many, studying is not a choice, but a way out of the cage. Among the many thrown into this cursed academy, a group of friends finds themselves bound by fate. One among them-a girl whose heart dares to love the mysterious and feared owner of the school. But their love is forbidden. Eyes watch them. Enemies stir. And secrets-dark, ancient, and dangerous-begin to unravel. Demons masquerade as angels. Enemies wear the faces of friends. Every smile may hide a dagger. Every truth may be a lie. And in the end... Will love conquer the storm, or will hatred and vengeance burn the world down? "Fight or else you will die..."

    🔅This story is not a historical fiction.🔅 🔅🔆🔅 He was standing in his balcony, feeling the cold night and sipping over his black coffee. Suddenly , he saw a silhouette in the garden moving near the boundaries. He placed his coffee aside and moved a little forward squinting his eyes to see the person but darkness created by trees at that place was not helping. He quickly went towards the garden instead of shouting for guards. When he was entering the garden , he saw that it was none other than her. She was climbing the walls and soon she jumped over the wall. He ran towards his car and ignited the engine.He followed her outside the palace keeping his speed slow. "Why is she sneaking like a thief?" "Is she the traitor whom he was searching for days, who was involved in data breeching?" All these questions flooded his mind seeing her walking speedily while tucking her hands in the side pockets of her hoodie. He was following her quietly and she was continuously walking on the black asphalt road in the midnight oblivious of his presence. His heart was beating fast with the anticipation, it was not like he had agreed fully what Rohan had said yesterday but now he was preparing himself to see the worst thing his mind ever could imagine about her. She was not like that. She can't betray him. But if she is the culprit then he will not hesitate before doing what he usually does to a traitor. She would get the punishment and the punishment is DEATH. 🔅🔆🔅 Welcome to the life of ROYALS. Royals whose lifes are unpredictable. Royals who rule on the people. 🔅🔆🔅 He says, " Don't you ever dare to hurt me, because if it will be my turn, you will have to google how to stop crying." 🔅🔆🔅 She says, " I refused to let it break me, I faced the tragedy, I felt the pain and it only made me stronger" 🔅🔆
