Gold Apocalypse

Of Flames and Gold

[My WSA 2024 Entry novel! Please vote] In a world where mythical beings have fallen into an "eternal slumber," a thriving underground market exploits the stolen essence of these dormant creatures. At its epicenter are dragons—majestic beings desired for their scales, organs, and prized eggs. The most coveted treasure of all is a dragon's name, a key that holds the power to control its very existence. Dragon Lord, guardian of a clutch of dormant eggs, lives in isolation atop a hill, surrounded by a forest that veils his castle. He bears the scars of past betrayals, having been deceived by those who feigned love to steal his treasures or claim his head as a bounty. Jaded and cold, he trusts no one, living a solitary existence. However, his solitude is shattered when a woman unwittingly stumbles into his life. Yara finds herself in Dragon Lord's treasured den amidst a battle between the dragon and thieves. In a twist of fate, she mistakenly bonds with the dormant eggs, breathing life into them. Reluctantly, Dragon Lord allows Yara into his world, and their journey unfolds amid the looming threat of underground organizations seeking to exploit the dragons for profit. As the eggs come to life, so does an unexpected connection between Dragon Lord and Yara. Despite his cold and jaded exterior, he finds himself unable to ignore her presence. Yara, too, cannot deny the pull she feels towards him, and emotions begin to burn beneath the surface. Together, they must navigate the challenges of waiting for the eggs to hatch, fend off those who seek to exploit the dragon and its offspring, and confront the secrets that Yara harbors—a revelation that could destroy everything. In this tale of flames and gold, two scarred souls in a world where trust is a rare and precious commodity must confront the ghosts of their pasts. They navigate the dangerous currents of love and deception, protecting unborn dragons from a world hungry for their magic. Will their bond withstand the trials ahead, or will the flames of betrayal engulf them in the end? A/N: It starts out SLOW, because I tend to get lost in the pages and be descriptive but once it gets to the action, it really picks up! Looking forward to growing with you all on this journey!!!

A Sexual Apocalypse

In the year 3217, Earth has fallen under the domination of the Xytherians, a terrifying alien species that has enslaved humanity. The once-thriving planet is now a dystopian wasteland where humans are reduced to nothing more than cattle, bred for food and labor. The Xytherians, towering over 12 feet with immense strength and impenetrable defenses, treat humans as expendable resources. Earth’s population has plummeted from 24 billion to a mere 2 billion, and survival is a daily struggle for the remaining survivors. Luther Grey, a 22-year-old human, lives a nightmarish existence in one of the Xytherians' feeding centers. Here, human slaves are slaughtered and consumed by the alien children, creatures with voracious appetites. The pain is indescribable, and Luther’s life seems destined to end in the same horrific manner. He is small and weak, only a tool for the Xytherians to exploit. Yet, despite his fragile body, Luther harbors an unbreakable will to survive, and in his darkest moments, a small flame of hope burns within him. As Luther’s time draws near and the alien children close in to feast on him, fate takes a turn. A powerful meteorite crashes into the feeding center, obliterating everything in its path. The explosion destroys the Xytherians’ structure, killing most of the invaders. In the wreckage, Luther survives, gravely injured but alive. In the aftermath, Luther encounters an ancient being named Meta, an entity once created by the Xytherians to serve them. Meta offers Luther a chance at vengeance and survival, granting him the ability to harness the soul-extraction system of the Xytherians. Through this system, Luther can gain power by consuming the bodies of the dead and absorbing their essence. Though revolted by the process, Luther realizes it is the only way to grow stronger and ultimately seek revenge on the alien invaders. With his newfound power and Meta’s guidance, Luther embarks on a journey of vengeance. His weapon, a shadowy scythe, symbolizes his transformation into a soul reaper. The more Xytherians he kills, the stronger he becomes, leveling up and gaining abilities that were once beyond his imagination. However, as he feeds on the souls of his enemies, Luther struggles with the moral cost of his actions. Each kill feeds his power but erodes his humanity. Luther’s path leads him to confront the very darkness he is becoming, questioning whether his thirst for vengeance is worth the price he’s paying. As he battles the remaining Xytherians, Luther must decide whether he will become a monster in the process or retain his humanity in the face of overwhelming power. The Dark World's Dawn is a tale of survival, vengeance, and the cost of power, as Luther Grey rises from the ashes of Earth to challenge the alien overlords and reclaim his world.
