~When dust turns to gold~ Following an invasion by a reptile-like species called Khalgora in the year 2043, humanity is forced to take a final stance in a gruesome confrontation that threatened it's existence into an apocalyptic demise. After decades of tactical execution of all its skills and resources man triumphs over beast. But only barely. With stenches of death and wails of suffering, the earth is left desolate, infertile with an atmosphere deteriorating at an alarming speed. The only habitat lies below. Year 2311. Welcome to STEM city. STEM (an abbreviation for ' Safe Territorially Erected Megalopolis'), is an underground Empire and home to the surviving earth inhabitants, sheltering them from the harsh conditions of the rubbled earth's surface. But even in this city where intellectual geniuses wheeled a minor underground refuge operation to a major megalopolis, slums existed. These slums like any other, are regions with insufficient supply of amenities from the Megalopolis' authority leading to hunger, suffocation and high rate of death by major lung diseases. Diana and her brother Axel are twin siblings who were born and brought up in these slums, lose everything but even in this great abyss of darkness, find a ray of hope, Polaris. Polaris academy is an institution erected by the collaboration of the major pillaring powers of STEM to raise potential superhumans in skills such as martial arts, elemental abilities, advanced sciences and much more, all to help in the exploration of the earth surface now being roamed by foreign beasts who pose a threat to the underground empire. In a world where the weak were preyed on and only the strong thrived, two poor kids with no background find themselves in this academy among astoundingly skilled minds from powerful families fighting for the same spot as them. Can they survive the competition and level up or will they return to the hell they came from? **** ~Excerpt ~ " Attention all factions, report to the portal station in an hour.

Married to a big shot's secretary

Mae Wilson, only daughter of the Wilson family. She is a genius when it comes to business. In fact her name in the business world is something that makes people tremble upon hearing it. But the same can't be said for her love life. Her love life and career are the complete opposite. For someone of her standing and class, one would have expected her to be hovered around by a lot of guys but to men she is totally unattractive. Why? Well because of the person who escorts her to every date- Bella Davies. She has been her childhood friend since little and after they grew up people were more attracted to Bella than Mae. One fateful night determined to change her love life, she went on a double date with Bella which turned out to be a failure but at the same time a blessing and a curse. A curse being that her long time crush, Shaun Grayson, the only son of the Grayson family who had just come back to town, who she was very much in love with despised her and was attracted to Bella. And a blessing meeting Ethan- Shaun's secretary. Ethan is a gentle, kind hearted and loving human. The kind of guy that every girl would dream to have by her side. When she had given up on all hope on love, Ethan turns out to be her savior but when both get into a contractual marriage and are forced to fake being in love just three weeks after they met, he turned out to be her worst nightmare. "................ To our families and friends, we may appear happily married, but we both understand that our relationship is merely contractual and can be terminated at any time. In order to sustain it, we must both strive to please one another," he declared. "I fail to comprehend," she admitted. "I desire Bella to be removed from your life, and I request that you tender your resignation from your position at RX hotels..." "Ethan, Bella and I have been inseparable since childhood. I cannot sever ties with her just because you believe it is in the best interest of the child," she asserted. "I believe we have an appointment scheduled at the courthouse tomorrow," he stated. "For what purpose?" she inquired. "To sign our divorce papers," he responded. "You must be joking," she questioned. "If you cannot adhere to my conditions, then our marriage is not sustainable," he replied. "Ethan, please reconsider," she implored. "I have nothing left to consider. All I want to know is if you're in or out", he inquired with a cold look "I'm in.........." What will she do when she finds out that she had just become a tool in a game of revenge and struggle for power. In all these she still can't help but fall for him. Will her love be able to change him when she finds out his sole aim for marrying her ?
