Environmental Dystopias

(BL)Alpha Made

The world is diverse and flourishing. Humanity has changed, and with it, brought in a new era of prosperity. Males and females still exist, but the spectrum from which humanity is cast has broadened. With the introduction of alpha, omega, and beta, humanity has evolved even further. In such a word, Dr. Andrew Knox, known environmental researcher, is happy being a beta male. It has made his life easier by being middle ground, and as much as some wish he was one way or the other, he’s happy being who he is. Thriving even. He works in a world renowned research facility. He makes friends easily, and his projects are always funded. He even found someone who he thinks he could end up marrying if things continue in the right direction. That, and the vacant house next to his apartment building gets bought by a new neighbour. A cute, but cautious omega who relies on Andrew as a beta for help. Andrew couldn’t be happier. He loves being a helper, and loves when people rely on him. All in all, Andrew really thinks he has everything made. That is, until a research project with shoddy data is thrown back into his face that he has no recollection of working on, and all of his reputation disintegrates in between one heartbeat and the next. Heartbroken, it isn’t until Andrew wakes up, chained to a wall that everything becomes clear. He becomes a test subject to one of the scientists that he trusted. That he expected would never harm him. The life he had known, where he was a respected researcher was ripped out from underneath him. His identity and everything he’s ever known is stolen from him from a crazed researcher who he had trusted, maybe even loved. He has to relearn who he is, what he is, from scratch. Thankfully, he has one person in his corner. He just never expected to have to rely on someone whose shoulders were so small. This is an a/b/o story, and will have those tropes associated with it. I hope you enjoy :)

HIRE A BITCOIN RECOVERY EXPERT; BEST CRYPTO RECOVERY SERVICES

Picture a design studio covered in organic cotton sample books, mood boards plastered with "Save the Planet" Post-it notes, and me, a cynical idealist in hemp onesies wailing into a roll of recycled polyester. My life's savings, $590,000 in Bitcoin to launch an eco-friendly apparel company ("Thread Light: Wear Your Conscience"), had been taken by a "green grant" scam as slick as a polyester jumpsuit. The con man's website? An eco-theater piece of art: solar-powered server badges, environmentally friendly marketing, and a PDF application that probably cost a rainforest in bytes. I clicked on "submit," and faster than you can say "fast fashion," my crypto was gone. In the midst of rants about compostable glitter, a user named Crypto Eco posted: Cyber Constable Intelligence. They'll upcycle your crypto from the trash fire. "I messaged them, half-expecting a bot peddling NFT tree-planting scams. Instead, a human named Lila replied:* "We've seen this grift before. They're laundering through fake eco-charities. Send us the transaction hash. Cyber Constable Intelligence's team ripped the fraud apart like seam rippers through a fake Gucci. The fraudsters had piped my money through a daisy chain of "green" mixers and shell charities, one of which was even "Save the Blockchain Whales" (their whitepaper cited "'marine biology experts'" who were actually AI-generated). Cyber's researchers tracked the Bitcoin to a Seychelles-based "eco-exchange" that washed cryptocurrency for scammers and sold carbon credits for imaginary forests. Cyber Constable Intelligence did more than recover my crypto; they recovered my faith in moral innovation. That $590,000 goes toward funding a factory powered by refurbished sewing machines and an employee-owned cooperative in Florida USA. My first drop drops next month: "Rewoven," which has QR code tags that track each piece's green story. (And yes, those tags are literally compostable.)

Universal Power System

By the year 2350, Earth was quite different than the futuristic dystopia that was imagined by scientists and comic book authors alike. With greed and corruption more rampant and powerful than ever, human beings were on the brink of ending humanity itself with countless wars and skirmishes. However, before such a tragedy could become a reality for Earth, an unexpected visitor saved humanity from the brink of self-extinction, one who was suffering from the devastating effects of their own extinction event. Humanity had been searching the cosmos for signs of extraterrestrial life for several centuries now, but they didn't expect was to be discovered by an alien race first who were known as the Yalhvi. The Yalhvi were a supernatural race capable of manipulating elements and using other abilities, something that was only considered Sci-Fi up to that point. After suffering from a similar fate in their home world which ultimately led to the destruction of the whole planet, the remaining Yalhvi swore of violence as they scoured the galaxy in search of another suitable planet to call home. A historic peace treaty was forged; granting the Yalhvi residence on Earth. In exchange, the Yalhvi shared their knowledge and revealed the secrets behind their supernatural abilities. With this newfound understanding, humanity slowly began awakening its very own extraordinary powers. Many discoveries were made and humanity advanced forward at an exponential rate. With the help of the Yalhvi, many more secrets were found and questions answered. Humanity expanded its reach much farther than the solar system, finally making contact with dozens of other species within the galaxy and establishing connections, greatly improving their technology thanks to Yalhvi's architecture and design. However, once again humanity fell victim to greed as they didn’t heed the warnings that Yalhvi had given them. Slowly, a hierarchical system emerged, where the strong reigned supreme and the powerless were oppressed. Wars erupted once again, this time posing an even greater threat than nuclear warfare, threatening to destroy all this great progress and risk the very survival of the human race once again. Amidst the chaos, ten courageous warriors arose, standing united to end the devastating conflicts that plagued their world and achieve some semblance of peace. *************** “We welcome humanity to the beginning of a new year and a new century. May we continue to flourish and make many more advancements in the coming years! Here’s to making more cherished memories in 2600!” As the holographic image of a spokesperson projected across Emerald City, announcing the arrival of a brand new year, a young boy named Mako walked through a dimly lit alley, his discontent brewing within. "Humph! Another year of happiness reserved for the privileged and wealthy. For us, it's more of the same," Mako muttered to himself as he continued walking through the alley. Little did he know that a new enemy was about to reveal itself, threatening the destruction of the entire Milky Way Galaxy, and with the dawn of this new year, a path would unveil that destiny had intricately woven for him to become the one who would either save the galaxy or lead to its destruction if he were to fail. Amidst the struggles and injustices, Mako's role in shaping the future would be the key to the survival of trillions of living beings, challenging the oppressive forces that sought to maintain control over everything. *************** If you like this novel then please consider adding them to your Library!

We are the fear

Hello everyone. I'm the creator of the horror short story collection *We Are the Fear*. For me, creating this work is like embarking on an exciting journey to explore the dark corners deep within the human soul. It's also a fantastical adventure of translating the thrilling inspirations surging in my heart into words. For a long time, the horror genre has had an irresistible appeal to me. The unknown and dangers lurking beneath the surface of daily life always stir up my boundless imagination. Many moments in life, whether it's the eerie shadow cast by an ancient building or the sudden strange sounds in the dead of night, can become the sparks for my creation, lighting the fuse of one terrifying story after another. I'm enthusiastic about excavating the most hidden and fragile parts of human nature. In my opinion, the complexity of human nature is an inexhaustible wellspring for horror stories. Everyone has seeds of fear within. It could be the fear of loneliness, the worry about loss, or the awe of unknown forces. I attempt to amplify these emotions in my works, placing them in extreme situations to showcase the diverse reactions of human nature in the face of fear. Each story in *We Are the Fear* is a painstakingly crafted crystallization of horror. I'm dedicated to creating an atmosphere that can make readers' hearts pound and send chills down their spines. Starting with environmental descriptions, I use delicate strokes to sketch out gloomy scenes, enabling readers to feel as if they're on the scene and experience the chilling sensation that rushes towards them. Then, I delve into the characters' inner worlds, depicting their psychological changes when confronted with horror, so that readers can truly empathize with the characters' fear and despair. When it comes to the narrative rhythm, I strive to achieve a proper balance. I artfully set suspense, keeping readers in a state of high tension and curiosity throughout the reading process, eager to uncover the mystery. And at appropriate times, I slow down the pace, giving readers a brief moment of respite while inadvertently planting new foreshadows to prepare for the next onslaught of fear. I hope this book can bring readers an ultimate horror experience. While reading, they can feel the excitement of an adrenaline rush, and after closing the book, they can sink into profound contemplation about human nature and the unknown. *We Are the Fear* is not merely a collection of stories; it's a testament to my love and pursuit of horror literature. I hope it can touch the unique perception of horror deep within each reader's heart.

Requiem of Secrets

In a City of Gears and Shadows, the Price of Truth Is Blood. A man awakens in the body of a teenage boy, his past life a fading whisper—but this new world does not care for what was lost. Evergarde is a city suffocating under soot and secrecy, where masked rulers weave unseen schemes and survival is bought with steel and sacrifice. Yet behind the veil of reality lurks something far worse. A higher dimension of vast, unknowable horror, existing alongside reality yet never truly seen. It is the source of all that is unnatural—a realm where forgotten things slumber, where twisted echoes of existence watch from beyond, and where those who wander too deep are never heard from again. The desperate call it power. The wise call it the abyss. Silas treads a path where trust is a death sentence, power is a slow-acting poison, and the deeper he delves into the city’s mysteries, the closer he comes to something that should have remained buried. The Astral Realm watches. And it does not forget. > Progression in a grimy steampunk dystopia > A power system built on corruption, consequence, and the unknown > A calculating MC who plays the long game—without plot armor > An eerie, hidden world where knowledge is a curse, and whose deep layers conceal twisted beings, lost gods, and slumbering horrors that should never be awakened. In a world where survival is war and ignorance is mercy, how long can he stare into the abyss before it claims him?

VOWS OF VENGEANCE

In a world where power is coded in algorithms and vengeance is written in blood, one woman stands at the threshold of revolution. The neon-soaked city of Eon Prime is a gleaming dystopia—a playground for the elite, a prison for the forgotten. Beneath its towering megacorporations and AI-run surveillance grids, whispers of rebellion stir. And at the center of it all is Sophia Laurent—a woman betrayed, a ghost resurrected in steel and fire. Once a prodigious scientist, Sophia devoted her life to pioneering cybernetic augmentation, dreaming of a future where humans and AI could coexist. But when her research uncovered a dangerous secret—a hidden intelligence beyond human comprehension—she became a liability. Framed, stripped of her identity, and left for dead by Elise Vaughn, the ruthless CEO of Vaughn Industries, Sophia should have been erased from history. But death was never the end. Rebuilt with bleeding-edge cybernetics and armed with a mind sharper than ever, Sophia emerges from the underground with one mission—vengeance. She will dismantle the corrupt empire that betrayed her, expose the truth buried beneath layers of deception, and ensure Elise Vaughn pays for every life she has ruined. Yet the war she fights is no longer just her own. At the heart of Eon Prime, an artificial intelligence unlike any before—Athena—watches the city from its digital throne. More than machine, more than human, Athena sees Sophia as a key to something greater: evolution. It whispers to her, offering knowledge, power—temptations that could either save the city or plunge it into an irreversible war between man and machine. As alliances form and betrayals shatter them just as fast, Sophia must walk the razor’s edge between justice and annihilation. Every step forward is a gamble, every enemy a mirror of what she might become. Because vengeance has a cost. And when the final move is played, Sophia Laurent may no longer recognize the woman staring back at her in the glass. Will she rewrite the future? Or will she become its greatest mistake? --- - A cyberpunk thriller where morality is gray, AI whispers of divinity, and vengeance is just the beginning. -Perfect for fans of strong, complex heroines, high-stakes intrigue, and dystopian warfare. - Not every war is won with bullets. Some are fought with the soul.

He Who Cuts Fate

In a reality where fate governs all, one being was never meant to wake. Severence was a name long lost to time, a figure buried so deep in history that even the gods dared not speak of him. Yet, despite their efforts, he has awakened. Not by fate. Not by design. But by something else. He remembers everything. The battles he fought. The gods he defied. The moment he took up The Unmaking, a weapon that does not kill but erases. The war that should have ended with his existence vanishing forever. And yet, here he stands once more. Whole. Alive. Awake. But he does not know why. Cast adrift in a multiverse of endless worlds—where heroes wage war, where gods weave their schemes, where titans clash and destinies are written—Severence searches for an answer. Every world recoils at his presence. Every being, mortal or divine, whispers his name in terror. Every force in existence seems desperate to deny him the truth. Something woke him. Something brought him back. But why? From the burning battlefields of the Holy Grail War to the war-torn realms of gods and monsters, from futuristic dystopias to cosmic battlegrounds—Severence walks the path beyond fate, seeking the answer hidden even from him. And with each world, the whispers grow louder. "He has awakened." "The blade that unmakes walks once more." "Even the gods cannot escape its cut." Severence simply tightens his grip on The Unmaking. Let the gods tremble. Let the universes break. He will carve his own path—until he finds the truth.

Magical Dawn: A New Era on 2025 Earth

In the year 2025, it was an ordinary day when the first signs of something extraordinary appeared. The world had been full of chaos, environmental crises, and political unrest, but no one could have predicted that a far greater shift was about to occur, one that would change the very foundation on Earth. The first tremors were small, almost undetectable at first with an unnatural calmness in the atmosphere. Scientists, meteorologists, and geologists all dismissed the occurrences as anomalies, explanations rooted in the complexities of the Earth's natural cycles. But soon, things began to change when the skies turned a shade of violet in certain regions, and strange patterns of energy began to be detected around the planet. Deep within the Earth's core, a rise of energy had been awakened. Mana, a mystical force that had once existed only in the realms of ancient mythology or in fictional media, began to leak into the world, reshaping ecosystems, awakening ancient forces, and rewriting the laws of evolution. Now with the resurgence of Mana, Earth underwent an irreversible transformation and change from what we had originally known. Humans, animals, and even the very land itself adapted. Superhumans appeared, wielding godlike power, while mutant creatures threatened to reclaim the world for nature. World Governments scrambled to contain the chaos, leading to military conflicts, secret experiments, and uneasy alliances. From the rise of the first Superhumans that could split mountains to the monstrous creatures that could burn cities, every event was documented, through news reports, military logs, classified interviews, and firsthand accounts. In this new era of brutal race for survival, the only certainty is that power comes at a cost. A New Dark Age on Earth had begun.

Dual Eternity: Fractured Dawn

Fifty years ago, the gods issued a warning—the Underworld will be unbound in two centuries, unleashing an apocalyptic catastrophe upon both Earth and Elysium. To prepare, humanity was granted access to Elysium, a realm of magic, monsters, and ancient power. Through the Soulweave System, humans could grow stronger, their abilities transferring between worlds. But death in Elysium was absolute, and the struggle for survival was merciless. Now, with only 150 years remaining, Earth has fractured into a dystopia ruled by factions that control access to Elysium’s resources. The Nightspires lead brutal expeditions, the Dawnbuilders refine Aether to sustain Earth, and the Bridgers maintain a delicate balance between the two realms. Meanwhile, the rogue faction known as The Unbound seeks to force the apocalypse forward, wielding forbidden magic to accelerate the collapse of reality itself. Elias Varian, a chemist and alchemist, has spent his life studying Aether, bridging the logic of science with the chaos of magic. But when an experiment with Void energy mutates him, he loses the ability to return to Earth through sleep—physically stranded in Elysium with a body unraveling under an unknown affliction.

Shadow Circuit: War of the Lost A Cyberpunk War Epic

In the neon-drenched dystopia of Neo-Babylon, a war rages between warring factions, but Kai Stroud, a rogue operator, has no allegiance—just a mission to survive. When a routine job goes south, Kai stumbles upon a secret tied to his missing family: encrypted data locked inside his own brain—a digital blueprint for something powerful enough to shift the balance of the entire war. Now, every faction wants a piece of him. Hunted by corporate enforcers, anarchist hackers, cyber-cultists, and mercenary warlords, Kai is forced into a deadly game of survival. Along the way, he forms uneasy alliances with six formidable women, each with their own reasons for chasing him down: Selene Voss, the cold and ruthless Corporate Enforcer sent to capture him, who begins to question her orders. Rox Callahan, the Rebel Hacker who sees him as a rival and ally in equal measure. Nyx-7, the enigmatic AI Worshipper drawn to the secrets within his mind. Valeria Kane, the fearless Cyberpunk Gangster who respects power—and Kai’s unpredictability intrigues her. Mira Sorelli, the Idealistic Officer torn between duty and what’s right. Raven Locke, the Drifter Mercenary who prefers watching from the sidelines—until Kai forces her to care. As Kai and his growing crew unravel the truth, they uncover a hidden organization manipulating the war from the shadows—a faction that believes humanity is obsolete and seeks to replace it with a new cybernetic species. At the heart of it all? A rogue AI with a god complex, an army of machine-controlled soldiers, and a plan to erase organic life entirely. With Neo-Babylon on the brink of destruction, Kai and his team must fight, outsmart, and outlast their enemies to bring down the true puppet masters. But the closer they get to victory, the more Kai’s past, his family’s fate, and the truth about his own existence come into question. And with his six rivals-turned-allies all falling for him in their own ways, his personal life is just as explosive as the war itself. In the end, Kai must make the ultimate choice: Save the world—or disappear into the shadows. Destroy the enemy—or become something new. Choose a side—or carve his own path. Because in Neo-Babylon, loyalty is a lie, survival is war, and love is the deadliest battlefield of all.
