Sentenced to the sea for a crime he didn't commit... Wrongly convicted of killing his lover, Li is sent off to serve his sentence in the privateer fleet of Mahlon, where he finds himself somewhere between a sailor and a pirate. He supposes it is a better way to die than wasting away in a prison cell for a crime he didn't commit. If it isn't the sea or sailing necromancers that threaten his life, perhaps it is his assigned partner, an unfriendly man named Ardlac who seems to want nothing to do with a stranger sharing his space. Li doesn't know that his unfriendly exterior masks a wounded soul suffering from a loss Li can understand far too well. But that is only one of the many secrets lurking around him and one of the many threats to uncover. CONVICTED is a low-stakes story about healing, recovery, and comfort. Originally posted on Tapas, I am now cross-posting this story on Royal Road, Wattpad, and Neovel.

  • Iced Hearts

    Author : PirateoPotato

    Samuel lived most of his life as a middling engineer in the Midwest. Once the GU(Galactic Union) arrived, life changed little. Other than his wife of thirty years passed away from brain cancer. For years, he has lived as a recluse, trying to be forgotten about by others, left alone to fade away. He took a deal from the GU: he would man an outpost on the galaxy's far reaches alone, ensuring it functions without issue. He thought this was perfect, allowing him a quiet place to live out the rest of his life, somewhere no one really cared about what he did. Scarletra wanted nothing more than to have someone. She had lived alone for years after running away from her tribe. She scrounged by with a meager life, only her carvings and the icy winds to keep her company. One day, while out hunting, she noticed movement in one of the GU outposts. Eager for companionship, she jumped at the chance to meet someone and maybe escape the glacial loneliness of her home.
