Five years after leaving Detroit behind, Lani, Kash, and their son Egypt settle into a new life in Houston-big house, fresh start, and fewer ghosts from the past. Across the street, Isaiah and Hasan are raising their daughter Saryn, balancing love, family, and the heat of the city. What starts as friendly hellos between neighbors quickly turns into late-night conversations, playful tension, and unexpected sparks. With Kash's possessive streak, Hasan's watchful eyes, and Lani and Isaiah caught somewhere between curiosity and temptation, the neighborhood's about to feel a whole lot smaller. Love, loyalty, and desire all blur together in this messy, funny, and dangerously intimate story about chosen family and the lines we can't help but cross.

In a new city full of cold streets and hotter secrets, four lives get tangled in ways nobody planned. Masai and Koda are building a life together in Toronto - a home, a business, and a future for their son. But when Bry and Azir step into their world, friendship starts to blur into something riskier. Banter turns into heat, glances turn into touches, and trust gets tested in ways that can't be undone. It's Unexpected....

Masai and Koda were supposed to kill each other. Leaders of rival gangs, raised by the streets, built on hate and loyalty. But when a setup turns into something deeper, they find themselves caught in a slow-burning connection that neither of them can explain. They're both dominant. Both dangerous. Both confused as hell. But the more time they spend together, the harder it gets to act like this ain't something. This ain't a love story. It's something... Crazy. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ "Then surprisingly, I wouldn't be upset." His voice lowered a notch. "But maybe I'm just crazy... right along wit you."

Matthew flees a burning ship and is stranded on an arctic planet. Warning: This story is rated 18+ and is for mature audiences only.

Temperamental and, more often than not, the cause of his own problems, the only person who truly understands him is Darren. As his soon to be Alpha, it only makes sense that the two are so close. What doesn't make any sense is the sudden attraction to someone he's seen as a friend his whole life. Darren is the next Alpha, juggling an unruly beta and the weight of his own inheritance. At 19, life seemed to be going just fine for him until his Beta disappears right when bodies start showing up. Together, they must come to terms with being more than just Alpha and Beta and protect their pack from one of the biggest threats in its history.
