Charlotte Graves was never meant to survive this world. One moment, she's military-trained-disciplined, in control. The next, she wakes in a brutal northern land that doesn't know her-and doesn't care to. Captured. Beaten. Sold. Given a new name: Runa. Stripped of everything she was, Charlotte is thrown into a world where strength is law-and weakness is destroyed. But Charlotte is not weak. She learns. Adapts. Endures. Fights. And when she's forced into a deadly arena for the entertainment of strangers, survival is no longer enough. She must become something more. Something this world has never seen before. But in a place where trust is a liability and attachment is a death sentence, Charlotte makes a dangerous mistake- She starts to care. For someone she shouldn't. Someone tied to the very people who own her. And in this world, love doesn't save you. It destroys you. Because Charlotte doesn't belong here. And she refuses to die here. Astrid Varriksdottir has always known her life is not her own. As the daughter of a Jarl, her future has already been decided-her marriage promised to secure alliances, her role defined long before she had a say in it. Her name carries value. Her choices do not. But Astrid has never been careless with what little choice she has. She steps away from power where she can, training as a healer instead of standing at the center of it. Not because she has to-but because she chooses to. It works. Until she meets someone who was never meant to exist here at all. A girl who does not bow. Who does not treat her the way everyone else does. Who does not see her as something to be used. And for the first time, Astrid does not step back. For the first time- she wants something she was never meant to have.

In a world where scent meant everything, it defined the power and status one held in society. Rebecca, a noblewoman and an omega born without a scent, struggled beneath the weight of her family's expectations and the relentless judgment of others. She had long accepted her fate, to remain unmated and unmarried as for no Alpha would ever claim a scentless omega. But her shackles were broken by a powerful female Alpha named Freen. Freen, an army captain, belonged to a breed so rare and feared that her presence alone commanded respect. Yet, in a cruel twist of fate, she had lost her ability to scent during battle, leaving her to see herself as a damaged Alpha. Two souls defined by what they lacked, bound by the versions of themselves they thought they could never be. In a society ruled by instinct, they defied the very foundation of its laws, and in each other, they found a strength far greater than nature ever intended. ( Girl x G!p )

Genre: Action | Fantasy | Romance Her hair was as light as daylight, and her eyes burned like the sun itself. Liora stood frozen, heart hammering as the woman descended from her throne-each step elegant yet commanding. The closer she came, the heavier the air felt, until Elunara stood directly before her, gaze sharp and unrelenting. Liora tried to look away. She failed. Elunara tilted her chin upward, forcing their eyes to meet. "So... you're the one I'm meant to marry?" she asked, her voice smooth like honey laced with venom. Her eyes roamed over Liora's face, slow and deliberate. Liora knew she should answer. Knew silence might be taken as disrespect. But this woman-goddess-like in beauty, terrifying in presence-had stolen the words right from her throat. Elunara smirked, leaning in close enough that Liora could feel the warmth of her breath. She traced a finger along Liora's bottom lip, eyes flicking down with unsettling intent. "I don't bite, darling," she whispered huskily. A pause. "Well... not yet." ⸻ ⚠️ Content Warning: This story includes mature themes such as explicit sexual content (smut), strong language, violence, discussions of incest, and instances of homophobia.

This is a mature, standalone girlxgirl story. Caitlyn never expected her best friend's little sister to kiss her on New Year's Eve four years ago. To her, Hazel was always Jace's awkward little sister nicknamed, "sprout," that tagged along in car rides, wore baggy clothing, and would be afraid of being the slightest bit tardy to class. So, of course, Caitlyn had to let her down gently before Hazel returned to her first year of college. Four years later, her best friend presents her with the idea of moving in with Hazel, who freshly graduated college. Obviously, she agrees, because what harm can little ole' sprout do? A lot. Because, Hazel is a lot different than what Caitlyn remembers. Bratty, tight clothing, and overall body of a goddess, all paired with the Hazel she knew and loved.

Hazel goes back to college with the intention to forget about Caitlyn and reinvent herself. Yet, when she's found herself in shitty situation where her apartment isn't available for the next year, her brother convinces her to move in with Caitlyn. What could go wrong?

Hailey never planned on moving back to her hometown. Since graduation, she's been holding everything together from a distance - working nonstop and sending money home to cover her father's growing medical bills. But when she suddenly loses her job, everything she's built unravels overnight. Desperate to find work closer to her parents and get back on her feet, she turns to the one person she trusts most - her best friend, Grace. She offers Hailey her spare room without hesitation, but there's only one complication. Emily. Grace's older sister has recently moved in with her, freshly out of a relationship that left its mark; and she's nothing like Hailey remembers. Quiet, protective, and impossible to ignore. Living under the same roof turns their familiarity into something far more dangerous, and it only takes one late night for everything to shift. They agree to forget it ever happened, but the problem is, neither of them wants to. It was supposed to be temporary, but the longer Hailey stays, the harder it becomes to ignore the truth: falling for Emily might cost her the one friendship she can't afford to lose.

This book may NOT be reproduced, reposted, copied, or translated in any way unless you receive permission directly from the author. Felicity Rose Bennett has everything the world thinks she wants-chart-topping songs, magazine covers, fans who call her perfect. But the world doesn't know she's hiding. Burned out, suffocated by fame, and haunted by a stalker no one else knows about, Felicity flees to her mothers' quiet Toronto lake house just to breathe for the first time in years. She doesn't expect Harriet Johnson to walk through the door with a suitcase and a key. Harriet has spent the last four years running from her past-alcohol addiction, heartbreak, and the memory of the only girl she's ever loved. Sober now and fighting her way through med school, she only wanted a quiet summer. She didn't know Felicity would be here. She didn't know that sharing a roof again would feel like falling into a storm she thought she'd survived. They were childhood best friends turned teenage lovers-until Harriet broke Felicity's heart in the worst possible way. Now they're twenty-two, trapped by old history and new secrets, in the same house that once held their whispered dreams and first kisses. The deal is simple: her side, my side. But nothing about Felicity and Harriet has ever been simple. Not the history, not the wanting, not the way every look feels like a dare and every brush of skin threatens to set them both on fire. In the thick of July, in a house full of memories, two girls who once had everything will have to decide if second chances are worth the risk-and if loving each other is worth surviving for.

Princess Yasmin caught my chin- and claimed my mouth. The taste of stolen sweetness dissolved into heat as she kissed me-slow, consuming, deliberate. Not hunger. Control. My breath faltered. Her fingers slid to my throat, light but owning, while her other hand caged me against the wall. I didn't move. Couldn't. She took her time-every press of her lips deeper, sharper, undoing me piece by piece. A broken sound slipped out before I could stop it. She pulled back just enough, her breath hot against mine, eyes dark with something dangerous. "You think you're clever," she murmured. Her lips brushed mine again-soft, taunting. "You're not." Then she stepped away, composed, untouchable. "Next time," she said, voice cold again, "touch my dessert, and I won't stop at your lips." ❃❀✿❁✾✤ Princess Yasmin of Solmira-calm, powerful, and known for her striking beauty-is not someone people get close to.

[Book 2 in the Of Course series] The first time Emryn Ashford held a guitar, she dreamed of a career in music. After headlining the Bi-Con series in Nashville as an out artist, with the help of her talent scout (and newly promoted close friend) Hannah Nelson, her singles have climbed the charts. Now garnering attention from all angles and soaring to newfound heights, things can only go up from here. That is, until Emryn learns of her father's sudden death. Taking a step away from the spotlight, despite the growing fame, it feels like ambition and inspiration somehow slipped through her fingers. Returning to her small hometown with only 3 stop-lights and a McDonalds still stuck in the 90's, Emryn is unsure of where her life is headed. How is she going to get out of this slump, and does she even want to? And, why the hell is Mallorie Rivers playing piano in the only coffee shop in town? Hadn't she set her sights on New York? The last thing Emryn knew, she went running to Juilliard. Mallorie Rivers was done with Eddie Shaffer's shit. Period. And him not showing up, yet again, for their gig, was her final straw. And that's not including the fact that they've been on-again, off-again since they were nineteen. Before that pivotal moment her life changed forever. She loved her piano so much, it was a comfort these days. Keeping her steady, solid and holding together when it felt like the world was trying its best to tear her apart. She's forgotten the thrill of an audience or those wide open spaces where notes echo. Where she was and what she was doing now is safe. And her old dreams? They were simply just that-dreams. And dreams change. But why is Emryn Ashford picking up Eddie's guitar? Didn't she have a concert or a massive crowd of fans to greet?
