Levi, a broken omega, has spent years trapped in the brutal world of werewolf trafficking, stripped of his name, his wolf, and his will to fight. He's been conditioned to obey, to serve, and to believe he's nothing more than an object-a slave marked by cruel hands. But when he's rescued by Maximus, the powerful and ruthless Alpha of a notorious wolf mafia, Levi is thrust into a new world, one filled with danger, intrigue, and an unexpected kind of love. Maximus, hardened by his position as the leader of a vast criminal empire, wasn't looking for a mate-especially not one as shattered as Levi. But the moment he finds the terrified omega, something inside him shifts. Determined to protect Levi and avenge the horrors done to him, Maximus vows to tear down the trafficking rings that sold wolves into slavery. As their bond deepens, Maximus discovers that Levi is much more Fragile than he appears to be, and together, they embark on a journey of healing, redemption, and revenge. But Levi's trauma runs deep, and the past refuses to let him go. Haunted by nightmares and struggling to trust his newfound freedom, Levi must learn to embrace his wolf, confront his darkest fears, and reclaim his identity. Maximus must do everything in his power to help his mate break free from the chains of his past. Fragile is an emotional story of love, power, and the unbreakable bond between two wolves fighting to reclaim their lives-and their love-from the darkness.

[COMPLETED] [2025 Wattys Honorable Mention] Danny's neighbor should be illegal. There's no way someone should be that attractive. They've lived next door to each other for over a year. As a skinny, clumsy, sweater-loving, Modern Poetry professor, Danny never believed someone like him could catch the eye of someone as perfect as Brett. But when Danny (accidentally) RSVPs to a destination wedding he never wanted to attend, he realizes he's in a bind-he needs a plus-one. And somehow, Brett becomes his unexpected solution. Brett's MMA career was on the brink of greatness until an injury stopped him cold. Now, trying to reclaim his spot in the octagon and live up to heavy expectations, the last thing Brett expected was to build a friendship with the neighbor he's been crushing on. However, Danny is undeniably gorgeous and way out of his league, so he needs to maintain realistic expectations. But, when Danny needs a date for a destination wedding, Brett's first instinct is to offer his help. Being his fake boyfriend would not be a hardship. A romantic beach, a fake relationship, and one bed... what could go wrong? Genre: Contemporary Romance / Fake Relationship / Friends to Love / HEA Guaranteed / Dual POV There will be mature scenes between two men that I will mark accordingly. These scenes are intended for mature audiences. This is a spin-off of the worlds of King of Hawkings/Death & Tequila and A New Song/Beats of the Heart, but it is a stand-alone novel, so reading the other novels is unnecessary. However, some old characters will appear, so you may enjoy it more with the full background.

"I didn't ask to be this way!" "What's wrong with it?" Kegan laughed dryly, amazed by the stubbornness of the Alpha. "What's wrong with being weak and used as a breeding tool?

How are we supposed to make this work?" Kaerius asked, watching the boy sitting on the sand dunes. "You're not. We're not designed to fall in love with them.

Cole's life has never been his. For as long as he could remember, his one job in life was to play the role of a copycat. He's had to pretend to be his older brother as soon as his parents realized the two looked very alike to one another despite not being twins. His birth wasn't planned nor wanted so what better way to make use of an unwanted child than to constantly put their life in danger? He swears his parents had the most fucked up logic he's ever heard of but this is his life and it'd continue to be that way until the day one of his brother's assassins finally succeeded in killing him. Well, that's what he thought until he was kidnapped by the Azure Dragon's group and encountered their boss, Eros. Not caring much about who he was, Cole punched him. Yup, he punched one of the largest mafia groups in the U.S.' boss right in the face. But who knew that one punch would, instead of ending his life, change it? --------------- "I have to pee" I said monotonously to the guard in front of me. I could immediately tell he thought that I was hoping to be led to a bathroom so I can find an escape, but I didn't need a bathroom. The bucket would do just fine. And as expected, that's what was given to me. I had relieved myself a few times in the dingy little thing unfortunately but, rather that than piss myself. "You go in there" he said and I looked down at my tied legs. "How am I supposed to pee with my legs tied?" I said and he looked at me confused. "My dick is small" I said holding up my pinky for emphasis and the guy gave me a disgusted look. "Make it quick" he said gruffly after untying my legs and helped me stand up. "Can you turn around?" I asked as I saw the man was just standing there. "No" he said. Whatever, his nose not mine. [Completed. 125k words]
