Mexican-american Stories

In the fog covered streets of 1920s South San Francisco, sixteen-year-old Elias is sent to live with his Aunt and Uncle after his parents are murdered protecting him from the Italian mob. But inside Hops, a warm café, cigar lounge, and hidden speakeasy glowing with enchanted paintings, sacred candles, whispered spells, and ancient Mexican brujería. Elias discovers a secret world buried beneath the city's fog. As spirits move through the walls and mysterious animal guardians awaken to his presence, Elias learns his bloodline is tied to powerful magic older than the city itself. Meanwhile, the Italian mob returns searching for Jean, a vanished pregnant woman accused of killing a mobster heir, and the missing child connected to their family. With danger closing in from both the living and the supernatural, Elias must uncover the truth behind his parents' deaths before the darkness hiding beneath South San Francisco finds him first.

However, some Holy Ones are envious of the thing, and some townspeople fear for their lives after he begins eating live animals and biting fingers off. Either way, Aniceto doesn't care.

A dark historical fiction set in 1930s Louisiana, where blood runs deeper than love, and the past never stays buried. In the shadowed swamps of the South, their love isn't just rare, it's dangerous. And for a Mexican Native American woman like Jenni Garcia, and a Creole man like Alastor Heartfelt it'sit feels nearly impossible. Hardened by trauma and hunted by the ghosts of her past, Jenni survives with a blade in hand and no faith in forgiveness. The world has taken everything from her. Her childhood, her safety, her people's dignity, and her love were left behind, only to be replaced by rage. Then comes Alastor Hertfelt, a Creole radio host with a velvet voice and eyes that have seen too much. He steps into her bloodstained path-unshaken, smiling, and unafraid to get his hands dirty. What begins as an uneasy alliance becomes something far more volatile: a bond forged in violence, obsession, and defiance. Together, they challenge the deep-rooted hate around them, from the law that scorns their love just for being from different backgrounds, to the brutal racism and personal trauma they have faced and that shaped them both. But the past doesn't die quietly. And the closer they grow, the more dangerous their love becomes. The world wants them silenced. Their bloodlines marked them. But in the dark, they've found each other, and they'll burn everything to keep it. A Hazbin Hotel AU Fanfiction
