The time is 1935. The place is Great Britain. Ingonyama, or Yama, named after the Xhosa word for "lion", is a Rhodesian Ridgeback born different from the rest of his litter; he has no ridge running along his back. Since Yama's litter is being bred for show, humans only accept the ridged dogs, and threaten to have him culled, or worse. What will become of Yama, his litter, and his life? Inspired by the BBC One documentary Pedigree Dogs Exposed, Ridges of Doom delves into the inhumane practices of the past Kennel Club, some of which still exist today.
Disclaimer: Note that I am not attacking the Kennel Club in any way or fashion. Although I may disagree with how they are deciding to breed their dogs for the "perfect pooch", I don't hate them at all. This book, as it was set in 1935, isn't a way to speak out against the KC's practices nowadays. Please, after reading this, do NOT attack anyone who is affiliated with the KC. Also note that every human and dog in this book are fictional, as in they don't and never have existed in real life. Any resemblance to real persons is merely coincidental. Please and thank you.

Love and Beasts
Izabela is your average person. She lives in the world where there exist beastmen - humanoid creatures with animalistic features. Humans are afraid of their traits, and this caused a big conflict between humans and beastmen. That's why beastmen on a daily basis must be careful to not reveal their animalistic form. The girl tries to enjoy her life as much as she can. But what happens, when her two certain men confess to her? Will she be able to keep her life the same it was before? And why do everyone seem to hide something? You will know it by reading this book. So, I'm not good at writing romances and all that stuff. Not your everyday love story, full of swear words in any language and other stuff. If there are any grammar mistakes or wrong translations then I apologize on the spot. Also, this is my first story, so hope you enjoy it. English isn't my native language. Sorry if you consider it terrible too.Complete

Predator & Prey (Hybrid AU) [ONE-SHOT]
Limentio one-shot! :D Hybrid AU (Basically, Dimentio is a Naga and Mr.L is a Kitsune) WARNING: Contains VIOLENCE and also a bit of LIME. ----- Mr.L finds himself running through a zoo in the dead of night, and with several people chasing him. He doesn't remember how, when, where, and why this was happening, but he had an inkling that it had to do with him being a fox-human hybrid, aka a Kitsune. Mr.L runs and runs until he's backed up against one of the enclosures. In a last-ditch effort, he runs inside. Unfortunately for him, almost no one has made it out of that snake enclosure alive. The snake that lives there isn't known for being friendly, but he is known for playing with his food. ----- AN: This is mostly just fluff, angst, etc. There will be NO 🚫 LEMON 🍋! There will be mentions of LIME. However, I have happily written in all of the gushy and mushy kissing scenes. In case it wasn't obvious, this is boy x boy, so... ----- [If you're not seeing this on Wattpad, then THIS is an unauthorized copy!!! >:C]Complete
