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.

The Lion King In The Human World Part 2
My little sister loves Lion King and dared me to write something along those lines. She's annoying, and after a few months of bugging me, I gave in. I wrote a story that was too long for just one book, so here's part two. All Lion King animals are now people, blah, blah, blah. If you haven't read the first book, please do. You will not understand any of this. Still, please enjoy whether you've read the first book or not. Don't complain to me if you don't understand what's going on. #1 in Beste as of Dec 17, 2021Complete

Lion King and the tiger
I peeked from behind the rocks, small and cautious, watching the lions for the first time. Their golden fur glowed in the sun, and their roars sounded so different from the jungle calls I knew. I didn't understand them at first - why they walked together, how they seemed to know what each other was thinking, or why they stayed so close to each other. I wanted to be like them - part of something bigger, strong and brave. I was a tiny white tigress, scared and small, but my heart ached to understand this strange, golden world and the lions who lived in it. A/N: I do NOT permit any kind uf usage of my story for podcasts, youtube or any other kind...as well as Translations. This is a Lion King fanstory hope you enjoy!

Whiskers
Book 4 of the Cross-Shifter Series. Can be read as a stand-alone but might be confusing at the beginning for a bit.) Being captive for years has soured Palace's outlook on just about everything. He sat in a rusty hauling container for weeks at a time, missing his big brother terribly, the only person he'd ever had in the world for so long, only to be sold to disgusting people who wanted him for illogical reasons. Over that time, he became a killer. He didn't like it at first, but soon it became second nature. Besides, in his new world, where his original master only viewed him as another giant check, and those he sold him to saw him as their next horrible fetish until he ripped their throats out, he found little reason to behave favorably. So, when a lion shifter crosses his path right before he is likely to be sold again, and actually treats him like he wasn't just a piece of meat to try and use, Palace isn't quite sure how to handle him.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
