Brother's Betrayal by darkest_depths

"It wasn't that he could have been, that he was, a beast; it was that he didn't tell me. He would've let us marry, have kids and a future, without telling me, so I left. And here I am." * Anya's life was proof that living can only be perfect when the happiness is built on lies. Lies such as her relationship was one without secrets, that it was her choice to fall in love and that she was going to be marrying a man, not a beast. Someday, her happy life was bound to be ruined by the lies. Ruined in ways which led to her fleeing and hiding, hoping that despite the man she loved was slightly different, he'd never find her if she ran far enough. Inevitably though, the wolves would come knocking and they're knocking for her. {cover credit to -blurryface} UNEDITED

Book 1: The Child of Starlight by Jaimeeking1

Comments appreciated 😁 Book 1 of the 4 book series: Ex Navy Seal Chaos Alabaster Frost was a shapeshifter born in a world of monsters, myth, and fantasy. A world where mortal eyes are now blind to the truth about the creatures and beasts that dwell among them... His life was a constant adventure, he couldn't complain...but Elemental-Guardians, and an growing darkness that's hell bent on destroying the earth, now that's just crazy! Come with me and hear the extraordinary story of how Chaos came to meet the Elemental Guardians and the little five year old girl named Aurora, The Child of Starlight! Warning! There is mature content later on in the story. It's not explicit but if your under sixteen at certain parts I suggest you proceed with caution. Mentioning of PTSD, blood, violence, sexually implied content at certain moments. But again it's not anything crazy explicit but I'm still being cautious! I'd hate to have anyone lose their innocence! None of the song videos in this story are mine. Poems are mine artwork at the end also mine

The Silver Fighter | ✓ by LiseR05

"I already killed your mother, Cam." As the words left my enemy's mouth like a mocking sneer, I growled under my breath at the mention of my old name. Memories started to boil up that I had been wanting to squash deep into my heart. Bad memories. "As you can guess, I'm here to finish the job." He continued with that ever-present sinister smirk on his face. And in that moment, a sudden burst of confidence just appeared within me. Or blatant stupidity. 'I'll take either one.' I silently admitted to myself. I rolled my eyes at his so-called 'threat', not really intimidated in the least. "Yeah, like that went so well the first time. The first time, you fucked up enough to get caught by the police." I pointed out. "The second time, your grown-ass men got their asses handed to them by two teenagers." I snorted at him. "Your odds aren't looking too good here, Berti." ~•~ Losing her father? Lovely. Getting in a car accident with her aunt, uncle, and cousin and being the sole survivor? Fantastic. Losing her mother because a deranged psychopath holds a grudge even better than The Grinch? Amazing. Being ostracized from her own family save from her paternal grandparents, and getting the blame for her mother's death? Cherry on top of the cake. Having to make sure three idiotic twats don't get themselves killed because they couldn't mind their own bloody business? Bloody hell, that's an entire ice cream cake with ten pounds of gummy bears. ~•~ Join Grace Stanton as she faces her demons and the demons of her past all while trying not to commit murder against her three new friends. Fun times. (First book in the Gilded series) ~•~ [#1 Streetracer - 4/21/21] [#1 Gangs - 9/16/21] [#1 Boxer - 9/12/21] [#1 Fighter - 12/11/21] [#2 Boxing - 9/3/21] [#1 Girlpower - 2/12/21]

Ayn's Healing by AMHillmann

Ayn is a witch with healing powers. Shapeshifters have killed her parents and the only animals she cannot speak with are wolves. When she graduates from the Teaching Clan and finds out that she has to cross the River and live in the Wolves' Mountains for one year, she is less than amused. Kari, first-born shapeshifter Alpha, almost lost his wolf after the death of his mate. He could rise again and become the pack leader if only he would complete his training ...and find another suitable Luna. When he realizes that his second chance is his mother's guest, a daydreaming stubborn witch from across the River, he is less than amused. The bond may be a strong force, but can a witch walk the Wolves' Way and face the dangers it is paved with? **** "I need to stop..." I sigh, catching her wrist before her fingers reach the back of my neck, and I untangle her arm from me. She lingers on the recliner but now there is a big gap between our bodies. The warmth she left on my skin is quickly dissipating in the spring night. "Fine." Ayn stands and searches my eyes. Her scowl has my wolf whimper in submission and makes me curse my self-imposed hard line. "I am going to need your hoodie," she orders, stretching her hand out to me. "What?" I exclaim, briefly shocked by both the tone and the content of her words. My hands however are already executing her command, unzipping my jacket. "The last time I was able to sleep, I was covered with your hoodie. Your scent is comforting." She states it plainly as if it would be an obvious and broadly known fact. Like the Earth being round. Like two being a prime number. #1 in Healer - December 2021 #7 in Lycan - December 2022 ~95 000 words Cover photo by Jr Korpa via Unsplash Cover photo by Marc-Olivier Jodoin via Unsplash hi

❝ Let's rule a Kingdom, shall we? ❞ •○• When human slave turned Fae Handmaiden, Cara Arnel found herself in the Kingdom she had initially been fleeing to, alive, breathing and waking up with changes both physically prominent and mentally revealing, she could no longer ignore her ominous visions. •○• The guilt of Seraphima's last memory weighed heavily on Cara, devastating her just as much as Arion while Damien was itching to get a glimpse of his Soulbound and Lucien's walls of ice were chipping away. With her Alpha King pulling her in his orbit, came truths Cara finally uncovered. She soon realized that every person she'd met so far was crucial to the answers she'd sought. But the surprises in the power-play, the lies, the deceit, the politics, and various Royals soon failed to have their intended frazzling effect on enlightened Cara unlike those around her with each passing day. Unfortunately enough, the courtesy of the answer to who she was did not extend to the four alluringly dark pieces of her heart. It was four protective males that lusted for answers while their hearts tore apart in search of a feeling that was eating them alive. Meanwhile, threats of Killian kept rising as he steadily grew in his dormant powers and army. Cara could no longer stay still what with new alliances forming and old promises broken, both allies and foes warring. She knew there was no escaping the plans for the future laid out so brazenly. It was time to start preparing. But making choices is never easy. Thing was....this time around, Cara was much more prepared. Just not for the strikes her heart would have to take in the process. •○• BOOK 2 in the Mystic Bonds series. DO NOT READ before reading Book 1.

The Reaching By Martha Swann by MarthaSwann

England, 1981. Lia is a monster: a sunshine, people-pleasing monster who has poisoned her mother. Not on purpose, but still, it's enough to make her hate her own skin. She needs help to find a cure - the docs are doing precious little. And to make things worse, the only person she thinks can help, sullen and withdrawn Gem Hawker, hates her. Because Gem is a stickler for rules, and Lia has unwittingly broken a big one: don't mess with the Hawkers. But as the two investigate the poison, Lia starts to unearth shocking details of a hidden community of dragonfly shifters who are prepared to kill in order to preserve their anonymity. Lia must journey to independence and rebel against those closest to reach her calling. Lia finds herself emerging into a world where adults are casually cruel, bodies can't be trusted, and love is rarely simple or painless. As global warming shrinks the wilderness, wild things come close, closer than Lia could ever imagine. *New chapters (almost) daily *
