Revealing his lethal power could save her... or doom them both.

For two years, lone wolf Rix has protected Lily... and lied about his true feelings. Best to keep treating her like the younger sister he never had, because how could she possibly love a hulking great lummox like him? Then Lily vanishes, and Rix discovers someone is snatching liminal kids to use in covert experiments. Rix will risk it all to find Lily. And once he tracks her down his plan is simple: phase in, grab her, get the hell out. But Lily's merely bait for the real target: Rix.

Vaughn Kincaid, the man behind the experiments on lims, is a driven, sadistic bastard-even his own sons are horrified by the things he's done. He won't hesitate to torture Lily and use her as a means to control Rix. Rix's only ally is Kade, one of Vaughn's long-term lab-rats. But despite Kade's willingness to share information, he has an agenda and Rix isn't convinced he can be trusted. To keep Lily alive, Rix may have to reveal the dangerous liminal ability he's kept secret his whole life, and risk becoming the one thing he's vowed never to be again: a killer.

Eden's Eclipse by crash_course70

Rael Thorne was never meant to ascend. A rogue knight with a past as fractured as the illusions he wields, he has always been an outsider among the celestial warriors of Eden. But when the abyss comes for him, it does not take his life. Instead, it takes his heart. And yet... he still breathes. The divine halls of Valkyria Academy have fallen, overrun by an unfathomable darkness that Eden's warriors could not stop. Forced into exile, the surviving Archangels and Valkyrie knights retreat to Avalon, where druids weave life into the land itself. But even in the sanctuary of the wilds, Rael is an impossibility-a man who should be dead, carrying something unseen in the empty space where his heart once was. Something only the darkness can recognize. As whispers in a forgotten tongue begin to speak clearly in his mind, Rael realizes he is no longer the man he once was. The very warriors who once stood at his side now watch him with suspicion, none more than Aetheriel, the Frostbound Archangel, who believes Rael should have been executed the moment he survived. But even Aetheriel cannot deny the truth-Rael's survival was no accident. Something ancient has chosen him. Something terrible has already begun. And as Heralds of the abyss awaken, whispering of a prophecy long buried in time, Rael must answer the question that haunts them all: Was he spared to save Eden? Or to end it? A dark epic fantasy of celestial warfare, eldritch horror, and the thin line between fate and damnation. Fans of morally complex heroes, divine magic, and the creeping dread of the unknown will find themselves drawn into a world where light and darkness have never been more uncertain.

Mate," Xavier growled, the single word dripping with disdain rather than affection. Felipe immediately stepped forward. "No," he said firmly, his voice steady despite the fear prickling at the edges of his resolve. "You already have a mate, Xavier. Hazel." "Your already mated? I can smell her on you" Margie spat, overwhelmed by the fact that her mate is the alpha king and that he has already chosen someone even before he knew her. Xavier's expression didn't falter, but his eyes briefly flicked to Felipe before returning to Margie. "You're not worthy of me," Xavier sneered at Margie, his voice cold and cutting. "You're weak-pathetic. I don't want you, mortal." 💥 Margie's every waking moment is consumed by one person: Xavier, the powerful and ruthless alpha king. She's obsessed with him, her desire for him a burning fire that threatens to destroy her from the inside out. But Xavier doesn't want her.

She's unable to eat, unable to sleep, unable to think of anything else but him. Will Margie's all-consuming desire for Xavier ultimately be her downfall, or will she find a way to make him hers? Dive into the twisted world of Forever Scarred, where obsession, rejection, and desire collide in a tale of heartbreak and devastation.
