It's been four years since Rin left everything behind. Four years in which her mind and heart have been at war, torn between her desires and duty. Assimilating within Malodza had been a struggle, but as time passed, Rin found herself mastering the artful, stealthy skills of the illustrious phantoms.
When she's sent on a mission way out of her league, Rin finds herself tangled in a web that only seems to bury her deeper within its confined spaces. The situation only worsens as she's forced to put her son's life in the hands of a man, a very ruggedly handsome man, she doesn't trust.
Rin's will to fight for those she loves is put to the test as she navigates the darkest, most cryptic streets of France with only her whit and training to keep her from falling victim to the notorious, badass feline: Pink Unicorn.

"Have you no sense of self-preservation?" he asked, seeming genuinely curious. "I do. But it's kind of low on my list of priorities.

Discovering the Ligon
Warning: This story is for mature audiences only. It contains language and scenes that would get this story rated R if it was a movie. It is also RH - reverse harem. Blurb: When you make friends as children, you imagine you'll stay friends forever. It's a childlike hope and guilelessness about the real world. I had that with Ryker, Ryan, and Zeke. But everything changed when we turned 15. Ryan left first. Distanced himself from our group. Then Ryker and Zeke. Ryker abandoned me to the gossip from the incident while Zeke watched me verbally, and sometimes physically, be harassed. No one cared. Not them. Not the adults, the protectors in the Pride. I was an outcast because of my birth. The abomination that shouldn't exist. Finally, my 18th birthday was coming up. I could leave. Be free from the ridicule and dirty looks. Snide comments. Until Ryker returned with a secret about me and all hell broke loose. The question is... Will the guys stay this time or leave me to face this secret alone?Complete

The story is being worked into an audiobook on Youtube via Text-to-Speech using ElevenLabs. Each chapter will eventually have a link. Or find me on Youtube at FaeSparksOfficial to listen to the book 1 playlist. Notes: Strong sexual content will begin in book two. Polyamory to be hinted in book one, but come to fruition later in the series (book three). Main themes will revolve around morality, culture, and legacy. *Will try to complete before 2025 Ambys* Cover by Canva.Complete
Ayn's Healing
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 hiComplete
