RegularMisanthrope

Achilles is used to a life with rules and structure. Being attracted to men doesn't fit into what he considers structured. But he's used to burying things deep down, and this is just another item on the list. 

Xander crosses into his life, and he's completely outside the rules and the opposite of structure. Something about Xander makes Achilles' wolf sing, his blood jump and his heart soar, even if Xander is a man, even if he is a vampire. 

Innocuous meetings turn into a building attraction and Achilles wants to take the leap to be with Xander. Can he do it?

This is an entry for the open novella contest.

Ryker's Guide (Spicy) by WiskeySins

What happens after you've saved the world? Even if you are an all-powerful being or vampire or some cross of any supernatural creature you've come in contact with? Normal life, apparently. But living a long life and seeing societies and their concepts of relationships, sexuality, and love change throughout the centuries means that normal life is... subjective. This is the SPICY version of the story, mature for violence and sexually explicit scenes. Read responsibly. ;)

Possessing Sydney's Heart (manxman|| lgbtq) by notbackingdown

My life has never been roses and sunshine. I could go on and on about how I grew up in a broken household, a junkie prostitute for a mother who pimped me out to every paying customer that didn't mind sleeping with a minor. But no, this is really about me finding family. Being better than the example my mother set for me. This is about forgiveness with some trials along the way like getting knocked up by my boyfriend's brother Angelo, having Angelo find out six years after the fact, Angelo wanting to play 'Daddy' and not to mention my job as an exotic dancer just to list a few. Come on... you know you want to find out the dirty details... %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% Important My books are written explicitly for a MATURE AUDIENCE 18 YEARS AND OLDER.

True Mates: The Beginning (mxm) by ViviAnneHunt

Connor has always known that he has a true mate out there and that he is male. Even when nobody believed him, he defended his mate. Even when his father wanted him to mate a good female breeder, Connor said no, staying true to his mate. The more years passed, the harder it was for Connor, who just wanted to find his true mate, once and for all. And when he finally turned up, it was a surprise for Connor to discover that his mate was not as excited about the bond as Connor himself. What will Connor do? No trigger warnings. Rated mature for minimal sexual content and language. Tropes: gay romance, fated/true mates, shifters, werewolves, opposites, age gap, slow burn. This story is completed, however, not finished entirely. This is just the beginning of Connor and Jamie's adventure, and if you want me to continue it, let me know. If not, the story can stand on its own as it is, without anything further. It's up to you. :)
