A short story written for the Red Feather Award Summer 2019 Writing Contest. @RedFeatherAward
Also a first draft-
The gates between the world has been opened.
Creatures long forgotten have been released.
Creatures good... and evil.
Creatures seeking revenge.
Grizela West (Griz) is definitely not normal. She doesn't even look human, which led to her being thrown out of home at an early age.
After accidently killing a person (she closed a lid on a bin that was later emptied with a man inside), she is on the run from everything she has known for most of her life. The people who she has grown up with, who has helped her, are hunting her.
They aren't the only ones.
A being, one of those who has been imprisoned until being released, wants revenge. It won't stop until it dies, or until those who it hunts is dead. After finding a scent that is different but similar to its own, and to those it hunts, it will search far and near for the owner.

In the Blood Moon Rising pack, the Luna recently has given birth to twins, Blake and Kole Michelson. In a enemy pack, Silver Moon Pack, Samantha Rose has yet to shift on her 16th birthday. 2 years later and she is the omega of her cruel pack.

What happens when their is an unspoken prophecy everyone forgot about, but is the most important prophecy of them all? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I realize that both boys are trying to fight with their wolves for control. "When do I get to meet you wolves?" I ask. "Whenever you want. Just not right now," Blake says. "We would lose control and they will take you right here right now." "What are your wolves saying?" I ask. "To smash you to the wall and pound you, so you won't be able to walk for the next week," Kole says. I look into his eyes to see them pitch black. I know that I am talking to his wolf. "I'm Tyler, Kole's wolf. It's so good to finally meet the love of my life." "It's nice to meet you Tyler," I say. I look over into Blake's eyes to see them matching Kole's. "What's your name?" "Alex," he responds. His eyes look over my body. "Your are so beautiful princess. Please let us mark you. Please," he begs. "Alex, that is enough." I look into Kole's eyes to see them back to normal. Alex whispers in my ears, "one day, we will go so rough with you and you will be screaming our names." I shiver under his words. He smirks knowing the effect he has on me.

Her Mate - Olivia (The Gray Wolves Series #1)
Suddenly, I feel a hand that intertwines mine. The touch is warm but still not enough to comfort me after the news I've just got. I feel someone is leading me out of the office. Nothing is really clear to me. I barely see my parents, Julie and Eli's face as the hand keeps on pulling me away from them. No more links with Elijah. I don't know if I closed my mind or if he did. But I can't feel him anymore. My feet follow the lead. I raise my head and I see that the Prince is calmly leading me to the stairs. Before we start to climb the stairs, I feel a hand on my lower back while the other is still intertwined with mine. The Prince looks at me and no emotions can be read on his face. Does he have a heart? Can lycan love as gently as wolves? A wolf would be difficult to live with as a human. How is it going to work with a lycan? Is it even possible? I've never heard of such a thing. What has Moon Goddess done? Olivia is the daughter of the Blue Lakes Pack's Alpha and twin sister of the soon-to-be Alpha. Despite her Alpha bloodline, Olivia never got the chance to meet her wolf. Without a wolf, Olivia has the choice to stay in her pack or travel the world and live among humans. But the day she turns 20, when her brother becomes the new Alpha, nothing goes as expected. When some rebellious wolves threaten to attack, the Royal Lycan Family decides to send one of the Princes to take care of the situation. What happens when a kind Wolf-less girl meets a mysterious Lycan Royal Prince? One thing is sure: Olivia's journey will not be the one she expected.

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
Lupine
Shifters have lived in secret for centuries, but when they begin to be cannibalized, a rogue must leave her home and confront the monsters who changed her to stop the murders. Oleda has never lived with a Pack. When she was attacked by a wolf at twelve, she never expected to become one herself. Out of fear that she'd hurt those around her, Oleda fled into the wilderness to tame the beast insider her. A decade later her life as a lone wolf in Minneapolis was becoming hard. Human news filled with murders, people attacked by wolves or figures in the dark and pulled away from friends in broad daylight before the bodies were found in pieces... if at all. Only Oleda knew that monstrous creature was like her. In an effort to find it and save more humans from such a gruesome end, she'll need to find a pack willing to help. This is war and in war lone wolves die. This is the first work I've put on Wattpad since high school (and those are rather tragic). Anything else you see is old as hell, but I really wanted to get back into writing for myself. Enjoy!Complete
