Set in the year 3037, there are only six hundred known squids left in the oceans -- each breed having both a female and a male due to careful preservation techniques. After successfully breeding the last two Vampire Squids, Musham and Liros, scientists noticed something strange begins to happen to Musham. As they continue to keep her under careful observation, she suddenly vanishes. With only a few months until her eggs hatch, and she inevitably perishes, scientists must race against time to try and find the eggs to bring them home safely.

There is a price on her head, and she was already sold to a breeding house once but she escaped. There are only two known hybrids on the planet of Wolfeen. But Tati didn't choose this. None of the hybrids did. She was abducted from Earth by an alien species known as the Ghoul who conduct inhumane experiments on humans in the name of the almighty dollar for a woman named Andrea Webb, former director of the agency K9 before her illegal trafficking of altered humans was revealed by K9 agents. Zeus is a Wolfeen tech agent working for unit 10 of the K9 agency. He and his team broke the case on hybrids when one of his fellow agents, Brock fell for one of the hybrids. Apparently much like the female Wolfreen, the human hybrids altered with Wolfeen DNA react exactly the same as born Wolfeen's. Only to a much more dangerous degree. When a hybrid meets their fated mate, they go into heat, and because they can't handle it, if they aren't mated quickly the heat can cause permanent damage to their brain function, internal organs, and even death. As if that threat isn't enough, Webb is still hunting the hybrids under K9 protection.Complete

When Cate Choi finds herself on the wrong side of immortal vampires, she finds herself under the protection of a handsome Empath who just happens to be one of the most powerful Immortals in the world. ***** Cate Choi thought her biggest challenge in Oxford, England would be deciphering ancient manuscripts and surviving on bad coffee-not dodging vampires. But her thesis research has accidentally unearthed a secret so dangerous that an ancient vampire will do anything to keep it hidden. Enter Morgan MacNee, an immortal Empath cursed with the power to channel every supernatural ability around him. He's a broody researcher who keeps to himself, battling the chaos of his gift in carefully constructed isolation. But when Cate crashes into his world with her razor-sharp wit and fearless curiosity, he's drawn to her like a moth to flame. When vampires set their sights on Cate, Morgan intervenes-not just out of duty, but because something about her pulls him out of his self-imposed exile.

Yet, the ripples of a changing world beyond have begun to seep in, bleaching color and darkening minds--but not Dea Rhodoreef's mind. Who said life's easy for a teen about to graduate high school? Even more so when one is a pastel goth gamer mermaid trying to scrape by in a mobile home with a grumpy grandmother who's always complaining about the "human infestation". Maybe the troubled city-state will embrace a new dawn when merpeople and humans coexist--a future that Dea is determined to work hard for. Noble causes aside, just getting to see a notorious human is number one on her bucket list. Now, as if school, a part-time job and building a political career aren't enough, a chonky sea cow has been following her for days.

The Air Out Of [Wattys2018 shortlist]
*wattys 2018 shortlist* *writer's awards sci-fi winner* It all started with an accident. Through vast consolidation begets a single empire bordering on the mere idea of war with an enemy threatening to destroy its entire existence, starting from the inside. Many call it tyranny, others, vengeful menace, but it's taking them down. One by one. A series of events follow, including a spy, a plan destined to fail and a desperate offer that puts everything on the line. She wasn't what they were hoping for. But they take what they can get. Once rejected by the place they called home, five estranged teens jump at the opportunity for an escape. Thrust into an unknown underwater society at random, it's a gamble for life and death, win or lose. Fast forward to friendship, rivalry, loyalty, borderline sorcery, and a second home that'll change their lives as they know it. But as the days grow by, and the game of cat and mouse breaks its final straw, blending in a world not meant for them is not as easy as it seems. Especially when you try to save a colony whilst saving yourself. *this story is/will be rewriting. [minimal changes] The plot will generally be the same, I'm just removing some plot holes and grammatical inconsistencies* #974 dysotopian - out of 1.8k stories #442 science fiction - out of 5.9k storiesComplete
Moon Cured
A post apocalyptic shifter series that includes fated mates. ___________________________________________________ Seventeen years ago, one irresponsible scientist accidentally created poison that works like a highly contagious virus when trying to create a weapon. Unfortunately, there are no symptoms, you only know you have it when all the bones in your neck break and your head falls off and your body then collapses to the ground and crumbles into dust floats away with the non-existent wind. It wiped out a little over half the human population of the earth. So now we all live in small towns with many restrictions and laws to make sure nobody in the town gets poisoned or by yourself to scavenge and hunt for food. I chose the latter for me and my family. I am Alcmene Argent, and this is my story. ___________________________________________________ None of these pictures are mine, full rights to their creators.Complete
