On the verge of going broke in an oppressed galaxy, super-criminal Jax Davis makes a deal with an offworld crime boss to get rich--but when the Blackwatch captures their most wanted man, Jax must rely on a team of prisoners to escape the grip of General Calhoun.
-----------------------------

Life in the galaxy is good for an outlaw in these strange times. 

Dissent is growing in the major powers, the dominant force of the Blackwatch battles rebels at home and across their colonies while struggling to maintain their expansion. Their inattention has led to the boom of an intergalactic criminal underworld, as police actions grow more and more difficult. Further increasing the pressure, Blackwatch forces have begun to be lost on voyages into the "black sectors" of the map. Mounting rumors stoke the flames of rebellion. 

As far as Jax Davis is concerned, this era will never end. For Jax, nothing truly ends.

Home (A Jax Teller/ Sons Of Anarchy Fanfiction) by ree_louise

I freeze at the sound of the all to familiar woman's voice, a voice I haven't heard in twelve years. I swallow and shake my head, gathering my thoughts, "Hey Gemma." "How're you darlin'?" She asks. "I'm good," I lie, "How did you get this number?" I ask, feeling my hands shake. "Clubs got connections, but that don' matter." She says dismissively. "How're you Gemma?" I ask, all of a sudden neverous. "I'm fine Darlin' but that's what I was calling you about." She says and I hear something in her voice. "What is it?" I ask, wondering what's going on. "It's Jax baby." She says and the breath leaves my body, immobilising me. "Baby, I need you to come home." She states. Emily Carter hadn't been home in over twelve years, leaving behind everything she loved.

THE EYES | TOM KAULITZ by mechanicallbride

21 year old Victoria Moretti, is an assassin. She is an independent woman that doesn't rely on a man to do anything. She thinks they are a waste of time and that they are egotistical or thinks highly of themselves, that all they do is sit around waiting to be laid on. The only exception she has for men is if she needs to have relationships with them for her missions. Her hatred towards men began due to her trauma that was caused by her father who abused her mother, her, and her younger sister. Victoria always hated how her father would treat the girls in the house, she never truly understood why he did the things he did but she was always to scared to question it, scared that if she would say anything her father would have an outburst of rage from the sudden question. So she never said anything she kept her mouth closed until something would change her life in a positive or negative way. But one day after one of her missions her boss called her telling they have to have a little talk over some dinner. Reluctantly she had to accept it due to it being her boss. Her boss told her she's going to have a partner due to her next mission being a difficult one and you physically can't do it only with one person. Her partner being Tom Kaulitz. She was mad at her boss because she knew that he knew about her problems with men and her background with them, but her boss simply didn't care on what she has to say since he's the one making the change. - "𝐈𝐓'𝐒 𝐈𝐍 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐄𝐘𝐄𝐒.

Love is Blind- Fenrys Moonbeam (TOG) by x_lyndon_x

I lean close enough that our lips brush when I speak. "He isn't worth it." I say, but he doesn't look convinced. I smirk as an idea pops in my head. "If you behave...we can do whatever you want tonight." His eyes widen, and a wicked smile grows on his face. He pulls back slightly, looking me in the eye. "Whatever I want?" He asks, and I grin wider, nodding. "Whatever you want." **** Jax has never had what would be considered an "easy" life. She's been beaten, tortured, and hunted. Yet she's survived it all, and came out stronger because of it. Now, she's facing an entirely new challenge. A court of the strongest warriors known to man, and she's somehow made her way into the middle of them. And she's running blind. *** MAJOR TW: This story contains MANY mature themes, and there will not be warnings at the beginnings of chapters.

𝐁𝐋𝐈𝐒𝐒𝐅𝐔𝐋 𝐂𝐇𝐀𝐎𝐒 | SPINOFF by -eroticsaint

𝐌𝐀𝐑𝐂𝐄𝐋𝐋𝐀 𝐂𝐑𝐈𝐒𝐓 (ANGEL) Older. Scary. Silent. Damon Lars was always lurking in the shadows, a sinister presence that scared me. It would be oblivious for me not to notice him even in the darkest areas. He was there. Maybe invisible to others, not to me. My brother's best friend, Damon, was notorious for his dark reputation. While I immersed myself in books, I could feel his gaze upon me. Sometimes, I feel him notice me too. No one knows what happens when all my brother's friends are busy. I saw him. Every day. And I vowed to keep my mouth shut. My secret. And his. STELLA RUSSEL (PRINCESS) Rich. Entitled. Bratty. That was me, and I'm proud. I hated Grayson Meadows. He constantly treated me as if I were a spoiled rich brat - which I was - our fathers being business partners made us around each other a lot. Despite his mocking, he always protected me, causing me to feel uneasy in his presence. If I harbor such animosity towards him, why do I find myself concerned for him too? I hate him. But I fucking need him more. LILIANA ROSELINE (DOLLFACE) Jaxon's intense gaze always sent shivers down my spine, as if he could see right through me. He was Marci's violent older brother, a brooding figure with a penchant for chaos. Danger seemed to emanate from him like a dark aura. Yet, amidst his menacing aura, he would fixate his eyes on me, as if I were the epitome of perfection. But could a girl, so perfect, ever be enticed by a man like him? Yes, because I'm so deep down in love with him. AVERY RAVEN (LITTLE DEVIL) Alessio, the loud figure, refers to me as the 'little devil' and feigns animosity towards me. He says he hates me a lot. However, deep down, I am aware that his feelings are quite the opposite. In the dead of night, when the world slumbers, he clandestinely dials my number on each of my birthdays, evoking an unsettling sensation within me. Until last summer, when everything went south and I ruined Alessio's life
