Mara Abaiya may be a shapeshifter by birth, but she's never learned to trust the dragon living under her skin. Instead, she's spent most of her adult life mastering a dangerous kind of psychic magic, determined to one day erase her own identity and forever destroy the beast that hides in her blood. But just weeks before her planned self-execution date, Mara finds herself tied up with a group of desperate young adventurers, accidentally trapping herself somewhere between their misplaced fondness of her and her growing feelings for a member of the party. Combined, it's enough to make her question not only her own self-hatred, but also her definition of what it truly means to be a monstrosity.
*Updates will be sporadic, I imagine.
**This story is very rough in my head, so I'll be editing / tweaking chapters as I go along.

The Dark Side of the Moon
"Fuck, baby. You can't say things like that to me. I want to, also. Trust me." His hand snakes down my body until he enters two of his fingers into my wet center. I can only moan in response. "However," he kisses my neck possessively, finding the right spot to drive me crazy. "I need to build you up to that." He pushes his fingers in and out of me, hitting deeper and deeper as his strokes become longer and harder and faster. "You feel that? My fingers deep in your pussy that's dripping for me?" He licks the side of my neck as my breaths come out in short pants. "My dick is going to stretch you out so much more. When I finally fuck you, you're going to be sore for days. And you're going to love it." ---------- Thea Brooks, an 18-year-old college student, lives her life by a schedule.

Rejecting the Alpha
I glared up at him my eyes narrowed, "Excuse me?" I was beyond livid by the words that just came out of his mouth. My glare didn't falter when Parker towered over me, clenching his jaw while trapping me against his desk. "You heard me." Parker's voice was low and intimidating that it made me feel so small. But I wasn't going to let him get to me. Standing up taller, I snapped, "I will not be your personal toy, available for you to do just as you please! I do not want to be held captive against my will, and not even have a say in anything. To be honest, I don't even want a mate." "You will do everything and anything I say, do you hear me?" Parker growled grabbing my chin and forcing me to look at him. Without even thinking I said the first thing that came to my head but meant every word. "I, Jasmine Davis, reject you Alpha Parker Mason, as my mate." * Jasmine Davis is the daughter of the Beta of the Moonlit Waters Pack.
