"What do you make of all of it?" I asked Joseph, eager to hear an opinion other than my own. He lowered his voice further, saying "I would've believed it to be a foolish nightmare if Benjamin hadn't sworn on the good book what he saw. I warned him of blasphemy, but he said that the Lord knew as well as him what it was he had seen." "Wolves don't stand on their hindquarters," I replied rather bluntly. "Perhaps he saw something, but he saw no wolf." "No. Not a wolf," he replied. "Any fool knows it wasn't a mere wolf that came in the night for Benjamin's livestock. 'Twas a beast. A werewolf, most likely."
Rooted in themes of religion and fear, The Wolf tells the story of a colonial New Englander's pursuit of a beast that has plagued the town that has exiled him. On the promise of forgiveness from his countrymen, he reluctantly sets off to hunt the creature, only to encounter something more horrific than could be imagined.

Alpha Orion
Reylin has survived what most could not. Fierce, free-spirited, and unbreakably strong-willed, she's one of the last humans still alive and free. She was only thirteen when the Lycans-monsters cloaked in flesh and fangs-descended from the shadows and took everything. Her parents. Her home. Her safety. Now, ten years later, Reylin is a warrior in one of the last hidden human settlements, with only her younger brother left to protect. She refuses to bow. Refuses to break. And she'd rather die than become a slave to the beasts who ruined her world. But survival gets harder by the day. The Lycans are not just strong. They're fast, brutal, and natural-born predators. Since the Great War, they've established a merciless new order-one where humans are hunted, enslaved, or wiped out entirely. And Reylin's time is running out. When her village is raided by Lycan soldiers, she risks everything to protect her brother only to be captured by the infamous Alpha of the North. Alpha Orion. Crowned in blood and forged in war, Orion is one of the ruthless Alpha who led the Lycans to victory. A cold and calculated killer, he sees humans as weak, defiant creatures undeserving of breath. He doesn't hesitate to crush rebellions, burn settlements, and extinguish hope. Until her. The defiant human girl who won't bow, who tried to kill him. The one his beast calls mate. Orion is disgusted by the bond, repulsed by the idea of being tied to a human, but his instincts scream to claim her, protect her, destroy anything that touches her. And when secrets from the war begin to surface, loyalty is tested, and bloodlines come into question, one thing becomes terrifyingly clear: He may hate her kind. But he will burn the world before letting her go.Complete

HUNTER |Book 1|
|Book one of the 'Hunter' Franchise| •COMPLETED• I didn't know how fast my life could change in a matter of hours but it did in the most twisted way it could. I didn't know the one person who I thought I could trust would turn me into a flesh eating beast in a matter of a second. I also didn't know I would be hunted down by the law and a hunter until I was killed for what I became. But I knew if I was going to be killed or turned in, I wasn't going down without a fight for freedom. I just always believed that werewolves were just a part of fiction from horror stories and film, but now it all seemed like I was just in a horror film that wouldn't end.Complete

Coy didn't know the difference between herself and her pack members. As far as she was concerned they were the same, they were family.

Then along came the strange wolf that was even bigger than she was. He smelled of the forest, humans and wolves. He moved in a way that intrigued her even though all the wolves in her pack moved just as beautifully. She was so drawn to him that she refused to allow the pack to attack him. But how could she get the pack to accept him when he was clearly so different from them? How could she get him to accept her pack when he didn't seem to want to even be there? Hours, days, weeks.

APOCALYPSE: DAWN
Hope is an amazing construct. Even at the worst times where hope seems to be lost, there's still a shimmer, a crack of light that paves the way for hope. The hope that maybe, just maybe we will fight our demons, and even win. Or the hope that we will evolve to something greater, or the hope that the world doesn't see us as monsters who we really are. The hope that we are free even if we are not. It's hope holding us together, keeping us tethered to our real selves. I want to say that this is a story about hope, but maybe it isn't or it's something more than that. In the near future in a fictional world, sort of real to the world we are in. We are drawn to the city of Vomir. A city drawn to darkness lurking by the very edges of it. But not the mob darkness the real darkness, the type of darkness that can fracture the world. Behind all of it stands Alphacorp. An organization hell bent, knee deep grinding to know and manipulate creatures DNA, and morphology. In their research they discover the Lycans. Yes those Lycans, the ones we know as a myth. This discovery changes everything from the identity of the company to its core morality. Lycans are caught in more of a battle against them. Everything changes from mind control, behavioural constraints, death manipulation, immoral experiments, all rolled up under the foundational bones of this company. No one in Vomir, humans, Lycans or survivors live in free will anymore. All hope seems to be lost. But yes even at the darkest times, the darkest rooms still a small shimmer of light, will find a way in the room, which at the end turn the whole room bright, illuminating even the outside. Welcome to my world, this story has been inspired by different aspects of life for not more than a decade now. This is the first of many hopefully.

COMPLETED - To Evelyn Schubert the thought of having a predetermined soulmate seemed a bit far-fetched.

When she meets Adam Deveraux, his primitive ways seem almost barbaric.
