"Littering, that's something that you can be sorry for."
"I needed to get it out of the way for a moment," He replied absently, pushing himself off of the pillar and I blinked at him confused as he walked around to stand before me. "I'll pick it up after this."
"After what-" I cut my own words off, my air catching as his warm breath fanned over my cheeks, the smell of him filling my nose. Intoxicating.
"You're beautiful you know." My cheeks burned.
"Like a thousand wildflowers," I said.
His hooded eyes were bright in the dim light, a content smile pulling at the corners of his lips when I spoke. Dad had said that once, I had nearly forgotten it. Forgotten what it felt like to feel loved.
"Like a thousand wildflowers," he echoed.

"How does it feel to know that you can fuck me, whenever and wherever you want?" My voice was breathless, a challenge taunting him. His hands crept up my back, fingers tightening around my neck. "Control what I wear," he growled as I speak, the pressure making me close my eyes, drowning in the submission. "What l eat."

Dragon Blood
"Do you remember calling me 'mate?'" he asked softly, pushing her wild curls away from her face. She blushed deeply, but he wouldn't let her look away. "You heard that?" He nodded with a smile. "It was the first thought she ever shared with me." Skylar pursed her lips. "She likes you very much." "What about you?" he teased gently. "How do you feel about me?" She set her jaw and once again managed to look down her nose at him while staring up at him. "Well... well, I'm rather fond of you, Orion." He let out a relieved laugh and pulled her into his chest again. "What a relief. I was worried it was just me." He nuzzled her temple, inhaling deeply, his dragon fully at peace. The words "I love you" were right on the tip of his tongue, but he knew it was too soon for that. He would have to hold them in just a little while longer.

Lost Without You
In the heart of the powerful Effendi household, two children once shared a destiny written long before they understood it. Born into a world of privilege, bound by family ties and an unspoken promise, their lives were shaped by love that never had the chance to grow in peace. But fate is never kind to fragile beginnings. A single tragedy shattered everything-families were destroyed, trust turned into ashes, and two souls were torn apart believing the other had been lost forever. He is not the same boy she once knew-time has carved him into something colder, harder, and unforgiving. She, on the other hand, carries the weight of a broken past, haunted by memories that refuse to fade and a present that keeps testing her strength. Shattered but still breathing, she learns that survival itself is a battle, yet even in her weakness she refuses to fall silent in front of him. Years later, destiny pulls them back into the same orbit, not as children of the past, but as strangers bound by a forgotten bond. He stands hardened by time, power, and silence. She stands unbroken, refusing to surrender to the coldness he now carries. What was once a promise becomes a battlefield of truth, where recognition is painful, love is uncertain, and nothing remains simple anymore.

Rescued from a brutal asylum where scientists sought to strip supernatural creatures of their power, she grew up among werewolves, but her true heritage remains a mystery, even to herself. Now at twenty, Amiriah's life takes an unexpected turn when she crosses paths with Kairos, the feared Dark Prince, cursed to never find his soulmate. Yet, against all odds, the curse shatters in her presence. Drawn to her in ways he cannot explain, Kairos keeps the truth hidden, unsure of how to tell her that she is not only his mate but also destined for a fate far greater than either of them imagined.

Doors unlock at her touch, spirits whisper her name, and long-sealed places reveal themselves to her alone. As ancient forces stir, the city's Elders watch her closely; some see her as a threat, and others see her as a fulfilled prophecy. But beneath the intrigue of Valeris, a far darker danger lurks.

The Blood Order
"Are you coming to bed firefly?" He says to me laying his hands over my waist joining me in looking over the city. "I want to look out for a little longer if that is alright?" I mumble hoping that he heard me anyways, I wasn't ready to walk into that bedroom, and I don't think I ever would be. "Of course, I'll be getting ready for bed, come in whenever you are ready." He says confidently and walks away leaving my waist cold something for which I am grateful. Especially when my mind burns with other more dangerous thoughts. The warmth that forever lingers in the air, never burning the skin, but always reminding about what is around us. I force air into my lungs feeling the unexpected warmth fill me. He stands in the room watching me even though he said he was getting ready for bed. He is worried about me, about me jumping. I have contemplated it I will admit, but he would stop me before I fell even two feet. I was stuck, and no one could save me. Not even myself, my fucking weak self. His presence is demanding no matter where we are, but right now I could sense everything about him, and I try to suppress the unwanted feelings that curl right under my skin. "Firefly? About done?" He calls out and I release my hand from the guard rail not realizing that as I looked at the lights that covered the shining city with the falling fire in the background that my subconscious was thinking about how nice it would be... how relieving it would be... to just fall. True freedom. I take a step back and wrap my hands together turning around to a fully clothed unchanged man and nod once. I could see the fear in his eyes that I would, he knows if he gave me the chance... I wasn't ready for this, but I had to survive. No matter what.

Obsessed
Here I was, 4 A.M in my shower, thinking about how good my cock would feel buried inside her pussy. How desperate I am to destroy her insides and breed her until sh- no-I couldn't handle it anymore. I imagined her legs wrapped around my waist as I fucked her senselessly. Our eyes would lock while I whispered sweet nothings. Then I'd flip her over, arching her back and digging her head into the mattress, suffocating her just a little, and then ramming into her without warning. I sound like a sadist but I can't help it. The things she makes my body do, I've never felt this with another woman. June is obsessed with Amirlya. Severely obsessed. So obsessed that he has control on her every move, eyes on her every step, and lurks in the shadows when she doesn't notice. Amirlya on the other hand just wants to be left alone. With years of tormenting, she is tired of constantly falling victim to June's strange possessiveness and frightening authority over her. However, that all changes when he strangely decides to reform himself, into a better man, for her sake. Will his attempt at improvement woo her over? Or make things worse?

Her Secret
I sighed heavily as I scanned the forest. I had heard something or someone to be specific, wandering about. I decided I would leave once I affirmed they weren't a danger. "What are you doing in my land, human?" A deep enchanting voice spoke I sighed once again "I'm not human, just smell like one" I spoke as I turned around to see the most stunning man I have ever seen "Mate" he spoke "Find another female, Lycan" I spat He only growled at me in response. Men. My brother was the same way. It's kinda funny how all, correction, most shifter men think alike. I would've thought he would be different, after all, he is Lycan. Something of myths. But then again, so are the supernatural. I turned away from him, not even looking at him. I didn't want to remember what he looked like so I didn't give him a second glance. I heard him move closer. I quickly grabbed the knife out of my holster and threw it at a tree next to him. He stops moving then. "Heed my warning. It's the only one you'll get" I spoke coldly "I will find you. Then you will have no escape from me" he spoke as he backed away I could understand. Lycans, like lion-shifters, were going extinct. Therefore mates were even more important to them. But, even if I understood I still didn't want to be someone's mate. After all, I was Destiny Requalhi, Creator and Destructor of All. ------------------------------ Destiny Requalhi, a girl with a rough past and set in stone future.
