Ashen Officer October Hauntings has always excelled at keeping romance out of her work life. At least, until she sees the brooding red irises of her new partner. Jasper Drolden is tall, dark, and used to be human. With each passing moment together, teasing out each other's secrets, October's heart starts to consider rewriting her policy on coworker fraternization...
It's been over two centuries since the human race diverged, and after about a hundred and fifty years, humans and ashen have figured out how to get along. Sort of.
In Wrathfell City, the eastern 'human side' and the western 'ashen side' are separated by a wall that is rarely crossed. That is, until fifteen years ago, when a mysterious disease began randomly transforming the already-carnivorous ashen into monsters that crave human flesh above all else.
Now, a joint police task force has united the two sides against a common enemy, and its newest recruits are eager to prove themselves. Little did they know, the passion they'd find would go beyond just their dream job.
If you're looking for an adorably pure romance in a tumultuous future, Ashen is the romance novella for you!

The Coldest Heart
Once, she was an open book. Now, Alia is a fortress of ice, built brick by brick with every betrayal she's endured. After being used and broken, she escapes to Seoul, reinventing herself as the "perfect girl"-a calculated, cold-hearted force who wants nothing to do with love. But her past is a shadow that follows, and her carefully constructed walls start to crack when she meets him. He is a man of secrets, a creature of primal instinct living in a world of humans. He came to this land for a reason shrouded in ancient pacts and old bloodlines, and he is as detached from human emotion as she is. Yet, the moment their eyes meet, a forbidden spark ignites. He is drawn to her impenetrable heart; she is terrified by the unknown emotions he awakens. As her past enemies resurface and his own world threatens to collide with hers, Alia must confront the ultimate question: Can a cold heart learn to love a cold-blooded one? Or will their fragile connection shatter, leaving her lost in the darkness forever?
Bed Sheets
(Bxb) Eric Valence thought finding a job as an editor for a well-known author named Draven H. Malcolm was the beginning of his writing career. He had no idea that it would also be the beginning of his love story. *** "You're so clueless, it bothers me." He frowned, "What does that mean-" "You never wondered why I gave you all the best things on my floor - the closest desk, drinks from my office, my newest project. I even went to your house and picked you up to make sure you weren't late." "My portfoli-" "There are twenty three others with the same experience as yours, that was an excuse," he admitted, peering into Eric's eyes and daring him to look away. Eric didn't. Draven sighed, "The reason I got mad that day..." he paused for a moment, hesitating again but deciding to let it all out, "the reason I got mad is because I heard you kissed Jason, which I wasn't too pleased about but then seeing you and Justin together..." He never finished his sentence, and Eric raised an eyebrow, "What about Justin and I?" "I feel like you're doing this on purpose," Draven chuckled, examining Eric's confused face. "I'm not sure what you're talking about-" "I like you," Draven said clearly with his entire diaphragm, expression it as loud as he could for Eric to understand. Eric felt his throat squeeze itself shut, no oxygen coming in or out. "I like you, a lot more than I thought, Eric," he breathed. Eric was unable to believe it, shook his head and looked away for moment, before meeting his gaze again. "Why me?" he asked quietly. Draven shrugged his shoulders, eyeing Eric with adoration and admiration, "I'm not sure either, but I want you to be mine." Jan 24. 2018 - 1kComplete

My Heart, Your Soul
Harry had been a lot of things in his life, but happy hadn't been one of them for a very long time. He and Jasper loved each other. The wolves trusted Harry to be the middle man between themselves and the Coven. Bree was learning to be her own person with Rosalie and Emmett's support. Edward and Bella were about to get married (too absorbed in each other to annoy Harry). Carlisle and Esme were thrilled to see their family as close as it had ever been (despite Harry avoiding them often), while Alice bathed in the happiness of her family. Everything seemed so peaceful. Mortuus was still a thorn in his side, but he was growing annoyingly fond of that thorn. What Harry hadn't been expecting was a series of unpredictable events that would lead to him actually standing up for and defending Bella Swan. Oh, and having to tear down another stupid and arbitrary government. But when you're Harry Potter, what else could you really expect? Sequel to My Soul, Your Heart. The shits and giggles continue I guess.
