This is quite recent for me, but based on an older story that I had written nearly thirty years ago. I hope one day to revisit this one and extend it. There is a massive scope to what Damien Quicksilver could be and do.

❖2021 Watty Awards Shortlist❖ Kevin was just a normal 10 year old kid until he saw a woman vanish right before his eyes. This made Kevin just a little bit different. He paid more attention to people now. Little did he know that this little difference would kill him the next time he encountered another alien about to return home. It would tear him apart, cell by cell, until he was unmade. His mind being transported away. --- So distantly far away there is a race that advanced to the point where they built dyson spheres to house their civilizations. In their continual expansion, they seeded galaxies with pods and connection satellites. Over time they upgraded their dyson spheres into matryoshka brain Cores. Imagine a computer powered by a star. Citizens of Cores no longer age once they upload their minds into the virtual living system of the Core. While they didn't age, most still choose to cycle through life and death though at a different scale of time compared to our lives. Citizens can visit other planets and live there as if they were on a "vacation". Mercury is Earth's hub connected to the closest Core and Earth is a remote vacation spot for wealthy citizens. When the main character was 10 he witnessed a citizen returning to the Core. The story continues 10 odd years later when he again witnesses a similar situation unfolding and manages to touch the person returning to the Core. This causes him to be swept up in the transfer as well and for his mind to join as a "Guest" user of the Core. As a Guest he has limited powers, a starting balance of zero cr or Citizen credits, and no idea how he can get home. He is the first human to ever become a Guest of a Core. Where money itself is the highest form of their science.

After her pack was killed by Rogues, Laura becomes a part of the Blue Moon Pack when the Alpha takes her in. When her Guardian Bond to the Alpha's daughter forces her to move with Mira to the territory of her Mate, Laura finds its difficult to keep her secret. As a rare White Wolf, she is not only a danger to herself but to those around her, as legend claims her death will grant immortality. To top things off, she meets her Mate but is rejected by him when he believes she cannot shift. When her secret comes out he revokes his rejection, but will she still want to accept him as her Mate? Quick Peek: "My duty is to Mira and no one else. You made it clear that I would never become a part of your pack. I am not your mate and I am not their Luna. I will not help you rule a pack who has spent weeks mocking me and threatening to harm my Protected as a way to get a rise out of me. Do you expect me to believe their sudden desire for me to be their Luna? Am I supposed to trust their sudden respect? Your sudden devotion to me?" "Please. You're my Mate, their Luna," he pleaded. "Like you said, I'm sure you can find a more suitable Luna for your pack. After all, why accept me when neither you nor your people want me?" I said, throwing his words back at him.
