"You're not who I expected you to be," he murmurs, his fingers tracing lightly along the curve of my cheek. His touch is hesitant, almost reverent, as if I might disappear. "I've waited so long for you... and now that you're here, I wonder if I will be enough."

His silver eyes hold a sadness I don't understand, something ancient and unspoken.

A strange warmth floods my chest, a whisper of a memory just out of reach. I want to pull away. I want to run.

But I don't.

Because something inside me knows-this moment has happened before.

And the last time, I chose him.

____

In a world where the Sun is revered as the divine protector and the Moon is feared as a vengeful force, Renee has spent her life struggling against a fate she does not understand. Cast out by her family for refusing to conform, she is forced to survive on her own. But when a mysterious man with piercing silver eyes offers her a chance at work and shelter, she unknowingly steps into a web of secrets older than time itself.

Sylas, a man with golden eyes and a presence that demands devotion, takes an interest in her. He offers her comfort, promises of a brighter future-yet something about him feels wrong. Meanwhile, the enigmatic Soren lurks in the shadows, watching, waiting. There's a familiarity to him, an unexplainable pull she cannot resist. And as flashes of lost memories begin to surface-memories of a love she cannot recall-Renee realizes that her destiny is far greater, and far more dangerous, than she ever imagined.

One of them is using her. The other has been waiting lifetimes for her to remember.

But fate is not kind, and the truth will change everything.

Entropy  by KelseyBrown986
6 parts Ongoing Mature
He walks forward, pressing the blade into his throat. His skin is taunt against the serrated edge, and blood beads around it until it drips down his neck in a crimson trail. My eyes widened, wanting it. He is looking at me with those dangerous, glinting green eyes, daring me. "Kill me, then. If you feel nothing, you can kill me. Then you can leave.The choice is up to you. It always has been," He whispers. His words leave me as cold as the blade at his throat. My heart is subjected to this stabbing pain, like I'd turned the knife on myself, and I would rather it be like that. "But if you don't," he whispers," you are mine and all mine. We will rule the dawn of a new age, we will complete our bond, and you will forget about her. Make your choice." I can hear my heart beat in my ears, and I swallow agaisnt the rush. These are my options. Kill him, or agree to be his. I make my own choice. I can not take my freedom away. I can not be the mate he wants, but I can not kill him. With a deep breath, I turn the knife on myself. Aurora, a girl with only one name and abandoned at birth in a war torn land, finds herself lost in a sea of witches, drowning in everything she can never have. Or so she thinks, the night a divine interference rips her from her home leads to a butterfly effect of deadly, chaotic spirals. Something dwells in the unknown shadows of Aurora's soul, something lurking just behind the screen of consciousness, something passed down through the generations as greater beings try to avoid the annihilation of our world. Is she just another part of the fall out, another victim to an unending tragedy between two cosmic beings? There's only one thing that can help her, and it stands before her in the form of a green eyed werewolf mercilessly killing the witches she's grown up loving. She thinks he can protect her, but what will she do when he needs protection...from her? #12 in destruction #11 in strife

"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. "I'm fond of you, too," he whispered in her ear. <><><><><><><><> Skylar lived her life in fear. Fear of exposure, fear of herself, and fear of her future.
