The world has changed. Humans now know that supernatural creatures exist, and honestly it went better than anyone could have hoped. Until things that haven't walked the earth in centuries started waking up. 

Delany just wants to carve out a little life for herself under the radar. She works her jobs, she collects her pay, and she goes home. Everything seems to be going according to plan until something evil passes through a portal from Faerie to Earth.  Maverick follows the creature through, tasked with hunting it down and returning it to the bonds it escaped in Faerie. 

No one knows Delany's heritage, but when Maverick crosses paths with her in his pursuit of the loosed evil he has some good guesses. Now she has a choice to make, she can let the evil kill Maverick and have one less worry, but with that she risks it destroying Earth in the process. Or she can help him return the creature to Faerie and find a way to keep the frustratingly persuasive Male at arms length. Delany knows what will happen if Maverick learns the truth, but something about him makes her want to risk it.

**Coming to KU in January 2026** Sometimes fate brings you exactly what you need before you even realize it. *** Brigid Kelly has lost everything and no amount of spells or wishes stopped it. After her Gran fell ill and passed away, Brigid wasn't able to keep her grandmother's metaphysical shop going. With everything crashing down around her, Brigid buys a one-way ticket to the land of her ancestors, hoping to find solace in the old cabin where her Gran grew up. Ireland is everything she was always told it was and then some. As she sorts out the slowly declining house in the woods, she's thrust into the path of handsome Torin Boyle by circumstance. The walls she's built up around her heart are slowly chipped away as Torin reveals pieces of himself as well, opening not only his home but his heart too. Torin Boyle has spent the last thirty-odd years living in the North of Ireland, running through the rolling hills with his friends. As a pack of wolf Shifters in a country that has no natural wolves, Torin has learned to keep a tap on his inner emotions to protect those he loves. But his homeland is dying; small patches of forest turning brown and dry. When a witch appears on his family's land out of nowhere, he's concerned that the witch is to cause for what's been happening to the land. He never expected to feel pulled into her orbit so completely. Brigid's idyllic life comes to a halt when Torin's father falls ill, closely followed by other members of the Shifter's family. The land around them - the very land where Brigid's ancestors lived - is dying. If Brigid and Torin can't figure out how to fix it, she might not be the only one losing those she loves. **Trigger Warnings - mentions of hospitals and death/cancer; loosing loved ones**
The Order by HeatherAustin77
45 parts Ongoing Mature
For thousands of years The Order has been protecting creation from Evil, the paranormal, and sometimes themselves without the world knowing. Each member of the ancient society has been sworn to put humanity above all else, even if not by choice. The Fallen are some that don't have that choice. Many are serving penance after being cast out during the battle in Heaven or for other transgressions. Callen and Fin are two of The Fallen, who are serving their time, counting down the days until they are able to go home. Each save brings them closer to their rightful power and closer to getting out. But a higher power has other plans for the disgraced Angels. Plans that keep them Earth-bound for longer than any of them anticipated. Plans that include Harper McCarthy, who has no idea what truly exists in the world. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- All Harper McCarthy wants out of life is to raise her six year old son, Cameron the best she can. But when Callan and Fin blow into town, they throw her into the chaotic world of angels, demons, ghosts and creatures that only belong in nightmares. A world that in her mind, shouldn't exist. A world she should have always been a part of. With lies and betrayals coming to light, Harper comes to find that she is one of three keys in a prophecy that should have taken place almost a decade ago, one that was thrown off course by someone she trusted the most. While Harper tries to come to terms who...or what she is, Callen must decide whether to embrace his new role or hold onto his resentment for humanity, who he was sworn to protect. Not only does their world hang in the balance, but all realms may crash and burn. *Contains acts of violence, foul language, sexual situations, Humor, tense situations and a few twists and turns.* Read at your own risk.

When a young warrior-turned-spy finds a rare magic wielder her people thought extinct, she must make a decision: stay loyal to those she loves, or return to her people as a hero. Season 2 of The Fated Series *** Secrets have been Brynn Alburn's companions since the moment her people left her for dead on the shores of the Western Shifter Territory. Having grown up among those once considered enemies, she's spent more time hiding from a dark past than living a peaceful life. But as the years pass, she's finally found herself settling into this new life with the shifters. Until she hears the whispers. Whispers of a separate kind of rare magic wielder-one her people thought extinct and have sought to return to their land. When the leader of the Western Shifter Territory asks her to help spy on the wielders and assist the neighboring Southern Shifter Territory, Brynn jumps at the chance to visit the territory directly connected to the rumors. Her visit leads her directly to Ronan, one of the deadliest shifters in all of Eravella, and a man she's inexplicably drawn to. Now, Brynn's been enlisted to help the Southern Shifter Territory rescue one of their own. The recovery effort puts her closer to Ronan, and gives her the chance to locate the treasure her people searched for. Except Ronan has a close eye on her, and he's refusing to let her keep her past buried deep where it belongs. Now she must fight her developing feelings, locate the wielder, and make the ultimate decision: protect the wielder and keep her secrets, or betray those she's come to love.
