"Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it."

October 2021, early snows of a premature winter clad the streets in white. The jackal walks the street, eyes filled with an ice that comes from within. A soul in decay, living in a decrepit world. A world in black and white for him, regardless of the horrors, yuuman or not, that lurked in the dark streets. A soul bleached of its past, denied of a future. That's all there was.

But forgetting the past does not mean leaving it behind. A lesson Seth has to learn at a hefty cost.

While stains of crimson red drips down into this monochromatic world of his, Seth has to press on to find the cause of the abductions and murders of witches in the area, before the cracks that keep at bay the darkness of ages past grow too wide to be ignored.
And for that, many compromise are to be made.

**WARNING** ~contains explicit content that may not be acceptable to all viewers. discretion advised~ "No no no no..." My words trailed "NO!!" I screamed, pulling harshly at all my restraints, attempting to get free, hearing the harsh clank of metal on metal with every movement. Colder than the table beneath me, chills ran through my body. This couldn't be happening, please. A sadistic laugh rang through the room and my head fell in defeat as my eyes squinted closed, not wanting to see his face. "Yes, actually." I felt his disgusting, filthy hands trail down my arms. I could feel him leaning forwards, moving himself closer to me. I couldn't bring myself to open my eyes, so I just lay there, waiting for what I knew was to come. "You're mine now, mut." His voice made my body tense more than it already had. The way he sounded so angry. So possessive. I dared myself to speak, "W-what ar-are you gonna d-do to me?" My voice shook and wavered so much in my fear that it was numb to my ears. Alpha Dave let out a low, calloused chuckle that sent chills throughout my body. He said, in a deadly low voice, "I'm going to remind you who you belong to." * DISCLAIMER- In this story world, each person gets five potential mates! * Blake Daniels' story has been one tragedy after another, Complications littering his route, tripping him on his journey through life. At this point, he's entirely disgusted by his Complacency. For as long as he can remember, he has been at the whim of everyone's desires, neglecting his own.

25 parts Ongoing Mature
Jack is a man consumed by grief after the tragic loss of his boyfriend, Kyle, in a car accident. Desperate and broken, Jack makes a perilous deal with Alex, a flirtatious and strangely comforting demon, selling his soul in exchange for Kyle's resurrection. The two lovers are reunited, but Jack knows their time is borrowed and that Alex will come to claim him soon. When Jack's time runs out, he expects eternal damnation, but Alex has something far more sinister - or perhaps alluring - in mind. Jack is thrust into a dark and twisted world where he is no longer his own, now bound to Alex as his "pet." As Jack navigates this bizarre new existence, he battles between resisting Alex's seductive, domineering charms and accepting his fate. Will Jack remain defiant in his new life, or will he find that the companionship of a demon isn't the hell he imagined? The boundaries between torment and desire blur in this dark romance, where love, loyalty, and possession become dangerously intertwined. **THIS IS A DARK ROMANCE. PLEASE READ WITH CAUTION.

Dating in the modern world is hard enough when you aren't a vampire with exactly zero kinks looking for a stable, wholesome relationship with a hot guy. Unfortunately for Seth, that's the exact position he finds himself in. Every Friday night he seems to end up in another stranger's bed, and every Saturday morning he swears he'll never drink again. What's a guy gotta do to find true love in a bar? Updates every Wednesday at 5PM CST (hopefully). Fair warning, this story will go to some pretty dark places and deals with substance abuse, non-consensual advances, and suicidal ideation. It is a romance, so there will be a happy, healthy relationship at the end, but please take care of yourself if you're not in a place where you can safely read about those topics. This story takes place in the same universe as Hot or Cold. https://www.wattpad.com/story/284184378-hot-or-cold
