The finality of death scares most, human or otherwise.
This is where our similarities end.
Humans spend their lives in fear of that end, trying to find ways to stall the inevitable. We are free of that madness, living for the present. Humans fight and kill for no reason save fear, anger, and greed. We fight for the safety of kin and kind and the rights that are deserved by all sentient beings. Many humans live their lives with no true purpose. We live to protect one another and protect that which we love and cherish. Humans fear us because we do not look like carbon copies of themselves. We laugh and revel in who we are. Humans show off fake tanned skin, muscles gained through drugs, and surgically altered bodies. We show off the fur, claws, feathers, scales, fangs, paws, and fins we were born with.
We might not be human, but we are proud of who we are.
We are the Changelings, and we are on the brink of a war that could end everything.

L.O.V.E.
100 years ago, amidst WW3's nuclear bombing, a deadly virus was released in the atmosphere and nearly wiping out the humanity. It lives inside the human brain thriving on the empathy receptors, leading to irrational behaviour and ultimately brain death. To slow the damage, scientists created L.O.V.E, short for Living Off Vital Emotions, a nanovaccine that numbs the virus and switches off all strong emotions. As a last resort and with a dying planet, the Supreme Government created the City, a place to contain the infected survivors suitable for the experiment. Those in the first stages of illness became ideal candidates to receive the neuroinhibitor. Having their feelings restrained and their memory altered, those who come of age are designated a life partner through a Selection process, thus preserving the humankind. A few decades after the trial had started, scientists had a major breakthrough. The nanites, which are highly chemically reactive organisms, are changing their bio-engineered purpose when dopamine levels are high. With a new generation of nanoids, stronger and smarter to fight the battle, the virus doesn't have a chance. Many attempts were made to create a man-made version of synthetic dopamine and each time the outcome was a disaster. Their goal is to create new generations, immune to the virus. These are called Purebloods, the offsprings of those who find pure love, the only cure to save them from a violent death. Running out of time, the Experiment entered in its final stages. To minimize the threats, the Colonies have sent their best soldiers to oversee the trial and protect its key subjects. If only things were going according to plan, or better...stay hidden. With Iron Guard, the resistance outside the walls, hunting the Purebloods too, will the trial save human race before it's too late? #3 in #dystopianfuture (27.06.2020)Complete
Mentally Able
I am writing to you from the future, and I warn you, all the events in this story are true. Look around you. The people that you are sitting next to might not even be who you think they are. Supernaturals aren't a hoax. They blend in with others, act as though they are normal, but don't be fooled, because they aren't. If you don't want to be involved with this mess of a war, then I suggest you not read what I am writing. But if you do, suit yourself. Don't say I didn't warn you. They are out there. They are waiting. I am one of them. I am a supernatural. I am real. And I am part of the future of your world.Complete
THE WOLVES OF HOOD MOUNTAIN Book 1 : HUNTER - PART 2: When the wolf is away
When the Cat's Away, the Mice Will Play. Except in my case, the "cat" is a wolf... and the "mouse" is me. Bianca Ashford, just your average human. But as for playing? Yeah, not happening. I'm not in the mood for fun. My return to California is a total disaster. It's like my karma tanked the second I crossed paths with those damn werewolves-one catastrophe after another, no break in sight. The people I love keep walking out of my life, and my world turns into a twisted grab bag of surprises. Spoiler alert: they all suck. Betrayals, shocking truths, attempted murder-take your pick. But the real kicker? My "forced vacation" in Oregon left me with way more than just trauma. And meanwhile, back in the neighboring state, an entire pack is probably hunting me down. Because while I'm doing everything I can to put this nightmare behind me, they sure as hell aren't forgetting me-or the bond that ties us together. For Hunter, their bossy Alpha, I'm not just some random human. I mean a whole lot more. And he has no intention of letting me vanish. With his blood brothers at his side, he's ready to do whatever it takes to track me down and, more importantly, protect what's his. Their instincts are sharper than ever, but their patience is running out fast. The wolves are closing in, my secrets are piling up, and I'm fresh out of escape routes. When my situation spirals out of control, I'm faced with an impossible choice. Can I make it out of this, or will the endless curveballs finally take me down? And more importantly... how long can I keep running? One thing's for sure: this game is far from over.Complete
Brothers Severance
We were one of a kind, both as an item and as individuals... We were highly symmetrical, yet still retained difference... But being similar does not mean you are the same. We WERE similar. We used to be... As people grow up, their true colors begin revealing. Some keep the morals they learned from early life, and others make their own. Sometimes it does not even have to do with what you are taught or what you have experienced. Human beings are born into a destiny, born with the pages of their lives written. Some are to be heroes and others are to be villains. Some people think that a person can change, but people do not change. It is only their true self that gets brought out with experiences and years of living. People are who they are and always will be that way. Hell, /I/ have not changed, my brother never changed. YOU will not change. I wish I had known before that I couldn't change him, maybe then things would have ended differently. But it is all over now and we have both served the price. He chose to fall from the top, and I chose to be crushed beneath it...Complete
Omega and the beast
You know when people say how it's like love at first sight when seeing their love for the first time? You look him in the eyes and know he's the man of your dreams. Bullshit! There's nothing that would ever change my mind about the so-called love of my life! Sure, the first time I saw him he was annoyingly handsome with his proud demeanour & defined cheekbones. That penetrating look of his made my knees weak. With shiny black shoes and a Dracula coat with a hairstyle as shiny as his Santorini black jaguar. But the first thing I thought when I saw Reed Ramon Hook the third was, what a twat! A proud rich dipshit who thinks he can own everything. No one could ever say no to this noble twat! You may wonder why I roast the love of my life. But is there anyone who has the permission to do so it must be his own omega, right? Yes, I forgot to mention how this perfect dipshit to a hunkalicious twat is the alpha of the Hookhill pack. To be honest, I had no idea what that meant. Nor did I know how a man can bend down and suddenly stand on four paws, growing a tail! It came as news to me! But the biggest shock was how it turned out that I also can warp into a beast with a furry tail above my ass! From being an unsuccessful yet optimistic guy without an income but with a sense of sarcasm, to then kind of belong to town's richest man, becoming the subject of an Alpha battle. I understand if you're confused. So was I! But let me rewind the tape and take everything from the beginning. Lean back and embrace your sassiness! Because sassiness rules and is needed when dealing with a twat! Heads up! This book contains mature themes like smut, mpreg, violence & bad language. It addresses important topics like rights & gender. I want to highlight these themes but don't intend to devalue anyone stereotypically. It's a fictional story intended to entertain but with important topics. Trigger warning for abusive-like violence and oppression, mainly towards the end.Complete
Dragon's Lover {KiriBaku}
The world's war against dragons has been going on for generations, but no one knows why they fought. After years of fighting a new species emerged, shapeshifters. They were able to shift between a dragon and human form, making them impossible to find. Everyone referred to them as halflings, half dragon and half human. They were said to have wondrous abilities ranging from an armor like pelt to healing powers. These abilities made them prized creatures and wanted across all lands. Those that were discovered usually ended up as pets or fighters in arena's. After five years of their existence they all went into hiding, fearing what the humans did to those that had been captured. They were taught at a young age to never show what they could do to a human, as it would lead to being caught and possibly killed. There were small sanctuaries in each town, though they appeared to be normal hotels or orphanages. And this is when our story takes place.... Warnings: - Smut - Blood & Gore - Character death - Fluff *I don't own any of these characters and all credit goes to the creator*Complete

The humans have decided to repent for their past by giving the two Shifters a chance, something that hasn't happened in all of history. And what better way to show their ability to change what they've become known for than to send them to one of the Gordon boys who's next in line for Human Chair in the counsel? Will the Shifters show that not all of their kind lie in a blood of betrayal or will they provide evidence that that's the only thing they know? (Second installment of the Gordon series. Cayne Gordon's story.) Cover designer: maejesticComplete
