Gabriel McClair had this metaphorical idea about how his life was going to go after high school, he was going to go to community college, graduate, date and marry his best friend from high school (if he ever has the guts to ask her out) , find a job within his major and work that job until he retires.
That is, until he receives an acceptance letter to one of the most prestigious HBCUs in all of the US.
The thing is, he never submitted an application.
What is it about this school that wanted to have him as their student?
Gabriel gets settled into his new environment and is unaware of the phenomenal world that everyone is anxiously awaiting to take his first step.
Long live the king.

"In a word I was too cowardly to do what I knew to be right, as I had been too cowardly to avoid doing what I knew to be wrong" Charles Dickens, Great Expectations. I'm a textbook pessimist and I like it just the way it is. Eynal is a highborn boy who has whatever he could need to be happy but his outlook on life plagues him at every turn, obsessed by the notion that existence is entirely pointless living in his own world void of anything remotely positive he turns a blind eye to anything that is expected of him, but forces beyond him thrust an entirely new situation upon him that he fails to navigate with his usual indifference will he adapt and change as expected? or will he find a way to cast it aside as he always has. This story is based around medieval fantasy with some inspiration from the classics (Lotr, GOT) it will navigate the personal lives of two characters who are polar opposites and an increasingly fragile political situation in the world they live in *this is my first time ever writing something so if i suck please dont bully me XD*Complete
You, Again
Devin Maloney had exactly three objectives in mind for her summer: Make more money, find a rich boyfriend and move out of her parent's house (preferably directly into future rich boyfriend's abode). All of this would help convince Devin that she in fact was not such a fuck up after all. So what if she was twenty-six and hadn't made something of herself? It wasn't just her multiple jobs and her empty bank account anymore. It was the sheer number of weddings she had witnessed on Instagram that was making her physically ill at the moment. Each time she opened up her phone she held it slightly away from her. She couldn't bear to look at the screen for longer than a few moments as she rapidly swiped through the most current wedding searching for people she knew. Hoping that she wouldn't see him. Him being Christian Parker, the situation-ship that seemed to never amount to anything. Christian ebbed and flowed through Devin's life that most of her major milestones were synonymous with him in one way or another.Complete
Nobody But You
To Adriana, her last year in college couldn't get any better - she was in the top of her class, her school radio show was ranked the college's most listened student-ran show, and she was already getting offers for jobs. Her life was stress-free, especially since she had one thing NOT to worry about - a boyfriend. Unlike most girls, Adriana never expressed feelings for wanting a boyfriend. She actually never planned to date. And after a few bad experiences, she knew why. To her, guys were just immature and never knew what they wanted until the one they felt they needed was already gone, and she didn't have time for the drama. But, after one great moment with Samuel Davis, University of Southern California's hottest male student, and their star basketball player, she thinks she may have a change of heart. What will happen after these two have a few interactions? Will Adri give LOVE a chance, or will she remain the same? Copyright © 2016 by Kayla AngelComplete

Dominating an Alley Cat (boyxboy) ✓
[A/N] This is a werecat story. Bxb. Gabriel is probably not the sharpest knife in the kitchen but he knows how to make some money in a tough situation. Crime. It's not really a career so much as a lifestyle, his. It had been a long time since he'd seen anyone in any other way then how much money they carried with them or what sort of lash-backs there might be if he robbed them. One night upon walking home from his brothers flat in Halbern he saw a dark figure wander into the alleyway that happened to be a short cut to his place. The only thing he saw was the glint in the dark. He knew he was tall. He knew even looking from afar the man seemed scary, but he still went for it. Why? Because either way, every man had a neck. Oh no, Gabriel, look what you've done. You've awoken the demon of the underworld, Kerberos. Boy you messed with the wrong man.Complete
