Reunited again.

Boris Downing is finally free from the clutches of Absalom and is taken to join the Mortal Guard alongside Tyler Finlay, Nicholas Flynn, Richard Seife, Pierce Tucker, and Leah Downing's coven of witches. They acclimate quite nicely, but the fear of Absalom's return never quite leaves anyone.

Then the consequences begin. Not only do Darkness Doors begin opening up in random places in Austin due to the witches being gone from the mortal realm, the Liar continues its murder spree in the residences of Mortal Guard members. For some unexplainable reason, Catastrophe Sect neglects to do anything . . .

Nick and Richard continue to explore their romantic relationship and grapple with their identities as Virtues while being put on perilous cases by The Mortal Guard in the hopes of unlocking their special weapons. Boris and Tyler find it difficult to stray from the dark path they had already been fated to go down. Not to mention, the prospect of either Nick or Boris eventually killing the other hangs over everyone's heads. An unexpected development occurs when their friend Adrian Laurentin's deepest secret comes to light and the entire group of animals will be tested because of it.

Beyond Prostasia, the malevolent fox, King, and his group of vampires, The Black Cross, work in the shadows, plotting something that will change the foundation of the world as everyone knows it. The leader of The Black Cross, Ivan, begins to uncover the murky depths of his devotion to King. Relentless, biting, and soaked in blood; the insanity only ramps up in the sequel to Static Reflections: The Terror Gaze! 

How far can one animal's limits be stretched?

Just My Luck (boyxboy) by kodycolors

It was supposed to be an easy job. Get the phone and run like hell. Make a few hundred bucks for food, a nice hot shower, and a warm bed to sleep in for a night or two if I'm feeling greedy. I was fast on my feet, could blend with any crowd, and knew how to pick a pocket without anyone seeing. Easy right? Now I'm strapped to a chair, blood running down my face and this man just growled at me. His eyes are starting to glow blue too. What did I just get myself into? How did looking into those blue eyes change my whole life? How much worse can my luck possibly get as everything in my life turns upside down faster than I could keep up? ****** NSFW chapters are censored. Get the full uncensored version on my Patreon page!

The Witch's Mates by AliciaAnn24

I am just about to turn around and head down the alley toward the street when I see two shadows step away from the wall a little farther down from where I am standing. I can't see any features, but I can guess from their statures that they are both men. I don't know what species they are though, but given that they just witnessed me kill a vampire I decide it's time to get the hell out of here. At least they aren't blocking my path to the street. Just as that thought crosses my mind, I hear the back door to the club open and close. I don't want to take my eyes off the men in front of me, but I have to see who just walked out. To assess the new danger. Before turning to look though, I pull out my remaining weapon also hidden in my boot. A silver dagger. It's only really good for killing werewolves, but it can do some damage to other supernaturals too. I give the figures in front of me one last look, they haven't moved at all, and then glance behind me. My breath stops for a moment, and it feels like my heart stops along with it. *** Willow is a witch who hunts down and kills other supernaturals. After the Great Massacre of the Wiccan Community, their population had been decimated. So while they try to rebuild their population and plan their revenge, they take out as many supernaturals as they can. But everything changes for Willow when she meets Keaton, Everett, Aizen, and Devlin. *** *This is a fantasy reverse-harem romance novel.

Static Reflections: Book 1 of The Mortal Guard Series by nileshollowthorn

[2021 WATTYS SHORTLIST] TWO FRIENDS, DIVIDED. ONE STORY. =^.^= It all begins with a murder. Astrid Delaney, the manager of indie rock band, Water on Fire, has been brutally stabbed to death backstage just before one of their concerts. The culprit is Water on Fire's keyboardist, Boris Downing. This is no mystery. Nicholas Flynn, lead singer of Water on Fire, wakes up in a strange place surrounded by animals wearing unfamiliar outfits with peculiar bands on their left arms. The animals tell the hyena what has become of Astrid and that Boris is possessed by a demon named Absalom. Unable to have his memory of Absalom erased and seeing an opportunity to figure out how to exorcize Boris, Nick joins the hidden organization known as the Mortal Guard which keeps the knowledge of the supernatural, known as the Other Side, from public knowledge. He is placed under the guidance of Richard Seife, a raccoon deemed mentally "damaged" by the organization. Boris doesn't want to be a killer. Even though the otter grew up rich and well-off, minus the neglectful father, he's never quite connected to the world at large. Even so, he had been making strides to improve himself thanks to the help of he and Nick's German shepherd friend, Tyler Finlay. Now, Absalom has entered his life and made it a living hell, forcing him to murder innocent animals or face the consequences of losing everybody he loves. Boris kidnaps Tyler, as he's one of these targets, but how could he kill the animal that had just recently been helping him improve as a person? Featuring a mental health twist, Static Reflections is an LGBT+ downward spiral of trauma and identity in an insane supernatural world where the real horrors might just be the most recognizable things in life. True evil awaits all involved. =^.^= Content and/or trigger warning: This story contains extremely dark themes, graphic violence, themes of suicide, and mention of sexual assault.

Lunar Eclipse by SallyMason1

A union which was meant to bring peace An encounter in the woods which might destroy it all A scorned mate hell-bent on destruction And two star-crossed lovers whose choices could make or break the balance of nature. In an unforgiving world where teeth and claws rule and life is measured by the survival of the fittest, Raelyn is forced into an arranged union to save her native werewolf pack from war. Struggling to adjust to the life of a submissive she-wolf, she rebels against her abusive mate and his dominant Alpha family, only to be coerced into an inferior role until she finds powers buried deep within her. Far away in another part of the country, Kendrick Raynes, the Northern Light King, is the Alpha at the top. An encounter in the woods turns his life upside down, making him question his loyalty to his pack and his ability as a leader. Following his heart could bring him happiness -- but it could also eradicate the werewolves from existence. Since the beginning of time, the Sentinels have been tasked with guarding the balance of nature. Marush, Sentinel of Metal, wants none of that. Born under the dark cloud of the malediction, he is considered the strongest and most powerful warlock alive, and his sole mission is to find his Na Miodóg, the sacred dagger that is the only weapon that can kill his kind. Nothing will stop him, even if that means he'll wipe the entire werewolf population off the planet, with Raelyn and the Northern Light pack being the first in line. In the end, it will come down to a simple choice -- and a final battle under the watchful eye of the Lunar Eclipse.

Emberholde Academy by ImmortalKissvv

True love. Mates. The very backbone of the werewolf species. But what happens when your Alpha mate rejects you? --------- Eden Cross is a Beta wolf in the Moorgrey Pack. With two different coloured eyes and a secret, she's always been a bit different but well respected and a good friend of most in the packlands. On her 20th birthday she is excited to find her mate as any she-wolf could be. The stories and lore of fated mates told by the ancestors make it all seem like such a fairytale. The love and bond you experience is like no other. But that's not the case; not for Eden. Rejected and shunned after a chaotic incident, she is sent off to Emberholde Academy, a place for out of control wolves and under the strict rule of Alpha Dante Ashvale of the Shadow Sun pack. He's ruthless and unforgiving, but turns out to be crucial to Eden's life and future, with a secret of his own. A man dedicated to his pack, with no care for himself. When these two souls collide in a raging blaze, will they rise from the ashes stronger, or stifle in never ending darkness? ______________________________ [Chapter updates will be weekly, unless posted otherwise.] [18+, some mature content/themes, sex, swearing.] [Sexual themed chapters will be labelled with a disclaimer, and have been written in a way that you can skip these scenes if you prefer.] Spotify Playlist for this novel --> https://open.spotify.com/playlist/6SBn7MPdncfpnrEdVIlIzS?si=e0etOkrpRuqitDF5HBnpzQ *** This work is completely created and written by me, and in no means can be copied, saved or re-posted to other sites, or used for personal use without my permission. *** Rankings -

Madeline Curtis, a runaway from small town in Washington, finds herself in the streets of Hollywood looking for a place to stay when she encounters a strange hooded man. In less than a second poor Madeline's entire life was flipped upside down and she is determined to find the monster that caused it all. ----------------------------- Maybe it was the way all of their hearts beat in synchronization or the bulging veins that popped out of their hands as they did their work. Somehow, some way, without the normal supervision and the taste of human blood I'd gotten just an hour ago, I broke my streak of leaving the humans to rest freely, and I killed them all. "Madeline." I announced to the crowd, at least they'd know the name to their killer when I pierced my teeth into their bodies, their bodies running cold due to the lack of blood. "Maddy?" A sadly familiar voice said from the front door. When I didn't respond he stepped closer and used his thumb to tilt my head back to look at him. I couldn't make out if it was disappointment or sadness when he looked at the remains of the human boy lying in front of me, no chance of life inside of him. "Oh, Madeline." he sighed. ----------------------------- !
