A Pendragon Gargoyles Prequel

For months Corrine Lawson has walked a fine line between reality and madness. The only thing keeping her sane is her sexy and mysterious next-door-neighbor, Ryker. Yet the closer she gets to uncovering the truth about him, the harder it becomes to resist the man who exposes her to a dangerous world steeped in myth and legend. Surrendering to him and the sizzling connection that burns between them means succumbing to the madness within, and that’s not a fight she’s willing to lose. 

Both man and wolf, Gargoyle Ryker McKinnon has spent nearly a century tormented by his past, hungering only for vengeance—until he finds Corrine, a spirited human and the key to his redemption. Determined to use Cori as a pawn in a deadly game of revenge, nothing prepares Ryker for the staggering emotion her touch unleashes or the brutal need to claim her as his own.

When Cori is caught in the middle of a bitter feud and a centuries-old greed for Excalibur, will Ryker’s secrets destroy the woman he loves or finally awaken the fierceness inside her?

Bonded By Destiny by Howtsaus

'Calm down Tamara, I can explain. ' My extra alert ears collected the sound waves, sending them to the brain for interpretation. I couldn't believe it! He was asking me to calm down after saying such words. 'My mind can only picture you between her legs right now, and you want me to calm down? ' The flames continued growing just as the invisible force wrenched me near him. His wide eyes met with mine as I leaned in closer to him, tiptoeing on my feet to reach just below his ear. 'The remedy for fire is fire.' My arms were convulsively grasped yet again by the inexplicable force. I failed miserably to counter the forced actions as my hands tore my blouse in an instant. 'No! ' His shout was a second late because the flames died out as my hands embedded into the cloth, pulling it apart in ferocious strength. *********- Orphaned and living as the only witch in a pack of werewolves, Tamara is hated and ridiculed despite her kindness.

A Lord and Lace (Regency au! Prince Arthur x oc) by kfacecookie

A wayward regency au one shot I wrote for fun, and because the concept wouldn't stop haunting my mind. ~ Trying to get back up after his ex-fiancé left him, Lord Arthur Pendragon relents to his friends and families idea of hosting a party in his family's estate. Although holding up hope for a new love that evening, he could not predict falling head over heel for a woman with haunted eyes, who secretly hides a crooked and wicked grin and a spark of intrigue unlike any he's glimpses before. After catching the sight of that side of her, and the way her families mistreatment severely dampens it, he finds himself sure of one thing. He's going to get her out their grasp, but doing so might be more tricky then first expected. Miss Harriet Frodesdotter is stuck in a hell of constantly being forced into a uncomfortable, lace covered, dress, into unbearably loud ballrooms, and dealing with condescending suitors that her controlling sister manages to steer towards her. The sudden approach by a Lord Pendragon does make her pause however, his sweet and concerned eyes appearing to be almost horrifyingly sincere as he offers to help her with her family issues. She doesn't trust him, he's not the first to claim to be her savour for purely selfish reasons, but something tells her that there's something more to him, and not in a bad way. ~ Content warning for ableism, family issues (including abuse, I don't perceive it as especially graphic, but it's there) and depictions of meltdowns.

(GXG) Whispering Willows: The Kasckacyveq Chronicles by diamondheartz0_0

{BOOK 2} ...Oh the sweet agony of that delicious yet light friction. It took all of his strength not to moan... But suddenly, he felt Rowan bite his bottom lip hard, it threatened to bleed. And shortly after Rowan was off him. He looked at the prince confused, "What the hell?" But Rowan just smiled and said, "I'm still mad at you but hey, that," he pointed to Garrick's bulge, "should be a good distraction for the rest of the night." He then sauntered his way off to the tent. For a moment, Garrick didn't respond. Then he nodded, his expression softening just a fraction. "You're cruel," he said. --- In the company of Rowan and a still freshly heartbroken Hyacinth, Garrick sets out to his home on the island of Goldovia. But things aren't as he left them. A darkness and seeped through the land and into the grounds leaving behind a skeleton of the once beautiful paradise. Follow their journey as they unlock new unexpected truths about his father while Hyacinth finds a new distraction from her past lover, Aria. I suppose it wouldn't really matter if you read book 1 to understand this book but it would make a lot more sense if you read book 1 first. So maybe check it.out. It would make me really happy 😁

To Be Devoured by StormeKeller

Quiet, red-haired, and fat, she's spent her life trying to stay invisible, hiding in her friends shadows. But college offers a fresh start-or so she thought. When she's paired for a project with Dimitri Winchester, her cruel childhood bully, Winter's carefully constructed walls begin to crumble. The irony? She's spent years nursing a secret crush on Dimitri's older brother, the one person who was kind to her back then. As secrets unravel and long-buried feelings resurface, Winter discovers there's more to Dimitri than just a bully she once despised. But just as she begins to question everything she thought she knew, an unexpected bite plunges her into a dangerous world she never knew existed. Literally. The line between enemies and lovers blurs in this gripping tale of secrets, hunger, betrayal, desire, and survival. Winter must decide: will she fight to escape Dimitri, or will she surrender... to be devoured?
