In a post-apocalyptic world ravaged by the aftermath of a devastating global conflict, survival is a daily struggle. Earth, now a desolate wasteland plagued by incessant bombings, scarce resources, and the specter of imminent mortality, presents a grim reality.
Amidst this chaos, Jack, a battle-weary veteran haunted by the memories of a tragic incident that cost him his arm, returns to his shattered homeland. The scars etched on his body are a constant reminder of the horrors he endured. Determined to bring justice to a lawless society, Jack embarks on a relentless quest to uncover the sinister truth behind a web of crimes that plague their nation.
As he joins forces with a band of tenacious investigators, they unravel a labyrinthine conspiracy that reaches the darkest corners of their dystopian world. Their pursuit leads them to the enigmatic "Temple of Dawn," an elusive organization suspected of orchestrating the nefarious activities that threaten their fragile existence.

Hear Me: An Omega's Tale
After spending over half of my life trapped in a place that can only be described as hell, I managed to escape, fleeing into the forest with the moon's light as my only guide. That is until they find me. My mates, my saviours, my monsters. They care for me, show me that all I had been taught about their kind had been nothing but lies, nurture me back to health, worship my body, and place my broken pieces back together one shard at a time. Alec, Ivan, and Xander already have an omega of their own, James, my sweet James who accepts and wants me just as much as his domineering alphas do. But as the secrets of my past threaten to destroy the peace we've built, I'm left with a choice too hard to face. Do I go before the darkness chasing me consumes the ones I've come to love? Or do I let them protect me, as they have always promised they would? (FYI, this is an OMEGAVERSE story, not a werewolf one.) TW: RH, violence, scenes of a sexual nature, abuse, grooming, confinement, BDSM, death, Panic attacks, CNC, knotting, death, talks of rape, dissociation, age gap, torture, body betrayal.
TIME TESTAMENT
William Testament is a mild mannered insurance man until his life becomes a series of unfortunate events, beginning with a horrific car accident. A visit to a meditation retreat changes his whole mindset and a mysterious and beautiful nightclub owner who moonlights as a sorceress seems to understand his mind better than he does. The city they live in is a dynamic place in the near future, but built up from the past, layers of millenia holding up its foundations, and dark energies working deep beneath its basements. The histories lurking there aren't the ones we read about in history books and some of them are infected with the future. The underworld is full of high-tech gangsters, artificial super-intelligences, and witchcraft wielding criminals spreading rumors and illusions. Rumors of a time-machine underground where the past and future collide. William is determined to bring order to this dark chaos growing beneath the city. With the help of Samantha, a young citizen journalist, and a mysterious spiritual teacher somehow linked with his own personal past, he hopes to try and control whatever this unseen thing is before it is too late.Complete
