Fennrin is a shadowforger, a type of az-ari who have mastery over shadows. But all it's ever brought him is misery. People are afraid of the power that he himself barely understands, seeing his shadows as omens of bad luck and death. 

Forced to barely scrape by since his parents disowned him, Fennrin's life takes a turn when he is approached by Ainreth, a lightweaver and famous general, asking him to come with him to the royal court to be trained and help him stave off an assassin who's made an attempt on Ain's life, somehow able to counteract his powers.

Even though Fennrin is suspicious of Ainreth's flirting and his arrogant attitude, Fennrin decides to go with him because his life can't get much worse.

Thrust into a world of politics and power, Fennrin quickly learns just why shadowforgers are so infamous and how strong he could become, while, much to his chagrin, starting to fall for Ainreth. However, unwelcome feelings are only the start of his problems as the neighboring, tyrannical monarchy is preparing for war. And if Fennrin wants to survive, he will have to fight it.

For as long as he can remember, Caldor has been forced to live a life of crime. With a group of his fellow thieves, they've stolen from practically all of the wealthier citizens of Redreach over the years. They have a system of how to go about their business, and it works. Until one day when it doesn't. Captured by guards and dragged off into the dungeons, Cal expects to be executed. What other fate could await a lifelong thief? But instead he is given an offer: his life will be spared if he steals a specific book. The catch? The owner of said book is a dragon. Caldor ends up accepting, having little choice, but he doesn't believe he will succeed. What Cal assumes will be his death turns out very differently, however, when he actually meets the dragon-a surprisingly human-looking and handsome creature called Idriseth-and very quickly becomes enamored with him. Cal may have come to steal the dragon's book, but now he wants to steal his heart. But will the always guarded Idriseth let him? Can a dragon even love a human? --------------------------- [word count: ≈ 40 000 words] ★ Featured on @Romance ★ • Book 1 - The Thief's Dragon • Book 2 - The Thief's Mate • Book 3 - The Thief's Choice • Book 4 - The Thief's Bargain • Book 5 - The Thief's Half-Dragon • Book 6 - The Thief's Lovers
From The Ashes by EllisBeddoe
23 parts Ongoing Mature
"This is the truth, guarded by the ignorant and blind. This is the truth of our world and our history. The gods have abandoned us. And it is our fault." Two towns set alight, and unrest continues to stir the air, even after the ashes have settled. These events are not coincidental, nor will they be the last tragedy to befall the dark, bloody and war-stricken world of Tayrul. All know it, and all suspect, rightly, that these events are only the opening of a gate, allowing something much bigger and far more sinister to befall the already ailing world. Arvayn Bryvaris, a mysterious half-elven thief/assassin, decides to cut ties with a deadly assassin's guild in an attempt to free himself of the vile shadow of the abusive and manipulative Assassin King, and strives to clear his name of the blood of his past. He strikes a deal to steal a strange talisman for a Curseborn named Locke in exchange for his freedom. Only for this decision to - instead of end his path of struggles and strife as he intended - lead him down another. One to something far more deadly than he could have ever even imagined... Meanwhile, Fenris Alivar, a monster hunter known as a Duskguide from the city of Loridge, is pulled into investigating the town burnings, one of which resulted in the death of his mentor. Found evidence points to the Heirs Of The Phoenix, a sinister cult that plagues his past, as well as a vampiric child called Cherlen. Fenris is tasked with the interrogation of the vampire, and the apprehension of the cult. All at the tremendous price of facing his past demons in an all or nothing effort to avenge the brutal deaths of his loved ones, at the hands of his own blood.

Larry Sandoval was at his wit's end, miserable, unhappy, feeling like an animal trapped, living in a gilded cage, desperate to leave his troubled marriage when one night, quite by chance, after he finally gets the courage to leave his husband, he meets the man of his dreams in Laurent Bourgeois. Laurent is everything Larry's husband is not, and on the night they meet, he and Laurent connect in a way neither saw coming, shaking them both to their core. Initially, Laurent saw Larry and was captivated by him. He wanted him. But Larry was only supposed to be a one-night "encounter", just a means to scratch a sexual itch. Larry too was captivated the second he saw Laurent. But after their one-night encounter reluctantly ends, they say their goodbyes. Neither expected to see the other again. But fate had other plans, and with it a reunion just days later when they come face to face again, and in a most shocking way. To Laurent's surprise, Larry becomes an unexpected piece of a puzzle in his covert mission to uncover a corrupt UN Diplomat leading a clandestine double life. But for Larry, seeing Laurent again is a welcome answer to a prayer, his ticket to a life he'd only dreamed about. But will it be? Will Larry and Laurent get what they're both seeking? Will theirs be a happy...or tragic ending? Read ahead to find out, and follow their journey from start to finish. ❤️❤️ DISCLAIMER: Please be advised that, though tastefully done, this love story contains graphically depicted sex scenes and some profanity and therefore may not be suitable for readers under eighteen years of age, or those with an otherwise sensitive religious or spiritual nature who may be opposed to some aspects of this story.
