Efnisien is a victim who has done terrible things, and had terrible things done to him, trying to get his life back on track after spending time in a juvenile facility. Arden is a co-owner of a bookstore, who meets Efnisien one day and goes from thinking he's a homeless addict, to realising there's a lot more to this guy than meets the eye, and eventually a tentative friendship becomes something more.

Efnisien explores his new life, abandoned by people he loves, negotiating therapy, the difficulties of making friends, and falling in love when you're asexual and plagued with intrusive thoughts and the belief that you're the most evil person to have ever existed. 

"Imagine me deciding to feel bad about everything I've ever done, and then imagine what kind of life I'll have. Because I'm not brave enough to live in some fucked up eighteen-hundreds-style purgatory. I'd rather die. There's no one who wants me, and there's no one who will. Which is exactly what someone like me deserves, isn't it?" A story about a broken boy, who is learning how not to break everything else around him.

Quick tropes/themes: Trauma recovery / Ace rep / Kink awakening / Found family / HEA (Happily ever after)

Content warnings: BDSM, graphic violence, PTSD, child abuse, graphic intrusive thoughts, historical animal cruelty and sexual molestation, revictimisation, disturbing themes.

Note: A spinoff to my other story, Spoils of the Spoiled, but you do not need to have read that to read this, and the stories can be read out of order.

Obsidian Heat by memoryofstars

In a dystopian alternate Earth in which omegas face discrimination and oppression, omega Jonah Merrick is hiding in plain sight as a private investigator. He's also demisexual taking heat suppressants to hide from the ten Houses and their oppressive regime. Until a murder of one of his clients brings him into contact with the strangest alpha he's ever met, a detective named Isme Gallagher with a shadow past. The two forge an instant connection in a complicated story of consent, abuse and the darkness we try to hide from ourselves. This is a very rough draft that I am posting as I go. I will try to catch any proofreading issues and continuity errors, but I can't promise anything exciting. This is also a very dark paranormal romance with a fox shifter omega and a non-shifter alpha. I'd describe it as spicy but with lots of emotional angst. It's got hurt/comfort galore and an age gap (28 and 41). It features lots of knotting, scenting, mpreg, explicit scenes of cutting and self-harm, suicidal ideation, sexual abuse (in the past, not between the two MMCs), dubcon and issues of consent. Mental health rep: PTSD (from sexual and war trauma), depression, OCD, self-harm, anxiety. Read at your own discretion. Cover by Rocking Book Covers.

"Its been one year and eight months since, and now all of a sudden you bring her up, why now? Out of all days?" I ask Jake sincerely. "I can see the act your putting up in front of everyone. The recklessness and all. You can get away with all of that with everyone else, but you can't fool me Bil," Jake tells me concerningly. "Why does it matter? I moved on, I have Drew. I'm not stuck on her anymore. Clearly - I've proven that by now," I say to Jake. "Do you mean that sincerely?" Jake asks me. I huff before looking back at Jake. "Yes. I do," I say to him truthfully. "Alright well. Finneas decided that it was best that I'd break the news to you," Jake says before sitting up in his seat. I look at him with my eyebrows furrowed, and suddenly a deep trench of anxiety forms in the pit of my stomach. "What is it?" I ask him. He hesitates before speaking. "Lilith is coming back to LA to work on the stage crew," Jake says. My eyes slightly widen. Fuck. ~~~ A year has gone by and now Lilith is back. Although a reunion is coming up, a year can change a person drastically, and as they say, change is inevitable. Will Lilith be able to reconnect with Billie? Or is it seemingly hopeless? Will Lilith finally remember Billie? Or did change form Lilith into a completely different person? ~~~ (This is the Second Book to the first book called 'Sweet Belladonna'. I highly recommend you go back to read the first one before continuing on reading this one, or else you'll be majorly confused.) ~~~ AU (Alternate Universe); Though some characters are real, this is fiction. Keep that in mind. Will contain explicit language, depression, anxiety episodes, violence, smoking, drinking, trauma, drugs, and real-life events that occur. +18 Votes and Comments help me a ton, so please feel free to do so.

The Way Love Changes You; Book One: Love's Firsts by redisle_love

Love can feel empowering. Love can be deadly. It can be the greatest thing to ever happen. It can be the biggest mistake that can't be reversed. It can feel like a dream come true. It can feel like a nightmare that you can't wake up from. Love changes people in many ways, from mild to severe, whether it's beneficial or detrimental in anybody's life, no matter if you're lesbian, gay, straight, bisexual, pansexual, or a person who just loves people without a label. How does love change you? ******* It's like your basic high school love story, except it's with adults in their early-mid 20s, and they're either still in college or have graduated from college and have jobs. It's a modern slice of life narrative novel about lesbians trying to find true love or wanting to get back into the love game. Five of these lovely characters share their own little tales of how love changes them first go, or their first time in forever! Their perspectives on love as it takes effect either get sensual, dramatic, or to the extent of a slow burn, as they also deal with life's obstacles along the way and share a part in each other's stories. There are ups and downs as their own stories go along, and it all gets more suspenseful towards the end where problems unfortunately arise. Will things get better or worse from here for these lovestruck lesbians as the story goes on? [Content/Trigger Warnings- the main warnings are scenes of sexual activity, and suicidal talk/attempt, along with mentions of said attempt. Everything else is listed inside the book! Please read the list before reading the book!] [Word count: +140,000 words...I write a lot, but enjoy anyway!]

Stuck on the Puzzle - Dragon Age Inquisition - Bull/Cullen by PiaFoxhall

Cullen Rutherford, overwhelmed with his duties at Skyhold, wants to manage his anxieties with controlled pain, and decides The Iron Bull is the best person for the job. But The Iron Bull wants to do things like 'aftercare' - which Cullen has no interest in at all. * Once, back in Kirkwall, Cullen had an arrangement with a member of the city guard that satisfied his needs. But time changed all things, and he despaired of ever finding a similar arrangement again - that was, until he met The Iron Bull. Problem being that Bull seemed to care far more about sorting out the nitty-gritty of such an arrangement than Cullen ever has. Kink negotiation? What on earth would there be to talk about? Safewords? Defining what one wants and doesn't? Cullen doesn't understand why The Iron Bull wants all of these things, and slowly, The Iron Bull comes to understand that someone has treated Cullen badly in the past. Content Warnings - Explicit sexual scenes, Graphic violence, Explicit BDSM including pain-play, CBT and flogging (including non-sexual BDSM), PTSD, Past emotional and physical abuse, Disturbing themes (including around religious brainwashing), Drug use, Drug withdrawals, Past torture [[Finished wordcount: 230,000 words]] [[Originally published on AO3 under the username @thespectaclesofthor]]

The Other Guy (BoyxBoy) ✔️ by geekiechicforall13

"I walked over to where Aaron was sitting on the ground, kneeling so that I was face-to-face with him. He was wearing a blank expression on his face so I guess he didn't really care if I kissed him or not. I took in a deep breath before taking his face in both of my hands and swooping down to kiss him. At first, I was so nervous I didn't realize that we were already kissing but after a few moments, I realized how soft his lips felt on my own. Before I can register it I felt him moving against me. I would have gotten off of him but I realize that he wasn't moving to get away from me. No, He was moving his lips against mine." °°°°° Aiden Moore isn't extraordinary. He has average looks, he is OK with sports, and his only strong point is that he is smart (although that doesn't mean much to his fellow classmates). And, of course, his virgin ass has never had a girlfriend, let alone a crush. It seemed as if he would never find someone. That was until he met her, Scarlett Hale. She was the most beautiful girl you will ever meet. Kind, sweet, and one of the few people with a higher GPA then him, she was amazing and Aiden imagined that she would be all his. Once Aiden gets rid of her boyfriend, Aaron Tyler. The most annoying guy you will ever meet, Aiden gags just thinking about him. The man is smoking hot and makes Aiden's dreams of getting the girl to seem very impossible. So what would happen if Aiden gets involved with the wrong person? Will Aiden get the girl? Will he fall short? Or will he fall into the arms of a guy who is in love with the girl he loves? _______________________________________ WARNING: First book EVER! The best part about this book is that it has some funny bits and introduces you to characters I use for a while. But, if you don't like the writing, please consider one of my newer works 😊 Started: May 10, 2016 Completed: September 2016

F***in' Arizona by melanatedmelon

How bad could it be to enlist your female best friend into helping you lie to your Christian family about your new relationship with your male best friend and about your newfound sexuality? Not that bad, right? Right??? --------- Nova Queen and Arizona "Ari" Matthews weren't always close in high school, but after an intense and serious conversation in the library one day, the two become the best of friends until they go their separate ways their freshman year of college. Now in their mid 20s and freshly out of grad school, they are reunited in the park of their hometown where Ari asks a huge favor of Nova that she later wishes she had refused. But in the end, will she really wish she had refused? *FA spans a timeline from 2010-2020 to help the reader see how the relationships were built between characters in a partial series of flashbacks. It also helps the reader to really see into the minds of Arizona and Nova as they age, and the effect different life events have on them. It's a bit of a slower build and the plot is mostly seen a little later in the book, but I promise it's worth it. 🙂 *I do not own any of the rights to the music nor the pictures. *Rated M for language, sexual content, destructive behaviors, suicide, and dialogue that may be triggering for some readers. *These characters may do or say things that you don't agree or may get upset with, please remember YOU ARE NOT THESE PEOPLE, and their lives are a work of fiction and my imagination. Thank you and please enjoy the story if you choose to continue. 1st Place Undiscovered Awards in LGBTQ! ✨ A #AestheteCertified book ✨ A Fairytale Awards best ship name Honorable Mention ✨ A Fairytale Awards Honorable Mention ✨ A Lollipop Awards Honorable Mention in LGBTQ ✨

Despite that she still had a lot of friends that where supportive of her, on social media she did a lot of cosplay and Lolita post along with makeup tutorials that gave her even more popularity. Her parents didn't believe her nd wanted her to get married, crossed the last line in setting her up with an arrange marriage without her telling her right away and discovered there dirty secret by accident. The result was her moving far away as possible and telling her followers and they offered her finance support. Nicole ended up moving to Seattle, Washington which was more than far enough if the united states for her. She had enough to buy a house in a quite neighborhood, little did she now she across the street from a very different family. Not long after she meet them there grandfather started taking interest in her a little too much and when he saved her from her arranged fiancé that tried to forcefully take her back his feelings for her turned to obsession.

A Breath of Fresh Air by HeyImZackC

For 17-year-old high school senior Evan Brooks, life could be better. He's a social outcast at school, stuck in a rural Alabama small town he never wanted to move to, and he's got a secret he's desperately trying to keep: he's gay. When he embarks on a weekend vacation to the Florida panhandle with his hypermasculine brother, homophobic stepdad, and aloof mother, none of them can anticipate how much a simple 3-day trip will change their lives forever... **2025 Update: Hi! This was my very first attempt at crafting an entire story from scratch all the way back in 2020, and I'd like to think my writing has since improved. I've started working on a big rewrite project, so stay tuned for a newly enhanced story! Please visit the last chapter (2025 Rewrite Info/Updates) for more details. In the meantime, the original story will remain here in full - just know that I know some parts of it are cringe lol. I hope you still enjoy it though! :) Some details have changed between this story and Road to Rockdale in anticipation of the rewrite, so please excuse some inconsistencies if you're coming from that story. I promise everything will line up eventually! CONTENT WARNING/TRIGGERS: Please note that this story contains very strong language at times and some mature themes. Some characters face emotional abuse. There is also a small amount of physical abuse, but it is mostly implied apart from one scene which is not extremely graphic. Some characters are homophobic, and a slur is used a handful of times.
