In the heart of the untamed Colorado Plateaus, the sleepy town of Winston guards a sinister secret, hidden in the shadows of its breath taking landscapes. Residents speak in hushed tones of bizarre animal attacks, and the unfriendly welcome extended to outsiders. Amidst this chilling backdrop, Jack, a world-weary journalist known for his pessimistic outlook, arrives with a thirst for uncovering the hidden truths. His mission is simple: delve into the peculiar occurrences and chronicle them in his journal.
Little does Jack realize that Winston's enigma runs deeper than the scars etched into the faces of its wary inhabitants. As he delves deeper into the town's mysteries, he unravels a nightmarish tale, where horror and tragedy intertwine with secrets that refuse to remain buried. In the arid desolation of Arizona, Jack will confront more than he ever imagined, as the town's chilling enigma slowly engulfs him. The line between reality and nightmares blurs, and Jack must race against time to document the unspeakable horrors lurking in the heart of Winston before they consume him. Prepare to be lured into the labyrinth of shadows, where the line between truth and terror vanishes, and the town's darkest secrets are poised to be unearthed.

Torn Between Enemy Alphas
She heard a low growl rumble in his throat and turned her head, shooting him a teasing smile before quickly testing the water again with her toe. It was perfect. She slipped in up to her shoulders before turning towards him and grinning. "Are you gonna join me Mr. Alpha?" She paddled backwards slowly away from him, her eyes wide and innocent as she waited for him to join her. She didn't have to wait long. In a matter of moments he was beside her, and he'd pulled her against his chest, his thick arms wrapped around her waist as his forehead pressed against hers. "Is this what you wanted? You little tease." She could feel his thick cock pressed against her, still hard as a rock as she wrapped her legs around his waist. "I'm not sure this counts as teasing anymore. Not when I want you every bit as much as you want me." Bending forward she brought her lips to the place on his neck where she had marked him, kissing it gently at first, and then flicking her tongue over the spot to taste the salty sweetness of his skin. "Fuck Fin. I'm done with waiting." She bit down lightly on the spot. Not hard enough to break the skin again, but hard enough to tell him exactly what she wanted. He let out a low moan, his grip on her waist tightening ever so slightly. "Fuck Baby, are you sure? I know we're already in trouble, but this will be in direct defiance of an order we were given by the Council." --------- Alice was almost certain that she didn't have a mate. She thought that he had been killed when her parents died, along with so many other pack members, during an attack by rogues. But everything changes on one of the worst days of her life, when she discovers that not only has be wrong about not having a mate, she's been wrong about who she can trust, and what happened on the night that her parents died. ------- ⚠️THIS STORY HAS EXPLICIT SCENES AND MATURE CONTENT.

Flame [Mx3] ✔
[Can be a stand alone!][Book 3] {Valleyside Pack} Christopher, Nicholas, and Caroline are first born triplets of Aaron and Vanessa Henderson. Normally, the alpha title would fall to the first born, but the title was passed to the three of them. Valleyside has three alphas, all of which are very closely united. Aaron's second born, Lukas, has earned the position of beta, seeing that previous alphas Milo and Will couldn't have biological children. Now, at the age of twenty-two, the triples are still unmated, and it's about time they find their mate. Christopher and Nicholas have always shared everything- from food to clothes and even lovers. It came to no surprise that they ended having to share a mate, too. Only... their mate is human. Now they have to earn his trust, earn his approval, and most of all, earn his love. Brandon Privati has been on the run with his older brother, Ian, for the past two years. After things got ugly at home, they left without turning back. With danger after them, both brothers are taken to the growing town of Berry Canester in the middle of the woods. It seemed closed enough, safe enough to settle for the remainder of Brandon's education. Only... another type of danger greets them and it isn't long until the two alphas find their mate. It isn't long before the danger finds them and it isn't long before secrets are brought to the surface. Only... Brandon doesn't know what is more dangerous- the two men who easily heated his body and create a fire, a flame, that completely burned him up... or his father. {Mature Audiences}Complete

"Sorry, Lahey, but I'm more of a cat person." Vera Pérez is no stranger to the supernatural. Growing up alongside the Hale family has kept her fairly well-informed about the creatures that lurk in the darkness. However, she didn't become one of those nighttime horrors until the end of her sophomore year- Derek had no choice but to turn her so she wouldn't die from her wounds after a kanima attack. The thing is, she didn't gain his fangs and claws. They say that the bite turns you into the shape of your character. Vera still isn't sure what to make of becoming some sort of glorified ghost. But with a pack of Alphas knocking on Derek's door and people disappearing left and right only to show up dead days later, she barely has time to think about anything else. It wouldn't be so terrible if it weren't for four specific facts: 1. The Alpha leader killed her father and may or may not be coming to finish her off. 2. Nobody seems to be safe from the mass murders in the town. 3. She has to spend more time than usual with Isaac Lahey, with whom she shares a mutual disliking. 4. Isaac pushes her buttons, but soon she starts to realize that she likes it. ©𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘭𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘤 2019 𝐭𝐞𝐞𝐧 𝐰𝐨𝐥𝐟 | 𝐬𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐨𝐧 𝟑 𝐞𝐱𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐝 𝐬𝐮𝐦𝐦𝐚𝐫𝐲 𝐢𝐧𝐬𝐢𝐝𝐞 𝐢𝐬𝐚𝐚𝐜 𝐥𝐚𝐡𝐞𝐲 𝐱 𝐨𝐜 𝐚𝐧 𝐔𝐍𝐂𝐇𝐎𝐒𝐄𝐍 𝐎𝐍𝐄𝐒 𝐛𝐨𝐨𝐤 WINNER OF 2024 ARMAGEDDON FANFIC AWARDS FOR "BEST ISAAC LAHEY FANFIC"Complete
