Anaelus always knew his mate would come. After all those years of fighting for survival after the last of his coven had been hunted down, he had only that to look forward to. 

So when Ember comes along, little does he know, the minx wasn't going to immediately fall into puppy love just from a shining smile and a smolder of eye gazes. Life is never that easy, and Ember's going to have to work for it. How else is he supposed to know exactly what he's getting into by daring to approach Anaelus? 

Well, they say curiosity killed the cat.

But satisfaction kept him coming back.

The Sun Beneath the Moon's Watch by Takoyaikski
8 parts Ongoing
Hayden Wright, a human born in the Sun Kingdom, was raised in a happy family in a lush and bountiful region, surrounded by people who adored and fawned over his kindness and beauty. But he holds a secret his family has kept hidden for years, hoping he could suppress the magic surging inside him and the ultimate responsibility he must bear. Caelus Elara, the elf prince of the Moon Kingdom, was strictly groomed to be the heir to all of fae and elven society. Despite the handsome façade and quiet demeanor he showed to everyone else, there was a spark of kindness and playfulness in him that only Hayden could bring out. One night, when Hayden was still a child, he crossed the stone border between the human realm and the Fae realm. While in a mystical forest he had never been to, he met a young elf with long, pointed ears. "Prince Caelus," the elf introduced himself. Delighted by the first human he had ever set his eyes on, he showed him his magic. To his surprise, Hayden mimicked his tricks, which led him to wonder if the person he was talking to was even human in the first place, as no humans could ever possess such magic. This drove Caelus to seek answers, hoping to help his newfound friend. Before Hayden returned, they promised to keep in touch until they discovered the reason for the human's powers. They continued to meet secretly until they both reached the age of 18, keeping the promise they had made as children while also hiding another truth-their growing attachment to one another. Two boys bound by eternal duties: the chosen one and the elven prince, caught between a looming disaster and their own burdens. Will they speak their hearts before time runs out? Note: "The Lore of the Two Realms" contains valuable information and context about the terms, places, and personalities found in this book. You can either read this chapter for a better understanding or skip it to avoid spoilers. Happy reading!

55 parts Complete Mature
Growing up in chaos isn't simple for all. Not many could cope. They would struggle and kick, but ultimately drown. However, for Dakota, that was his normality. Torturing. Maiming. Killing. That was his life, the life of a hunter. The Arizona line was elusive, written fame in the lore of hunters, and infamy for their prey. They were the best. No one could ever compare to their skills, their abilities, their ruthlessness. But Dakota was something else. His siblings might have learnt to enjoy the hunt, well most of them anyway, but Dakota didn't. There was always something missing for him, something he was waiting on. Silent and everlasting hope. A promise had been made to him, the day his twin brother was stolen, taken by the enemy, plucked right from the very home the Arizonas had grown up in. A promise of something better, something that he might actually want in his life. Now, almost sixteen years later, something was coming. A change was begging to be found. Maybe it would be for the best. Maybe Dakota would finally find that certain something that had been missing his whole life, something to fill the dark and fractured abyss that ached and wailed within. But nothing was ever that simple. Because, of course, the promise that had been made to Dakota would never be anything plausible for him, anything tangible to have and to hold. He had been promised a new life, by the greatest enemy of them all. It wouldn't be easy. Not with his family still clinging to his heels, the teachings of blood and violence burnt into his mind. No, leaving them behind wouldn't ever be easy. Then again, staying with them would only bring his inevitable death. Why not take the chance to die happy? After all, out of the ashes, a phoenix will rise...

Book One of the Haunted Lover's Duo "People in the real world always say, when something terrible happens, that the sadness and loss and aching pain of the heart will 'lessen as time passes', but it isn't true. Sorrow and loss are constant, but if we all had to go through our whole lives carrying them the whole time, we wouldn't be able to stand it. The sadness would paralyze us. So in the end we just pack it into bags and find somewhere to leave it." - Fredrik Backman, My Grandmother asked me to tell you she's Sorry. Still wrought with grief from the loss of his older brother, Eden Moir seeks out Malcolm Reed, the best SN lawyer currently working in the surface world. His intentions are mere justice for his brother, who was wrongfully murdered by hunters. Eden has been juggling work and home life, or more like drowning in it, and is in a constant struggle with the tight budget that is being washed away by his mother's drinking problem. Yet, Eden yearns for more as he gets to know Malcolm. He desires for the witch to be more than his lawyer, despite how detrimental it could be for his brother's case. Love is worth the risk, after all, right? Sadly, Malcolm might not see things the same way, looking at the bigger picture, not wanting to cost those around him the career he has built all for his own selfish wishes. But, in the end, there is something far worse at play, lurking beneath the shadows, waiting for the right moment to pounce... waiting for the right opportunity to dredge up the agony within Eden's heart once again.
