For years, Anchor has lend a kind ear to those desperate souls and has offered words of encouragement as he polishes glasses and serves drinks. 

All this changes the second Cass stumbles into the bar. Carrying with her a tremendous amount of guilt and remorse, she begs Anchor to let her stay, so he offers her a warm bed and some tender loving care for the night. The outcome is not as expected.

This is my entry for ONC 2024 based on the following prompts:
Prompt #7: You are the barkeeper, the owner and operator of the resting point between life and the afterlife, being a kind ear to those who have passed on.
Prompt #25: Soulmates are real and dangerous. They hold the power to bring you back from the brink of death or tear your soul in half. And a devil with no heart is the soulmate that awaits you.
Prompt #32: A drunk dare and the biggest mistake of your life. A sin you can't wash off your hands. After all, blood leaves its traces and so does the taking of a soul.

She pauses and looks at me then puts down my paper and speaks to the crowd "She doesn't remember anything about being alive so she is an oddity and a collectible. Shall we start the biding at 10000 hellions". All the sudden many voices shout out some low deep voices some high voices and some don't even sound like voices just gurgles.

As the Crow Falls | ✔ by SmokeAndOranges

Niccola is a demi-queen undercover in enemy territory. Her little sister went missing seven moons ago, but one lead remains: a picture of a woman's face, drawn by a diviner shortly after the disappearance. Tracking her down has led Niccola to Calis, the realm next door whose border with her own remains closed for a reason. There, the trail goes cold. Until, that is, Niccola runs into a man in the marketplace who bears a family resemblance to the woman she seeks. His name is Isaiah, crown prince of Calis, and he's investigating disappearances, too. They join forces, faking courtship to sneak Niccola into the palace and get Isaiah's wedding-minded mother off his back. It doesn't take long to suspect that a common threat might underpin both their realms' problems. And as Niccola begins to develop real feelings for Isaiah, she's faced with an impossible choice: reveal her secrets and risk breaking his trust, or leave him in order to chase down the woman who stole her sister... a woman whose forbidden magic comes with a cost that could bring both realms to ruin. ❖❖❖ Complete and fully edited.

The Alpha's Summit by EvelynZook

NOTE: This is completed but unedited. It will be going through major changes soon including with plot and character changes. Once it is all changed, a notice of Completion will be added! Thanks! Sins and Secrets Book 1: "How do you think all your little Alpha buddies will feel," he hissed, his hot, rancid breath whispering across the back of my neck causing my stomach to sink, "When they discover the dark secret you've been hiding? Do you think they'll respect you still? Do you think that little mate of yours will still want you?" At the thought of Tiberius, my wolf went crazy. My body jerked at the restrained that held me down, the smell of burning flesh filling the room as the silver began to cut into my wrists. "Go to hell." We snapped as my whole body began to go numb. "Oh can't you see, my sweet little bird," he came closer, his lips practically pressed against the skin on my cheek, "You're already there." --------------------------------------------------------------------- My name is Cara Eldoran. I am one of two Alpha's within my pack. Two years ago, I stood frozen to the ground and watched as someone I loved killed my older brother in front of me. There were no screams or tears. My whole body had gone into shock, and I was left to watch the horrors unfold in front of me. But I will lose no one else. Alpha's are going missing. They are being taken from their homes in the middle of the night and are never seen again. Sometimes I wish that being taken was my biggest problem. That all I had to worry about was making sure my windows were locked at night and that I was safe in the arms of my mate, but there is much more at stake then most realize. I vowed revenge for my brother the day he died, and I will stop at nothing to get it. Not even the dark secrets that could destroy me will stop my lust for vengeance. ---------------------------------------------------------------------

Connection | 18+ by writes_ASQ

In the middle of their secrecy, they will find a connection they had never before. Secrets will be unfolded that they never knew existed and promises that were meant to be kept will be found broken. Chains were there to bind her hands. Instead, he ended up bounding his heart with her. Some things are meant to be kept in the dark but, indeed, what's done in the dark always comes out in the light. Not only will the hands be bound but their hearts will also be locked together. Their bodies will mingle and dance in the darkness of the night but where's the fun if it's always naked and in bed, right? Wishes will be granted. Fantasies will be fulfilled. Things were meant to be a game but they ended up playing with their hearts. The bro code will break along with many hearts. Ethan Hayes, 33, is a computer geek at the day, and dominant at night. For others, sex may be a necessity, and relationships may be a norm, but for him, it's a commitment that he has no interest in. An impossible connection, as rare as him being with any of his best friends' sisters. It's just not supposed to happen with the wrong person. But we can't always control everything. It's hard. Just like it's hard to control her. Olivia Camerson, 26, is an outspoken personality in daylight and an erotica writer at night under her blanket. She is not an innocent virgin girl. But it sure is unusual to find a trustworthy person to share her fantasies with. On the internet, she is famous for her intense, passionate, and kinky novels. She calls herself an expert who hasn't indulged in it in person. Goes by the name Evilo. Until someone found out what her username was. Sometimes not even the closest person knows your darkest secret. However, you may find yourself sharing it with someone you never imagined to even reckon with.

"It's rude not to be speak back, darling." The words were caught in my throat. It seemed I couldn't utter a word, much less a sound. He looked me up and down. He took in my full appearance.
