Darius had been one of many ordinary people pulled into Ashur's world from his own-and at the nick of time. The portal had been his only way out from the law after exacting revenge on his parents' murderer. But Ashur's world wasn't exactly a paradise either.
Faced with the threat of being sent back to the exact moment of his capture, Darius must find a way to get along with the ruler of this world-a powerful, god-like entity with an affinity for scorching sunlight, an insatiable hunger, and a magical mastery over flesh. And Ashur, in turn, must find a way to co-exist with this stubborn human who joins the long line of mortals who have attempted to truly understand him.

Forever My Love boyxboy (Sequel to Forever My Hero)
*This is a sequel to my USUK fanfic "Forever My Hero" but does not pertain to USUK! This is about their son! DO NOT EXPECT MUCH USUK* Aaron hasn't always had the best stroke of luck, aside from managing to be one of the rarest and most powerful creatures alive -- a mage AND a werewolf. But that is definitely where his luck ends. Being rejected by your mate is possibly the most painful thing that can ever happen to a werewolf, or anyone really. We've all read at least one overly sappy, heartbreaking story where something along those lines happens. Barely keeping himself together after having his heart torn apart, Aaron leaves for college, but things aren't rainbows and butterflies like he was hoping. When are they ever? Running into the man that stomped on his heart, and possibly falling for someone that isn't even his mate is definitely not on his list of courses. This poor boy doesn't have a clue where his life is heading, but life doesn't stop for anyone. Good luck, Aaron. You'll need it. ~~~ *Please excuse my horrible cover art. I did this myself*Complete

When Dalton somehow lives from his ordeal, he comes to the stark realization that he is just a meaningless side character in this story.

Starting the story from after Da-yeol left Tae-hyun Not really following the original story 3years later........ Three years ago, Lee Da-yeol walked out of Jo Tae-hyun's life and never looked back. After an emotionally intense and confusing relationship during their final year of high school, Da-yeol vanished without goodbye taking with him Tae-hyun's trust, warmth, and the only piece of comfort he ever had. In the years that followed, Da-yeol buried the past beneath ambition. Now, he's the founder and CEO of LUMIVEL, a luxury design empire, and lives a life of flawless control - clean lines, sharp suits, and no emotional attachments. Jo Tae-hyun, on the other hand, never moved on. Now a respected businessman at the head of BLACKROSE HOLDINGS, he is outwardly everything society admires: brilliant, successful, untouchable. But behind the image is a man suffocating in grief and guilt - blaming himself for pushing Da-yeol away. Silent panic attacks, sleepless nights, and hidden scars line his world. When the ache becomes unbearable, Tae-hyun turns to the only thing that numbs him: pain. Neither of them expected to see each other again. But fate doesn't ask for permission. They cross paths by chance in a luxury hotel lobby in Seoul strangers now, in name and form, but still tethered by the past.

Thank you for writing it :) Fated mates usually don't interest me because it's kinda weird how people just fall in love with strangers, so I love how awkward and how real you made it seem here ❤️" - @CandyCrushDBComplete
When Life Stands Still (Book #1 in WLSS)
~~~~ Please keep in mind that this is a BL (Boy's Love) and apocalyptic novel. Any normal apocalypse comes with a lot of issues - like violence, gore, abuse. As such this novel will have these topics and has been marked as 'MATURE'. If you are uncomfortable with any of this - please don't read the book. ~~~~ In a world unraveling under a relentless zombie plague, Ash Kage is more than a survivor. Born with unparalleled recovery powers, Ash has lived most of his life hidden away from the world in a secret bioengineering laboratory. His only companion was a biologically modified woman who spread the infection on her escape. Now on the run - haunted by guilt and hunted by those in search of a cure that hides in his blood, Ash finds shelter with a rather tough group of survivors. There he meets Rhys Grant - the handsome, strong, sharp eyed leader whom everyone looked up to. The attraction between them is immediately and undeniably, but so is the danger. When misunderstanding happens, an unconscious use of power causes fragments of memories of a shared past start to surface. Trust freys, desires burn and allies turn to enemies as they are drawn to each other but lack trust in one another. Will they figure out their differences or will the misunderstandings consume them? Can Ash escape the destiny of his past life and escape capture from the mad scientists who see his only value in being the cure?
