Despite a history of despair and uncertainty, she never let it destroy her way of life or spirit. Zaire has always been strong and unyielding, even when others would crumble at the thought; that's why I chose to answer her call.

Flammable - Taming the Hellhound (bxb)
"Are you sure you want to do that?" I say with a smirk on my lips. Nothing these wolves do could hold me back. I'd slaughter the whole of them in the blink of an eye, sadistically enjoying every last second of it. Ignoring my mate, it was best to act like I hadn't even acknowledged it. As soon as I figure out how to escape this so called 'dungeon', I'm leaving him in the dust without turning back. The alpha turned to me, rage lighting a fire in his eyes. "Absolutely." I chuckled and caught the confused glances the wolves gave each other. "Then you're in for a wild ride, my friend." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Damien Shuck, a 17 year old hellhound who some would consider a sadist. He lives for the death of others, fallen at his own blazing claws. He has lived off the grid for six years, ever since his family was killed by a group of supernatural hunters. Driven mad by his family's death and the brutal reality of life when you're constantly challenged and attacked by other supernaturals. He is the very last hellhound alive, and is constantly being hunted. No one knows who he is or what he looks like. The only thing they find is the trail of chaos, strife, and death he leaves in his paw prints. Axel Lyulph, son of Orion Lyulph, and future alpha of the Lyulph pack. Axel has it all, a supportive family, his best friend as his future beta, and one of the most popular students in Shadow Woods High School. He would be the happiest werewolf to ever live, if it were not for this relentless and anguishing feeling of not being good enough. He worries that if he doesn't meet his mate before he becomes alpha, he won't be able to provide enough for his pack. One day Damien crosses the wrong border, into the wrong pack, and finds himself in more of a struggle than he could have ever imagined.
Complications (MxM)
**WARNING** ~contains explicit content that may not be acceptable to all viewers. discretion advised~ "No no no no..." My words trailed "NO!!" I screamed, pulling harshly at all my restraints, attempting to get free, hearing the harsh clank of metal on metal with every movement. Colder than the table beneath me, chills ran through my body. This couldn't be happening, please. A sadistic laugh rang through the room and my head fell in defeat as my eyes squinted closed, not wanting to see his face. "Yes, actually." I felt his disgusting, filthy hands trail down my arms. I could feel him leaning forwards, moving himself closer to me. I couldn't bring myself to open my eyes, so I just lay there, waiting for what I knew was to come. "You're mine now, mut." His voice made my body tense more than it already had. The way he sounded so angry. So possessive. I dared myself to speak, "W-what ar-are you gonna d-do to me?" My voice shook and wavered so much in my fear that it was numb to my ears. Alpha Dave let out a low, calloused chuckle that sent chills throughout my body. He said, in a deadly low voice, "I'm going to remind you who you belong to." * DISCLAIMER- In this story world, each person gets five potential mates! * Blake Daniels' story has been one tragedy after another, Complications littering his route, tripping him on his journey through life.
