Dr. Amara Morris has waited her entire career for this moment.

Chosen to lead a groundbreaking archaeological expedition on a remote island off the Romanian coast, she finally steps into her role as site director-alongside her closest colleague, Olivia Andile. What should be the discovery of a lifetime quickly becomes something far more unsettling.

As the moon waxes full, the island awakens. Excavations uncover more than ancient ruins, and unexplained phenomena ripple through the camp-whispers in the dark, vanished artifacts, and a growing sense that the island is watching them. The deeper they dig, the clearer it becomes: this place was never meant to be disturbed.

Amid rising tension, Amara finds herself locked in a dangerous game of wills with the expedition's enigmatic mercenary commander-a man whose motives are as obscured as the island's past, and whose presence threatens to unravel both her authority and her resolve.

As buried truths surface and loyalties fracture, Amara must confront not only the island's violent history, but the shadows she's spent a lifetime outrunning. Some discoveries can change the world. Others demand a terrible price.

And the island always collects.

The Wolf Series #3: Between Two Worlds [COMPLETED} by LouMcAdam
50 parts Complete Mature
We are all half-human. Half-beast. But some of us are just monsters. + + + "Jace?" I meet his eyes. I hadn't expected this from him. I honestly hadn't expected him to do this in retaliation, "What have you done?" Sentinels. He let them know where I am. "He did the right thing." That voice. I freeze and let Jace slip through my trembling hands. I recognize that voice...and I recognize her presence. Turning around, one of the hooded guards steps forward. Her amber eyes flash, "You are a long way from home, Prophet Amelia." ... Five years have passed since Amelia was taken from Diurnal. Five years have passed since she started training at The Order. Now, she has returned. But she is no longer the same Wolf that left. In a race against Orion in a search for a missing relic to be used to destroy The Moon, Amelia must return to the places where those who betrayed her are. It is time to wrap up business left unfinished and settle unpaid debts. New alliances clash with old friendships-and it is not only Amelia beginning to question who the real enemy is. With the war between The Moon and Orion coming to light, the packs must choose which side of the conflict they want to be on. Many will begin to ask questions of their leaders and themselves-questions that Amelia had asked long before...and still searching for those answers. Time has changed and molded all, but not as much as Amelia. She reappears with far more secrets and truths than before-none of which the Wolves are ready for. The biggest: sometimes those who are good and those who are trusted are not mutually exclusive. The Prophet has returned, and these two worlds finally collide. + + + This is the third installation to a 4-part series. Series in order: Book 1: The Pack Book 2: The Beast Within Book 3: Between Two Worlds (On-Going) Book 4: The Soul of Iphigenia (Upcoming)

[Book One of the Lupus Noctis Series] "There are spirits that watch over us. And some that never stopped bleeding." When wildlife biologist Silas Cross returns to Tawenà Crossing, a remote Cherokee reservation buried in the Appalachian wilderness, he's hoping to confront a personal haunting - a childhood vision of something primal and monstrous beneath the blood moon. But Tawenà is changing. Animals are vanishing. People are dying - ripped apart with inhuman brutality. Elders whisper of an old guardian spirit twisted by forgotten blood rites, now awakened by desecrated land and restless souls. They call it the Wyrgheist: the Wolf of the Night. As Silas digs deeper, he uncovers a horrifying truth - his family blood is tied to the creature's origin. But he isn't the only one drawn into the storm. Reina Dorne, the tribal sheriff, has spent years trying to keep peace between tradition and law, but the killings stir old fears - and her own father's disappearance years ago. Lark Grayson, an amateur folklorist, thought she came chasing legends for her podcast. She didn't expect to survive an encounter with the Wyrgheist - or be marked by it. Deacon Bram Holloway, descendant of a settler priest, holds the key to a forbidden ritual passed down through guilt-stained generations - a ritual that could seal the creature away... or set something even worse loose. In a land where the dead speak in crows, the wind carries warnings, and blood never truly dries, the Wyrgheist has returned. And it remembers every name. > Some monsters are born. Others are conjured. But the worst are called home. <

"When do I get to meet you wolves?" I ask. "Whenever you want. Just not right now," Blake says. "We would lose control and they will take you right here right now." "What are your wolves saying?" I ask. "To smash you to the wall and pound you, so you won't be able to walk for the next week," Kole says. I look into his eyes to see them pitch black. I know that I am talking to his wolf. "I'm Tyler, Kole's wolf. It's so good to finally meet the love of my life." "It's nice to meet you Tyler," I say. I look over into Blake's eyes to see them matching Kole's. "What's your name?" "Alex," he responds. His eyes look over my body. "Your are so beautiful princess. Please let us mark you. Please," he begs. "Alex, that is enough." I look into Kole's eyes to see them back to normal. Alex whispers in my ears, "one day, we will go so rough with you and you will be screaming our names." I shiver under his words. He smirks knowing the effect he has on me.

Blood Moon Rising by Raziel2806
15 parts Ongoing Mature
In a world where the memory of a brutal war between vampires and other supernatural beings has faded into legend, a new threat emerges from the shadows. Over 500 years have passed since the vampires' bid for domination was thwarted, but now whispers of their return spread fear among those who remember the bloodshed. Artemis, a determined and courageous young werewolf, senses the looming danger. As the leader of her pack, she is committed to protecting her kin and preserving the secrecy of the supernatural world. However, her task is far from easy. The other werewolf packs, having enjoyed centuries of peace, are skeptical of the vampire threat and dismiss Artemis's warnings as mere paranoia. Despite her earnest efforts, Artemis faces skepticism and disbelief from other werewolves, who refuse to believe that the vampires are regrouping for a renewed assault. As tensions rise and time runs short, Artemis must navigate political strife, ancient rivalries, and the haunting memories of past wars to unite the supernatural community against a common enemy. Her journey is fraught with danger, as she faces not only the cunning and ruthless vampires but also the reluctance and infighting within her own kind. Artemis's resolve is tested as she balances her desire to protect her pack, maintain the secrecy of their world, and prevent the return of the Dark Ages. In a race against time, Artemis's leadership, bravery, and determination will be crucial in uniting the supernatural community against the vampire threat and safeguarding both their world and the unsuspecting human race. Will she succeed in her mission, or will the shadows of the past plunge the world into darkness once more?
