Whisper doesn't remember much about the events leading to her current circumstances. A bright flash of light, screams in the streets, smoke, blood and the glint of flames reflected off of a dragon's scales...What she does know is that nothing in her life has prepared her for the peril she now faces, for the things she might have to do. Especially when one of her new travelling companions is a silver-haired elf with a dangerous secret...

The Whisper of Life [Gay Orcs]
The Whisper of Life, a story by TheOtherOre. Orcs have existed for millennia, most enjoying their lives on their origin island. Their history is vast and unfortunately, most of it hasn't been recorded. Turmoil and violence riddled the orc tribes for the longest time, until a great orc rose to unite them all. That orc is Ore Fa'aalnav. Ore spent his entire life helping the orcs grow, get over their differences and create the first orc kingdom. Now, he holds the title and duties of the Great King of the Great Orc Kingdom. When one of the orc expeditions into the rest of the world returns with a peculiar book about a certain type of magic, the king finds himself being reminded of how his people were created. Follow Ore as he embarks on a magical journey to create life with magic. Do you think he'd be able to create a hunk of a man, or will his weird experiment fail? The following story acts as an introduction for the fantasy world most of my stories are based on. I created my own lore around orc creation and existence, something that gets explored in this particular story as well.

Is it too late to say Sorry?
"The fuck you are leaving me." His roar cracked through the hall like lightning. Ara didn't blink. She stood there, calm as death, done to her core. No tears. No tremble. Just a weary exhale as she turned her back on him - the one thing he never thought she'd do. Before she could take a step, his hand shot out, gripping her arm like he was holding on to life itself. "Where are you going, Ara!" His command shook the pack. But she wasn't his to command. Not anymore. Ara ripped her arm free with a force that made even his wolf recoil. "Don't. Touch. Me." Her aura slammed into him, cold and merciless. "You think I'll stand here and watch you mate and breed her?" she hissed, every word a dagger. His throat bobbed. "She meant nothing." She laughed - sharp, broken, brutal. "Yeah? That's why you were fucking her in your office? Couldn't even hide the scent of your betrayal." "Ara, it was a mistake-" She stepped closer, eyes blazing. "Your mistakes come in episodes, Alpha. Season one, season two, season three. You don't make mistakes. You make choices." He swallowed hard. "I don't need her. I need you." "Lies," she spat. "Every damn sentence you breathe is a lie. I can't even look at you without feeling sick." He flinched like her words physically hit him. "That female behind you?" she pointed, not bothering to glance. "Perfect for you. Go mark her. Breed her. Hell, fuck her for all I care." Her voice cracked - but she kept going, blade steady even when bleeding. "I don't need you. Not anymore." His knees crashed to the floor. The mighty Alpha. On the ground. For her. "Ara... I'm sorry. I'm really fucking sorry." His voice broke like he finally understood what loss tasted like. She stared at him with a sad, devastating smile. "Isn't it too late for that, Mate?" One tear escaped - and she crushed it away with her thumb. Then she turned. Walked. Didn't look back. But he didn't chase her. Because he knew. He didn't just lose her. He wrecked her.Complete

Fated To The Orc King
▪️FANTASY ROMANCE▪️ "I didn't know that I had the right to say your name." "You don't and yet..." The Orc King's words trailed off, his breath coming out in a rough pant. I found myself extremely curious about what he was going to say, so I bravely tried to get him to continue. "And yet?" I probed. "And yet, I find myself intrigued about what it would sound like coming from that insolent mouth of yours." **** Izara was not very happy to find out that she was to be sent to the Orc King as tribute, an apology for something her brother did. Not being one to allow fate to dictate her life, she figured that she could make the most of it. Having always been curious about the Orcs, she is eager to live among them. King Baldur, however, does not share her enthusiasm, finding humans to be selfish and untrustworthy. He does not hold back, and uses every available opportunity to remind her of such. Unfortunately for him, Izara sees this as a challenge and vows to prove her worth. When an incident in the forest leaves King Baldur seriously injured, he quickly realises that he misjudged Izara and even finds himself becoming attracted to her in ways that he never anticipated. There is only one problem though, the Orc King isn't called Baldur the Butcher for nothing. Can he find it in himself to lower his guard around Izara or will she become the next victim of his blade? 🔅Rated R: Contains thematic issues, adult language, MATURE sexual content, violence and possible triggers. ------------------------------------------------- Cover Photo: Edited by @KimberlyTanithMarie using an image generated from Midjourney © All rights reserved 2023 I DO NOT consent to my story being translated, copied or otherwise reproduced by anyone.Complete

The Wolven King {18+} (Sample)
[COMPLETED] As I was beginning to relax, a new terror coursed through my body at his next word, "Strip." "Ex-excuse me?" I blurted out. I wasn't getting undressed in front of him, I barely knew him. He must have been trying to gain something from me and I doubted my fear and embarrassment was what he wanted. Adrenous didn't say anything as he drew his hands up my back and halted at the laces of my dress. I felt him tug at one of the nots and I instantly pulled away and turned to face him, no longer caring that his manhood was out for all to see. Just like that part of him, he too was a dick. "I'm not getting undressed in front of you!" I yelled at him. "Your mine, Alivia," My name passed his lips easily and hearing him say it did things to me which I didn't want to admit. Instead I glared at him, he said I was his as if I was some kind of possession that he could do with as he pleased. He added, "Let me take care of you." I didn't know what he meant by that, all I knew was that I had no intention of doing as he had asked. ✨🌕✨ BOOK ONE OF THE KING SERIES ⚠️ WARNING: this book is mature and should only be read if you are 18+.
