Bruised Not Broken
An emotionally charged werewolf romance.
Ryker didn't want a mate-especially not one like Zavier. Not dominant. Not persistent. Not someone who could look at the shattered pieces of him and still want more. Ryker just wanted to survive: to hide his bruises, bury his past, and stay invisible within the pack he barely felt part of.
But fate doesn't ask for permission. And when Ryker discovers that Zavier-the Alpha's infuriating golden boy-is his fated mate, everything begins to unravel.
Secrets come to light. Old wounds are torn open. And Ryker can't keep running from the truth: not from his painful history, not from his cruel abuser, and definitely not from the bond that keeps pulling him toward Zavier. Even when it terrifies him. Even when it sets him on fire.
As Zavier fights to earn Ryker's trust, Ryker must face the demons that have hunted him for years. Together, they'll uncover the kind of love that scars and heals in equal measure-if they can survive it.
Dark pasts. Reluctant mates. Brutal love.

Litany For The Broken
"He was made to be sacrificed. They made him theirs instead." Hidden beneath a cold, unnamed facility known only as VantaObelisk, the government holds four ancient hybrid beasts-creatures stolen from time, myth, and ritual. They were captured not to be saved, but to be broken. Studied. Weaponized. Each one a prisoner of flesh and memory, too dangerous to destroy, too powerful to control.They are fierce, rabid, cold, and unreachable-barely sentient in their rage, driven mad by pain, time, and betrayal. They are bound in containment, whispered about by terrified staff, and worshiped in secret by the cult. Then the fifth arrives. He is a fragile, fractured human-small, injured, nearly silent. Meant to be an offering. A trigger.The staff treats him like a lamb for slaughter. A final test before the facility initiates The Fifth Psalm: a transformation meant to awaken godlike potential from the oldest of blood. But what the facility doesn't know is that he is not a vessel. He is a mate. Only the beasts feel it. The ancient pull. The thread binding him to each of them. Something older than the labs, the machines, the language of science. They were made to kill. They can get immense power if they get mated. With that power they can destroy the facility and free themselves. But they doesn't want a mate as he only makes them weak. They fight it at first. They try to reject him. But the bond refuses to die. Instead, they remember. A voice. A warmth. A litany of connection. Somehow, this broken boy becomes the thread that binds them-the first act of tenderness they've known in years of cages and silence.

Man Or Monster
Callum Black. That was Callum's name, his identity, yet he was never called that. His family, his pack, his peers, and just about everybody else called him weak, pathetic, ugly, faggot, worthless. So that had become his identity, not Callum Black. Callum's father was the pack's Beta, and his siblings were the sort that made a strong pack leader proud. Callum had always been a bit of a runt, perhaps enduringly, until it was not anymore, until he was thirteen and decidedly Omega and it was embarrassing. To him, to his father, to his pack. Ryker Adam's was the son of the Alpha, and had everything going for him. He was gonna do great things and make his father proud. He was adored. So when the little, mousy male Omega turned out to be his mate he did not hesitate in remedying that. It was not really surprising; Ryker was Callum's public enemy #1 and the stuff of his nightmares. This was the beginnings of Callum's story. Callum ran. Callum ran into the arms of his found family and himself. And he was definitely not who he thought he was. A cruel twist of fate and the whims of the gods had changed everything. While he was gone the pack was changing too, including the people who had hurt him. Four long years had passed. And Callum was coming home, but he bore no resembles to the boy that had left. This was a man, a monster.Complete
