I would like to say I always knew who I was. For a while, I thought I did, thought I was one of those people born with an internal guidance system who knew every right choice to make for themselves. But the reality is that I didn't. I went through my first twenty-four years of life stumbling over broken promises, misguided choices, and lost lovers. I caused insurmountable grief and suffered it, too.
Eventually, I found myself. Understood who I was and the person I was meant to be, but this story is not about that. This story is about something even more complicated than coming out as a lesbian when you made a name for yourself by only writing straight love songs. No, this is harder. Because, before I grew into who I am today, I dated my best friend.
Then I broke his heart.

Rejected Flame Wolf
Hunter Anther was like an open book, he'd never been afraid to be his true self. Especially his sexuality. However not everything is for everyone. Being born to the one of the largest pack to ever exist, he wasn't accepted. Everyone hated him and often bullied him, even his family. He'd hoped that after meeting his mate, regardless of gender he would finally find peace and happiness. But the moon goddess truly wasn't fond of him because in addition to being an outcast, he wasn't blessed with a wolf. What happens when his future Alpha, aka biggest bully and former friend turns out to be his mate. Will he accept and care for him or make him lose the last bit of hope he had? Like a saying goes 'The grass isn't always green on the other side.' *** "I didn't mean it.. I.. I was young and ignorant..." he tried to explain while clenching my hand, I looked at him in disgust and pulled my hand away. "What about me? How old wad I to deserve all the things you did to me?! Tell me, how was I different from you? Four years ago you rejected me after everything you've done to me. It wasn't enough punishment for you, you didn't even spare me a glance after ruining me. You left me, you are not gay." My voice trembled bit at the end but my face remained as emotionless as ever. I will never give him the satisfaction of seeing me vulnerable, not again. But why does my heart feel like it's bleeding? Shouldn't I be hating him and happy that he's on his knees begging me. So why am I tearing along with him? **** 25/02/24 - 9/08/24 **** A/N How many of us believe in second chances? Does love really conquer it all? This is not a 'love is blind' story, if you're looking for one.Complete![Meant to be [MxM]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/391422423-256-k629821.jpg)
Meant to be [MxM]
Placed 1st in the Fathomless Verse Awards in the LGBTQ+ category, and 3rd in the Werewolf category - 20th August, 2025 ~*~*~*~*~ "Yul?" "Yes?" "Do you believe in fate?" "I think...some things...are meant to be." ~*~*~*~*~ Yul and Kaine were bonded by fate. Yul had always had a certain pull towards the ravenette, ever since they crossed paths in junior high. Kaine found him irritating because he was a half blood. When Kaine found out that said half blood was his mate he refused it. No way would he accept a half blood as his mate. Turns out that refusing the bond was not as easy as saying 'No thank you.' Yul had his own battles to fight. His once kind mother had suddenly started treating him like he was the worst monster and he had to fight through every single day. It didn't help that he was also different. Abnormally different. In junior high he met Lizzy who over the years became his grounding anchor. Without her, he may have drowned. Without her, he also would have never learned how to play the guitar and he would have never stood in front of people and sing his songs. He would have never started living his childhood dream. After he found the courage to stand up to his mother he also got more involved with Kaine and soon found himself craving the time he spent with the handsome boy. Never in his wildest dreams did he ever see it coming that they would develop a relationship that was constantly put to the test. ~°~°~°~°~°~°~°~ This Book is a journey for myself, to see and find out what kind of writer I want to be. I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoy writing it :) Started: 19th of March 2025 Finished: Ongoing

Alpha Black
"What makes you think you have something about your mate to complain about. So what he doesn't spend all his time with you." I growl at my friend whom is complaining about her mate. "I would give anything to have my mate at least acknowledge that I'm here. My mate doesn't love me. He is cold and all I asked for was for someone to love me. I sleep in a guest room, I barely sleep, I don't have arms wrapped around me to protect me from my bad dreams or my nightmares of my past, you have nothing to complain about, my mate treats me like I'm not even there. But here you are. Complaining that you think yours has been distant. At least you have someone to comfort you at night when your sad or scared." I yell at her with tears down my face before running off out of the house and into the woods. Little did I know, Black was listening... The whole time. My name is Katalien Chinkcato. I am a legendary werewolf with a wolf form that has Phoenix colored fur. I am a powerful wolf sent to earth by my mother whom is the moon goddess. I was given a mate with no heart and no feelings of love or mercy. His name is Darnel James Black. The alpha of the Blackwood pack. The strongest pack in America. Maybe even the world. With a pack of almost 7,000 wolves and a territory that expands over 5 states. He has 5 betas and 5 thirds. One beta and third for each state. His main state is Colorado and the other states boarder it. His wolf stands at 8 feet tall. And it's pitch black. This beast has been given to me as a mate and I know I accept and love him. But I pray to my mother, to help him find it in his heart to accept and love me back. Rated #2 in AlphaBlack 3/2/2020Complete

The Way Love Changes You; Book One: Love's Firsts
Love can feel empowering. Love can be deadly. It can be the greatest thing to ever happen. It can be the biggest mistake that can't be reversed. It can feel like a dream come true. It can feel like a nightmare that you can't wake up from. Love changes people in many ways, from mild to severe, whether it's beneficial or detrimental in anybody's life, no matter if you're lesbian, gay, straight, bisexual, pansexual, or a person who just loves people without a label. How does love change you? ******* It's like your basic high school love story, except it's with adults in their early-mid 20s, and they're either still in college or have graduated from college and have jobs. It's a modern slice of life narrative novel about lesbians trying to find true love or wanting to get back into the love game. Five of these lovely characters share their own little tales of how love changes them first go, or their first time in forever! Their perspectives on love as it takes effect either get sensual, dramatic, or to the extent of a slow burn, as they also deal with life's obstacles along the way and share a part in each other's stories. There are ups and downs as their own stories go along, and it all gets more suspenseful towards the end where problems unfortunately arise. Will things get better or worse from here for these lovestruck lesbians as the story goes on? [Content/Trigger Warnings- the main warnings are scenes of sexual activity, and suicidal talk/attempt, along with mentions of said attempt. Everything else is listed inside the book! Please read the list before reading the book!] [Word count: +140,000 words...I write a lot, but enjoy anyway!]Complete
From An Omega To A Hunter
"Look your too weak I can't accept you as a mate you'll only shame yourself and this pack " my own mate said to me . . . . My mate rejected me on my eighteen birthday and the day after my own parents was backing him, so to telI you the truth I couldn't handle that but as much as I cried over it I knew the reason he did it tho, every pack has a trial or test that the alpha's mates has to take in order to become the Luna of the pack I know it sounds stupid but that's the law that the alpha king declared after the war that took place, most alpha lost there mate because they weren't able to defend them self or the pack so to put it simple if I don't have strength and knowledge I can't be Luna Being the alphas reject mate was not a pretty repetition for me, especially since i know that there's gonna be contest to pick out the most fairest she- wolf of them all while I'll be at home sulking about it, so in that instance I made up my mind and left the pack and everyone behind as well. After that I found myself being Something I never dreamed of 'a hunter' and not just any hunter but 'an assassin hunter' never have I heard of a werewolf being a hunter much less an omega, most would have laughed but now I'm feared. After four years of my disappearance I was sent on mission back to my old pack, somewhere i never dreamed of seeing again but here i was seeing the people i once called family and the place i once called homeComplete

Tattoos everywhere and piercings galore--he is the epitome of a bad boy, and his timing couldn't be any more terrible as her past threatens her future. But she can't resist him, falling fast and hard for his sculpted body, Australian accent, and touch that sends her heart racing.

I closed the space between us until our lips met and shut my eyes.

My heart was racing as I placed my hands on his chest, slowly sliding them toward his back. Am I doing this right? His body shifted and he grabbed my hips, nudging me to lay down.Complete

Not Your Luna (Formerly His Rogue Luna)
He grabbed me, and I felt tingles go up my arms. I started to thrash around trying to get out of his grip. As much as my wolf wanted him, I didn't and I wouldn't give in. "Let me go, dammit", I practically screamed at him. "No. You're mine", he screamed back, sending shivers down my spine as I began to relax into him. I jumped suddenly scared that if I didn't stop myself then I would never want to go. I knew what I had to do. "I, Emma St. Germain, reject you, Aiden Douglas, as my mate." I sent him a pitiful look as he fell to the floor, through the mate bond I knew he was in pain. "I'm sorry," I whispered before running as far away from him as possible. ***** She didn't want a mate, she just wanted to survive long enough to avenge her family. So when she finds out that Aiden Douglas, Alpha of the Blood Moon Pack, is her mate, and he cheats on her. She rejects him and runs. He is trying to fight for her while she fights her demons. What is she supposed to do when her demons become real? ***** Disclaimer: This is not a book with a happy ending or a love story. If you want a happy ending, this book isn't for you.
