After the battle that united the packs and revealed the true power within him, Kyle thought peace had finally returned. He and Lucien are closer than ever-two souls bound by something ancient, radiant, and unstoppable. The pack has accepted him. The future seems bright.
But light always casts shadows.
When the Council summons the pack to discuss what happened that night under the sun and moon, Kyle becomes the subject of fear and fascination. Some call him a miracle. Others whisper that he's an omen of destruction. Even Lucien's unshakeable confidence begins to tremble under the weight of what Kyle might become.
Then a stranger appears-a new teacher at school with eyes like liquid silver and a smile that hides too much. His name is Varin. His presence feels wrong. And when he speaks Kyle's name, it's with a familiarity that chills him to the bone.
As old secrets rise and darker forces close in, Kyle learns that his light was never meant to simply illuminate. It was meant to fight the dark-and the cost of wielding it may be higher than he ever imagined.
Because every light casts a shadow.
And Kyle's might be the brightest-and darkest-of them all.

Reap the Earth at Which you Stand [boyxboy]
Growing up in chaos isn't simple for all. Not many could cope. They would struggle and kick, but ultimately drown. However, for Dakota, that was his normality. Torturing. Maiming. Killing. That was his life, the life of a hunter. The Arizona line was elusive, written fame in the lore of hunters, and infamy for their prey. They were the best. No one could ever compare to their skills, their abilities, their ruthlessness. But Dakota was something else. His siblings might have learnt to enjoy the hunt, well most of them anyway, but Dakota didn't. There was always something missing for him, something he was waiting on. Silent and everlasting hope. A promise had been made to him, the day his twin brother was stolen, taken by the enemy, plucked right from the very home the Arizonas had grown up in. A promise of something better, something that he might actually want in his life. Now, almost sixteen years later, something was coming. A change was begging to be found. Maybe it would be for the best. Maybe Dakota would finally find that certain something that had been missing his whole life, something to fill the dark and fractured abyss that ached and wailed within. But nothing was ever that simple. Because, of course, the promise that had been made to Dakota would never be anything plausible for him, anything tangible to have and to hold. He had been promised a new life, by the greatest enemy of them all. It wouldn't be easy. Not with his family still clinging to his heels, the teachings of blood and violence burnt into his mind. No, leaving them behind wouldn't ever be easy. Then again, staying with them would only bring his inevitable death. Why not take the chance to die happy? After all, out of the ashes, a phoenix will rise...Complete

Kyle thought moving to a new country would be just another challenge to face, but nothing could prepare him for the storm brewing at his new high school. Quiet, reserved, and used to blending in, Kyle has always kept his distance from people. But everything changes when he meets Lucien, the school's elusive and impossibly handsome track star. From the moment their eyes meet, something shifts. Lucien's gaze is intense, almost too intense, like he's searching for something Kyle doesn't understand. The attraction is undeniable, but Kyle can't shake the feeling that Lucien is hiding something - something dangerous. As their paths cross again and again, Kyle is drawn into a magnetic connection he can't resist. But the more he notices Lucien's strange behavior - the way he watches him, the way he seems to know more about Kyle than he should - the more Kyle starts to suspect there's something far darker behind Lucien's perfect exterior. Is Lucien really just a mysterious jock, or is there something far more complicated - and dangerous - lurking beneath the surface? As secrets begin to unravel, Kyle must decide how much he's willing to risk for a love he doesn't fully understand, and a person who might not be entirely human. Underneath the Gaze is a slow-burn, supernatural romance filled with mystery, tension, and an undeniable connection that will keep you hooked from start to finish.
