It was meant to be a mission of hope, a new dawn for humankind. The United Earth Star Ship Dominance carried explorers, soldiers, families-a city among the stars, a symbol of unity forged from the ashes of Earth's past divisions. Their destination was Andromeda, a promise of discovery beyond imagination.
But in the darkness of space, something stirred.
The voyage that began as humanity's brightest dream twisted into silence and shadow. Cryogenic pods shattered, corridors fell empty, and the flagship drifted off course into a future no one could have foreseen. What awoke in the void was not wonder, but a presence-unseen, unspoken, yet waiting.
Now, Lieutenant Dagr Magnusson must face the ruins of three million light years years, guided only by Helena, the ship's flawed AI, and haunted by whispers of a force that does not belong to humankind. What began as a journey of exploration becomes a struggle against the unknown, as hope itself is swallowed by the dark.

The Last Dragon Song by Lokitesseract0717
42 parts Complete
Jeanette Valemere grew up believing in a world no one else could see- a kingdom of dragons, elves, satyrs, and cyclops, where her grandfather once flew with the King of Dragons himself. But when tragedy struck, the truth was stripped away. Her family told her it was only fantasy. The book that held her bond was taken. And she was forced to forget. Years later, on a class trip to Japan, a stranger with golden-flecked eyes finds her. He claims to know her name, her past, and the mark hidden on the bottom of her foot. He says their world-her world-is dying without her. Jeanette laughs it off. Until the dreams return. Until the book finds her again. Until she stands once more in Mythraenys, where dragons take human form and every bond has a price. Torn between the life she's built and the truth she abandoned, Jeanette must reclaim what was lost, face a friend turned traitor, and decide whether to fight for a world she was born to save. Because in the end, only one song can awaken the last dragon... and it may already be too late.

'Sacmis' (formerly 'Alien Abduction') by AdrianaNicolas
67 parts Complete
Four women - a lawyer, a teacher, an athlete and a soldier - are abducted by four alien men. The aliens, far from being bug-eyed monsters, have 90% human DNA. Despite the circumstances, the women are fascinated by their captors. Particularly when they discover the men have taken time to learn everything about them: even down to filling the women's on-board wardrobes with their favourite labels! ("For an alien," says Amisha, "he certainly knows how to shop.") They also discover that the men have the power to connect with them at a deeper level. So much so that the women can experience - directly - what it is like to be a man! With amazing consequences. But danger threatens: not just the women, but mankind itself. On the aliens' home planet of Sacmis, a genetic disorder has resulted in male births massively exceeding female births. So much so that most men can never hope to have a relationship with a woman. Let alone sex. To save the planet from extinction, Sacmis has prepared a fleet of slaveships to abduct compatible women from Earth in large numbers, to be used purely for breeding purposes. Somehow, the four alien men and the four women have to stop them. © Adriana Nicolas 2016

Scentless Sovarielle (Scentmarked #1) by KT_Threadweaver
51 parts Complete
Sovarielle was born into a legacy of music and magic-one of the legendary sound dragons of Whispervale. But everything changed the day an attack stole her sense of smell, severing her from the bond that connects dragonkind. Exiled by instinct and grieving the loss of her family and horde, she vanished into the human world, learning to navigate life through sound instead of scent. In dragon society, scent is everything. It guides memory, emotion, and-most importantly-connection. It is how dragons recognize their mates. Without it, Sovarielle is considered broken, untethered... alone. Years later, a single misstep leads her back into dragon territory-and into a storm of long-forgotten alliances, mythical creatures, and rising tensions. From sirens guarding sacred seas to secretive centaurs with ancient wisdom, Sovarielle's path is shaped by those who see her not as damaged, but different. And as feelings deepen between her and a dragon who seems to know more than he says, she begins to wonder: If dragons find their mates by scent... will she ever truly know if she's found hers? A map of the country is included in the prologue, showing dragon territories, human cities, and key locations mentioned throughout the story. For readers who enjoy diving deeper, I've also created The Scentmarked Archive, which includes an interactive map and expanded lore exploring ancient dragon territories, mysterious islands, siren legends, shifter homelands, and more. You can find the link to the archive and map in my bio. Thank you so much for choosing to step into this world with me.
