After a catastrophic breach aboard the research vessel Stella, 19-year-old Rin watches her world collapse. Her father sacrifices himself to get her to safety aboard the ship's smaller landing vessel hidden in its underbelly-but not before releasing one of their captured alien specimens and striking a desperate deal: its life and freedom in exchange for Rin's survival.
Stranded on the first planet she's ever set foot on, with nothing but a damaged ship and a creature that has every reason to abandon her, Rin is forced to learn how to survive. Yet whether driven by his own motives-repairing the ship and finding a way off-world-or bound by the promise he made, the alien does not leave her side. If anything, he begins to watch over her.
As days pass and survival forces them closer, the distance between them begins to blur. What starts as fear and necessity shifts into something far more complicated-something Rin doesn't fully understand, and perhaps shouldn't feel at all.
And when she begins to suspect that those feelings might not be entirely one-sided, she isn't sure she wants to fight them anymore.

Eirene nodded, and smiled at him, looking over his shoulder at the weapons rack several feet away. The guard leaned in to kiss her, and she let him. He immediately began to lick the seam of her lips, and peppering kisses around her lips. She could admit he knew what he was doing, but bile rose in her throat and she longed to push him away. Instead she pulled him closer, and wrapped a leg around his waist. He groaned and lifted her up, carrying her further away from his escape and weapons. She pushed away from him and smirked. She backed up further and pulled a knife off of the wall. It's silver blade imprinted with the royal crest. She approached him and dragged the point of the knife over his jaw and down his neck. His breath hitched and his heart hammered.

Beauty and the Fae Curse
Twist on Beauty and the Beast: Belle loves two things: to tinker and to read, and both have taught her that even a curse has moving parts if you are stubborn enough to look. When her father disappears on the road, the trail pulls her past the edge of the mortal world and into the path of Kael, a broken Fae king whose own magic is slowly devouring him. Forced into a bargain that binds her to his crumbling court, Belle trades quiet nights in her workshop for a realm of scheming nobles, dangerous enchantments, and a curse that has already taken everyone Kael ever loved. Armed with ink smudged books, half finished inventions, and the infuriating belief that monsters are rarely what the stories say, she begins prying at every secret she can find. As Belle digs deeper, she realizes that breaking the Fae curse will cost more than clever hands and a good library, and that saving a doomed king might mean risking herself and the world she thought she understood.Complete
