To the kingdom, he is a legendary hero. To the dead, he is the man who stole their tomorrow.
Once a celebrated commander who led the King's men into "righteous battle," an aging soldier now lives out his final winters in absolute isolation. The glory of the crown has faded, leaving behind only a rusting sword upon the mantelpiece and a crushing weight of guilt. He is haunted not by his enemies, but by the faces of the young lads and old men he cut down in the mud-actions once hailed as valor, but now recognized as atrocities.
But the battlefield has followed him home.
Every night, he is trapped in a terrifying limbo. Frozen in his bed and unable to scream, he is forced to watch a silent, unnatural entity with hollow, pearly eyes slowly creep from the windowsill toward his throat. To survive the daylight, he abuses his senses-clinging to the bitter burn of a short black pipe and the taste of ruined, charred meat just to shock his mind away from the whispering dark.
Too proud to yield and too terrified of the madhouse to seek help, the old warrior faces his final, most brutal campaign entirely alone. As his strength fails and his mind unravels, he must confront the ultimate question: Is the creature in the shadows a demon of the night, or is it the vanguard of death itself, coming to collect the debt of his sins?

Valarie: The Vampire Prince's Maid
Valerie was never meant to be his. But Henry has never been good at letting go. Drowning under student loans, rent she can't afford, and a future slipping through her fingers, Valerie answers a newspaper ad that feels almost like a joke- a live-in maid at a private estate, no questions asked. She expects an eccentric old man. She does not expect him. Henry is hauntingly gentle, painfully isolated, and untouched by the human world he has kept at a careful distance. Raised in secrecy and self-imposed exile, he has spent his life trying to suppress the monster his blood demands him to be. Letting Valerie cross his threshold is a mistake he knows he should not make-and one he cannot bring himself to undo. What begins as shelter turns into fixation. Protection becomes possession. And lust sharpens into something dangerous enough to draw blood. Dragged into an ancient underworld of vampire royalty, ruthless power, and unspoken cruelty, Valerie finds herself bound to a man who would destroy anything that threatens her -- even if that threat is the world itself. Escape is no longer simple. Survival means choosing who you are willing to become a monster for. Because in Henry's world, love is not gentle... and it is paid for in blood. New chapter daily

The Outcast of the Moonlight Pack
Seth's expression was unyielding, his next words delivered with ruthless precision. "I, Seth Langston, Alpha of the Moonlight Pack, reject you, Ariah Lockwood, as my mate and as Luna of this pack. As Alpha, my word is law. I don't need your acceptance to sever this bond." I can't remember the last time I smiled-or even felt happy. My nightmare began the day I couldn't shift at ten years old, unlike everyone else in the pack. Since then, it's been an endless torment. Why am I the only one broken? Why must I suffer for something beyond my control? Why am I cast aside by those I thought were my family? But it's alright. Everything will be alright. Because I will be their downfall.
Baby Blue Bird
"Jesus Christ..." he muttered, swallowing hard. He reached out tentatively, his gloved fingers brushing against the infant's cheek. It was ice-cold. The baby's chest rose and fell faintly, each breath a Herculean effort. Beneath the child, the tarp was damp-not with water, but something metallic-smelling and sticky. Blood? Ramirez's stomach twisted. "Dispatch," he whispered hoarsely into his radio, forcing his voice steady. "Officer Ramirez, 9th and Mercer. I need an ambulance. I found an infant. Abandoned. Possible injury." . . "They found a baby in Gotham," Bruce finally said. "Abandoned in an alley. They ran a DNA test... and it matched you." Dick froze, the world around him suddenly quiet, as if the city itself held its breath. "What?" he said sharply, disbelief washing over him. "That's impossible."
The Last Alpha
18+ Content Warning - Read at your own discretion! +++ Werewolves have been extinct for as long as Evoni has been alive. Or at least, she thought they were. A dark and vacant woods has always bordered her town, but she has never dared enter them. Not until she makes the trek alone into the forest to search for a flower said to boost werewolf fertility. Only to encounter a terrifying and surprisingly gorgeous werewolf, who takes her back to his pack, that has remained hidden from humans for centuries. Unable to return home, Evoni faces the reality that her captor is the last Alpha, and he has tasked her with solving a single issue - werewolves failing fertility.

Luna For Hire
After being rejected by her husband and Alpha in front of half the werewolf world, Allison does the only thing left that makes sense- she walks away.

No attachments. No politics. No pity. But fate has a sense of humor. Her newest client, Gordon Hale, is a widowed Alpha raising three daughters and holding his pack together by sheer will. What starts as a six-month contract becomes something far more complicated- professionally, politically, and painfully personal. Between grief, politics, and the slow burn of something she swore she'd never feel again, Allison must learn that fate isn't about who you're tied to - It's about who you become when the bond breaks.

Then one encounter with a fiery, stubborn human girl changes everything.
