In the future humans have acquired the ability to drain the energy of other lives. Their dreams and aspirations of what they could achieve with this new found skill turned them insane. Everyone turned against each other- families, friends; no one could be trusted. Greed and selfishness ruled their lives, and soon enough, fear. The world became a bloodthirsty place where everyone murdered for power. Without civilisation the world was corrupt. Now, one year into this new world, food, water and medicine was scarce, and people would kill to get their hands on it- literally. That's why when three people receive anonymous tips about where these resources are , they go without hesitation; without thinking it through. Who knew that decision could change their lives forever?
Follow these three survivors through a journey of adventure, grief, betrayal, and hope.
Will they make it through the revolution alive?

It was dry but it was an addictive sound. "No," he brought his nose against her collar, "not at all." His lips skimmed over her exposed skin. She sighed at his touch, riding the sweet, overwhelming waves that came with. "You've barely touched me," Aeress had her hands skimming up the back of his neck and in between his strands. "And I'm falling apart." His voice was a little hollow and this worried her. "The bond we have is responsible for that." She tugged at him until he looked up. For a moment she just basked in how handsome he was. "I don't think so," she leaned in for a kiss, "I think that you are just about the most fascinating man I have ever met. And we have only just met. I don't think a bond can simply erase the will of an independent woman like me." His eyes came to life with a blazing fire. He closed the distance between them and kissed sensation back into her body, setting off every nerve in her flesh. Everything came to a boiling point, sizzling with need. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ °°MATURE AND EXPLICIT CONTENT OF ALL KINDS, AND I MEAN ALL KINDS°° Highest Rank: #7 in Werewolf, #79 in RomanceConcluida

There's something lurking in the woods. Sent to investigate the rumors of human experimentation surrounding an esteemed genetics laboratory in the middle of the Northern California forest, Special Agent Anna Volkova quickly realizes that this new assignment has her in over her head. With women vanishing, and the townspeople deathly afraid of the woods blanketing the small town of Blackwater, she knows this area isn't nearly as innocent as it may seem. The forest is hiding something, and she'll do whatever it takes to find out what. What she doesn't realize, however, is how far some people will go to keep their sins, and everyone who knows about them, buried. ~*~ Sickening cracks of bone filled the once-silent room, accompanied by the rapid beat of my heart and his echoing cries of anguish. Without warning, his head snapped up, and I could finally see his face clearly. My breath caught in my throat. His once warm amber eyes faded, tainted with a blood red that slowly dominated his irises, painting a feral crimson gaze that was now focused entirely on me. ---------- A new chapter will be posted every Friday!

Death Stranding: The Complete Saga
The year is 2050, and the world is a shadow of what it once was. On December 31st, 2049, a massive asteroid struck Earth, unleashing devastation on an unimaginable scale. The collision engulfed the planet in flames, erasing entire cities and wiping out 80% of all living beings. Once-vibrant landscapes have turned to barren wastelands, and the remnants of humanity are scattered and struggling to survive in the aftermath of the cataclysm. What remains is a harsh and unforgiving world where survival comes at a cost, and trust is a luxury few can afford. The story follows 11 Smith, a man who awakens on January 9th, 2050, in the center of a massive crater-the impact site of the asteroid. Disoriented and alone, he discovers that the Earth is now a desolate wasteland, filled with dangers both seen and unseen. As he begins his journey, 11 encounters allies like 24, 42, 22, and 12, each with their own burdens to bear. Together, they uncover the truth about the asteroid and its far-reaching consequences. But lurking in the shadows is 3, a powerful and enigmatic adversary determined to control what's left of humanity. Joined by the ruthless 41 and 48, 3 will stop at nothing to achieve dominance in this shattered new world. *NOTE* Everyone is mortal in "Death Stranding." Meaning anyone can die.
Runaway
I've been on the run for three years. I'm not the first, but I certainly won't be the last. For as long as I can remember, I had been experimented on, drugged to the brink of insanity, and tortured by someone I thought was my family. Boy, was I wrong. This isn't one of those stories where I suddenly get a huge boost of courage and defeat the bad guys then live happily ever after. I don't believe in that stuff anymore. Instead, I was a coward, and ran for my life, for my freedom, because I was too afraid to stand and fight and risk losing control like the monster they had created me to be. I've been too many people, have moved too many times. Now, I wonder if I will finally be able to find a place to call home... I won't allow myself to be captured before I even have a chance at that. Because if do, I'm as good as dead. © Sweetslover8 ~August 26th, 2013 ***Please note that the following is a work of fiction.

Rejecting the Alpha
Kylie survived the brutal destruction of her pack only to discover her cold alpha mate was the one responsible for the brutal slaughter of her family and pack mates. She can't forgive and she won't forget. Kylie cooperates with his demands while she searches for a way to free the remaining survivors and herself. Success teaches her just how complicated mate bonds can be and gives her the chance to choose her own fate. "Screw the mate bond. If I went for his throat while he was driving in human form, I might be able to kill him right now, and if I didn't succeed, the resulting accident might. I leapt for the front seat, powerful jaw ready to rip out his throat as he had ripped out my family's to take my revenge. Without even taking his left hand off the wheel, he blocked me by getting his right forearm between my jaws. I bit down as hard as I could, wishing to break his bones and sever the limb. Worse, I felt the tingles of our first contact where violence had connected us. The iron of his blood mingled with the other scents around me." (This is a dark story, but not the stereotypical one where she falls in love with her captor. This is the story of escape from a toxic relationship and finding healthy love.)

Thorn (Werewolf) ✔
She collapses down in front of me and runs her hands along my shoulders and down my arms. I close my eyes as she lifts my shirt over my head. "I can hear your heart racing," she whispers. I roll my head back as her lips press into my throat. I'm becoming so hot that it feels like I'm in transition. I run my hands beneath her shirt and up her back, pushing her closer into my throat. "Any requests?" she says. "Be gentle with me." "Really?" I smile before I grip the ends of her shirt and I tear it in half, all the way up her spine and all the way down the middle of her torso. It makes her gasp. "No," I say. ------------ Since meeting her mysterious saviour deep in the woods, ten things started to become clear. 1) Irresistible British men didn't just exist across the world. 2) Survival was a lot more complicated than just looking for water. 3) They were bonded together in a way that didn't make sense. 4) Her life, which was filled with so much human suffering, finally had some faint glimmer of hope. 5) She should have known that humans don't sleep walk every damn night. 6) The man ate animals raw and kept a mysterious, giant wolf as a pet. 7) Hunters will never stop looking for her. 8) She doesn't care. 9) Their desires burn for each other and it's out of their control. 10) Werewolves are real. This is Devon and Thorn's story. WARNING: Mature content. Sexual assault, attempted rape and violence. There is no possessiveness or abuse in this story between the love interests.
