“I'm not going. I do have a choice babe, you see I know that you’re desperate to collect souls for your mission and whatnot, but I’m fighting for my life here.”
Arsinoe was beyond shocked. Refusing a chance for glory in Valhalla was another matter altogether, but now for the love of Odin did he know that she was missing her horn! 
"Look, you're beautiful babe, but it's just not going to work. At least not until I get my body back." Hale shrugged, carefully observing the woman before him, looking for signs that she was angry, or impatient or even amused, but she gave nothing away. 
"You cannot leave.” Her voice reverberated in command again. 
Hot, Hale thought, letting his imaginations run wild. Hmm, that voice in bed..., whispering in his ear, telling him exactly what he wanted to hear. He broke out from his reverie when he felt her grasp—firm and restrained—on his wrist. 
"Hey." He tried to pull back without success. Damn, the woman was strong. “I am not dead. If you would let me get back to my body I'll be perfectly fine." He tugged again.
"Now that," she said in an unhurried voice, the sound filling the air around him, entering his ear in a gentle caress, "is something I can't allow. Stop fighting destiny Hale Caradoc.”

                                         *********************

   As an Incubus, Hale Caradoc has had centuries to make a name for himself as one to 'make love not war'. But with growing unrest in the underworld, Hale is forced to take a stand and leave the luxury of his extravagant life for the battle of Nark.
   Arsinoe Rowan Asger has spent millennia collecting warriors for Valhalla, her sole purpose was to serve as the most devout Valkyrie. But when her new ward tries to run off on her watch, it is more than just a question of duty. This time, pride is on the line and something far greater...

"Goddess of the Shieldmaiden" A Vikings x MCU Romance Crossover   by Chris9417
17 parts Complete Mature
When Odin banishes his true firstborn daughter to the mortal realm, Hela Odinsdottir plummets from the sky and crashes into the world of Vikings. Stripped of her divine power and left with nothing but rage and pride, she awakens in Kattegat-wounded, furious, and fully mortal. There she is discovered by Lagertha, a shieldmaiden destined for greatness, who offers protection instead of fear. Lagertha has faced kings, rivals, and treachery, but never a fallen goddess with eyes like midnight and a heart trained for war. Despite their differences, a fierce connection forms: the mortal queen who refuses to bow and the goddess learning to bleed. As Hela begins to reclaim her strength, whispers of her presence reach beyond the mortal world. Asgard wants their lost weapon returned. Thor and Odin descend, threatening Kattegat with annihilation if Hela refuses to submit to her chains again. To save the woman who taught her the meaning of love, Hela must choose between the realm that betrayed her and the only soul who has ever seen her as more than death itself. Their passion could reshape destiny-or ignite a war the gods will not survive. A bold reimagining of Thor (2011) merged with Viking history and legend, where love defies the gods and a shieldmaiden captures the heart of the Goddess of Death. Content Warning: This story contains mature themes including violence, war, trauma, death, and the darker nature of power within both mortal and divine worlds. It also features an adult lesbian romance with explicit sexual content between consenting characters. Historical brutality, morally complex decisions, and intense emotional conflicts are present throughout. Reader discretion is advised, especially for those sensitive to depictions of battle injuries, divine punishment, and passionate relationships that include graphic intimacy.

"C- Can you move b- back a little?" My words made him smirk and if it's even possible, he came closer. Why do I always have to stuck between him and the desk?! "Why? Am I making you nervous?" "No." I lied. Ofcourse, he was making me nervous. His eyes had the power to hold a person on his place and that's what his eyes were doing to me. "Really?" He asked, putting his hands on my waist and pulling me closer towards him. On instinct, I put my hands on his chest. I didn't like it. I didn't like the way my body was responding to his touches. "T- This is un- unprofessional." I choked out the words, but I wish I couldn't have. He brought his face closer, so close that I could feel his minty breath on my lips. My lips parted accordingly in shock. "Oh, is it?" He said, mockingly. Oh god! What have I gotten myself into? •••• Aaron Steele, the CEO of the multi billionaire Steele's Company was the eligible bachelor of 25. He always had his way among girls and having blue eyes, a chiseled jaw and a hot body, didn't help either. With new woman on her arms every other day, he was obviously not planning on falling on that cliché word also called love, but would his thoughts of not falling in love still remain the same, after meeting her? Sienna Collins was a girl of 22 with extremely shy personality. After completing her graduation, the only thing in her mind was to get a good job and settle on her own, but what she didn't expected was a job at Steele's Company. This is a story of the innocent and the sinful. Read inside to find out what happens when two persons from exactly opposite worlds collide together. #I would suggest 14+ to read this story as some part in the book contains mature scenes. ~ # 37 in Romance #12 in humor *I am not a grammer nazzy, so there would be grammatical mistakes.*

"What are you?" He asks me, breaking the silence. I am quite shocked by this question. Mostly because I don't even know how to answer it. "Werewolf. I think... And you are a vampire," I state. He nods. "You don't smell like a werewolf." He lifts his hand to my neck, moving my hair aside, and looks at the bite mark on my shoulder. "And you don't taste like one." I breathe superficially, scared of what he might do next. "I would be lying if I said I didn't want to taste you again." He says, leaving his mouth slightly open. I just stare at him with wide scared eyes. He looks up from my wound and wink at me, causing him to smile a bit and show a fang. I blink a couple of times and swallow, trying to water my throat. He sees me struggling. "Need some extra saliva?" He almost laughs at me... Athena, an omega of the Blood Moon Pack, has her entire life ripped into pieces when she attacks the eldest son of the Alpha in an attempt to save her sister.

To atone for her passage between worlds, she must face the Lost Ones. Every time a human dies with deep regrets... they rot, and transform. These souls take shape, linger, attack. And now, they're hunting her. Fortunately - or unfortunately - she's not alone. Assigned to a sarcastic and unpredictable demon named Harley Blake, Alison must learn to survive, to fight, to make sense of this hidden world... all while resisting the strange bond forming between them. Harley is no guardian angel. She's blunt, fierce, and doesn't hide her contempt for humans. But behind the fangs, something slumbers. Something softer. And far more dangerous. And as the Lost Ones draw near... Alison begins to wonder: What if the most dangerous thing here... is what she's starting to feel for her own demon? A second chance. A deal with hell.

"You don't really like to open up, do you?" The words startle me, seemingly jagged and impure in contrast to the light and beautiful atmosphere we were in. "I didn't say that." Asher snorted, "You didn't have to." I was quiet for a moment, looking out to the beach and resting my cheek on my knee. "It- It's not that I don't like to," I struggled to find the words good enough to explain. "I just think, maybe, I don't know how to anymore." Asher stares at me for a moment, eyes filled with an emotion that I can't put my finger on. I turn to face him properly, almost gasping when he appears much closer than I remembered. Before I can turn the moment into a joke, he speaks. "Well, if you ever want to learn again, I'll always be right here, Willa. I'm always right here." * Willa Montgomery didn't expect to be uprooted for her last summer before college, but two weeks in, here she is: Santa Monica, California. Willa hasn't had the best life as of recent, and with the impending damage of her parents messy divorce getting harder and harder to avoid, her mom decides the best place for her to be is anywhere but home. Enter Sylvia Edwards, Willa's mother's best friend since middle school, and Willa's godmother. Sylvia is more than glad to host Willa for the entire summer, opening up her beautiful home to her immediately. And with that beautiful home comes the beautiful Asher Edwards, and a whole bunch of memories Willa wasn't even aware she had. Living in a house with Asher, the sweetest yet most persistent guy to exist is both heartwarming and dangerous all at once, because soon enough, the barriers Willa spent years building around her fragile heart are coming down- and fast. Willa had never realized how frozen she was until Asher started to melt her ice. With eyes like oceans, a smile like honey and a touch like heaven. cover by @stylesoftimothee

Idea for series of the Avengers from @AaliyahCohen-Stark and @mikammadi. These stories will be the OG 6 Avengers from the movies. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Inessa Katya Alekseyeva's life has been defined by control. Taken into the Red Room as a child, she was shaped into the perfect weapon-deadly, disciplined, unbreakable. When Hydra experiments awakened powers within her, she became even more dangerous, a shadow moving between two worlds. But when SHIELD offered her a chance at redemption, Inessa seized it, finding purpose beyond the blood on her hands. Partnered with Clint Barton, and reunited with her childhood sister, Natasha Romanoff, she steps into a new role: one of the founding Avengers. Through battles that test the limits of her strength and loyalty, Inessa discovers something she never expected-feelings for Clint. Yet it isn't until the devastation of New York, when she believes she's lost him, that the truth of her heart finally strikes. Spanning from the shadows of her Red Room past to the world-altering events of Endgame, Inessa's journey is one of power, sacrifice, and love she never thought she deserved.
