    Summary

    Far from the front lines of a war between humanity and an overwhelmingly advanced yet ostensibly benevolent alien species, a depressed abuse victim dares to hope for more than the cruel and meaningless life that she was dealt. Meanwhile, an introverted alien questions if her terrifying appearance and sadistic urges render her unfit to ever keep a human pet of her own. When the two finally meet, will Alice make a decision she can't take back?

    A dark romance set in the Human Domestication Guide universe. Equal parts wholesome and toxic, this story is above all else a character study about two damaged souls navigating themes of trauma, power inequality, self-actualization, and the true value of autonomy (or lack thereof).

    Summary

    During the First World War in 1916, in a red cross hospital, two people who once shared the same classroom met again. Not as children, not as carefree students, or teenagers, but as grown adults whose hands and souls are hardened by war — a soldier and a nurse. Not a great romance that has a twist and perfect endings, but instead a simple, quiet love story between two souls.

    Summary

    Fíli/Original Female Character | Slow Burn | High Spice | Canon Divergence | Magic | Soft Angst | Battle Couple | Druid Aesthetic
    She woke in roots older than time, with no memory of who she had once been — only that the forest whispered her name.
    Twelve years later, Eryn Wyrdwood lives quietly on the edge of the wilds, healing the land and those who come seeking her strange, moss-scented magic. But when a Company of dwarves arrives at her door, led by an old wizard and burdened with a king’s pride, Eryn finds herself drawn into a journey far bigger — and older — than she ever expected.
    She is the Wild, forgotten but not gone.
    He is the Heir, bound in gold and duty.
    And somewhere between firelight glances, ancient battles, and the long echo of dragon wings, they find something terrifyingly gentle — and fiercely, unshakably theirs.

    Summary

    The Doctors had no interest in soulmates, they were a weakness, a potential for failure. Theo couldn’t afford to be a failure, so he put it out of his mind completely. He just forgot to start thinking about it again after they were gone, is all. He would’ve noticed if he’d been paying attention, but he wasn’t.

    or: Your classic soulmates feel each other’s pain and their injuries show up on each other’s skin. Except they’re werewolves with advanced healing and have a lot bigger things to worry about than soulmates, like, y’know the end of their entire species.

    Summary

    Before the massacre, before the betrayal, there was a girl with crimson eyes and a boy who didn’t believe in second chances.

    Now the Uchiha are gone, and Itachi stands accused of wiping out his clan—with his sister, Sayuri, at his side. Kakashi is left to guide the last surviving Uchiha, all while trying to forget the one who slipped away with a scar he won’t name.

    But whispers of Akatsuki stir across the continent. And in the shadows, truths long buried are beginning to claw their way back to the surface.

    Not everything that’s lost stays gone.
    And not every ghost is content to remain one.

    Summary

    Charlie Morningstar left her home to follow her dream to open a new establishment where sinners could be redeemed, the Happy Hotel.

    And yet, not even she knew that sometimes chasing a rainbow is like throwing a rock in a pond: it causes ripples enough to cause a domino effect through all nine rings of Hell, disturbing the fragile peace that came with the realm of darkness. Even with her good intentions, she’s unknowingly dragging all known realms into the grim unknown, for she is quickly lured into an age-old war with each soul she tries to save.

    As Hotel continues to exist, all eyes are looking at her now, even those who are beyond everything that exists... not all of them will follow her pipe dream. If anything, they are more than ready to destroy it as she finds herself learning about her true purpose. Will Charlie succeed, becoming as Lucifera II Morningstar: The Savior of the Damned... or end up becoming an instrument of destruction for an inevitable future?

    Until then... both the Devil and the Root of All Evil shall await their White Rider's destiny...

    Summary

    The fact that six mercenaries and a weasel have stowed away on the highest-security vessel in the Dynasty’s fleet is, technically, a serious problem that bodes poorly for the rest of their journey. But Essek is delighted. He’d been dreading a long and tense voyage to Mutalos, without any company except for a skeleton crew comprised mostly of military personnel, the awkward spare scourger, and his—

    It feels strange, to think of Becke as his wife. Even calling her his enemy feels too intimate.

    (In which Essek agrees to a political marriage to ensure intergalactic peace and keep himself alive, only to discover that his wife has married him for exactly the opposite reason.)

    Summary

    Imogen left home looking for answers, but something else found her instead.

    Buried in the bowels of a government facility with a set of other strange prisoners, it quickly becomes clear that there's no getting answers, much less getting out, without playing along with the tests, training, and inhumane treatment she's subjected too.

    But how far is Imogen willing to give herself over to a programme that promises to reshape her entirely? And what will she have to do to her fellow inmates in order to find freedom, and the truth that she's been searching for?
