Summary
Sukuna doesn’t have many memories of the outside world, not that he got to form very many. Honestly, he doesn’t like to think too much on it; it’s not worth the trouble. He knows enough to know he’s not where he should be and enough to be mad about it - fucking livid about it, actually.
--
When he was a child, tiger-hybrid Sukuna and his family were captured and trafficked, trapped in an illegal hybrid zoo. Many years later, Sukuna is told his parents are dead, and a toddler he's never met is thrown into his enclosure. When the tiger brothers Sukuna and Yuji are miraculously rescued, with no family and nowhere to go, they are placed at Shadow Garden Rehabilitation Center and Refuge for hybrids.
Sukuna must navigate the unfamiliar normalcy of greater society and get back on his feet. At stake is the custody of his brother Yuji, the only one in the world on his side. Or so he thinks...

Summary
Kang Taehoo was a sergeant in the Special Forces of the South Korean military. Imposing, reserved, and deadly—the kind of alpha no one dared to question. Everyone respected him, but no one truly knew him beyond what was strictly professional.
And for good reason. Because Kang Taehoo didn’t exist.
It was merely the name Kim Taehyung had taken on years ago, when the only way to survive was to erase his past, his identity, and even his biological designation. He now lived as an alpha, but in truth, he was an omega who couldn’t afford to be discovered.
Jeon Jungkook, a military trauma surgeon newly assigned to the squad, never expected to fall for another alpha—much less for his superior, a man who seemed carved from steel and forged in silence.
But there was something about him that pulled Jungkook in, and he was determined to win him over... even if that meant courting an alpha who wasn’t who he claimed to be.

Summary
"I wish I had the choice..." He is torn between predator and prey -- between the soldier the Fleet created in him and the pathetic mess of a man she turns him into with just a look.
Colonel Caleb is ordered to protect and guard a very valuable asset, her, a woman who carries an Aether Core in her chest, powerful enough to launch a thousand fleet ships. His mission was meant to be simple-- to keep her locked away until she is useful.
But when his commanders demand more than Caleb had bargained for, he must make a choice he never had before: obey and submit, or keep her safe.

Summary
In the bustling city of Macau, a legendary gang of criminals known as the Wolves move with precision, their heists flawless and their bonds unbreakable—until the line between loyalty and betrayal begins to blur. Jun, the bright and cunning heart of the Wolves, finds himself drawn to Wonwoo, a relentless police strategist whose calm exterior hides a sharp mind and a growing concern for the young thief.
As coded messages and secret meetings bridge the gap between law and crime, the Wolves face their most daring mission yet: infiltrating the police headquarters itself. With old loyalties tested, dangerous plans unfolding, and a manipulative figure threatening to reclaim control, every choice could mean freedom—or ruin.
In a world where trust is fragile, and love is a risk, can hearts once forged in shadows find a way to echo in the light?

Summary
Evan Buckley was intimately familiar with death. It hung in the air around him, lived under his skin.
It was the reason he'd been born in the first place.
Maybe it had seemed like some awful cosmic joke to his parents when they'd found out the source of his magic. It could have been anything.
It just had to be death.Eddie Diaz doesn't know how to be a werewolf.
Which is unfortunate, given he's been one all his life. He brought his son to LA to get away from it all, but he couldn't run from what he was.Or:
Death Mage Buck and Werewolf Eddie find one another at the 118. -

Summary
"So because I'm not hideous, and you could beat me up, you decided this was a good idea."
"I didn't say it was a good idea," says Chuuya. His eyes dig deep. "I'm still working on figuring that out."
Something silent and dangerous and intimate settles between them. Coffee beans and soft jazz swirl in Dazai's mind, tantalizing like batting eyelashes or butterfly wings. The blue of Chuuya's eyes cut through the brown of his gilet, the auburn of his hair, the deep maroon of the café's wall behind him. It's like staring directly into the moon; painless at first, then scorching when you least expect it to.
Only once Chuuya's cup is emptied does he dare to say out loud what he's been thinking all along.
"I asked you out because I believe we might be soulmates."
Kicked out of his house and left stranded on his best friend's couch for the foreseeable future, Dazai is entirely unprepared to deal with the whirlwind that is Nakahara Chuuya. One crashed wedding, wrecked criminal organisations and an awkward father-son "bond" later, Dazai is left with having to contend with the parts of himself he'd tried to forget and the most infuriating soulmate the world's ever seen.

Summary
Basketball was in her blood, but LaMelo Ball made her want to set the whole damn court on fire.
Theresa Young doesn't play games. She runs things quietly from the sidelines, calling shots behind the camera while the league watches her brother light up the court. Her situationship with Jalen Johnson? Chill. Uncomplicated. Safe.
But when Charlotte's finest shows up with that cocky grin and too much swagger for one man, everything changes.
LaMelo Ball is all attitude and bad timing. He gets under her skin-then under her guard. What starts as petty jabs and passive glances turns into something hotter, heavier, harder to ignore.
Now Jalen's noticing. LaMelo's circling. And Theresa's stuck between the boy who never claimed her and the one who might just ruin her carefully built peace.
The pressure's building. The season's heating up. And some fouls don't get called until it's too late.
