Remini
Life is already hard enough for a classic 17-year-old teenager, but when you add werewolves, unrealistic expectations, pressure, constant disappointment and blatant discrimination, it only worsens.
As an omega, Remini's life goal is all set: before he's even twenty he will find a pretty higher rank, mate with him, have his babies and raise them.
Then he will be happy. At least, that's what everyone tells him.
But to him, it does sound very far from his happiness.
Even though, Remini tries to make his life alright by relying on his family's and friends' support and love, but for how long can it last?
Follow Remini, a cheerful but mouthy omega in his journey!
Rifter's Covenant
When the first rifts appeared twenty years ago, life changed drastically for humanity. Fierce battles for survival with foreign beasts became part of everyday life. The people who survived, their first unwilling venture into a rift, came known as “rifters”. Since then, it’s been their job to protect civilians from the rift’s dangers - if they want it or not.
As Duncan and his friends enter another rift as planned, they expected nothing more than a fierce fight to destroy the rift's connector, like many times before. But what lurked in this rift was too much for their group to take. With an enemy that they cannot overcome and all their lives on the line, Duncan receives an offer he cannot refuse. Little did he knew how this covenant would flip his life around. When he realizes what this deal really entails, he starts to wonder if dying would have been the better choice instead.

Metamorphosis
(Extra) Ordinary
Ricki and Ezra have been friends forever. But things are changing. His world is shifting.
17-year-old Ricki has a lot of things:
- A great best friend
- Perfect pitch (and stage fright!)
- Less than a year left of high school
- An unnecessary amount of large hoodies
- Strange fears
- An average life
Things are the same day after day for Ricki. That isn't a problem for him, not really. It's not like Ricki likes change anyway. He doesn't mind being ordinary.
But other things seem to be amiss. Ricki's parents are disagreeing more often. Ezra is becoming withdrawn and distant. After an encounter with a mysterious hero, supernatural things that he can't comprehend haunt him day after day.
What's Ezra up to? What's happening?
Is Ricki as ordinary as he thinks?
Unbuttoned
Twenty-eight-year-old Wren has been sheltered his whole life. He was homeschooled, and only allowed to socialize with similarly repressed omegas who at the very least, had watched porn by their age. Wren, not so much. Once he finished school and went on into adulthood, you’d think that Wren would have gone crazy trying to experience all the things he’d been denied as a teenager, right? Far from it. Though Wren had moved to a new city for his job and gained new friends who had certainly dabbled in hedonism, Wren had little inclination to join them.
Wren was content with celibacy. He was content with working nine to five, eating lunch with his coworkers, and then going home at the end of the day to binge watch tv shows and try out the new recipes he found online. His life was a boat on still waters, slowly drifting to an expected destination. Steady. Unchanging.
There’s a storm, though, hanging on the fringes of Wren’s life by the name of Vincent. He’s a complete nuisance, with his ridiculous V-neck shirts that show way too much skin, his captivatingly evil grin, and his scent like a minty forest breeze. Wren doesn’t like him at all, and he’s really annoyed that Vincent is apparently the only taxi driver available in the whole city after seven p.m.
And if the fact that the scent of Vincent’s oncoming rut triggered Wren’s heat meant anything significant, like their compatibility, Wren was going to happily ignore it. And if, right before Wren’s next heat, he stole Vincent’s scarf from the backseat of the taxi, then Wren was going to blame it all on the omega heat-brain instincts.
Except, unbeknownst to Wren, there was apparently a ‘stealing an alpha’s clothes to sex’ pipeline that he wasn’t aware of.
Before long, Wren is sucked up into the whirlpool known as Vincent, desperately trying to claw his way out before he drowns. But as it turns out, the whirlpool is just as desperate to drag him down as Wren is to escape.
A Drink Before Battle (M/M) (✔)
General Sevei is of the firm opinion that Nobles are shady and Alchemists even shadier. Noble Alchemists are the absolute worst. He is not looking forward to partnering with one to guard the border.
Upon their introduction, though, it would seem they have already met... under very intimate circumstances.
Oh...,****...

This is set in the same world as my novel "Salvage", but they are completely independent stories. You don't have to read one to read the other. (This one is back in medieval times, about 400 years prior to Salvage.)
Just like in Salvage, here you can expect some humor and some angst (and some occasional smut) and a bunch of hot messes just doing their best. Despite the seemingly salacious premise, this is a love story at its heart, as well as a story of friendship and found family.

The Wintering Flame
For thousands of years, wars and plagues destroyed the continent of Damocles as fae went against fae, all vying for power and dominance of the lands. It was during the last Great War that a Wytch rose up and cursed the world in hopes to stop the fighting; not a single fae would be born until the fighting ended. One fae decided to take it upon himself to search for the maker of the curse and end it; to bring peace and life to the lands he loved so much. When he found the Wytch who cursed the world, he was made to make an offer before such a feat of undoing could be done. She would bless the world with the ability to repopulate but he would forever be tied to her. He would be the first, an Omega she called him, and through his devotion, the world would once more begin to heal.
But with the rise of Alphas and Omegas, a deadly consequence was enacted. The Omega Trade. Hidden in the shadows and known only to those with power and influence, Omegas are sold like possessions to those with money, given lives of slavery. When it was announced that the Prince of the Autumn Kingdom was born an Omega, it didn't take long before the only heir was kidnapped and said to be sold into the Omega Trade. Once more, blame was thrown around, fingers pointed and a war was toeing the line of all Kingdoms.
Phoenix knew this story from the moment he had opened his eyes. Living in the Spring Kingdom his entire life, all the slaves knew the consequences of their gender. He had been born into slavery to a male Omega he hardly remembered. It's his eyes, however, that has people whispering, that has trained him to keep his head down to keep from anyone seeing. It's easy pretending to not exist within the Spring Court, but when an emissary from the Winter Court arrives one afternoon, Phoenix cannot understand the pull to look up at the white haired male. Little did Phoenix know, this was the beginning of the rest of his life.
