The Evil God
Rook is the god of evil, darkness, and death. His existence is a curse, his very presence a poison. His love is toxic, and all who make the mistake of loving him meet unfortunate ends, typically by his own hand.
When someone begins targeting Rook by poisoning the main river of the god realm, Rook is annoyed, but not surprised. The list of people who hate him is long, and any one of them could have a grudge.
Unfortunately, the incident is large enough to catch the attention of the king of the realm. Idris, god of light and creation. Rook isn't particularly fond of Idris, for several reasons, and Idris doesn't hold any affection for him either.
So why, just why, has Idris, ruler of the gods, brought Rook, scum of the earth, to his own personal palace for "protection"?

A Pirate's Plaything
I was hiding as cargo on the ship Mandrake.
When it was pirated, I did some quick-thinking and pretended to be a cabin boy. But he scented me at the get. And the moment he had me alone he stripped me down to prove what he already knew.
I was all woman.
He was the Captain of the Whirlwind and he intended to possess all spoils from the Mandrake. Including me.
But I'm not so easily bullied into becoming a lover.
Not even by a fierce pirate captain.
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 Ravening
I had no idea why the panicked witches marked me at first.
But it didn't take me long to realize I'd been sacrificed to assuage the hunger of an insatiable incubus. A man sentenced to haunt the world as a demon with a ravening hunger for human women.
He won't leave me alone.
How can I escape someone whom I can't even see, until he's inside me? I can't touch, until he's already feeling me. No one can see him but me.
I can't make him stop. And the longer this goes on the less sure I am that I want it to.
Nonconforming
I never wanted to be the Luna or the Alpha’s boyfriend.
I never even wanted to be an omega...
Not that I’ve ever had the courage to say otherwise.
When I turn sixteen in one week, everyone fully expects me to mate with my long-term boyfriend, David, and start a family as soon as possible. But what if David isn’t my soulmate? Or... what if... I don’t want him to be, but he is anyways? Don’t I get a choice in any of this? Apparently not, since the one person I would choose is strictly off-limits and not a werewolf at all!
But just before my sixteenth birthday, my world is flipped upside down. My crush won’t talk to me, my parents insist I learn how to be a proper omega, and a turf war with the local witches’ coven is brewing. But, even if the Moon Goddess and Mother Earth are against me, I’m determined to do whatever it takes to find my own path to happiness.

Shaded Soldiers || MxM || Omegaverse
Riley Steele, a 26 year old omega, is ready to do whatever it takes to get accepted into a special unit in the army full of alphas, and the people standing in his way are not shy to take advantage of that. With no choice but to accept the abuse, Riley's wish comes true, and he is finally allowed to join Tactical Team 07 with a promise his life will always be hell, and the people he should be most afraid of are not the domestic terrorists trying to bring back the good old ages when omegas had less rights than tablespoons. No...
It's his allies he needs to be afraid of.
But maybe this team, TT-07, is different. Maybe these alphas don't mind fighting with an omega. Maybe they don't see him as fair game, a toy to use. Maybe his new partner, a grumpy older alpha, Reid Bishop, doesn't actually hate his guts like it first seems.
Maybe he has found his family in this team. Maybe they see him as their brother, as equal.
But it is certain there are people who hate to see a strong, skilled omega in their precious elite alpha army, and will do whatever it takes to ruin him and break his spirit.

The Match Breaker
Carmen is a professional asshole. That’s not an exaggeration, that’s literally his job. In a society where engagements are almost impossible to break, his role as the ‘love rival’ is integral to the happiness of youths across the country of Pansolum.
When offered the opportunity to break the engagement of one of the princesses of Pansolum, Carmen takes it, the lure of the payout too strong to ignore, despite the danger.
Everything is going well until the princess's older brother, the crown prince, shows up to chaperone and usher away any unsavory characters.
Carmen, as the unsavory character in question, very professionally continues doing his job despite the added danger and by the end, successfully breaks yet another engagement - and a royal engagement at that!
Congratulating himself on another job well done, eyes glimmering with the promise of the wealth he's about to gain, Carmen flees before the crown prince can demand he become the princess's new fiancé.
The next day, while waiting for the princess's servant to deposit his fee, he suddenly feels an odd prick in his neck, and then everything goes fuzzy.
In his last moments of consciousness, Carmen sees the crown prince coming out of the dark woods and squatting next to him, insisting that Carmen fulfill his promises to the princess.
And now the so-called ‘match breaker’ of Pansolum finds himself in the peculiar position of requiring his own services.
