Thrall of the Dark Wood
Young mother Ilse arrived in Forst village seven years ago with an infant in her arms and another little one on the way. Secretive about her previous life, most assumed Ilse to be an unwed harlot, driven from her home by her family’s shame. Ilse is especially tight-lipped about the most pressing question: who the father of her children is.
Ilse bore the burden of their rumors with ease, and for seven years lived in relative peace in a small house just outside of the Dark Wood – a forest that many believed was home to inhuman creatures. None but Ilse had ever dared to live that close, fearing that they would be lured into the Wood, never to return.
When Ilse and her children disappear, seemingly out of thin air, the village assumes the Dark Wood has claimed their lives. What they don’t know is that the father of Ilse’s children, who most assumed to be some nobody from Ilse’s home village, is actually much closer than they thought. He comes from the Dark Wood – and he wants his family back.
Soren & Cyrus
The snow blanketed the streets of New York City. A sliver of golden light danced over the Manhattan skyline, and the cool crisp air nipped away at all the men and women, in slim fitting uniforms and suits, on their way to their morning jobs.
A bus was rolling around, taking a turn past 75th 9th Avenue. Chelsea market was opening its doors, and the smell of meat and steam came pouring out. The bus, its color dull from the sun, its yellow paint peeling away, in need of a fresh coat, stopped in front of the market.
Children's faces loomed over their seats and stared at the people down below, and amongst the crowd, a dark skinned boy with the most radiating blue eyes looked up, and held contact with another boy in the bus, with skin a luxurious pale caramel, a contrast to his dark inky black eyes, with the slightest pigment of purple.
It was for a mere three seconds, but that was all it took, for them to fall in love.
As the bus rode off, the sounds of children playing and looking around at the colossal buildings and the bustling and vibrant scenery, one could only think, when they would meet again.

The Little Thief || MxM || Omegaverse
Maybe finding a true mate isn’t always love at first sight.
*****
An omega thief gets thrown out of his clan of criminals after he refuses to save his leader from a debt he can’t pay. Joined by his best friend, these two homeless omegas are trying to stay safe in a dangerous city where the army fights ruthless criminals who hate omegas, but maybe the best way to survive is to find any decent alphas to take care of them, even if they’re not true mates.
And the best place to find good alphas is the local mafia. But stepping into the mafia life comes with its own dangers, and their former clan certainly hates seeing them climbing up the lawless social ladder when they were supposed to fail as outcasts, so their hardships are far from over.
At least there’s a young alpha, not the prince charming our little thief thought he’d find, but he’s kind of cute, and has kind eyes, so even though this one isn’t his true mate, he decides to give him a chance.
But maybe it doesn’t always have to be about love at first sight. Maybe love can bloom where you least expect it – if you give it an opportunity to grow.
