    Summary

    After surviving the horrors of a black-ops psychological program and fighting the world together at a military hospital, Tier-One operator Cal Isaac and FBI Agent Emily Byrne are finally trying to reclaim a normal life. Hidden away in a quiet sanctuary, they begin the fragile process of healing and the delicate work of reconnecting with their family, desperate to leave the violence of their past behind.

    But their hard-won peace is shattered in a split second by a catastrophic event. In the chaotic aftermath, damning physical evidence points to an unthinkable betrayal, while a devastating memory blackout leaves the absolute truth buried in the dark.

    As the FBI closes in, the situation demands a terrifying surrender: everyone must put their blind faith in each other. With deeply held beliefs pushed to the breaking point, the couple and their allies face the ultimate test of loyalty. This is a gripping psychological thriller that explores the heavy toll of trauma and asks a haunting question: how do you prove you aren't a monster when you can no longer trust your own mind—and who else will be brave enough to believe you?

    Summary

    The Judicature is organized crime on steroids. Well—not steroids. Bitter. A drug so powerful it requires a daily dose just to keep your brain from melting out of your skull. One pill. Perfect control.

    Allie might be addicted, but she's still trying to fight.

    Roman craves control more than Bitter—and Allie might be the challenge he’s been waiting for. He'll learn her secrets and bring her to heel—or break her into something he likes better.

    Summary

    Content Warning:
    This story contains themes of stalking, non-consensual observation, possessive behavior, power imbalance, manipulation, and violence. Reader discretion is advised.

    He first notices the feeling from the quietest places—
    his bedroom, the café, the spaces that were never meant to be shared.
    Not fear. Not danger.
    Just… the sense that something exists just beyond the glass.
    Watching.
    It starts small—lingering moments, shadows that don’t quite belong, a presence he can never quite catch.
    But the more he tries to ignore it, the more precise it becomes.
    Someone knows him.
    His routine. His art. The way he smiles at strangers behind the café counter.
    And somewhere, always just out of sight…
    someone is watching from behind his window.
    Because this isn’t coincidence.
    It isn’t harmless.
    And by the time he realizes the truth—
    he’s already been seen.

    Summary

    Negan’s seen desperation. He’s seen defiance. He’s seen people try to bargain their way out of his rules.
    He’s never seen anyone offer up the thing they love most. He’s definitely never seen this kind of offering.
    Now the line between leverage and obsession starts to blur—
    and nobody walks away untouched.

    Author’s Note: This is pre-Rick Grimes. Back when the Sanctuary was 'thriving', the rules were ironclad, and Negan’s tribute system wasn’t a suggestion… it was law.

    Summary

    There’s a little voice in the back of Eddie’s mind, the one that always chides him, that says this is a stupid idea. He’s just prolonging the inevitable. Eventually, they’ll end up in New York and he’ll drop Richie off at the airport so he can go back to LA and Eddie will have to walk back into that house and return to the life he had before he remembered.

    “What’d you say, Eds?” Richie asks. He leans across the plastic table with his voice pitched low like he’s whispering a secret.

    Eddie wipes his hands on a spare napkin. They’re sticky and he should wash them before they go.

    “Okay,” he says. Just saying it out loud makes his chest feel lighter. He nods slowly, a smile breaching his face. “Yeah, okay. Let’s do it.”
    -
    After defeating Pennywise, the Losers are ready to go back home, except for Eddie and Richie. They decide to take the long way back: a mini road trip from Derry to New York City with some life changing stops along the way.

    Bound by treaty, Caleb is placed under the authority of Essek Thelyss—not as a prisoner, but not as anything resembling free. Political asset. Arcane liability. Weapon, repurposed.

    Husband.

    Essek is meant to control him.

    The problem is, Caleb only knows how to follow orders—and Essek refuses to give them.

    Summary

    Huan Hua Palace's Head Disciple was a catch!

    Content with her station and role as her Shifu's proxy and sword, alpha Su Xiyan avoided the topic of marriage. Unfortunately, Huan Hua Palace couldn't afford to offend the Emperor, and so she must be wed to the Emperor's omega granddaughter - much to her protective Shifu's growing distress. After all, in his opinion, nothing good was going to come out of having a disobedient omega around.

     

    Shen Yuan was an unconventional princess. She didn't know why her new Sect Leader (father-in-law?) was so weird or why her (unfairly, intimidatingly hot) husband-to-be couldn't just treat her like another cultivator to make this easier on the both of them. But damn if she didn't make the most out of living at Huan Hua Palace with its renowned collection of obscure treasures and... demon associates? Affiliated demonic cultivators? Dear Su Xiyan, esteemed husband - wasn't this supposed to be a Righteous Sect!?

    But the deeper they go, the more the lines begin to blur.

    Summary

    Having opened the portal, Thirteen balances her want to be back with Henry with her fear of the Mind Flayer, her love of her friends with her beliefs that they see her as a burden, and the guilt she feels at everything she's done, both the stuff she's done by choice and the stuff forced upon her.

    * * *

    Takes place a few months before the canonical season 3, in the spring of 1985.

    * * *

    I highly highly highly suggest reading the previous parts, or none of this will make sense. However, if you like Henry as well as deeply unhealthy (platonic) relationships, then I think you'll have fun.
