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
Hey guys, as a continuation of OG series, I'm back with another TigerLynx fic, and this time it is a story on power imbalances, the weight of ‘protection,’ and what happens when the person who saved you becomes the person you need to escape from. Bring tissues, trust me. I think this was my shortest summary ever. Okay, enough talking; see you in there.

Summary
“What…what the fuck?!” said Ilya out loud. His voice sounded all wrong. Despite the fact that he made no attempt to speak it, the words came out in English.
He ran into the bathroom and turned on the light.
Shane Hollander’s pretty brown eyes set in his handsome face stared back at him in shock and bewilderment. He double-checked his surroundings, but he was still very much in his Moscow apartment.
---
While settling his father's affairs, Ilya discovers a magical ring that allows him to take on anyone else's appearance. He uses the ring to become Shane, and to make Shane look like him. They've also gained each others' language abilities, and perhaps a few other quirks, as well.Ilya is using the shapeshifting powers of the ring to avoid dealing with his father's death. He doesn't want to be himself for now, and the ring provides a delicious escape. It's Shane's body for now, but the ring has greater potential for fun - if they're creative.
---
This will explore human shapeshifting only.

Summary
"Theo had a quite deliberate view of goodness. None of it ever fit him, no matter how much Liam tried to convince him otherwise. He was way too rotten to go back and the universe had again and again shown him that."
***
Years before, an experiment in the Dread Doctors' lab changed Theo's life in ways before unimaginable. Through the following years, he deals with the hurt, grief, and anger resulting from their actions all alone. That's until a certain beta frees him from hell and Theo finds his burden to be somehow split as well as multiplied the longer he stays besides Liam.
One day, Derek and Braeden raid a filling facility and what they find there changes everything Theo has managed to built in the aftermath of it all.
