Summary
He was wearing scrubs, just like you, but yours had paw prints on them and his didn’t. “Hi?” his mouth had quirked upwards at your confused response. He made himself comfortable as the gears of your mind turned, trying to figure out if you knew this guy and had been rude for the past three Tuesdays. He settled his elbows on the table before grabbing the menu from behind the napkin holder.
“What do you usually get here?” He’d asked, as though the two of you were old friends.
It’d shocked you enough that you sat up, spine touching the seatback for the first time since you’d sat down ten minutes ago, “Do we know each other?”
He’d glanced up from the menu, once again meeting your eyes, “No.” Back down to scan the menu, and then, in a softer voice, “But you have dried blood on your face,” your eyes widen at his words, “and I think it’s scaring a lot of the staff.”

Or a slow burn between Dr. Jack Abbot and the reader, who works as a veterinary technician down the street from PTMC.

Summary
Night shifts in the Pitt had a way of stripping someone down to their core. It tested your patience, your skill—when the witching hour hits and you're facing MVCs and GSWs while exhaustion weighs down on your bones, finding the drive to keep pushing through sometimes feels utterly impossible.
Throw in fourth-year residency, egotistical residents, and the ever-blurring line of personal and professional between a certain night shift attending, and surviving the shift stops being the most difficult part of your job.
or: jack abbot loses a bet and it starts something neither of you meant to begin.

Summary
[A story that is the perfect sweet spot between an irreverent, darkly comic POV and quiet alien ritual soul bond story.]
[Updates Thursdays Bi-weekly]
Max expected a mundane animal behavior consult when she was called down to a research station in butt-fuck-nowhere-Texas — maybe a rogue military mutt, tops. What she got was a seven and a half foot tall beast of alien muscle radiating the energy of someone who's fought gods — and possibly won.
As the only person within five miles with common sense, Max is shoved into the unlikely role of accidental co-conspirator. When her new 'assignment' busts out, he brings Max along for the ride — whether she likes it or not.
What follows isn't just a galactic fuck-up. Mutual apprehension spirals into uneasy trust, a cultural collision, and a growing connection that neither of them knows what to do with—or wants to admit. They both realize quickly that they've bitten off more than they can chew: Max, with a creeping suspicion that she might be the biggest pervert ever; and her companion–kidnapper, learning the hard way that humans are, hands down, the most annoying creatures in the galaxy.
Turns out, the scariest part of first contact is catching feelings.

Summary
For the anon who asked for Feysand vampire smut and got way more than they bargained for.
-
There were three rules that must be followed in the home of Viscount Rhysand.
One: All staff were forbidden from looking at his lordship directly.
Two: All windows were to stay nailed shut, and all drapes pulled over them lest any light creep through the boards.
And the third and strangest rule of the castle: All female staff were forbidden from leaving their quarters during their monthly bleed.Bookmarked by DianeBarnes
