    Summary

    Alphas are considered brutes that need to be tamed. They are separated from the real world, living in training centers until they learn how to be useful and chosen by a beta or omega.

    Eighteen year old Shane recently lost both of his parents, leaving him without a pack. He is lost and hurting, and his health is declining rapidly from years of suppressants and losing his pack. He is told he needs an alpha to balance out his hormones, reduce stress, and help him get through his irregular and painful heats. He gets given multiple options, but he can’t help but be drawn to a particular Russian alpha.

    Summary

    The mountains were supposed to be the end.

    After fleeing the Alpha responsible for burning his village to the ground, Shane expects winter to claim him long before anyone else does. Instead, he wakes beside a fire in the cabin of a gruff, solitary Alpha who insists he's only keeping Shane alive because letting him freeze would be inconvenient.

    Neither of them believes that's the whole truth.

    As winter settles over the mountains, two strangers, each haunted by the people who shaped them, begin the slow, uneven work of learning what safety feels like. One meal, one argument, and one quiet act of kindness at a time.

    Summary

    “I wish you were here,” said Jake quietly, like he was confessing something dirty and wrong. “I think I miss you.”

    “Well, I know I miss you,” Bradley replied, easy as anything. “And I wish I was, too, so you can mutter sarcastic commentary in my ear and I can goad you into stupid shit in front of famous people.”

    A laugh burst its way out of Jake’s lungs. “That’d be nice. I really do wanna come to your games, you know. Swear.”

    “You think I don’t know that? Come to the ones you can, serenade me when you can’t, and enjoy doing what you do best, alright?”

    “Which is?”

    “Putting on the best show on the planet, charming the pants off everyone around you, and looking hot as hell the entire time,” Bradley answered promptly.

    “Rude. I thought it was blowjobs.”

    Summary

    "I– I don't know. Sorry, please I just… I got lost, and then I fell and… ‘M sorry about the trespassing, but even if I knew how to get back I don’t think I could walk that far."

    Jake could only pray that he made a pathetic enough picture here, shivering in the man's doorway, that he wouldn't be kicked back out into the night to fend for himself amongst the wolves.

    In which Maverick and Ice are a pair of supernatural creatures living in a big, scary castle in the woods, and Jake is the dumb blonde who shows up at their door in the middle of a storm.
