The Gilded Severance
By @john1208
The screaming match over a mislaid prototype was the final straw. For three years, Oshara Jentil played the silent, subservient wife, scrubbing floors and cooking meals for Rellian Gade while he built his tech empire alongside his smug ex-girlfriend, Dessa. But when Rellian demands Oshara apologize on her knees for shrinking a jacket, the shy doormat finally snaps. Leaving her apron on the pristine floor, Oshara returns to the Jentil Consortium, reclaiming her birthright as the nation’s wealthiest heiress. Rellian assumes she’ll come crawling back - until his phantom angel investor abruptly pulls all funding, and he realizes his 'maid' was the billionaire secretly bankrolling his entire life. Desperate, Rellian begs for forgiveness, but Oshara has already hired Kavren Yul, a terrifyingly cold attorney with a talent for corporate slaughter. As Kavren and Oshara slowly grow closer while tearing Rellian’s life apart in court, they uncover a shocking truth: Dessa isn't just a jealous home-wrecker, but the true genius behind the tech Rellian stole. With Rellian groveling at her feet and her ambitious aunt manipulating the board, will Oshara's newfound backbone be enough to secure her empire and her heart?

Sutures and Savage Oaths
By @john1208
Yarina is a quiet, timid trauma nurse keeping her head down in the occupied, militant stronghold of Krazna, desperate to find her missing sister. When she is cornered by Vorzhak - the towering, blood-drenched Warlord of the Groznyr pack - a tense deal is struck. He will grant her access to the military archives if she can save his second-in-command from a botched, agonizing transformation. As Yarina applies her sutures, her touch emits an unrecognized biological frequency that instantly neutralizes the agony of the feral shift. Witnessing this impossible feat, Vorzhak’s feral instincts lock onto her as his fated mate. Suddenly, Yarina's sterile, quiet life is consumed by a terrifying giant who turns into an obsessively gentle, overprotective shadow whenever she is near. As the Groznyr pack prepares for an apocalyptic supernatural war, Yarina struggles with the brutal culture clash, continuing her secret investigation into her sister's disappearance. But with a rogue faction violently hunting human mates, what will happen when Yarina discovers her search for her sister and Vorzhak's hunt for the rogue terrorists are the exact same deadly trail?
