Hale Saxon

In the cold halls of Hale Dominion—where scent is currency and power is classified—Alpha Riven Hale reigns untouchable. Sharp, composed, and bred for dominance, he has everything under control... until Ezren Vale arrives. An unregistered Omega with no lineage, no bond history, and no scent trail to trace. He’s beautiful, distant, and completely wrong. Because when Ezren walks in, Riven’s perfect world begins to unravel. Beneath the surface, Hale’s scent monitors begin to spike. The data says danger. The past whispers warnings. And somewhere deep in the archives, a long-buried trauma stirs—a forgotten bond, a dead Omega, and a truth someone paid to erase. But Ezren isn’t just a threat. He’s the trigger. And once he kisses Riven, it’s already too late. Now tangled in a game of dominance, memory, and control, Riven must decide what’s more dangerous: the truth they buried, or the Omega who’s slowly becoming impossible to resist.

Because of a ridiculous childhood marriage, she married him. Before marriage, the two agreed on three rules: marry without love, affectionate in public, uninterfering in private. Yet unexpectedly, he sneaked into her room the next day. He shamelessly violated the agreement! She was angry, "Matthew Saxon, you are unreliable; I want a divorce!" He smirked, "Want a divorce? First, give me a little bun." Everyone knows the young master of the Saxon Family is nonchalant and heartless, but he pampers her to the extreme. "Young Master, Young Madam said the scenery at the university opposite is nice." "Buy it." "The view from the rooftop of the building next door is great." "Buy it." "The new director at Saxon Clan is also quite handsome." "...Fire him immediately!"

Their bodies ache for connection… and perhaps, their hearts do too. A slow-burning love story of healing, instinct, and the undeniable pull of soulmates.

Eight years later, she’s living a nightmare, but still refuses to see it. Despite being constantly mistreated by her in-laws and repeatedly cheated on by her husband, Ayla forgives him, believing it’s simply in a ‘man’s nature.’ Even when Silas infects her with an STD that leaves her infertile, she still forgives him. She sacrifices a high-paying job to ease his insecurities, cooks, cleans, and contributes to household expenses… all while enduring daily humiliation. One night, Silas brings home his pregnant mistress, Elena Simmons along with a major business partner and serves Ayla divorce papers like she’s yesterday’s trash.

As she falls, she locks eyes with Elena’s cold, smiling face. Tears slide down her cheeks and she unwillingly embraces death, full of regret. As her skull hits the pavement, the last flickers of life flashes before her eyes. And with searing clarity, she realizes: she was never the problem. If only she could turn back time… she would do everything differently. But then… Ayla Caddel wakes up the next morning, not in a hospital, but seven years before her death. This time, she plans to burn her fairy tale to the ground, starting with divorcing her ‘perfect’ husband. She vows never to get entangled with a man until a certain man suddenly clings to her hips, refusing to leave. . . . Ezra Hale, the man Silas relied on for business, was never interested in Silas. He was rather drawn to Ayla, but never approached her and patiently waited for the scales to fall off her eyes. That was until he hears of her sudden death while driving to work. Heartbroken and guilt-ridden, he crashes into a truck and dies instantly. Only to open his eyes seven years earlier. On this day back then, Ayla had brought Silas lunch at work, only to be embarrassed and shouted at to leave. But this time, as Ezra walks by… he doesn’t care that his entire staff is watching and directly pulls the woman he never thought he’d see again into his arms.

After losing her sister, Elena Moore is left hollow—adrift in a world that no longer feels familiar. Desperate for space to breathe, she leaves behind the noise of the city and moves to a small coastal town where the ocean is wide, the streets are quiet, and no one knows her name. Nathan Hale has lived in that same town for years, quietly tucked away in a weathered house on the cliff’s edge. Once a renowned author, he’s now a recluse—his pen abandoned, his world closed off after a heartbreak he never speaks of. When Elena and Nathan cross paths, it’s not instant or electric. It’s slow—deliberate. A glance, a pause, a word. Their connection grows not from sparks but from shared silences, aching memories, and the quiet recognition of someone who understands what it means to lose everything. As seasons shift and their walls begin to crumble, both must choose: retreat to the comfort of solitude, or take the risk of loving again—imperfect, fragile, and real. Beneath the Blue is a tender, deeply felt story about grief, healing, and the unexpected love that finds you when you stop looking and start feeling again.

She walked away from the world of privilege. He rules it from the shadows. Their collision was inevitable.

Every student has a blessing, a unique power that shapes how they live, train, and survive. At Northridge Low-Risk Academy, most students are here for structure, safety, and a quiet path toward control. Ivy Hale isn't exactly average. Her blessing, Mirror Pain, can reflect any attack used against her. It’s powerful, defensive, and draining in ways most people don’t understand. But Ivy keeps her head down, sticks to routine, and lets others take the spotlight. That routine is broken when a high-risk blessing school shuts down. A few students from the now-defunct program are reassigned to Northridge. Most arrive with noise, loud personalities, strange habits, lingering tension. But one doesn’t. He slips past attendance lists, skips class, avoids conversation, and drifts just far enough to not be noticed. Ivy wouldn’t have seen him either if not for a pair of stray cats and a quiet moment outside school grounds. It starts there, with a cat, a conversation, and the smallest shift in Ivy’s life. But small shifts don’t stay small for long. Not in a world where danger never really disappears. It just changes schools. (Set in the same universe as Death Inc., but fully standalone.
