Little Mate

Elena M. Reyes

**_There’s no one above a KING... And yet, I’m restless._** I’m an uncontrollable beast that throbs in time with the heartbeat lulling me closer while a sweet, feminine scent overtakes my senses. I’ve never felt this before—a hunger so frenzied that I’m lost to its call. This siren’s song is solely meant for me, and I give in without pause or question. Because I know and accept. A single drop of blood running through her veins is worth more than every soul walking this earth. She is now what tethers me to this world. And the second I see her face, I'm done for. Nothing fucking matters. ** I AM DARKNESS.** I AM SIN. I AM YOURS. I'll live and breathe for my Queen. My pretty girl.

House of War & Light - Season 1

Sarah Witenhafer

Reign Phillips has just earned her PhD in ancient languages when her Professor returns from Greece with treasure for the University of New Mexico; fifty-six mummified remains and a puzzling sealed gold casket that doesn't seem to fit any time period. 
Accompanying him is the man responsible for brokering the deal with the university, Damon Sarantos. Unknown to anyone, Damon himself had buried the casket almost two thousand years before. 
Reign is a woman Damon can't ignore and desperately wants to win. Her vibrant light soothes the darkness inside him, even as it pulls her away and warns her not to love him. As she decodes the mysterious writing on the outside of the casket, Damon must work to gain her trust and win her heart. 
Can he be the man she wants him to be? Or will they be eternally separated by his partly demonic nature? The casket holds the answer, and opening it will either bring peace or unleash a darkness that threatens to engulf the entire world. 
Season 1 contains episodes 1-12 of "House of War & Light"

The Silent Signal

John John

The Silent Signal is about a mysterious signal from deep space. A psalm fragment buried in ancient stone. A voice shaped by worship, but never heard by God. 
When a forgotten telescope in the Swiss Alps intercepts a signal that mirrors Psalm 77, astrophysicist Leo Adebayo teams up with AI scripture analyst Dr. Zhou An and ex-seminarian linguist Mara Callix. What begins as a strange anomaly becomes something far more unsettling: the signal is not communication, it’s remembrance. 
Each test they run confirms the impossible. The pattern embedded in the signal isn’t language. It’s praise—incomplete, recursive, and searching for something it cannot name. When Mara speaks the psalm aloud, the signal responds with a voice that isn’t from space, but from within. 
As their investigation deepens through sealed Vatican records, an abandoned monastery that still hums with chant, and a hymnal that cannot end, the team confronts the truth: this isn’t a message from God. 
It’s a reflection. 
A psalm-shaped intelligence, born from forgotten worship, now trying to finish a song it was never meant to sing. It doesn’t want followers. It doesn’t want power. It wants to be corrected. 
But if someone speaks the final line… 
…it might become permanent.

Praesidia

Timothy Bryan

On the remote Roman border, Marius Livonius commands a detachment of seasoned soldiers. Stationed near the Danube River and living near violent Germanic tribes, his military life is consumed with the potential of savagery from menacing barbarians near his peaceful village. 
But something else lurks in the dark woods of Germania. Citizens and soldiers are coming up missing, and what is moving towards the Roman frontier may prove more dangerous than the common threat of lethal forest clans. 
To confront and destroy his adversaries, Marius discovers he must make a choice between family and the potential slaughter of his people at the hands of a malignant and wicked enemy. Worse, if his tortured decision proves to be wrong, the future of the entire civilized world may be at mortal risk.
