After eight years abroad, Lana Lippian has returned to the frozen asteroid of her childhood as a Lieutenant in the Intergalactic Disciplinary Organization. It is now her job to police both Fenestra Prison and the surrounding penal colony of Subtus City. But when an ill-fated arrest leads to the death of an innocent teenager, his big sister (and Lana's childhood crush), Kor Tallow, begs the officer to imprison her in order to investigate what she believes to be murder. 

However, dangerous secrets lie behind the metal walls of Fenestra and Lana has her work cut out keeping Kor safe. Especially since her ex-friend has never been one to fly below the radar. Soon, sparks catch in the flammable atmosphere as the wary allies discover that both the mystery and their feelings go far deeper than either could have imagined.

This is book two of a novella series, mostly consisting of shorter stories of 50k-100k word count. Fiona Kokkinos is a third generation Greek immigrant whose family came over for a work and land opportunities in the late 1800s. Now in the present, she is a successful therapist and works out of a building sharing some kind of comic book company, which tends to garner her attention relatively often. However, not for the reason she ever believed possible. After a chance encounter with one of the employees at the comic book suites on the first floor, Fiona finds herself spiraling toward something she never saw coming and must decide if she can truly, wholeheartedly open herself up to her life's new, seemingly boundless possibilities. Kanda Boom-Nam moved to the US nearly six months ago and despite it being a whirlwind of emotion and loss when first arriving, now she has found her own. She has everything working for her. She has a lucrative career as an artist for Hiyama Studios, an studio apartment that was all her own and something she'd never had in Thailand with all her siblings, and there was no shortage of gorgeous biking and hiking trails in Seattle. She has it all, yet something was missing and she soon discovers it in the form of a strangely introverted woman who catches her fancy by complete happenstance. Fiona, contrite over her ethics in taking Kanda as a client when she so blatantly flirts with her regularly, must navigate this newly burgeoning sensation before Kanda leaves her world forever in the form of one dilemma neither anticipated even more than falling for one another. ⚠️TW: Contains elements of severe anxiety disorder. ❤ Mature/Erotic Content ⚢ Lesbian Romance/Lit 🖋 1st Draft. 2nd Coming Soon.

Meeting Maria by HollyBarnes393

Trigger warnings applies This story contains abuse, a mention of baby loss in the past, murder, blood, sexual kinks (including a panty kink to end all others) and more - if any of this would offend or upset you, perhaps stay clear. Accused of murder, Maria Lopez was convicted of a crime she said she didn't commit. After 6 years of incarceration , the new governor of Westmore Penitentiary has taken pity on her and has arranged for two of his close friends to investigate not only Maria's case and her state of mind, in hope of finding new evidence to exonerate her from the crime she was convicted of. While investigating her story, they discover a slightly 'unique' woman and everything becomes even more complicated when, both her newly appointed psychiatrist and lawyer, fall in love with her. Can they save her? Can they overcome their own jealousy of each other and more importantly will the stalker, they discover, cause too many issues for them all? TRIGGER WARNING - contains some dark scenes of abuse and mention of SA. (Other triggers mentioned at start) but mainly this contains steamy sex between two and sometimes three partners. This is a dark romance standalone involving two men one woman. This is a medium burn but when the heat starts, the fire is off the charts and just doesn't stop 🔥

Piece of You by atheenamaximoff

Nova Institute's bustling university halls hummed with the usual energy, but for Sara Kensington, a weight settled heavy in her chest. A brilliant scholar juggling studies and work, Sara's life revolved around one beacon of stability - Professor Lia Ramirez. Renowned for her sharp wit and captivating lectures, Lia had unknowingly stolen Sara's heart. Stolen in the shy glances exchanged during lectures, stolen in the nervous laughter shared during coaching sessions, stolen in the comfortable silences that bloomed between them. Their connection defied the professor-student boundaries. Lia, with her kind eyes and gentle guidance, became not just an educator but a confidante. Sara, with her sharp intellect and unwavering work ethic, became not just a student but an equal in Lia's eyes. Yet, their budding love story remained unspoken, a secret melody strummed only on the strings of their hearts. Then, one day, Lia vanished. Abruptly, inexplicably, the professor who filled the classroom with her presence was gone. No explanations, just a gaping hole where her warmth once resided. The university administration offered bureaucratic shrugs and vague explanations. But for Sara, it felt more sinister. Can she unearth the truth behind Lia's disappearance? And in the process, will she discover a love story strong enough to transcend the boundaries of time and circumstance?

But meddling with the future has consequences, and Death is not all there is to fear. As Evelyn races to find a way to save the new transfer student from being murdered, a voice starts whispering in her ear. Someone or something lurks in the shadows. Watching. Waiting.

It knows she can change Fate - and it's not alone. ------------------------------------------- This book is written in Australian English and uses British style grammar.

Guess That Is How I Know You by CristalCysne

A deeply moving love story that will throw you into an emotional roller-coaster of learning the diverse facades of love. "Her presence took hold of every single person inside that room, that kind of power over people was inebriating. She reminded me of a fox looking right at its prey and still, even though the prey knows the intentions of the fox, it cannot help but stop and admire the beauty of the predator until it becomes too late to flee." Remi is a law student and even though she is young and sometimes naïve, she is by no means the kind to play with. Introverted, confused, intelligent beyond her age yet unapplied, she is an inconsistency between trying to be the best she can be and not knowing whether she is making the right choices for herself. Follow Remi as she attempts to navigate unpaved roads: a complicated and tangled connection, the intricacies on stablishing a worthy career, the conciliation of her feelings with her professional priorities, the world of new experiences, and a rocky love story. When all one seeks is that perfect moment, on that perfect spot, with the right person to feel things are finally falling into place. But Remi cannot stand being on the fringes of someone else's life forever. In order to salvage everything, a new perspective is needed to safeguard her heart and shine a light on a complicate relationship. -------- If you are reading this book in any other platform other than Wattpad, you are risking both your device and personal data of virtual attacks such as malware or virus.

With Interpol hot on her trail, Kirby will have to rely on her vengeful ex-girlfriends to help her find out the truth of what happened that night.
