Short story about the old man who lived alone

Commander Liao Shan gets back to the Imperial capital with his cavalry troop after a month in the badlands, to find he has a new mission: escorting a convoy of treasure to the Kingdom of Qiu, an ally of the Empire in the far north-west. To complicate matters, the treasure includes the beautiful young Sixth Prince Yan Jinhai, forced against his will to enter the harem of the vicious King. As the journey progresses, Liao Shan finds his conscience and his heart increasingly in conflict with his orders. And it doesn’t help that the young Prince, kept a virtual prisoner in the Imperial Palace, is hell-bent on escape.... more>>

As the journey continues and the relationship between them deepens, events are building which will rock the Empire and turn both their lives upside down. <<less

Fun little fact: Cratenia was a fictional country created by the Brazilian Army to act as OPFOR for the operation Suruamu, one of the first operations to feature the new light infantry heliborne brigades, a true combined arms exercise, some conspiracy theorists say that the whole operation was actually a coverup for a black ops operation against the CIA in the border with French Guiana, but that’s beyond me. <<less

On the run after stabbing a patrolman, Jenna of Christos became a pirate and fled to a far of galaxy. A brilliant pilot of space... more>> craft, she eventually joined the ship of Thurgod Drista, one of the pirates’ most successful leaders. But things changed and they barely survived a trap set by the Empire.
Stunned by the rash of attacks by the Imperial Legion that wiped out many other pirate ships, Jenna and her crew are on the run again, this time taking a dangerous risk; they are going to Trilla, the demon planet to steal a hidden treasure known as The Dark Lords Hoard. But no one who has ventured into the tunnels leading to the hoard has ever returned and Captain Traska, who commands a strong legion task force, is determined to capture or kill the last remaining pirates and is hot on their trail.
Can they survive the terrors the tunnels hold and escape the Imperial Legion who are bent on their destruction? And what about the terrifying and powerful, immortal Dark Lord who ruled the empire for many thousands of years and vanished almost a thousand years ago; is he truly gone or will he return and seek vengeance against anyone who dares to plunder his hoard? <<less

On the 16th of October, 2022, the end of the world began not with a whimper, but an overpowering bang.

The two werewolves Mads and Levi meet for the first time as children. Only a few years later do they meet again and feel attracted to each other. But their two packs don't get along.
In addition, Mads fears being tied to a witch or a wizard as a servant and leaving his homeland as a slave. Because his pack always sends the weakest wolves to protect the strength of the pack.
This is an agreement made with the witches a long time ago when the wolves lost the war.... more>>

(This is a spin-off to Julia's story. (Witch – The Revolt / Witch – The Queen.) The book can be read as a stand-alone book, but I recommend reading the witch books as well to better understand the world. WOLF is set between book 1 and 2 of 'Witch'. In addition, you will some characters there again.) <<less

The Deep Paths are a cursed place, a special hell meant for those wicked souls whom the gods themselves denied the sweet release of death.... more>>

Ghouls, revenants, and forgotten things haunt this underworld, wielding forbidden powers and often consuming those who lack the strength to join them. At least, that's the story that parents teach their kids up on the surface.

Reshid can't remember what he might have done to deserve such a fate, but he learns quickly that there is a lot more to undeath than the gods and their faithful preach to the living. Revenants have a unique connection to essential magics that allows them to develop their powers in extremely diverse ways. Wherever there is power, though, there are those seeking to wield it, whether they be governments and gods from above, or mythical elder races from below. <<less

For one, it's a call to a higher cause. For another, it's a chance to earn money and renown. For the third, she seeks experience and to explore the world outside her forest home. For the last, it is a chance to gain strength, and hunt down her mortal enemy, to finally claim revenge for her slain family.

Disparate elements collide in the most unpredictable ways in Ahya. Yet again, ordinary people are pulled together by the golden thread of fate. What awaits them in this wide mysterious world? Can they come together to accomplish their shared goal, or will they fall and fade into history as another set of long-forgotten names?

After being rejected by the man he thought he'd marry, Jesse travels to DeiganLupus for the Grey Moon Ceremony. However, when the ship he was supposed to take is lost at sea, he boards the Silver Treader to reach his destination. But the Galleon turns out to be carrying more than military and medical supplies, and the prisoner in the brig knows his name.

- ⥽ ◯ ⥼ -

Without the determination or skillset to join his family's hunting business, Omega wolf Jesse makes a last-ditch effort to find his life's meaning. He travels to DeiganLupus for the Grey Moon Ceremony, a yearly celebration where most rejected and unwanted wolf walkers like him find their soulmates. However, not only is the ship he was supposed to take lost at sea, but the only way to get there is on board a military vessel carrying supplies...and a dangerous prisoner.

The moment Jesse boards, his instincts warn him of nearby danger, but they also urge him to follow a mysterious voice echoing through the vents. After crossing paths with Ross, a wolf walker on trial for the murder of hundreds of his own kind, Jesse's objective to reach DeiganLupus is overshadowed by the possibility that this criminal might be the very wolf he'd come looking for.

But when he learns that Ross is the Alpha of an outlawed pack that his family have been hunting for years, he is faced with a gut-wrenching decision: hand over his mate and hope it's enough to prove his worth to his family, or stick with the man whose soul is tied with his and turn his back on his family for good.

Oh...,****

Medieval fantasy-world sword and sorcery, but make it gay.

This wholesome, happy-endings-all-around, smutty queer fantasy romance features an M/M main couple along with a host of supporting characters bringing some trans rep, some pan rep, some sex worker positivity, and even a straight ally who tries his darndest, bless his little puppy heart.

Plenty of fluff, plenty of sexy times, a few funny bits, and our gang do all make it through the Horrors - but there is a war on, so there's also plenty of angst and a bit of bloody violence along the way.

CW: Violence, violent death (no main characters), homophobic society, internalized homophobia and closeting, internalized transphobia (supporting character), war veteran ptsd, slavery (supporting character - no abuse of this character is depicted and sentiments are anti-slavery), strong language. <<less
