When Icarus fell into the sea, he wasn't found until weeks later, when Daedalus had finally given up searching. Now, his winged descendants live in the sky kingdom Empyrea, fighting an endless war with Icaria to save themselves from being bought and sold into slavery. 

Over a century later, however, one side of the war falters and a betrothal is proposed in order to bring peace. But when Empyrea's prince, Atlas, follows through with the treaty, he soon starts to find that the betrothal will lead to much more than was agreed upon.

When paths meet and fates cross, for better or for worse, will Atlas be able to rise to throne and truly end the war for good?All Rights Reserved

Half Shadows by nickminus

In a faraway world, there are two species: The Chiros - big, batlike creatures with sharp teeth and claws - and the Lepidoptera, fuzzy creatures with moth-like wings and features. And for hundreds of years, the Lepidoptera fell prey to the Chiros, who were bigger and stronger. That is until one day, when a moth named Atlas brought the two races together in peace. He was able to save the Lepidopterans from going extinct at the Chiros' claws, and he founded a big city for the two to live together in harmony: A city called Rosa Motsi, and Atlas' family ruled over it peacefully. A couple hundred years later, a young Chiro named Tracey has a chance encounter with the Lepidopteran prince, Ezra. They make fast friends, and Tracey goes to live with the royal family as an advisor. But as this friendship is blossoming into something more, they start to realize that things aren't as they seem in Rosa Motsi anymore; the Chiros are unhappy with their lot in the city, and the peace is slowly coming down. Will they be able to keep their relationship safe, even when their city might not be?

The Fall of Icarus (Book 1 in the Apollo series) by Eileos

"The wind in his hair felt nice. It was cooling against the sun and wax that had been burning his back. It reminded him of every moment he sat alone on the window ledge of Minos' tower, praying for some kind of deliverance. Yet, it also reminded him of every moment he sat on the window ledge next to Apollo; he remembered the feeling of Apollo's soft fingers running through his hair, he could remember the feeling of his head against Apollo's chest, listening to his heartbeat. In those moments, he almost felt human." * For a long time, Icarus thought he was alone. Until one night, the world showed him he wasn't. #1st place in the Hip Generation Awards #2nd place in the lgbt category of the Creator's Choice Awards 2020 #1st place in the Atlas Awards 2021 LGBTQ category

Soar by shebephoebe

Please note: this is a third-draft story but is not revised. More than a century ago, dragons and the blue-eyed Shaderi flew together. Then they were brought down by jealous men who feared their power. Now blue eyes are a curse and dragons are a laughingstock, neither seen outside of slavery. Born a slave, her fair features mark her as a witch who is worth less than even the right to a name. He is a dragon who was raised in the arena, a life that left him unable either to fly or to breathe fire. Thrown together by an ambitious showman, they are united by a bond as old as the legends. Together, they have a hope for something more than the lives to which they were born, if only they can learn to trust each other. The words of a mysterious minstrel point them west, where rumors say their people live in freedom. The road there is hard, and at the end of it they find themselves a world embroiled in a secret war. This new world is ruled by a king who values tradition above all else. At every turn their new friendship is tested, and they are forced to decide how much they are willing to pay for a place to call home. He wants to help her learn the truth of where she came from, and she wants to give him what every dragon deserves: a chance to soar.

At the End of the Day by goldmelanin17

[COMPLETED] "We both agreed, Apollo! We said no feelings, no attachments! You promised you wouldn't get attached." I look down at my lap in worry and shame. I have no idea what to say, I promised her, but like an idiot I broke that promise. "Say something!" My breath hitches and I look up at my beautiful girl through my lashes, my eyes brimming with tears because I know after tonight we won't be seeing each other again. I stand up from the edge of the bed and walk over to her, watching as her chest moves up and down harshly with each breath. My eyes trail over the love marks I left moments ago when we were happy to only get lost in each other's arms temporarily. She's mad at me. I never wanted her to be mad at me. "I'm sorry, baby," I whisper reaching forward to run my finger along her cheek catching the falling tear that flows down her soft skin. "You promised." She whispers. I know. "I promise I'm not attached, Blue." Too late. ••• Apollo and Blue have a few things in common. They're both lonely, they're both sad and they both attend the same university, a place where they stumble upon each other for the first time. So when the two decide to keep each other company by forming a causal relationship, the hard-headed Blue sets clear instructions for Apollo. Do not get attached. #2 Dark // 7 April 2022 #1 Interracial // 8 April 2022
