Discretion Universe: Steven's Sci-Fi Collection

Discretion Universe: Steven's Sci-Fi Collection

Michael BN

Written by Steven Afon, the main character of “The Desert Within,” these stories weave sci-fi tropes into romance with LGBTQ+ protagonists.

Three tales. Three men with everything to lose. Written by Steven Afon—the not-so-reliable narrator of The Desert Within—this collection spins sci-fi tropes into heart-twisting relationship dramas. In Alternate Truth, Mason hides a dangerous secret from his boss, Elliott… and from himself. In The Ticket, a dying old man wrestles with the memory of a love that slipped through his fingers. And in Construct, a man risks it all for the one he can’t let go, even when the outcome is uncertain. Past, future, now—each story asks the same question: How far will you go for the person who matters most?

Why isn’t it attacking? And why does she feel like something inside her is... changing?

Savage Remains: What Remains Between Us

Savage Remains: What Remains Between Us

Kristen Mullings

Roman’s lips hovered over mine, so close it hurt, his voice rough as gravel.

“Not yet,” he whispered. “You’ll break for me in the next breath.”

Sage swore she was done with Roman—the lies, the heartbreak, the fire that never really went out. But when fate pulls them back together, the tension between them is electric, dangerous, impossible to ignore. Roman wants redemption; Sage wants the truth. Every touch feels like a promise, every argument like a dare. He’s determined to prove he’s changed, but old wounds don’t heal easily, and temptation has a way of blurring the lines between forgiveness and surrender. Between tense dinners, sharp words, and stolen kisses, they find themselves asking the one question neither can escape—can you ever really love someone who once broke you?

"Still think it's hopeless?" Douglas smiled.

"No, it's not hopeless, Douglas. It's impossible," Natasha said. "Your dream is a dead-end alley in the middle of the Twilight Zone. You've taken drunks, drug addicts, and prostitutes into the desert to rebuild a dream that will never come true."

Natasha has stopped believing in second chances—until Douglas, a charming doctor with a wild dream, drags her into one. He’s leading a group of people the world has forgotten into the desert to rebuild a ghost town from the dust up. What starts as an impossible mission begins to shimmer with something real: laughter, belonging, maybe even love. Amid cracked walls and broken hearts, they discover that hope doesn’t die—it just waits for someone brave enough to bring it back to life.
