    Summary

    This is bad. Shepard’s…bad. This-does-not-look-survivable, bad. If Bray was here with me, he’d shoot her. I’d probably tell him to do it. There’s a not-insignificant chance this is wholly not worth my time.

    That’s probably my cue to bow the hell out of this bullshit.

    But nobody’s telling me how Shepard got to Onkarah–or why her little pureblood girlfriend bailed on her–and it’s not every day I get the chance to play hero with a side of Noverian rum.

    Summary

    When Commander Alison "AJ" Shepard opens her eyes two years after her ship was destroyed, she's met not by Alliance colors, but the Cerberus insignia--the human supremacist, terrorist organizations behind her squad's death on Akuze and countless atrocities.

    The galaxy has gone on without her, yet one face, Liara T'Soni, lingers like the afterimage of a life she may never have. Feeling more alone than ever, Shepard faces a silent war: human colonies are vanishing without a trace by a threat called the Collectors. The world believes her dead, and loyalties have fractured; every alliance comes at a cost. To stop them, Shepard must gather a crew of specialists, exiles, and ghosts; a thief hiding grief behind mischief, a vigilante thirsting for justice, an ancient warrior whose code shapes her pain, an ex-Alliance soldier keeping her at arm's length, a woman designed, a convict with trust issues, a tank bred krogan, and a scientist equally likely to kill you as he is to save you.

    Through it all, Liara threads every thought and decision, reminding her what she's fighting for. Across the gulf of what was lost, she can feel the echo of arms that once held tomorrow, and the promise of love even death can't do part.

    Summary

    The Wolf of Terra, they called her.The Red Death.

    The human hersir who had held a mountain pass alone against fifty raiders and emerged victorious, painted in enemy blood, standing atop a pile of corpses like some ancient deity given flesh. The warrior who fought with twin axes and left no enemy standing, who had been blessed by the human gods with strength that defied mortal limitation.

    The alpha who was soon to be Liara's bondmate.

     

    (Yes, it's a viking-inspired omegaverse AU.)

    Summary

    A year before the Reaper War begins, Samantha Traynor thanks Commander Cassandra Shepard for saving her colony on Horizon with a kiss. They don’t expect to meet again, but when Samantha is assigned to the Normandy during the opening days of the war, coincidence turns into something far more complicated. Between impossible missions, late-night chess games, and a galaxy slowly falling apart around them, what begins as a chance encounter becomes something deeper, quieter, and far more deliberate.

    Some strategies take time, and Samantha Traynor has always been very good at playing the long game.

    Summary

    Rochelle Shepard dies above a planet in Council space, choking on nothing after an unknown alien ship destroyed her home.

    She wakes up in a lab - but what if the story went differently?

    What if it wasn't a Cerberus lab she woke up in?

    What if she woke on Rannoch?

    A rewrite of my fic with the same name that I finished almost four years ago and have decided to rewrite... with some tweaks.
