Summary
Fifty years after Commander Shepard was inducted into the Spectres, the galaxy stands on the brink of war once again: it is discovered that the asari did not evolve to have thousand-year lifespans; their longevity is due to a genetic modification, that they have kept secret from the rest of the galactic community. In the face of the immense resentment towards the Citadel Council's oldest and most respected member race this revelation causes, can Shepard find enough allies in the cause of peace to avert a war, and even if he can, how will the societies of the galaxy adapt to the availability of anti-agathic therapies?

Summary
In a world where betas ruled, alphas and omegas were treated as less than human. After centuries of prejudice, they rebelled, commandeered a colony ship and left Earth for the Proxima Centauri system, vowing to create a new world where all people, regardless of gender, would be treated equally.
200 years later, a reformed Earth approaches Proxima asking to reestablish contact and to reconcile their worlds. Victor Nikiforov, a popular and successful politician on Proxima, is chosen to lead the mission to Earth and accompany a team from Earth back to Proxima for a scientific exchange.
The team from Earth consists of ordinary people descended from omegas and alphas who chose to remain on Earth. Yuuri Katsuki, a researcher into transporter technology and completely ordinary and unremarkable Earthling (a PhD and excellent service record don't count - shush Phichit!) is both thrilled and terrified at the prospect of meeting the handsome ambassador who has taken the Earth by storm.
This is their story...

Summary
Lucas knew full well that being sent out of the country on a military boat would only end up with him injured or dead, no matter what lies Lawrence spread around. So Lucas did the logical thing: he packed up and left in the dead of night, leaving behind in public forums incriminating evidence against his bastard father to keep him too busy to hunt him down.

Summary
Years after equality is achieved and traditional marriages are thrown out the window, society starts to realize that such equality has its cost. With the heavy decline in Alpha-Omega matings and a shift from family to career lifestyles, the world finds itself facing a population crisis. Betas heavily outnumber Alphas and Omegas to the point of almost extinction, and in a state of emergency the UN establishes the World Alpha and Omega Registrar.
Laws are put in place that turn average Alpha and Omegas into royalty with government subsidization. They are modern day Kings and Queens that want for nothing in their lifetime - for a price. Alphas and Omegas are given until a certain age to find a mate of their own, at which time a mate is selected for them by the WAOR. After marriage, mates are given two years to conceive or pay the consequences.
After Viktor’s greatest achievement and Yuuri’s biggest failure on the ice, they find their time running out.

Summary
"What did the world do to you?" she asked him. "That you can't even smile without looking sad?"
How could he tell her that he didn't even remember?
He's never been anything to anyone. She's a stray dog someone took in and left for dead.
They're nothing to them.
Just cogs in that machine of a system that keeps turning. Pawns on a giant chess board, that's bigger than their two countries, soldiers in a never-ending game that has been going on, longer than the span of their lives. The players change, but the betrayal, the pain and the greed remains all the same. And in that game, they're pieces of scrap metal that can be melted and molded and broken, to serve any function, at any price, no matter how despicable, no matter how in-human. They can not tell you how their lips have been sewn shut by years of injustice. Fight the system, and you die. Talk, and you die. Think, and you die.
But, the system has to collapse sometime. It is inevitable. The facade must drop.
The question is...
What, then, will rise from the abyss of the Empire?
