How Fools Fall In Love (The Smittenverse) by Basic_Beth
Fandom: S&D Tier - Lighthouse Raiders (Web Series)
08 Jan 2026
Summary
This series is the over arching story line for my S&D Tier AU which a fan lovingly dubbed The Smittenverse after my first book Smitten & Devoted. The individual 'books' have been added into their own separate series as well since this collection of works has grown rather large.
The book order is: Shackled & Discarded - Prequel Anthology, Smitten & Devoted - Book 1, and Simpering & Domestic - Book 2.
Salacious & Demanding is an anthology of the explicit chapters from Book 1 & Book 2 that have been separated out so the rating for each book can stay Mature, and so that readers not interested in explicit content can read my fics without having to worry about encountering those chapters.
I realize how complicated the timeline is, so here is a google sheets link with all the chapters listed in order with links:

Summary
"Look, you're a vampire now, and you need to figure out how to do this yourself, at least until Ohio reverses it. It's gonna be risky not matter who you pick, so grab someone off the street and let loose a bit. Maybe you'll actually have fun! Can you imagine murdering together with you as a vampire? That would be so cool!"
Morgan had stopped paying attention. They muttered something under their breath, but it was too jumbled to hear. Morgan was grinding something out; Alex had seen the look enough times to worry.
"What was that?" Alex asked.
Morgan's attention snapped back to Alex. "It's not always a risk. I have you."

Summary
*No way. No fucking way.*
"Wait, really?" It was Morgan's turn to be a deer in the headlights.
Alex had already rolled up their sleeve and was offering their arm to Morgan, one eyebrow raised. Amusement gleamed in Alex's eyes, and Morgan felt their stomach drop into their feet. Morgan had forgotten a core rule for dealings with Alex; spite outweighs laziness every single time. Morgan interrupted their show, and then they threw a fucking gauntlet into the arena.
"Oh, this is a fight. I suggested it and now if I back out it's gonna be a thing isn't it?"
Alex grinned the same feral smile they flashed for cameras and terrified civilians. Morgan was fucked.
