Soldier's Eyes by insomniamemoirs, RandomWordsAndStormyDays

Summary
Ghost has spent every moment since climbing out of his grave hiding his identity as an Omega, and has done a damn good job of making every person in his life believe he’s an Alpha. Then Shepard’s betrayal goes further than just missiles and Mexico and Ghost finds himself, and the rest of the 141, in the unfortunate circumstance of being forced off of their suppressors. With that comes the realization that he’s going to go into heat, for the first time in years.
Soap, very much an Alpha, and very much in love with his Lieutenant, offers to ride out their ruts together. But Ghost isn’t an Alpha, and Soap is about to find that out first hand.

Summary
Ghost and Soap are secure in their bond, but the addition of a new teammate, an Alpha and an old friend, stirs up long forgotten feelings and issues.
Keegan Russ is eager to join up with the 141. He’s been missing the safety and familiarity of a real squad since he was on Ghost Team with Simon Riley and all the others. He misses his old friend so it’s quite the surprise when he shows up and there he is. They’re working through the reunion and all is good, until he meets an Omega that makes the tight grip he has on his Alpha feel like it’s sliding away.
Why exactly is he so drawn to Roach, and how does he keep it from affecting the team?

Summary
The information from that dreaded hospital in Belarus has led 141 to Shepard’s new lapdog, and possibly the man himself. However, Shepard’s new Graves is not as unknown to them as they think.
Roach gets thrown into the deep end, coming to terms with the reality that sometimes friends become enemies and people you used to love can hurt you more than anything you’ve ever felt before. It’s just a question of whether or not Keegan can keep him out of his own head long enough for everyone to survive in one piece.
And once more, The Ghost has to make an appearance to save the Pack, and Simon just wants to put that part of him to rest.

What would happen if Keegan and Roach bonded before the mission in Belarus, before that terrible hospital? What if Jacob recognized Roach on the cameras and has him taken to his base before the 141 even knows he exists?
What would happen to Roach, and how will Keegan fix his Mate when his own heart and Alpha are broken?

Summary
What if Keegan’s transfer is put on hold until after the 141 has taken care of Shepard?
Roach deals with Jacob without a Mate or a bond to help him and falls back into old, distrusting habits. And maybe, just maybe, an Imprint starts to feel like a Command, or an old Alpha’s voice in Roach’s head.
Will Roach ever be able to trust an Alpha again, or will Keegan spend the rest of his life wondering what could have been?

Take My Soul, Take My Heart (Tear Me Apart) by insomniamemoirs, RandomWordsAndStormyDays

Summary
Following the references in Soldier’s Eyes- Ghost joins Ghost Team and falls into place with Captain Merrick and all the others, ready to leave at the drop of a hat if his secret Omega status ever gets revealed.
A year later he’s still with the team and has no plans to go anywhere.
But what if after the infamous mission where Keegan protects an in-heat Omega without staking a claim on her, instead of continuing to pretend, Ghost actually opens up about his Omega status instead of keeping it hidden?
That sets off a series of events that still somehow ends up with Ghost in the 141 pretending to be an Alpha, only this time, things are different. Very different.
**An AU of an AU, set before the start of Soldier’s Eyes - while technically this could be read as a stand alone, a lot of the background and how the universe works is glossed over. So it would help if you’ve read Parts 1-7 of the Soldier’s Eyes Series.**

Summary
Makarov’s bullet doesn’t end Soap’s life, but it does strip him of the last four years of his life. He doesn’t remember the 141, he barely knows he’s in the SAS. And he certainly doesn’t remember his Pack or his Mate.
Ghost has lost his Mate twice, once in a dirty hospital in Belarus and now again in a dingy subway. Against all odds, his Alpha comes back to him. Over and over. Only this time, Johnny doesn’t know who he is, doesn’t know their history, doesn’t recognize his face.
Soap is alive, but he’s not the man the 141 knows anymore, and he’s not the Alpha who pledged his life to Simon.
Where do they go from here?

With the release of MW 2023, we wondered how the main plot of SE might change if Makarov was involved and the ending of MW23 occurred, with a few modifications. Title from Black Stone Cherry.
**An AU of an AU, set at the end of Part 4 - this won’t make sense if you haven’t at least read Parts 1-4 of the Soldier’s Eyes Series.**
