Light as a feather, quick as a wit, quiet as a corpse. -- Five years have passed since Min Ryoung's brother died. Resorting to grave looting and treasure pawning to make it by with her two fellow robbers, she's been in pursuit to uncover the legend she believes he was searching for ever since. When a looting goes terribly wrong, the three unknowingly tear a hole in their already-collapsing world that threatens to spread deadly consequences in return. In an attempt to mend their mistake, a chase begins to contain the havoc they've released and fast. However, when they're suddenly led to the piece of the puzzle Min's brother had always been missing, the piece that could finally put his endeavor to rest, their efforts to fix what they've broken shifts into a desperate treasure hunt across all five kingdoms to reap what's been buried to its full force-and all the reasons why it should have stayed buried in the first place. True treasure doesn't come around often. You'd be smart to try and take it when you see it, no matter the price it asks for. [ON HOLD] [Book 1 of Elyseun] [#70 in FAE] [#98 in HIGH FANTASY]

Blood for blood, bite for bite. Who gets to walk away? _____ Harper Moon is a bottom-of-the-barrel vampire and one of the most notorious vandals of the modern west coast. In theory, it could admit him into the most coveted private artistry academy the vampiric species has ever mustered up. But in practice, it could be what serves him on a plate instead. Every other year for their twentieth birthdays, those at the bottom are rounded up and assigned a mentor from the ones at the top, and trained for one year to compete in the largest biennial artistic competition for all vampires to watch. Those that are chosen are debuted as the next generation of artistic machinery for the elite. Those that are not, could be food. In a last-ditch attempt to break out of his lot in life and see himself free, Harper joins the ranks in hopes of working his way out. But talent is not the only thing the games necessitate, and art is not so black and white under a scrutinizing eye. When the competition begins to melt into more than just a game of the talents, but of his very mind, Harper will come to find the world of the arts is a brutal battlefield, that passion harbors a gruesome side, and the intricate politics of what it really means to be free may not be a game he can play alone. It's glamour, greed, gore, and greatness. And nowhere is too far to go just to have a taste. [ONGOING] [#1 in VAMPIREACADEMY] [#2 in GAMES] [#2 in ARTBOOK]

Preston thought thirty days in chastity would be simple punishment: A locked cage, denied pleasure, a lesson in obedience after breaking his Dom's rules one too many times. He planned to fight, push and be his typical bratty self until Julian cracked and gave him what he craved. He was wrong. What begins as furious defiance slowly unravels into something deeper. Day by day the steel between his legs strips away control, noise, choice. Every denied erection, every ruined orgasm, every moment he kneels at Julian's feet and waits becomes a reminder: his cock isn't his anymore. His pleasure isn't his to take. And the quieter his mind grows, the safer he feels. It's a raw, intimate journey from resistance to surrender, where denial becomes devotion and the weight of steel teaches one stubborn submissive exactly where he was always meant to be... locked, peaceful, and utterly owned.
