As Lord Adam Beresford left Ashwood, Hertfordshire for the training and education of a gentleman, he promised to return and marry his childhood best friend, and the only girl he could see himself marrying, Grace Denham. Neither of them foresaw that it would be twelve years until they would meet again. A lot has changed in that time, and their lives are vastly different. Adam became a gentleman, and everything that the heir to a Dukedom ought to be. Grace remained in Ashwood and became a housemaid to support her family. But as their lives intertwine once more, their childhood promise bubbles to the surface, throwing their lives, the lives of their families, and the village of Ashwood into chaos.

"Aren't you scared?" Isaiah seemed genuinely floored when I didn't flinch away from him. "Of you?" I scoffed, "No." "You should be," he smirked, "I could snap your pretty little neck anytime, darling." "Get in line, darling." I threw his stupid nickname back in his face. "Why are you even here to begin with? You're nothing more than a tasty snack." He flashed his fangs and took a step towards me. His eyes lingered on me for a second too long. "I'm here to clean up the mess that your family is making all because of some stupid rivalry." "Did you really think we came here for 'some stupid rivalry'?" He took another step. My back hit the counter as he cornered me. "No, we plan to conquer your pathetic little town until there's nothing left of it." "You don't have to kill people for power. You're immortal, what more could you possibly want?" He smirked and I didn't think I'd ever loathed anyone more in my entire life. "Oh darling, you don't know anything."

A nameless girl, trembling behind the safety of her friend, landed in the Gods' worlds without knowing that she was going to be their unraveling. This wide-eyed slave, who bled two colors.

[COMPLETED] REIA LUPIN IS A SLYTHERIN. But her House does not define her. * Her name fell from his lips; the sweet, smooth sound carried away by the wind. But she did not turn to him. She stared, into the distance, her eyes stormy as she said, "The Dark Lord has Risen." And yet even with these grim words, he did not see fear. He saw Reia Hope Lupin. She stood against the horizon. And she did not bow down--not even to the world. The world...it seemed...bowed down to her.

Avaryn Alastors life couldn't possibly get any worse. That's what she told herself the second her feet crossed the threshold of Crestwood Academy. But boy, was she wrong. She'd never wanted to attend the most prestigious stuck-up school only made for the rich and the smart. She'd never even wanted to apply. But tragedy struck her family and it had always been her moms dream. The first day she's there she makes a fool out of herself in front of the most popular group in all of Crestwood. And to make matters worse one of them is her roommate! They call themselves the Devara. (Stupid, she knows). And yet she can't help but feel drawn to them. Drawn to everything about them. So Avaryn does what she does best, she investigates. Only what she finds is a whole other dangerous world. A world of secrets and pain and even magic. The Devara is supernatural. They come from a whole other world. Not only that but they are heirs to this world. They are royalty. And with royalty comes enemies ... And now these enemies want Avaryn. And the only way she'll survive is sticking with the Devara. That is ... If she doesn't kill them first. Mystery, romance, death, lies. A plot twist you won't see coming. Shadows of Ash and Gold.

a retelling of the tale of persephone and hades --- highest rankings - #1 in greek, god, greek mythology, hades, hecate, olympus --- ❝she wore silk dresses and flower crowns, she was soft and she was loved and then she was stolen, this is the story they tell, they don't speak of her rages, where she would pull rain from the clouds and the flowers turned black beneath her feet, they don't speak of how she laughed when icarus fell from the sky in golden plume they do not speak of how she grew flowers because she liked watching them fade and die and they do not speak of how she pounded at the gates of hell until they opened and how she let the pomegranate juice drip from her smiling lips and how even hades trembles under her gaze❞ --- word count: 37 431
