The world is not what it should be. Lucian was born of unknown blood and raised to become Rucrea's future king and Guardian of the Realms. Their enemies had long been defeated, and their land had enjoyed peace for nearly twenty-five years. But when a portal pulls him from his time, he is forced to confront a broken world. Old enemies have risen, breathing life into prophecies that should have crumbled to dust. Their schemes rot the lands and unravel the future that Lucian's fathers once fought to protect. Fate cares nothing for timelines. So, Lucian picks up his swords and fights across eras--from the myths of the past to centuries yet to come. But he will not face the darkness alone. Warning: This novel contains mature scenes, including sexual content and violence. ***This is a sequel to A Ghost's Wish. Although this is considered a standalone novel, names and events will be referenced in this novel. I recommend reading A Ghost's Wish before Dragon Lost in Time to enjoy the full experience.***

Henry Everwood has lived in Hallows' Grove his entire life amongst superstitious townspeople. Despite his patient denial of the rumours circulating his practices, Henry is indeed the witch people fear him to be, though he hardly uses his magic for anything more than his cooking and housecleaning. Come October, Henry forbids the usually wandering ghosts from entering his home. One, however, makes it through his warding without knowing how or why he did it. Edward appears in Henry's house with no memory of his living life, his family, or his last name. Henry prepares to send him back to the howlite path, a trail of magic stones that leads ghosts to their afterlife, when a terrible memory resurfaces-Edward had been murdered. Not only that, but Henry and Edward quickly discover that Edward is alive only when he's touching Henry. With unanswered questions from both ends, Henry accepts to help Edward look into his murder, why the connection between them is so strong, and reveal whether or not the new blonde woman in town and her brother know more about magic than they're letting on. But what happens when Henry and Edward start to fall for each other? What happens when Henry's long-kept family secret is uncovered? It is, after all, as Mr. Cross, the cranky old town librarian, had warned-terrible things happen when you involve an Everwood.

Detective Ranizifel "Rane" Hyde is a demon in a world where demons are owned by devils. Abandoned at a catholic children's home for non-human citizens, Rane's unclaimed status remained secret. The nuns hid his species from the outside world, disgusted by him. Shame, guilt, and the morality of humankind was pressed onto him and used as tools to mold him into an anxious mess hung up on 'goodness'. With a pathetic excuse of a conscience and an inability to feel key emotions, Rane dedicates his time to solving crimes. When a new case ends up partnering him with a divine half-angel FBI Agent named Lukys, Rane starts to wonder if maybe he's found someone who will finally help him be truly good. Azmael is a devil that's too powerful to need anyone. Him? Need a demon? No. Such things are for weaker devils who use the strength within the bond to jostle for status and power. Azmael knows about the human cult that's stirring up the police and the FBI, and he knows which devil is behind it. He could help the two officers who come to his nightclub demanding answers... but he is much more interested in holding that information and using it to lure Rane deeper into his clutches. Azmael has never seen such a repressed, confused, and lost demon in his life. Rane is deliciously tormented by his "shortcomings", not realizing that he's better than those worthless humans he aspires to be like. And that FBI nephilim trash trying to "purify" and "save" him? Azmael wants to rip his heart out. Rane is perfect the way he is, and Azmael decides he will drag Rane into the darkness of their world and claim him, body and soul. Azmael will ruin him, and he'll make sure Rane enjoys every filthy second of it, until his precious demon is reveling in the truth of who he really is.

When Alistair Melek gave his life to the sea, a various degree of things changed. For starters, his love for bloodshed was exemplified. Bolder. He was drawn to the clash of a sword, blood spiling below to floorboards, like a moth drawn to a flame. And this love was damned to spread through his crew as some treacherous disease, claiming any and all who joined. But he knew this was the price he'd pay. The price for the sea itself. So when his crew completes another standard loot and pillage from a merchant ship, he allows his men a bit of fun. He liked to give them an audience, rounding up those who didn't fall victim to the blade during battle, and forcing them to beg for their lives. To prove how much they really wanted to live. Alistair had ruled the sea for some years now. Killed thousands, maybe tens of thousands. Destroyed hundreds, maybe thousands of vessels. And yet, each feeble human was all the same. There was not one man he threatened that didn't beg for their lives with all they had in them when faced with the wrong end of the sword. Each feeble human was always the same. Or so he thought. And yet, he also thought that this would be one standard job. A treat for his men after a night of good work. But this particular survivor, the one with long white hair and dead looking eyes... He wasn't a merchant. He couldn't have been. More important, there was no hesitancy when Alistair asked the fairly built man whether he wanted to live, and the man replied with a simple no.

Coming back to life is not easy, and he may find things are not how he left them. ***In case you missed it in the title, this is a manxman story, so yes, there will be male humans engaging in relationships, just so that's clear.
