[[SEQUEL to These Streaks of Blood]] "The creature cocks his head, and though he had seemed earlier to blend in perfectly with the night, he now seems to have an even blacker presence. There's always some level of light to be found, even when the source is nowhere to be seen; otherwise, how would a shadow exist? "Besides, you wouldn't have made it through the ordeals to come. These are the times of Shadows, old man. . . and they aren't going to show any mercy." A shadow is something darker than darkness. And this Shadow planned on proving just that." ______________________________________________________ After surviving through all the horrible ordeals thrown their way, Ryffin and Natalee have finally gained some level of hope for their future. They're aware of the desires for their deaths, the rewards over both of their heads (JUST their heads), but as long as they're together, they feel like they can escape any danger. They don't realize that something evil is stirring right below their feet. Soon, mythical creatures will be faced with a darkness that threatens to destroy them all. Will Natalee and Ryffin find the will to escape the black tide, or will it wash them away as it brings all of the races closer and closer to a war that could end the supernatural world forever? - ALL RIGHTS RESERVED - ©

Rainie Harper was like every other wolf who dreamed of finding her mate. A mate who loved her and made her smile with every word he spoke. A mate who would always be there with a hand to brush her tears away and open arms that felt like home. Rainie did not expect to discover that her mate was none other than Mason Vermont. The school's very own jerk. Everyone knew what he was like. He was not only a player, but a heartbreaker. Mason doesn't want a mate and he certainly doesn't want Rainie. So he does the only thing he knows he can - he rejects her.

'Standing up I looked straight at Professor Garrett, smirking evilly. "Hi, my name's Christy Evans and I'm an English major. Let's see," I said tapping my chin in concentration, all the while trying not to laugh out loud, "I'm the leader of a group of intergalactic beings who are here to terminate all those who are deemed too conceited for the good of civilization," pausing I gave Professor Garrett a pointed look of my own, "I live on planet screw you, and I'm allergic to bullshit." Smirking and feeling very satisfied with myself, I waited for Professor Garretts next move. ' -When Christy finds her long term boyfriend isn't who she thought he was, what will she do?
