This is a sample of the 4th version of Cryptic Asunder (the one I plan to publish). I promise that It's much better than the 3rd that I have posted on here fully. Content warning: this book contains disturbing topics like child trafficking, abuse, trauma, and anxiety. There is also mature language involved. ~~~~~~~~~ A life full of joy and tragedy, Vila's story begins with the very person she despises. Thankfully, a man by the name of Sommi rescues her from the clutches of her master. Years go by with her bubble of ignorance to what goes on anywhere else and she lives happily on the outskirts of Kai village. This all changes when she comes home from the market one day to find her little hut ransacked and her hero, Sommi, gone. A man named Vensen haunts her every thought as she travels the country of Aishy and the void itself in search of her father figure. Many strange and horrifying events take place as Vila also encounters revelations of who she is and the family she comes from. None of it makes sense, and yet there is a hidden string of order in it all.

After ten years of helping the Eskreen Military fight the resistance, Micah finds himself in the most unexpected situation. One of the most prominent members of the resistance, the face ripper, infiltrates the military base he's stationed at and takes him hostage. As the infamous killer drags him into the woods, Micah discovers that the most wanted rebel on earth... Is actually a maiden. ADULT CONTENT! READERS MUST BE +18! TRIGGER WARNING! There is abuse, Violence, Sexual content, and other trigger warnings! I can't figure out what I want to do so for now it'll be a randomly pieced story. It's also supposed to be a dark romance with spice. -Cheers Mates!
