ONC2025 Rafe Daring is not a hero known for his bravery. He is a farm boy known for being stubborn, cheeky, and doing things haphazardly, which always leads to chaos. When he flees town on his motorcycle, chased by the boy he'd turned into his nemesis, Rafe veers from safety to avoid his enemy. He ventures onto a strangled path through the forbidden forest, a vast stretch of access-restricted nature reserve bordering his family's farm. As with most of his decisions, this one also leads to disaster. Soon, Rafe finds himself injured and lost at the bottom of a steep slope, trying to find his way home. When he stumbles into a briar vine-covered wall, he decides that his only way home might be through what appears to be an archway clogged by vines. However, he is unprepared for what waits for him when he breaks through the thick, thorny briar vines. Finding himself in an increasingly dangerous and confusing situation, he realises that this time, he'd outdone himself in the art of making extraordinarily bad decisions. He has one question that stands out above all his other questions: "Who would be dumb enough to give an idiot like me superpowers?!" TW: Some chapters might have upsetting themes; reader discretion is advised. ONC2025 Prompt 1: You stumble upon a mysterious door made entirely of briars and thorns. As you step through, you're granted extraordinary powers. But with great power comes great responsibility - it's now your duty to save the crumbling kingdom. Word Count (WP Web) = 39 269

The Dark City Chronicles ⁓ Book Two The stakes have never been higher! The Demon's Scion is a darker sequel to its predecessor. Spicy romance, action, seductive vampires, gutsy werewolves, sprinkles of dark humour, and, as always, the everlasting bonds of friendship. Trying to keep her newfound family alive is an endeavour when they're in firefights with crazy cultists, brawling with werewolves, and giving the middle finger to fate itself. Hannah wouldn't give up the headache that is her insane life because she's finally found a place where she belongs, and she'll do anything to keep those she loves safe. Kane, admittedly, might have taken his screw fate mantra too far, and now he's a slave to an idiot vampire that isn't even responsible enough to have a bank account. He's slipping, but he'll need to keep swinging his sword if he wants to keep them both alive and everyone else that's counting on him, because their foes aren't stopping, no matter how many he cuts down. An unwilling star of a twisted play perpetuated by a vampire that went mad centuries ago, Reid is trying to find his feet with his new, blood-drinking lifestyle while fighting to stay one step ahead of their enemies. He's inherited a power that could have him burned alive, but to beat the monster that's plagued his nightmares since the murder of his mother, Reid will have to fall farther than he's ever dared-and hope that love is bright enough to guide him back from the brink.
