Demigods are depicted as half mortal half immortal. Their kind were once the most honourable of them all, retaining all the wits and genius of a mortal, yet maintaining the great gifts of a deity's role. Legends told stories of their great talents and skills. They are everything but a pushover with their gale, and are often worshipped much higher than that of a full immortal. Eleven in total, they hail. Eleven in total, they fall. The immortal, they regained their hull. Yet five remains from the ancient times and are ready to show the gods the toll. (This story rightfully belongs to me, but the picture attached as cover belongs to it's rightful owner, and it is temporary.) [SHOUT OUT TO MY MATE, ACE AS MY EDITOR! GREAT PERSON, 20/10!!!!]

Malcolm can't remember being fatally stabbed. If the masked woman, Thalia, is to be believed, he's now in limbo along with six other strangers who are all guilty of unspeakable crimes. For atonement, they each must survive a trial involving an eerie monster in a haunting locale. Succeed, and return to life. Fail, and it's straight to hell. Malcolm could let the others face their trials alone. The monsters wouldn't sneeze at him otherwise. Unfortunately, he's grown to like some of these people. Death in limbo guarantees failure, but risking his neck to help the others might be Malcolm's smartest play. The more allies in his corner come time for his own trial, the better his chances of seeing his family again. As the trials proceed, Malcolm uncovers a link between their earthly demises. Each of the seven was responsible for a death of another, but the whos and whys are only a piece of the puzzle. Malcolm sees no sense in passing his trial only to be killed again when he returns to life. He must uncover the identity of his murderer, but with his spicy temper, he might not be able to resist a little revenge.

"Learn, kid, to never reflect. It'll kill you before your mistakes will." ___________________ Content to be left alone, writer Lark Helm has developed a lifestyle that keeps him under the radar. But when private detective Lucy Write arrives in the sleepy coastal town and starts asking questions about a missing person, Lark's past begins to unravel and his reserved nature comes into direct examination. Lucy quickly finds herself balancing the persistent needs of her client, Mr. Sunday, and an interest in the silent, thoughtful writer. How far will Lark go to keep everyone at arms length? And what about Lark's past is so dark that he's condemned himself to a solitary life? ___________________ ***New chapters every Sunday evening! ***Heads up: this is more or less a first draft. I'm releasing chapters as I write them. Once I've completed the book, I'll be going back to edit each part. And although I can't yet predict what must stay and what must go, there's a charm to a first draft that makes it a book all on its own. ___________________

"Um, hi," I say, my voice quivering under their gazes. "Hello, little one," the leader -- Caspian -- says. "I think we're going to have a lot of fun, don't you?" ~~~~~ When Gwendolyn Sage waltzed into Whitmore Academy, she didn't expect her dorm to be placed next to the bad boys of the school. After escaping an abusive home, she hopes to refresh and reform her life by living at the academy and staying under the radar, but Caspian Thorn, Atlas Montgomery, and Roman Whitmore throw a wrench in her plan. ~~~~~ !!WARNING!! This is reverse harem (FMC ends up with 3 men) and a standalone. Also: this is not paranormal - the term "demons" is used in a purely figurative way. all chapters with mature content will be marked with an asterisk (*). This story will be marked as mature when I mark it as complete. 26/30 chapters done (plus epilogue)
