She felt his surprise. She felt his light extinguish as he died. Then there was nothing. Nothing. Her head was swimming like it was underwater. She couldn't move. She couldn't move. Her vision blurred, a man was speaking but she couldn't hear his words. She felt the sword in her chest, but it wasn't there. He killed him. He killed him. Breathe. Did she stop? Breathe. The man, she could hear him speaking. What was he saying? Breathe. She inhaled a deep breath. And another. Then another. Things started to clear. "Breathe. That's right," the warrior coaxed. She started to take another settling breath, and his face came more into focus. The first thing she noticed was his piercing green eyes. She had never seen eyes quite like that before. She stared into them, mesmerized. He mimicked a breath and she took it with him. She was coming back. "I will not hurt you," the man kneeling before her promised. Anna knew better than to believe him. What was it he had said? Oh. "You...you said...you said 'no witnesses'." She was shaking violently. She took another deep breath. "Ah, " he uttered in acknowledgment. "You are not a witness, you are the treasure

Azira's whole world consisted of being a hero. The daughter of the Dynamic Duo, she was destined to fulfill her role as the dutiful daughter in the Heroes Academy. A world where those with superhuman powers are taught to wield their powers for good and change the world. That is until a villain named Scar enters her life and changes her whole perspective on what it truly means to be the good guy. Scar loves her. And knows she loves him-she just doesn't know that yet herself. But she's about to find out. ~Excerpt~ "Why me?" I asked exasperatedly. "You do all of this for me, and why? For what reason?" "That's where you're still wrong, honey," he said darkly. "I'm not doing this for you. I'm doing this for me. I wanted you, so now you're mine-that's all there is to it. And by being mine, if someone hurts you, they're hurting me. And I am not one to take that disrespect lightly. Do you understand me?" "No." "You will." He knelt next to me, his face hovering over mine, his arms on either side of the machine, caging me beneath his upper body. "I will ruin you-I'll fit you to my mold; I'll take that goody-two-shoes girl you are, and turn her into a force to be reckoned with. One that's mine." I quivered. "All mine." "I..." His proximity had me beyond nervous. My throat constricted as I tried to regain my composure. "Will never be yours." He laughed, his hand caressing my cheek. "You and I both know you already are." *Enemies to lovers (mildly) dark romance* PUBLISHING ALSO ON ROYAL ROAD AS LEELEEACE1

Dragged into a brutal world she never knew existed, Athena comes face-to-face with Silas Silverwood - a cold, ruthless Alpha King whose very presence awakens something wild and dangerous inside her. Something that was never meant to be tamed. Because Athena is not human. She is a suppressed Lycan princess. And Silas... is her fated mate. As ancient magic begins to break and memories claw their way to the surface, Athena must confront the truth: the monster who took her may be the only one who can set her free. But loving him means stepping into a war that destroyed her past - and claiming a throne she never knew was hers. 🏆 Ranked #1 in Mage, Werewolf, Power Awakening, and Secret Royalty on Wattpad.

Start Date: September 16, 2017 End Date: August 1st, 2018 Shapeshifting has always been around us but we've chosen to remain ignorant to the signs we've been left with. But in reality, it has thrived not below us but within us and around us. We continually turn a blind eye to the treasures hiding in plain sight. At the age of fourteen, if you are suspected to be a shapeshifter, you are required to go to Vale, a school. A school like this was hidden from the world under ground. Once at the school, you are sorted into to teams of eight to fifteen students. Each team is given a quest to complete instead of completing an exam. If the quest is not completed, you do not advance to the next year. With tensions running high between the Shapeshifting Clans, this is not easy. At the last minute, a group of nine students is thrown together to form a team. And they don't exactly get along. Lark Tanning has just discovered her powers and is still exploring the peculiar aspects of her predicament. She struggles to understand why she of all people is put to lead the team's quest... and so do the others. Harper Magdalena has known she could shift into a bird since the age of five when she fell off the South Rim of the Grand Canyon. She'd never told a soul until one August day when a boy accidentally stumbled upon her shifting. When she's offered a place at Vale, she's amazed to learn she isn't as different as she thought. Lance Taylor is an arrogant boy who's known it was his destiny to go to Vale since he was able to walk. He's anxiously awaited the day of being assigned a team and quest. He can't wait for when he's chosen to lead his team through their quests... until he finds out he won't be. The team has a bumpy road ahead and if they can't learn to work together, they could very well fail the quest but much more is at stake than that. A mysterious voice has been edging their way into some shifters' minds and no one can figure out who it is or what they want.

Watty's 2018 Long list! Highest Ranking: #1 in Action & #1 in Fantasy. (For ease of reading for those with mobile devices, this written work will be one story section per chapter.) Brenna Caldwythe walks in the forest on her sixteenth birthday and discovers a relic. Her discovery begins a chain of events which will forever alter her purpose in life. Aederan, the world upon which she lives is threatened by unspeakable evil, which is growing in strength and power. "Listen child to the voices in the wind blowing through the grasses and the leaves, they speak of many things; the wise should listen to what they have to say. You are young and know not of the darkness, yet you sense its wicked ways. The evil is spreading through the water, the soil, and through the air, seeking to corrupt the world," Elliana said. "As a flickering flame can shine brightly in the darkness, driving back the shadows; so too, can the power of one who is pure, strong of heart, and faithful. My child, you are the one Light of Elliana and are Aederan's greatest hope. Go forth, and rally those who share your dream of finding the sanctuary, for within lays the destiny of your world." Prince Donovan Answaar, through events, finds himself guided deep into the forest. Determined friends, in the form of Morgan, Changa, Girard, among others, are found by Brenna who leads them to Donovan. Five friends realize they're experiencing the same recurring dreams which state they must begin a quest. Twelve loyal friends discover the horrific truth about their world's ancient past. With the enemy pursuing their token force of intrepid adventurers, they must face dark sorcerers, evil necromancers, the undead, and the brutal malice of a Black Dragon. These stalwart heroes are locked in a race against time. The prize is nothing less than the hope of victory over ancient evil, which threatens to destroy their world.

I hate having to write these... I don't know how to describe a book I haven't finished yet. But, based on what I have, here it goes. Please, keep in mind, this is book two of the trilogy. If you haven't read the first one yet, you can find it in my profile, Bound by Destiny. Barely living through the trap set by the Fae that wants her gone, Eve imagines the worst is behind her. A change of location brings hope and sadness. But when one of her vampires is taken, she realizes that the fight will never be over. Not as long as she lives. Armed with magic she doesn't know how to use and her lovers, she enters a world she had never believed could exist, on a rescue mission that would see her take the Unseelie throne, or her and all those she loved dead. To those who have read book one, there are a few changes. Nathaniel's name is now Naiel. And Gabe is dark blond with gray eyes. There will probably be other changes as I go, because that is the type of writer I am, lol. I am going back and editing the changes into book one. I'm terrified, but will be entering Bound by Destiny in the Watty's. Pray for me!

The city is plagued by whispers-shadows that slither through alleyways, unseen hands that brush against skin in the dead of night. Seraphina Duskborne has always felt them watching, lurking just beyond her reach. But when one finally steps into the light, she realizes she was never meant to be ordinary. Lucian, a being woven from darkness and desire, was sent to claim her soul. Bound to the Abyss, he is a hunter of wayward fates-a creature with no heart, no mercy. Yet, something about Seraphina unsettles him, tempts him, makes him hunger in ways he shouldn't. She is not just a mortal. And he is not just her executioner. As their fates intertwine, Seraphina finds herself trapped in a dangerous game of seduction, secrets, and power. Lucian is both her captor and her obsession, his touch sinful, his presence inescapable. But there are greater forces at play-forces that want her dead, and Lucian broken. In the end, one of them must fall. But will it be to darkness-or to desire?
