Wattpad Exclusive! Nearly beaten to death, a man wakes up in a place he does not know. Neither can he remember how he even ended up there. Waking up in the middle of a road he discovers a world of pain only to drift off into unconsciousness again. His body having been crushed and broken beyond his wildest dreams. Falling out of consciousness from the pain, he later wakes up in a bed. A new place he does not know, but being looked after by someone. A woman. Why was he in the care of this beautiful but strange person? How had he ended up in her care? Why had she taken him in and why was she and everyone else so guarded around him? Determined to make his way back home, wherever that may be, the man soon realizes that things are not as easy as he first had thought. Learning to fit in with the people who took him in at the brink of death, he learns that a war is raging between two kingdoms, and which one he belongs to, he cannot remember... if he belongs with to any of them. All he has to remind him of his life before is a sword with a crest of two lions on its pommel... and a woman named Jade who screams for him in his sleep. This is a spin off of The Prince's Choice and Hunted Queen. I recommend reading those two before this one to get the best experience possible!

In a forgotten corner of a dying world, a young woman named Willow lives quietly at the forest's edge-gentle, curious, and armed with a rare gift for healing that her village barely understands. They call her strange. They call her witch-touched. She calls it compassion. Deep within the ancient woods stands a ruined castle and the man who haunts it- Orion, a battle-scarred immortal who has lived centuries without love, without mercy, and without a single reason to trust mankind. He watches the world with cold indifference, determined never to care for anything mortal again. But when Willow stumbles into his domain seeking knowledge, the immortal who despises humanity finds himself drawn to the girl who embodies everything good about it. Against the backdrop of superstition, disease, and rising fear, a forbidden bond grows between the healer and the warrior-one that challenges everything Orion swore he'd never feel again, and everything Willow never expected to have. Yet in a world ruled by ignorance and shadowed by old cruelties, love is dangerous. Knowledge is dangerous. And the line between faith and fear is thin enough to snap beneath even the gentlest hands. When innocence meets immortality, when tenderness meets a world that fears it, what remains is a story of love, legacy, and the lengths we go to protect the ones we cannot live without.

Captain Kieran Crowe fears nothing-not the gallows, not the navy, not the sea itself. But when his hunt for treasure drives The Iron Serpent into siren waters, he meets a fate no blade can fight. He encounters the daughter of the siren queen, her voice a lullaby that lures men to their doom. Yet when her coven drags Crowe's crew beneath the waves, she spares him. Predator and prey clash on a forsaken shore-his defiance against her hunger, her song against his will-until something deeper binds them. Their love is violent, impossible, undeniable. Together they defy sea and shore, fighting witches, mutiny, and curses that would tear them apart. But the sea does not forgive, and every joy comes shadowed by loss. From black-sailed raids to London's gray streets, theirs is a bond that scars, burns, and endures. And when death finally claims them, pirate and siren are reunited on a silver shore, the Iron Serpent reborn beneath eternal skies. A tale of ruin and salvation, of storm and tide.

{Featured Story!} #1 in Supernatural #48 in Romance #5 in Historical Fiction "They say at night, the howls of wolves echo across the land, and in the morning farmers find their animals missing or slaughtered. Keep your wits about you, my dearest friend. Beware of the wolves." 1561 Alba - Scotland Màili is the only child of Catholic Lord, Seumas MacDhòmhnaill, and his wife Màiri. Most of her life has been spent hidden away in the Scottish countryside to keep her away from the rumours rife at court since her Mother's death. Màili knows one wrong move could bring those rumours at her feet too. Cries of witchcraft and gossip about her father's dwindling funds, means Màili's future remains uncertain. Close to destitute, her dowry gone, her only chance - in the eyes of her father at least - comes in the form of an unexpected marriage match from a family willing to pay handsomely for Màili's hand. It's an offer her father dare not refuse. Quickly married to a man she doesn't know, Torian Lyall flouts Màili's every belief in what is expected from her as a wife. Nor do he or his family seem overly interested in following Catholic tradition. Trapped amongst people so different from her, speaking a language she barely remembers from childhood, she's whisked away to her new home farther North than she's travelled before. The wild and mountain filled Highlands are a beautiful place; where purple heather and thick forests covers the land, and mighty sea winds batter the waves against ancient rock. Myth and mystery swirl as thick as the grey mists in the glens, where creatures from old stories are said still to roam. And the Lyall family have secrets of their own. Secrets that might involve her in some way. Secrets that make Màili hold her friend's advice closer than she thought she'd need to... Beware of the wolves. . .
