War looms on the horizon... After the colonization of Mars and Europa, it took us fewer than five generations to reach beyond our solar system and discover new planets capable of supporting human life. Too far away to be governed under Earth law, the Collective was formed. Several hundred years later, the Collective has expanded to a system of six worlds. Power struggles and unequal rights have made interplanetary war all but inevitable. With rebellions arising across the Collective, three captains launch near-suicidal missions to free the oppressed fringe and reset equality across the stars. A galactic war is coming, and only an arthritic mail runner and a space pirate can stop it.

The Giovanni family has more than its fair share of secrets. There's the vampires, for one. And the necromancers. They've survived right under the nose of the Vatican for nearly half a millennia. But when Damiana Giovanni makes a stand against the rise of fascism, she finds herself sucked into a web of family intrigue, running deeper than she ever thought possible. She must make a choice- between her family, her ideals, and the life of her unborn child. Set in interwar Italy, this is a story of love, betrayal, and the ties that bind. Reviews: "A fascinating insight into Giovanni psychology" - Douglas Netchurch, MD "Disgusting. Depraved. Violent, pornographic, and likely libellous. When's the next installment?" - Accori Giovanni "Who are you? Get out of my office!" - S. LaCroix [N.B. - Anyone not familiar with the setting of Vampire: the Masquerade may want to check out the following link for a little context: http://whitewolf.wikia.com/wiki/Giovanni ]

"Y-you," she stuttered, staring at the handsome man sitting on the sleek black throne, "you're..." He rolled his eyes, waving his hand impatiently and said, "Hades. Come on, say it with me. Ha-des." "Hades," Ariel breathed out, still not believing the sight before her. Every picture she had seen of the gods had not depicted Hades' beauty. The god sitting before her was not a crusty old man with a white beard; no, he was a Calvin Klein model. "Yes," Hades clasped his hands together and grimaced, "the God of Death and riches; that's me." Ariel nodded, still refusing to believe but knowing she had to and Hades' grimace turned even bitter, "And you, darling, will be staying with me for quite some time." ~*~ Cover: _nymphomaniac Published: 8/6/14

first chapter is a brief on the game, but this is my fanfiction about my OC Malkavian, Luna (because she's a vampire! eh get it!?...nevermind) but it's about her being found and her helping the anarchs beat some sense into the camarilla. :)

"It's like Bloody Mary...only her name is Clara." New school, new friends...and a new game not very many are willing to play. Alex's first week at Ashworth, a boarding school in upstate New York, was something he was slowly getting used to. A school filled with history that still haunted the place...along with the ghost of girl murdered there almost a hundred years before. A game is played by four students the first Friday night of the new school year and this year, Alex was joining in. Not because anyone was forcing him to, but because he had to see what all the hype was about. No other students were willing to risk their sanity, but the four who played before swore they'd seen the girl every time. Too bad Alex believed their minds were only playing tricks on them. He thought the ghost girl was just a story made up by past students. Now, it was time for Alex to play. And there was someone else joining.
