Welcome to Duskwood: Where Shadows Rule and Secrets Lurk In the mysterious town of Duskwood, Georgia, where the glow of the 1990s meets an undercurrent of darkness, the line between predator and prey is razor-thin. When Laraé , a fierce woman fleeing a haunted past, arrives seeking peace, she unknowingly steps into a storm of blood-soaked secrets. Beneath Duskwood's small-town charm lies a chilling truth: vampires rule the night, their power cemented by a centuries-old covenant led by the enigmatic Elder, Malik. Humans survive under a fragile truce, never suspecting the darkness lurking beneath the surface. But Larae is no ordinary newcomer. With a rare and dangerous bloodline, she becomes the fulcrum on which Duskwood's future pivots. As whispers of a prophecy predicting the downfall of the vampires spread like wildfire, Larae is thrust into a deadly game of betrayal, rebellion, and redemption. Torn between warring factions-a charismatic human rebel leader, Kaspian , and a rogue vampire seeking atonement, Malrik-Laraé must embrace the truth of her lineage and unlock powers she never imagined. But with the balance of Duskwood crumbling, time is running out. Old alliances fracture, shadows grow darker, and Laraé faces an impossible choice: embrace the darkness within her blood or forge a new path that could save both humans and vampires alike. In Dusk wood, every secret comes with a cost, and survival demands courage, sacrifice, and the will to defy fate. Enter if you dare-because in this town, the bravest souls are the ones who face the darkness and refuse to let it win.

Book 1 of (The Awakening Series) {#1 Supernatural} {#1 Paranormal} {#1 Lycans} {#1 Vampire Romance} {#5 Royalty} The world went to shit long before I was born. Humans like me use to believe other species were nothing more than fictional characters, myths, or figures of one's imagination. But that was before vampires left the shadows and decided to reveal their species to the world. I've been told that teenage girls use to fantasize about being swooshed off their feet by those mysterious creatures. Insane. Matter of fact, insane would be an understatement, they were fucking lunatics. Vampires are not some fictional character that would love you like no other. No, vampires are not some sort of myth, and they most certainly are not, a figment of anyone's imagination. They are very real, and they despise the human race. In fact, they have enslaved my entire species and formed a new world. Each continent is owned by a ruthless, bloodsucking, barbaric, the vampire king. Every single one of them has played a part in the war of the awakening, showing no mercy, killing without question. Humans didn't even stand a chance. Our army and world leaders were killed or imprisoned in less than a couple of days. They slaughtered my race, but it didn't stop there. No, that was only the beginning of human suffering. Trust me when I say the death was truly a kindness, because anyone who survived the awakening, would beg for death. I was positive that my suffering would come to an end when I turned eighteen. I was hoping and praying to be marked as a feeder, nothing more, nothing less. Death was the only way out of this world. You see, all of the kings who ruled over the earth were cruel and calculating. They are all tyrants in their own right and they all answered to one vampire. Who was known as the most barbaric of them all and I was marked as his chosen. The King of all Vampire Kings.

Don’t expect anymore visits like this, next time I come I expect you to use that thing,” he told her pointing to the stake on the bed, and then he was gone.

"You belong to me now, I suggest you behave" the King said, his cold hands gripping my jaw. My eyes were forced to stare into his sliver orbs. "Or what?" I asked, gritting my teeth.

**********MATURE CONTENT(18+)********** I made my way to the huge brick house. Roses were scattered all across the ground that led me to the front door. It was made out of oak wood and had scratches all over them. It looked like it was attacked by a wild animal, maybe even a coyote. I pulled it open and found myself face to face with those amazing golden eyes. I fell in a trance as his hands caressed my cheek and lower back. "You're not scared of me?" He spoke so close to my face I could feel his breath on my lips. "No, I would never be..." I was almost at a whisper when I said that. As fast as lightning I was pushed against the door I had just opened. "You should be. I'm a monster and only want one thing." He said moving his face away from mine with a smile. "What do you want?" I had then noticed his teeth had grow and were now striking his lower lip. "Your blood." He grabbed my hair and pulled it to the side to where my neck was completely exposed. He bit down in my neck and instead of feeling pain all I felt was pleasure. I moaned and grabbed at his shirt pulling him closer. ~•~•~•~•~•~ Book #1 ~•~•~•~•~•~

She was a piece of Heaven he wanted to own. And he, was the flames of Hell she wanted to tame. "You must be tired." The unparalleled face softens with an indulging smile, and I nod hastily like a chick pecking at grains. My reason, wisdom, and rationality became words of a foreign tongue when the fingers tangled amongst my hair trail down to my cheekbones, the caresses like the fine strokes of a paint brush that gave colour to my skin. "But next time." His eyes of hellfire narrows, reflecting the features of a iolite-eyed mortal, and crimson lips pull back over sharp canines.
