~5k words per chapter. Azalea Burton is determined to move out of her parents house and discover all that's good. She demands to win, and craves the taste of success. However, that's just a front. On the inside she's a scared girl obsessed with her beauty and the chance of ever becoming the definition of ugly. A hair mustn't be out of place. Her mother gave her this dreadful curse. A lady is nothing but her image. One night during the chill of winter a diamond necklace lays on her side table when she awakes. When she asks her parents about the gift, they deny ever buying it for her. While they're not struggling, why would they ever gift her something so gracious? Then again, the next night its rubies. Then pearls. Then emeralds... The gifts don't stop. Her parents deny it. Demand that she's going crazy, however the pile of precious good sits in her wood side table. Finally she gives into the temptation. Her body lays against the side of the bed awaiting. The window creaks open, and a man covered in head to toe with beautiful blood red tattoos steps into her small room. They stop right at the collar, but they do extend up the wings that stick from his back dropping into the alley as he leans towards the side table. "My favorite jewel, are you awake?" His voice is gruff, an invite into the impossible. Her eyes spring tears, "Don't worry. I'm not here to hurt you. My name is Leonardo Hereward, and you are my mate. Now that you've spotted me, I suppose I should convince you to come home." Azalea Burton couldn't ignore the temptation of the green glow surrounding his irises, or the out stretched hand. As the story goes, the dragon king was successful in buying his bride. And for what it's worth, what does a volcano god have to do with it? ~ Can be read as stand alone, but I would encourage reading the first!!

"Skylar. My love. A stranger. I look at her as she halts in her step, her hazel-doe eyes not looking for mine as I hoped they would. The breeze blows her scent towards me, one I have not smelt for days. I inhale deeply, cinnamon, jasmine, apple and Sky's unique scent assaulting my senses. My eyes close and my fists clench, my Lycan forcing me forward. Damn, I missed her. That feeling was driving me and my Lycan insane. Literally." Join Skylar and Dmitri on the next part of their journey. Will the puppet master playing with their fates finally be revealed and will the love they shared be strong enough to endure? This is not a stand-alone book. Read book one else you will be confused. Find it on my profile or here https://www.wattpad.com/story/319146768-bound. Bound is not your typical werewolf / Lycan story and the focus is more on the actual relationship development of the characters. This book contains curse words (not heavily but they are there) and there are explicit sexual scenes as Skylar explores her sexuality. This book is for a mature audience. ©2022 Eloise Benjamin / greenwitchwrites. All rights reserved.

When glaring signs align with her misgivings, she takes matters into her own hands. For better or worse, she intends to do what feels right, to trust her heart and not her logic. But this is just the beginning. Her drive to be a good ruler has her questioning herself, questioning everything. Perhaps she's simply not cut out for this. Her mate disagrees. He's determined to make this easy for her, to ease her into the position she was always meant to hold. With their Bonding Ceremony looming, what could go wrong? Kane has other plans. He's been secretly working with Oshea across the Dragonfire Sea, hoping to undermine King Talon's rule. When a host of Blood Bats and an Oshean army threatens to destroy everything they've worked towards, Claire's abilities as Dragonwall's future queen are put to a true test.

Book Two of the Wild Hunt Series. The Hunt is over, but Tay Wilson's life as a Lady of demons has only just begun. Her soon-to-be-husband is a King bent on sacrificing her, she's made herself a wicked enemy in the form of the Marrow Witch, and she along with the other surviving maidens of the Hunt are trapped in purgatory with no way out. But there might be a way out. And if there is, Tay would do anything to escape before it's too late.

After being betrayed by the ones who she cared for most, Cleo must make a decision as a war breaks out between vampires and humans-- which side she'll take in it.

The wielders are coming, and they're ready for violence. With a cub in her arms, Arietta James, a dedicated vet technician in training, flees for her life and the life of the little shifter she's ready to die to protect. Her escape lands her right in the heart of the enemy territory: the shifters. Gavriel O'Connor, steadfast leader of the shifter territory, has worked too hard on rebuilding and unifying his people to allow a human to run rampant in his domain. Fully intending to turn her away, Gavriel prepares to rid his territory of another nuisance. Until his shifter side won't let him. There are too many questions about this young woman and not enough answers. His biggest question: how did she end up with one of his own? Arietta didn't imagine she'd live this long. Between the shifters and the wielders, she's braced for her final moments. However, when the shifters begrudgingly welcome her into their territory, she must make a decision: stay loyal to those of her kind, or reveal to the shifters a problem that could wipe them out entirely. Before it's too late-for them and for her. Season 1 of The Fated Series
