In the kingdom of Vanderdash, there is no more feared warriors than that of the Scarlet Guard. Protectors of the royal family, skilled assassins trained since childhood, They follow the crown, they enforce the crown. To many, the group cloaked in red is a greater symbol of the royal family's power than the kings crown itself. Citizens respect and fear the scarlet guard, the power they hold. But within the guard there is only one who installed that very same feeling into the rest. Head of the prince's royal guard, ruthless and cunning, rarely seen by the citizens themselves. They call her Red. An expert in poisons and deception, the small girl has brought armies to their knees without once lifting a blade. A vermillion haired monster hidden behind the face of a doll. ~~ I smiled up at the men, "Would you like a cookie?" They peered into the basket I held out, spotting the heart shaped treats. "They're cinnamon with apple Jam. I do promise they are to die for." The taller mans eyes narrowed, "did you give the poor fool dead on the road a cookie?" My lips parted, "a dead man? Oh my..do you think it is safe?" "..depends on who you are miss, why did you say you were in the woods again?" I smiled gently, "I didn't." He rose a brow. "I'm delivering these," I shook the basket a bit, "to my dearest grandmama." He hesitated for only a slight second, "oh. well. be careful then. These woods can be dangerous." I nodded once still holding out the basket, "so would you?" "Would we what?" I giggle a bit, "like a cookie silly." "Ah.." he scratched the back of his head, "sorry, I'm not too fond of apples." Damn it. I sighed softly, "strawberry next time then." "Right..." As I turned to go I looked up at the two tall men, "you be careful now too gentleman. There are wolves in these woods." They nodded rigidly as I spun and began to skip off, giggling to myself. He asked the wrong question. I didn't give the dead fool a cookie. I gave him two.

If you loved Darius and Ivory, you might like this not so clean cut Adrian and Rose love story. Watching your best friend get married and live a perfect happy ever after, made Rose wonder if she could ever have that. Surely not, especially when the only mad interested in her was her psycho ex, and a man child who made sure every moment of her living brains was spent baby sitting him. Adrian didn't really have many things he wanted, he had them all. It wasn't till he met his cousin-in-law's fiery best friend. It then made sense that maybe there were some things money couldn't buy

Imagine If the sky was shades of purple instead of blue. Imagine If the trees were so tall that they disapeared through the clouds, twisting into the heavens. Imagine If things other than birds flew through the skies. Imagine if your only friend in the entire world, wasn't really there at all .... Heather is two weeks away from being five years old when she stumbles across a curious boy in a forest she was warned never to go anywhere near. To her, Frost is her best friend and the bond that they forge over those last two weeks of freedom is a bond that will last for a lifetime. Or will it? At first Heather didn't mind that no-one else could see Frost except for her, but when she is forced to suddenly grow up and live outside her Fantasy, things begin to go horribly wrong. And when Frost returns 12 years later, he is not the same boy that Heather left behind. He is much worse. ___________________________________ This is a co-written short fantasy, written for your entertainment by the Authors of "Bleeding Royalty" and "A Pirates Kiss" We hope you enjoy :)

“It wasn’t worth a horse, was it?” she asked. “No” Trey entered the stall and swung the saddle over Hank’s back.

Danika Wisher has a knack at getting herself into very strange situations. With hippie polygamist parents, an unfinished college degree, weird part-time jobs and promiscuous habits, her upbringing didn't exactly scream normal. So, when she meets Landon Armstrong-in a hospital wearing a puffy powder blue dress-she doesn't think too much of it. But when she keeps meeting him, time and time again, she can't help but think that maybe there's some greater forces working there. With her Wallstreet workaholic emotionally distant not-really-boyfriend-boyfriend, and Landon's own cold hearted contortionist ex-girlfriend, they're both emotionally unavailable in their own messed up way and in no place to be in any kind of relationship. But their unlikely friendship might bring them both something that they never had expected to find-their own stars.

Because their story is too interesting to ever have an end. Follow Blake and Lexi through the years!
