Dona was never the kind of woman to play by the rules. When her father died, leaving behind an empire that many thought was too big for her to handle, she proved them all wrong. She stepped into his shoes without hesitation, determined to command the same respect-and fear-that he once did. Her charm was her greatest weapon, her beauty a tool she wielded with precision. Men underestimated her, but Dona used that to her advantage, luring her rivals into her traps and making them regret ever thinking she was anything less than deadly. Every move she made was calculated, every risk carefully weighed, as she built her power, eliminated her enemies, and claimed her place at the top. But just when she thought she had it all under control, he showed up. The son of her greatest enemy, the one man whose presence threatened everything she had worked for. Their encounters were charged with tension-sharp words, dangerous stares, and a pull neither of them could resist. As old wounds reopen and new battles begin, Dona finds herself walking a razor-thin line between ambition and desire. The world she's built is a treacherous one, filled with betrayal, power plays, and secrets that could destroy her. But Dona has never been one to back down, even when the stakes are higher than ever. 2021©

The heavy smell of cigarette smoke couldn't even mask the metallic smell of aged blood beneath the floor boards. These were dangerous men. Boys with knives and painted skin.. ~ We laid in the darkened room letting the comfortable silence cover us. His tattooed hand lightly stroked the moist skin of my arm. Yuji was beautiful.. "I'm going to hell..." He said nonchalantly. My eyes danced along his strong jawline and shoulder length, tapered hair. Currents of silky, onyx hair. "I've touched such a pure soul with unclean hands..." He sat up, climbed to his feet and grabbed his silk robe from the door, concealing the Oni and blossoms that adorned his back.

Fighting is a way of life for Amelia 'Scrappy' Armstrong as well as for everyone in her town, it is life on her side of the canyon as a whole. It is what she was born to do, bred to do. Scrappy has the best chance of being chosen for the ever popular Fights, the best chance to keep her town going for another year, so she's excited when she is chosen to be a Fighter. Scrappy had always thought of Fights as intense, fun, and exciting, but not deadly. None of the tournaments back home had been. But now on the other side of the canyon, Scrappy discovers what Fighting really is. She discovers that Fighting means a chance at a life sometimes, but most of the time, in reality, it just means death. She has to Fight for her life. Fight to survive. And fight to stay how she's always been.

Ebonie was just a young woman seeking companionship after failing at most of the important things in life. That had been her first mistake, not the failing part, but thinking she could successfully find a lover (husband hopeful). Now she was just young, maybe still a woman (depending on if one consider only human females to be women) , but she was diffidently something else now. But in pure Ebonie fashion, she was somehow even failing at being turned into a supernatural being. Great.

Vampires; I'd only ever heard stories about them, never had the privilege of meeting one in person. The rules that had been enacted and enforced by the human faction's government, run by my father, forbade that anyone venture into the southern forests. And so, we humans went on with our daily routine, no one daring to spare the cursed forests even a single glance. What I had not anticipated, was that, a mistake foolishly made by my own father; the breaking of a blood covenant, would effectively result in me coming face-to-face with the head of these nightly creatures; the one and only hybrid. And this volatile man, was the epitome of darkness, and the embodiment of death... ALL CONTENT WITHIN THIS BOOK IS PURELY FICTIONAL AND WORKS OF MY IMAGINATION. MY BOOK IS NOT FOR PUBLIC DOMAIN!!
