"The sound of the impact echoed through the air. I stand frozen in place, staring at the boy's broken body lying just feet from me. Others in the square rush to his side, but I could tell from the amount of blood pooling around him and the way his bones were contorted that the boy was beyond saving. The King wanted to send a message and he sent it effectively- help me, and you will die." ____________________________________ For years Lexi's parents used their dark magic to breed fear and misery throughout the mysterious land of Kapanathy. Although they have since been executed for their crimes, another has taken their place on the throne and has proven himself to be the most heinous sovereign in Kapanathy's history. An ancient prophecy foresees only Lexi has the power to subdue the new monarch, but she's concerned that tapping into her magic will force her into darkness like her parents.

Desperate to get back to the comfort of his Wifi before another unicorn tries to impale him, Káel will do anything short of intentional murder to pop a one way ticket to Earth, but he's already set off a Goldberg monstrosity that's turned his bland life on its head...

2018 • [ A CROOKED TALE, a phantom's whisper, watch it burn, feel it blister. ] • A forest. A hut on chicken's feet. A fence of blood and bone. Before she was Baba Yaga, she was just a girl. Fuelled by spite and hatred for the world around her, Yaga Izeva has always had two faces. A beautiful one, the tailor's girl and a perfect wife, and the other, far darker than anyone could've ever imagined. Because things like that didn't happen in their village - until they did. With the blood of her village on her hands and nowhere to turn to, Yaga runs to the open arms of the forest, where the water runs black and the trees are haunted by ghosts of the past. Power is a pretty thing - before it consumes you. Go to sleep, children. And watch out for Baba Yaga.

#featured #1 in The Paper Plane Awards #15 in Fantasy #46 in Supernatural "What do you think you're doing?" "You seemed cold," he replied, voice sultry, alluring and tempting her far beyond what she thought she could endure. "I thought to help. That's all." He ran his finger from her neck to her shoulder and she gasped as waves of pleasure hit her. She wanted it and her body ached for it. But it was-wrong! She took a deep breath to steady her voice. "Let go." It came out as a whisper, but it was commanding and more than she had hoped to accomplish with the torrent of lechery that was coursing through her. "And leave you cold?" His hand brushed her hair off to one side, brushing and exposing the nape of her neck, while the other stroke her stomach. "That would be ungentlemanly." Raneem could do nothing but bite her lips to keep herself from crying out. She noticed how quickly she was breathing and cursed herself. He knew he was playing her like a fiddle and she was sounding out silent notes that told him he was doing things right. She stiffened and sucked in breath as his lips pressed at the nape of her neck. ················· Tyrant? Egoist? He's certainly a man of many charms. Zane, an Elf Prince, is known for his sinful, wicked and seductive ways to manipulate anyone coming in his way. But he is surprised to find out that a certain human princess can resist his charms.
