The pits taught me to trust no one. House Ravilon taught me I might be wrong about that. Finley's still fighting what's between us. Lysander's chaos is growing on me. Reyker sees through every lie. And somewhere between temple trials and gods who speak in riddles, I stopped pretending I could walk away from any of them. The deal was clear enough: collect the artifacts, earn my freedom. But gods don't hand out weapons without a reason. And House Ravilon didn't buy a pit fighter just to win tournaments. When we get back to the villa, Silas and Axlan are waiting. So is something else. Twenty years of survival might not be enough for whatever comes next. **Updates every Monday and Friday starting March 13th at 12pm EST**

The Valentinos have always been a family full of energy and passion, but more often than not, these emotions get twisted into the wrong circumstances. What happens when a new face worms it's way inside the household, disturbing the familial foundation and most importantly, attempting to replace what, or who, was lost?

I've seen, felt, smelt and heard things that upon reflection a sober human being wouldn't necessarily do. There was very little I couldn't chalk up to the consequences of my own actions whilst recovering from a particularly heavy night of partying. But as the stranger in front of me demanded me to stop, his entire appearance morphed into something vile. And I can honestly say that was a first for me. His eyes turned black like ink, his teeth extending to sharp points as dark veins began forming up his neck, crawling to join in a tangled web of visible webbing beneath his skin. The man I'd only a few minutes earlier considered attractive, had now become one of the vilest creatures I'd ever seen. Definitely not a crackhead.

A far cry from her terror filled past, it takes some time but she finally begins to get her life back together. That is until she's faced with a world that at no point was she ever trained for, and faced with a man that she was in no way ready for.
