CURRENTLY UNDERGOING REWRITES - CHAPTERS WILL REPUBLISH AS EDITS ARE FINISHED!!! -Apologies to those who have read through Chapter 18 where I previously published. Edits will include character development changes, so unfortunately, and I apologize again, you may have to reread for clarification. Plot line is very similar, I just decided to take a character's development through another stage that changes their dialogue and POV a bit. ((FAIR WARNING: I do not update regularly because life gets too crazy sometimes, but I do my best.)) Come dawn the war begins. By dusk, demise reigns. Fourteen kingdoms united by the two prophesied elementals against one man and the beasts of the underworld. As the war begins in the central continent on the southern border of Vandaria, guarded by the armies of the Fae and Andrastrian allies, Darius and Fauna search for someone who could turn the tides of war. Decisions will be hard, sacrifices will be made, and the prophecy will come true and the asking price paid. **Average Word Count Per Chapter: 8,000 **Unedited NOTE FROM ME! - I very much model my works to resemble published examples, so there are no notes in any chapters from me, trigger warnings for chapters, etc. Just the world my brain likes to escape to every now and then. Thanks for reading!

A kingdom across the sea, a man in pain clawing at a hated king who bears two shadows who protect him. A child, born from a mother with the powers of the Gods, screaming at a blood-soaked bed. A boy, a Prince, kind and full of the flame of life, sitting beneath a moon bug lit sky. Darkness enfolds the lands, its grasp claiming the continent and making its way from an already broken island, only to be stopped by the hands of fate. The hands of the girl and the Prince, and their love for the people in need of protection. This is their prophecy. This is their destiny and their fate depends on it. The Elemental rulers and their family are just beginning to find allies from unlikely and unimaginative places while creatures of myth and legend resurface from their campfire tales, and things aren't going as planned, so they'll have to find myths and legends of their own. Shouldn't be too hard. #6 - #strong-heroine #41 - #banter **Average Word Count Per Chapter: 8,000 **Edited (x2) LET ME KNOW IF YOU SPOT GRAMMAR ISSUES! *****Last Edited: 12/14/2024 NOTE FROM ME! - I very much model my works to resemble published examples, so there are no notes in any chapters from me, trigger warnings for chapters, etc. Just the world my brain likes to escape to every now and then.

((FAIR WARNING: I do not update regularly & I am currently multitasking with editing Fate & Destiny before continuing on with this.)) Daciana Alekhin is known as the ruthless assassin everyone in the Mafia world calls, Kitarni. The Daughter of Darkness. Sired by the second most powerful Mafia Lord, Andrei Alekhin, and birthed by a disgraced mother of an American Mob who left her with her abusive father, she was raised since she was old enough to walk to shut out all pain, obey her father's every order, kill without question, and never hesitate. Every Mafia knows her name, and every leader knows the bloody wake she leaves behind her, but what they don't know is the real reason she kills without question. Octavian Borghese, better known as Ian Borghese, is the heir to the Italian Mafia - the most powerful mafia. His father, Henrik Borghese, is growing old, and everyone knows it and awaits his retirement and the rise of his son who is known to be brutal and unforgiving. Anxious as he is to have his father's position, Ian loves his father too much to pester the rather kind man for the job. When an attempted assassination of the Italian heir fails due to the quick and rather ugly display of merciless defense of Daciana Alekhin, she's sent on a mission ordered by her father to play Ian's bodyguard to gain his trust and kill the heir to the most powerful Mafia. If they don't kill each other first they may very well succeed in finding the people who want Ian dead, but when hate turns into something more, things only become more complicated. Fighting against attacks from all angles, Ian and Daciana have to find a way out, but the way out has a cost neither of them wants to pay.

Description She could hear his footsteps coming closer. Pressing her trembling hands to her mouth she even tried not to breath. Her bruises were throbbing with pain and chest was heaving. She could smell her burnt skin telling her that it was deep this time. She knew it wont take him long until he finally locates her in his wardrobe. Oh, Lord, Please, help me out.She cried in her brain as hot tears slide down her cheek. All of the sudden, the room was echoing with his favorite music. She banged her head on the wall ahead on her helplessness. That creepy violin was at the max. She knew the reason too well. He had found her. Rishika just sit there waiting for her blow. She tried to numb herself. Like every other time she tried to tell herself that this is not happening to her but the moment she heard him say, "Oh, my dear Shikha, here you are." She broke into tears. She didn't have it in her to look at his face. "Please,.please, "She pleaded as she tried even more to hug her legs. "What? Am I not the same guy you so much wanted to marry?"
