\\COMPLETE// Book One A dead Earth. The past, forgotten along with it. There were no more gods and few supernatural beings left. Endless lives turned to a blur for the phoenix named Vatra. She'd had only one calling-dispatching out-of-control gods. Lacking a purpose, Vatra was lost to wander as a mercenary for hire. In the deep expanse of space, gods had hidden.

Warnings: Mild Language, violence, drinking/drug use, suggestive themes This is still a living DRAFT. Mistakes will be made. Cover by me Word count: Approx- 87,000

Norlyn has suffered many tragedies over the years, from poverty to poisoned waters to drought and now enemy invaders are turning the country to rubble. Ayla Nkri is a villager in Norlyn. She was taught from young what her duty was to her country and to her family: she must graduate the academy and find her place in the military or royal guards. Her grades are in line with acceptance to the renown Orhem Academy. But in a new world of rules and discipline, her vulgar attitude and magic might not be as impressive when compared to that of the upperclass. She and every other like her, are sacrifices for Norlyn and she must remember this-even when faced with the heir to a great noble house, Sir Zayd of Cormill, who insists there is much more to life. A noble who has no knowledge of the the suffering that peasants must face if they do not willingly lay down their lives for their country or know of the negotiations taking place between allied nations, that sort of person has no right to give her advice in what is best for her country or her family. Strong willed and determined as Ayla is, there something in the shadows-someone is watching, and without her knowing it, she becomes a puppet on a string.

General Kieran Hammedatha has been placed under pressure by his father to find a wife for far too long. You'd think that a brave and handsome soldier like him would find a bride in a blink of an eye. That's where you're wrong. General Kieran is not a ladies man. He has never been one to persue women, and cannot bear how they fall to his feet and adore him openly. That said, he is against the idea of marriage, simply because he can't stand a life long relationship with someone who's all up in his business. That is until he meets Elena Rivera, a woman of noble birth, who just keeps running away from him. With her, logic flies out the window and he is left with an impulse to pursue.

Norman Patterson believes that the world is against him. Why wouldn't he, when his brother's demeaning and abusive comments keep him awake at night, ravaging his mind? With his unique, hardly appropriate survival skills and damaged self-esteem, the largely self-absorbed, sometimes clueless man, sets on a mission to prove to the world that he can find love, no matter the cost. It appears there's no one more suitable for the job than the woman he simply cannot stop thinking about. NB 'Beneath The Surface' explores the effects of child abuse and neglect, sexual abuse, and low self-worth. While I might throw in some form of humor to lighten the mood, none of these issues should be taken lightly. 🚫 Trigger warning; Some scenes portray abuse, violence, and self-harm. ❗❗❗ If you are not comfortable with dark themes or have any triggers at all, please do not read this story!
