    "Ignorance is the biggest insult" Give me your ears, yes, you! Thank you. Could there be something more like a haven than an oppidan and exhilarating white building of "St. Miami Celestial International High School" for their son Zavier? No, atleast his acumen parents thought so, you know. Zavier Esposito just celebrated his fifteenth birthday and the naive soul from the small village in Mexico was sent to Miami, Florida to study Law.

Arcane spectre possessed the lad from dusk till dawn, nettlesome yet jocular de facto evil acts initiated. Ostered Queen desired attention and wanted justice for her soul and body, yes as the title says, "The Breastless Queen", and you get it. ***************************************************** Will Zavier be able to quell her or appease her by time traveling? Who punished Zexita so cruelly? And why!? Aren't you agog already? Wanna read more?

    Sixteen-year-old Dawn Morningside isn't quite ready to hunt just yet according to her overprotective father. Dawn aims to prove him wrong and make her long-dead mother proud in the process. Unbeknownst to her father, Dawn gears up with her two Sig Sauer .45s and her blessed twin short-swords. A maniacal half-human half-imp was her father's next target which she decides to take on in secret. She had expected it to be easy work for her but she was super-wrong! To her embarrassment, her father finds her out and manages to rescue her from the imp-man's pummeling. She gets the proverbial butt-chewing and thinks her failure is over until the imp-man kidnaps her boyfriend and uses him as bait to lure her in--but why? Dawn learns that the imp-man serves a powerful demon who wants to take her soul, and that her father is a direct link to it all. Her father is very elusive about his involvement, and Dawn is unsure if she can rescue her boyfriend let alone save herself. To make matters worse, a relentless faction of ghouls known as The Brood are in cahoots with the imp-man and demon. As prideful as ever, Dawn refuses to ask her father for help because she can no longer trust him. Instead, she summons a pesky hellhound and strikes a dangerous deal with the malevolent beast in which she could end up as dog-chow if she's unable to uphold her end of the bargain. As Dawn takes matters into her own hands, she eventually unveils her father's alignment with the imp-man and the demon. She's in for a shock when she discovers the mystery behind her father's pact with them that had ultimately led to her mother's death--and how it all happened before Dawn.
