"There would be no point," Beatrice added, "what chance could a demon have against an Ambercroft?"
The candles flickered and the wind fell dead. The darkness smiled as the shadows whispered near Beatrice's ear:
"I accept that challenge."
* * *
It has been fourteen years since Beatrice, Lady Ambercroft, unintentionally challenged a demon to a contest where she must find and destroy him. The prize is her brother Kyrian's life.
Unaware of his sister's mission, Kyrian has just come back from his studies to announce his intention of leaving the family business: demon hunting.
If the Council withdraws their protection it will be that much harder for Beatrice to keep her brother alive. Time is running out and, the trap is closing in, will Beatrice win the contest?
Or will the Ambercroft promise be broken?

The Trouble with Hades
With the end of the blood war looming, Evie struggles to cope, knowing that she is untrained and not ready to take on a dangerous vampire. All the while, the secrets of her world continue to accumulate. From the unexpected to the hidden who are believed to be dead, Evie knows that every day that passes is another that brings them closer to a time when they will be exposed. Her powers are growing, and there is only one who can teach her how to control them. Evie must face the one person she vowed she would never meet-her father. Things are not what they seem and her father will give Evie insight into her mother's life. Letting go of the past will not be easy for Evie, but to move forward, she has to accept that sometimes doing what is necessary is far more important. If meeting her father wasn't bad enough, the powers that rule the portal will be. They're determined to make her fall, strip Evie of her powers, and banish her to the land of the outcasts. In true Evie style, she refuses to bow down to them and highlights things that were unseen and ignored. Few are standing in Evie's corner. With help from Hades' resident demon, Evie's coven grows to those who will stand beside her in the war and those who will protect her. All she has to do is get everything right.

Dear Diary
Dear Diary, I can't write to you as often anymore. There's a man here, he tells us we must be leaving our home. I don't want to go, but I don't have a choice. I believe this man. He tells us we are in grave danger. He won't tell us why, but I believe following him blindly is better than any future Hunter and I have here. We are not to talk any belongings with us, so I mustn't write to you often; only when Hunter and Xavier sleep. Our moments will be brief, but entirely worth it. We're traveling by foot across the land to the territory of our enemies. I'm frightened and I'm worried, but I know this will be good for us. I'd rather face the unknown than face the same day Hunter and I have lived ever since we arrived here. Do wish us luck, and don't fret over me. I will keep you in my heart and thoughts and I'll dance with you in my dreams. I love you, Diary. One day, we will be together. We're closer now than we ever were. Please be patient. Forever yours, Anabella ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Cover made by bree (theonlyninjasmurf) <3 Can never thank you enough! It's so beautiful!

Ascendant
Tamora Killian. A name once whispered in fear - a ghost in the shadows. Torn from her past by a brutal attack that left her scarred and alone, Tamora was forged in pain and fury. Taken in by the White Maw, an elite order of merciless hunters, she was shaped into a weapon - the deadliest they had ever created. For years, she served in silence, stalking monsters and men alike. But a rising war stirs the embers of her buried past. New enemies threaten everything she's built... and force her to rise once more - not as a hunter, but as a power of her own. As secrets unravel and loyalties are tested, Tamora must confront the truth about who she is - and who she was meant to become. In a world where darkness hunts the light, she must decide what's worth saving: her life, her love... or her legacy. *** This book has been entered into the Watty's! "Dear gods.

Flame of Sin |Blue Exorcist| |Reader Insert|
There are three sides. The good, the evil, and the indifferent. Why are you always choosing which one you're on? You've never wanted to become an exorcist. You had no interest in it. Until you went to True Cross Academy, a place for aspiring exorcists, along with a troubling blue-haired boy. Can you guess who? Rin Okumura and his brother, Yukio, have known you since a young age. You're well aware of Yukio's slight inferiority complex to his brother and try your best to always include him. However, something's... changed. Even from a young age you could tell Rin and Yukio were different. They smelt different from humans. Not by much, but enough for you to notice. How can you notice, actually? You're a human after all. Or so they think. The Okumura brothers are not the only ones with a secret. The best part is, you're very good at keeping yours. Which is why it's also safe to tell you, that the Okumura twins have a bit of a crush on you ;). #1 in aonoexorcist Highest Ranking #1 in crushing Highest Ranking #1 in swordsmanship Highest Ranking #2 in blueexorcist Highest Ranking #5 in sword Highest Ranking #6 in plottwist Highest Ranking #6 in yuki Highest Ranking (I own nothing!)

Hunter
Book 1 of the Hunter Series A family with hunter blood running through their bodies. This family kills any mythical creature they come across, and they are trained to kill and show no emotions towards the enemies. At least, that's how hunters used to be. Hunter's have always had the trouble of killing ever since they got mates that turned out to be the enemy. Some hunter's have had demons, werewolves, vampires, and other mythical creatures as mates. So what happens when every hunter in the world has found a solution to having a 'mate'? Let's just say mythical creatures better beware to what goes bump in the night because there's a new creature coming out into the dark, and they're not afraid of anything. What could possibly happen with there being a new cure to getting rid of mates? *** "Get off me mutt," I growled while still thrashing. I wasn't going to give up that easily, especially to a werewolf. He had me still however when he brought his face closer to my neck. There was no way I was the mate of a mutt, it had to be impossible because I was suppose to be with another hunter to continue the bloodline. "Why do you smell like her?" the alpha growled out at me. I threw him a confused look as if I knew what the hell he was talking about. I had no idea who he meant by 'who' and I didn't want to stay to find out either.Complete![Hunted [Wild Hunt Series: 1]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/45769882-256-k181170.jpg)
Hunted [Wild Hunt Series: 1]
#1 in Paranormal & #1 UNIQUE ranked story on Wattpad! When a monster called the Smiling Dark comes clawing at Tay Wilson's door, she quickly learns a demonic pet of the faerie kingdom is the least of her problems. The riders of the Wild Hunt are searching for brides, and more than one of them has his eyes set on her. *** Hunger Games meets ACOTAR *** *** PREORDER LADY OF THE WILD HUNT TODAY *** Tay Wilson is about to leave her Alaskan homesteading family for an internship working with a famous special effects designer in New York City when an accident leaves her and her friend alone to rescue a lost calf. Finding that calf as a fast-moving snowstorm closes in on the homestead is the last thing she wants to do, especially after having spent the last month stalked by an enormous, terrifying darkness sporting a volcanic smile and a serpentine tongue. Unfortunately for Tay, the entire legion of the Wild Hunt has come to whisk her soul away to their dark faerie kingdom, where she and several other women will be released into the Malumbrian Oaks, a forbidding forest of blood magic and secrets, to participate in the centuries-long sport of demonic and faerie lords hunting for brides. Captured, awaiting the Hunt, Tay discovers that her father is not the good-for-nothing oil rig worker of her mother's claims; he was once a Lord of the Wild Hunt, making her a halfbreed and eligible to compete in the games as the second only Lady of the Wild Hunt. To win, Tay must make it back to the castle with at least one bride of her own, while evading capture from every other Lord in the hunt and surviving the perils of the towering forest. All of this is difficult enough, but to get the help she needs to even survive until the start of the Hunt, she's forced to ally with and begins falling for Chiro, reigning Prince of Demons and Faeries. When Chiro chooses to join the hunt, the game of capture and evasion gets a lot more interesting.Complete

Rise Of The Demons
The year is 3145. Angels and Demons have been at war for centuries. The year 2268 was officially deemed as the end of the world. No one quite knew how demons escaped from the depths of hell. All signs pointed to Lucifer, that much was evident. Because of this, no longer was the world overpopulated by humans. Demons now ruled above and below the ground, quickly thinning the human population. Only a fraction of humans survived, and the remaining humans hide in fear of the Demons. To survive, Demons need to feast on the anguish and souls of the living. Any humans now found are rounded up and become cattle to the Demons. Until they are nothing but a shell of themselves, and waste away for good. Angels on the other hand fight the Demons. They do everything in their power to protect humans. Many of the higher ranking Angels were wiped out. The remaining angels are led by Archangels, and their job is to make the world right again and wipe out the Demon menace for good. This follows the story of Brianna and her struggle to survive in this apocalyptic world. When tragedy strikes, what will Brianna do to survive? How far is she willing to go to save those she loves?Complete
