Mara is the King's assassin. In a world with witches, wizards, sorceresses, and the lot, it's the only life she's ever known, and she's learned not to let other relationships get in the way of her job.
Things are getting difficult for the kingdom of Wick, and the king's way of dealing with it is ignoring it, no matter how many times Mara has warned him of what is coming.
When the news reaches the king that his younger brother, parading around and calling himself "Shade", has taken part in starting these rebellions, he is furious, and sends his own personal assassin to take care of him and his followers.
But when Mara has a face-to-face encounter with "Shade", she learns about a world she never knew existed, and meets people that she grew to love more than she ever thought possible.
However, some people are still skeptical- how could someone this cold have such a sudden change of heart? And have her loyalties to the king diminished or grown stronger?

"Why would I want to do that?" he murmurs, his voice smooth but carrying a dark undertone that chills me. He takes a step forward, and instinctively, I step back. "I've just found you..."

Rosalie's Kingdom {OLD VERSION- INCOMPLETE}
REWRITE IS UP NOW ANd is way better seriously. Taking a shortcut was the most life-changing decision Rosalie had ever made. One large demon cat later, she's whisked away by two knights to a separate realm because of her violet eyes and striking resemblance to their long lost princess. Ro is shoved into a life of magic, with duties to her kingdom and people piled on top. Duties, like being forced to attend the most elite school in the realm for young knights in training. But with her newfound strength and political influence comes death threats and assassination attempts from an unseen enemy. Rosalie juggles everything in her new life, hoping that she'll one day be the ruler she knows her kingdom deserves. This story has been one I've bounced around my head for years now, and I've finally written it out. You could say this is a labor of love. And pain. And caffeine. So much caffeine. Enjoy this, my first story. EDIT: Now that I've poked around on Wattpad some, I realize that this is somewhat similar to MyLovelyWriter's Celeste Academy. I'm very sorry for any misunderstanding, but I can assure you, I just have an awkward and longstanding obsession with castles, knights, and magic.Complete

Silk Skin and Smoke (Age Gap)
BOOK 3 "Dance with me Tallulah." His whisper slithered over my skin, tempting me to comply. I smirked as I brought forth my current, allowing it to course my skin. I put my hand in his expecting him to fall to the ground from my immense shock. He only smiled, clasping his long fingers around my hand, tugging me up from my chair. I gasped as he pulled me in, forcing my body flush with his. I called on my full power, letting my electricity flow through him. Why wasn't he reacting? Anyone else would have been screeching in paralyzed agony. He hummed as I tripled the amount of electricity that would normally kill a man. "I suggest you stop. All that powers making my cock hard." He whispered, letting his blood stained lips graze my ear. ~~~ Tallulah has been in hiding since she was a baby. As the first half demon child to walk the earth, her father, demon rebellion against the vampire royals, wanted to shield her from supernatural backlash. But it was her fate that worried him most. The fate that a certain horrible, emotionless royal would take her as his own. Her father preferred a mortal life for his precious Tallulah than suffer eternity mated to the heartless blood thirsty Augustus Vercelis. Augustus is formally known as Augostino Vercelis, royal throne holder of the undead. Although he is indeed a murderous vampire, he hadn't enjoyed the bloodied kill of his thirst in over 200 years. His curse had him bound to good nature. At least until he finds the mystery creature that holds the ultimate gift of soul-mated love. If he can have her, he is free to lead the life he pleases, with zero constraints. And he is determined to make Tallulah his when he feels her blade deep in his heart. She's a feisty little mouse, but he likes the chase. (Warning: This book has intense mature scenes! Kink shaming comments will be deleted. Augutus has lived almost a thousand years with zero emotional attachment to anyone, his love is an acquired taste and doesn't come naturally.)Complete
