--   Paranormal  |    Action   |   Dark Fantasy   |   LGBTQ+   ---   Blake has been on the run from her past for a year and a half. Finally it's catching up to her, and the endgame doesn't look pretty. With threats coming in on all sides, will Blake be able to put up with her new gang of misfits long enough to survive?


          ----

Raised in an underground black market capitalizing on a secret to death, Blake has been trained to fight and kill from childhood. Every day was a test of her strength, and every fight was one her survival banked on. Losing wasn't an option until she had already lost. A year and a half ago, she managed to escape with the help of someone on the inside -- but she doesn't remember how. All Blake knows is that she has to keep running. 

Now that she's been on the move for over a year, it's getting harder to find people who will house her under the table or give her a job without record. The most recent option is a broken down inn on the north side of town. The problem is the people Blake has to live with -- they can't get along for long enough to stop fighting, so how will they survive when other threats come into play?

Blake's past is back to find her, and they're not alone. The North isn't always pretty, the weather has never been weirder, and who are those hazy strangers Blake keeps catching out of the corner of her eye? It's time to find out what the truth is before it's all too late.


This is a story of greed, death, and loyalty. There will be blood, revenge, and secrets. Our characters will deal with gangs, ghosts, violence, betrayal, and corruption. It will not be nice; but there is always beauty to be found in the journey itself.

Red String

22 parts Complete

A novice cupid needs to help a girl and a ghost fulfil their romantic destiny after he mistakenly ties one end of the red string to the wrong boy. ***** What happens when your soulmate dies before you've even met him? The bookish Gemma Yang gets her shot at finding true love when novice faerie Jun is assigned to her case by the God of Marriage. All Jun has to do is one simple thing - tie the invisible red string of fate to the wrist of Gemma and her designated soulmate, the popular Hayden Chung, and let destiny work its magic. However, in a case of mistaken identity, he bungles things up by tying the string to the geeky Takahashi Ryu instead. To make matters worse, Ryu ends up being knocked down by a reckless driver outside the university campus minutes later - and dies. With this massive hot potato in his hands, Jun embarks on a mission to cover up for his mistake and return things to the way they should be - but things rarely go as planned, or do they?
