Solaria is rather fiery with a temper. Reckless and careless, and very lazy in her spell casting, but the life of the party.
On the first day of October, her mother is murdered and Luna goes missing. Then more murders happen, prompting the village to fall on total lock down. Even Solaria gives up.
But on the Eve of Hollows, a woman by the name of Holly appears, claiming to know what is behind it.
And Solaria has no choice but to trust her as they embark into the Forboden Wood to find what Holly calls: The Maid in the Mist.

OBSESSION'S DESIGN
One look was all it took. Luna never noticed the man watching her from the shadows of that hospital corridor-but he saw everything. The way she smiled at the nurse, the fear in her eyes when she entered the exam room, the soft kindness in her voice. In that moment, he decided: she would be his. But Luna's world crumbled when the results came back. A rare, life-threatening condition. One chance of survival-a bone marrow transplant from a donor who refused to help. Desperate, Luna searched for answers, unaware that every road led back to him. The illness. The rejection. Even the donor file "accidentally" left behind. All of it was his design. Because he didn't want to save her. He wanted to own her. As Luna fights to survive, she discovers the truth: she isn't dying. She was never sick. And the only thing growing inside her... are his children. She thought she needed a cure. What she really needs-is to escape. ---Complete

Bound By His Shadow ( The Vincolo Series - Season 1)

Nobody says their names out loud, their DEEDS aren't recorded, but you'll see their HANDIWORK everywhere if you know where to look. It all started that one night. At the time, it seemed like nothing, just another evening. Little did I know, that was the night everything would change. The first time I stumbled into his DOMAIN was purely by accident, I had no clue what I was walking into. But the second time? That was different. I went there on purpose, driven by a job.

Close enough to almost forget what he really is. And that's the trouble because deep down, I still know how it ends. If he ever figured out why I'm really here, he wouldn't hesitate to put a bullet through my head. Walk away now while I can? I wish! Somewhere along this twisted path, with fate and its cruel jokes about CONTROL and POWER over others' lives, an ILLUSION crept into my mind. That maybe, just maybe, I had control over everything. That I was PLAYING the game. But no, not once was I ever the PLAYER. Just a PAWN in this bloody game of BLOOD & THRONE !! ____________________ ⚠️ WARNING :- THIS BOOK CONTAINS MATURE THEMES AND STRONG LANGUAGE.

Knight in Amour
Feb 2008 - The hungry moon coincides with a full lunar eclipse. It is an opportunity that no one with Occult powers can afford to miss. Warren DeMontford and Kirsty Goddard are tasked by North to infiltrate a new age feminist group suspected of being the front for a earth mother coven. They arrive just as the women are preparing to celebrate the Feast of Lupercalia, and provide vital 'fresh blood' to aid in the ceremonies. Part of the Asylum series, this story reveals the source of the mysterious hold Kirsty has over Warren. WARNING - SEXUALLY EXPLICIT AND VIOLENT CONTENT; these witches do like their orgies and blood sacrifices. Do not read if you are likely to be offended by such material or are under age. Please note - written as part of Camp Nanowrimo, this is the raw unedited version of the story being uploaded each day with that days out put. As a result it is going to be around 30 segments each 1-2k in length and still with the typos, grammatical errors and continuity errors all on display (Not helped by the iPad 'helpfully' replacing the words I intended to write with some garbage that has similar letters!). An edited cleaned version will eventually replace this one, but if you want an insight into my 'creative process' this is it.Complete
