A dying world begins to shatter, piece by piece. Though, within those broken fragments two souls intertwine. And with the single rhythmic beat of a butterfly's wing...everything changes.
"Let's make a deal" The flames in the boy's eyes dance wildly as he speaks. She licks her lips nervously. "What kind of deal...?" Phoenix runs a hand through his dark hair, making him seem even wilder, as though he was an animal. It was common sense to never make a deal with a demon... and yet, she couldn't help but be drawn to the idea. "Lend me your life force and in return, I'll become your temporary familiar, I'll show you a world where magic exists, a world where anything can happen... I will protect you from harm... It will only be temporary" The girl's eyes sparkle with interest, "Why would you want to become a familiar?" She asks. "It will be of great use to me" The boy pulls out a dagger, bringing it to his palm he makes a small cut. Blood oozes out of the small wound and trickles down his arm.
"Do we have a deal?"

Malion: Royal Blood
"A short yelp escaped her as she slipped off the edge with a fist full of flowers. I shrieked her name and dove off after her. I grabbed her, hugging her close to me. "What the hell are you doing, Decoda! We're going to die!" She shrieked. "Come on, come on!" I chanted, willing my wings into existance. Fire surrounded me and I opened my wings, appearing almost stationary in mid air only about 20 meters from the water. Before I could move them, a horrid shot of pain ripped through my wing as I fealt it tear. I shrieked and whirled around as my wings deteriorated and hit the water first. A stabbing pain in my back hit me first, then another one in the back of my head, causing my vision to black out."Complete
Purple moon
"When old traditions die, new ones are born". Phoenix Redd is a 25 year old mix breed. Her mother was a witch. Her father was a vampire. She was born in 1995. To which she had just turned 25. Exactly 1000 years ago in 1020 there was a purple moon. It was the only one anyone had ever seen. It gave those with great powers(Vampires, Witches and warlocks) a boost. And as a vampire you couldn't mate with a warlock or witch. Because it screamed chaos. But the prophecy of one girl-or two, would change everything. When all 7 species must come together forbidding all traditions, because the prophecy has to be for seen, Phoenix will either end the races or bring them together. Witches, Warlocks, Vampires, wolves, Demons, Angels and hybrids(Witch/wolf or vampire and wolf). They must join forces. Become friends. And not to mention Her dads best friend forming an academy of his own to protect them from the evil that awaits. But what about the half breed? She belongs to no clan because she's the only Vampire witch ever heard of. And she is in the prophecy. So will she find out? And what about love? Will she find it too? Will she find friendship? Loyalty? Power? Read to find out. **This will be a series of 3-4 books. The first one will be longer ** you can at anytime let me know who she should be with!!Complete
Emblems
((Originally, Phoenix)) “Leave me alone!” Her form flickered in the dim light. The brothers shared a look. “All right,” one started. “Just let us say something first. We know you have powers; we can sense them on you. We can do this because we have powers too. We call it magic. If you want, we can show you.” “Prove it then.” ~^~^~^~^~ There was a monster inside of her – a dark thing that always tried to claw its way out, ripping her insides to shreds as it went. She found no relief from it, maybe because she had no happy memories to find solace in, nor anyone to find comfort in. And yet, Amber could be the catalyst to setting a series of events that had been prophesied centuries before, into motion, bringing together three more people – the embodiments of the Emblems – to bring magic back to life. But in this underlying world of Adepts, Demons and secrets within secrets, unlocking their potential will be harder than you think. ~^~^~^~^~^ So, this is my 2014 Nanowrimo story, which is basically an attempt to rewrite Phoenix, where it shall go through major changes in plot, characters as well as effects of my new-and-improved writing style. I hope you enjoy it, and please give constructive criticism! {Also, the cover is temporary, till I find someone who can help me with it :P}Complete

Can the fallen keep her and the rest of the mortals safe? Excerpt: "So, are you planning on telling me what happened in the city with the demons, or do I have to tempt Kazier into a make out session to get some answers?". Azriel used his annoying angel gift and speed walked me to the bathtub. The back of my knees hit the tub with a thud and I stumbled back into a seating position on the edge of the tub. I was leaning back uncomfortably and gasped in disbelief, nearly about to fall into the tub and hurt myself and grabbed onto the only I could; the band of his pants. Azriel's eyes dropped to where my fingers were gripping onto and slowly, he snaked his vision up to me. I watched him for a few seconds until he seemed to have snapped out of his thoughts. "You will do no such thing, you hear me? You will not try to entice Kazier". I shivered when he spoke, his breath tickling my face. I bit my tongue from refraining to say anything to upset him further but failed miserably. "Maybe...maybe I don't even have to try...".Complete

But things are starting to get a lot more hectic and she is finally starting to become a true demon. "Then all I felt was rage. Rage because they were ruining my time with my mates, rage because they were messing up my really peaceful life as Satan's daughter, and rage because they were hurting people around me. All I saw was red, and before I knew it, my horns and tail were sprouting. It hurt like f*cking hell. During that, somehow the ground had started opening up because of me. I didn't know what I was doing but it was happening. There were flames coming from the cracks on the ground, and I recognized them as hellfire. "Hell's nature wants you to use its power," said Dimona, shocked. My eyes widened. Hellfire was extremely deadly. Any living thing that touches it dies. That's why it's only found in the barren parts of Hell as it's too dangerous to have in the actual Hell city. I calmly collected my thoughts and agreed. I had nothing to lose. I wanted to put an end to this madness. The flames rose even higher and before I knew it, they were hurling towards me."Complete
