This is an original story of mine! It's about a woman named Mara, she's a professional assassin, thief, and sorceress. She was fulfilling a contract when the victim requested another assassination. She sets out on the adventure to find her new victim and she hears stories of her victim. They foretell of a great demon that steal the souls of the innocent. As she grows closer to where the demon stays, the stories become more familiar. Little did she know, the demon had something to do with her long lost parents.

Red Moon Demon (book one)
Because sometimes you have to fight fire with hellfire, there's Caine Deathwalker: raised as a demon, armed like a gun merchant, and fuelled by booze. Nice is a dirty word and killing is what he does best. Make a contract with hell, and he could be on your side, God help you. Caine signs onto guarding the beautiful daughter of a leading Japanese industrialist. Protecting is harder than indiscriminate murder and mayhem, but gold is gold, and the prize of a mystic demon sword is dangled over his head as added incentive. Haruka will make an interesting bonus if he can get her out of her kimono-and the damn living zombies will leave them alone long enough for him to bang her. A powerful succubus is playing cat to Caine's mouse, but he has a cat of his own; a black leopard spirit beast from the Amazon jungle that's taken a liking to him-and his booze. And then there's his "father", an ancient Atlantean demon with a code of honor. Formidable back-up, but Caine senses a greater threat lurking in the shadows, something primal, hungry, and possibly more evil than himself. He shakes his head. Nah, couldn't be. This book is intended for mature audiences.Complete

But the reasons behind the kidnappings will prove to be the trigger that shatters the quiet life Alec has been living for the last decade.
