The early morning chill runs down your spine as you shift your feet a little in wait for your prey to appear. A fat rabbit would happy addition in your family's meager table. Hunger gnaws at your empty stomach. You flex your numb fingers so they freeze up when the time comes to fire your old bow. Your eyes peer into the thin mist that still clings to the forest floor, desperately searching for a sign of movement.
The faint crunch of autumn leaves manages to catch your ear. The distinct shape of a boar peers through the mist. Even better. Carefully you slow your breathing, adjust your aim like your father taught you and with steady hands, you ready to release the taut bowstring. But then more smaller shapes enter the picture, piglets.

The Rogue King {18+} (Book 2)
[COMPLETED] I was cursed at such a young age, abandoned by my own wolf and the Moon Goddess for something that wasn't in my control. I don't even think having a mate is in the cards for me... ✨🌘✨ I jumped when the final horn sounded, circling the garden before everyone became silent. They all returned to their seats, my father rising from his chair as I stood from my seat along with the other pups. I struggled to breath as we took our position, standing in the centre away from everyone else. My father offered me a reassuring glance though it did nothing to ease my anxiety, all I had to do now was wait. My eyes widened when the moons blue light shined down on me, illuminating my skin as I stared up at the sky in awe. "We thank the moon goddess for the power of her light..." I dropped my gaze back down, my fathers words surrounding us, "...Shall it bathe you and grant you strength, agility, speed like the wolf..." The pups around me began to moan in pain, capturing my attention as I furrowed my brows. Their features were all contorted by an invisible pain that inflicted them but I felt absolutely nothing. My heart raced when their groans of pain became screams but I- I suddenly drop to the ground, a painful throbbing in my head forcing me to the ground. I grip the sides of my head, screaming. I don't know how to explain it but it felt as though my brain was tearing in two, like my head was cracking open. When the pain stopped, I found myself surrounded by wolves, the shifted pups. Looking down at myself, I only see my body, no paws and no fur. I hadn't shifted... ✨🌕✨ Book 2* 'The Wolven King' is the first book and must be read in order to understand this one. ⚠️ WARNING!! This book is mature and should only be read if you are 18+. There are depictions of violence, mature language, sexual behaviour and sexual abuse.Complete
Hunger
Hunger. His stomach ached with pure hunger. His lips bled. His hands were nearly frozen shut by the freezing air around him. He couldn't move them if he tried. He could smell blood. Fresh circulating blood. The booze that had stained his breath had done little to numb the agony that tore at his lungs. The snow around him had reached his knees and its soaking-wet weight clung to his trousers like chains. His mind felt dreary, filled with a dull roar as he trenched closer and closer to the raw scent, closer to the pinprick of light that shone against the thick forest trees. It swam a little in front of him through tear-soaked eyes and he fought the urge to cough from his cotton-dry mouth. He licked at his cracked lips and continued to stumble through the snow. He couldn't feast, not tonight. But he could possibly find a distraction or two. A very delicious distraction.Complete
Cerberus Rex, Nameless
In the woods south of the capital, a man born of magic wakes after a long sleep to experience his first taste of tragedy. Broken by the loss of one who cared for him, he becomes a monster he's never transformed into before. When he wakes up, a small rabbit-girl who calls herself a beast-bunny and a young man that smells of fear have cleaned the blood from his hands. Others' blood. But when he leaves them to mourn his caretaker and cope with the lives he has taken, he is shown the truth of his being. As a guardian called a Stag, he must venture into the world and make it better, but he will need to find the ones who helped him first. The nameless one has never ventured outside of the woods before and, in his attempt to locate those he searches for, is arrested. It seems the capital believes them to be murderers, and if not for the intervention of a captain who knows what he is, Nameless might have failed his quest before beginning it. By the help of a demon, he reunites with those who cared for him in the woods, and he starts the seemingly impossible task of discovering what exactly happened to turn his companions into criminals and save them if he can. If he cannot, he will have lost his first friends and the only ones he has come to trust to help him save their lands' magic and heal the world he finds falling apart all around him.Complete![The Guardians of the Woods [#JustWriteIt]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/83460393-256-k602463.jpg)
The Guardians of the Woods [#JustWriteIt]
NOTE: This is my very first book on Wattpad! I have (probably) improved since then, so don't base your judgement on me by this book! Every generation, 6 animals with enhanced abilities are born with the destiny of becoming a Guardian of the Woods. A deer, a bear, a wolf, a fox, an owl, and a rabbit. Once a Guardian dies, it reincarnates into an animal born from the same species. However, no Guardians have been born for the last decade. Because of this, the Demons of Furor have taken over and corrupted over half of the forest, and now no one can be trusted. There have been numerous hoaxes of new Guardians being born, but a new fawn might be just what everyone's been looking for. Cover was made in Canva Cover photo by from PixabayComplete

My Son's Best Friend
Intro I needed to forget, I needed to feel wanted, at least just for that night and I did. He was young and handsome with muscles so defined his massive biceps bulged from the seams of his shirt. It was a night of pure pleasure with no names exchanged while I held nothing back letting myself enjoy him as he handled me roughly with skill. When morning came I left without a trace thinking I would never see him again but to my surprise I couldn't have been more wrong. ..... "Mom this is my friend Jayce," Tyler my son announced entering through the front door. I turned a pale sheet of white when I saw who came walking up behind him. Oh god what did I do?! I looked down at the floor waiting to see it crack because I was sure any second it was going to break open and suck me down to hell for what I had just done. Heartbroken looking for a way to escape, Mia has a one night stand with a stranger to take away the pain if only temporarily but what happens when that one night stand (and the best sex of her life) ends up being her son's new best friend? A/N The characters in this story are all adults over the age of 20. This is not some Mrs. Robinson type of story where an older woman seduces a teenager. FYI : This is my first finished story and not one of my greatest. I just republished it and it has a lot of old notes from when it was first published so please ignore those.Complete
