In an alternate reality, machines get their drive and power from steam and clockwork. Humans, on the other hand, are driven it seems, by magic. More accurately, their fear of it...
A shadow flitted above the dark forest floor, swooping swiftly from one branch to another. The figure glanced up at the moon. It was locked away in darkness tonight, mirroring the dark obscurity of the trees.
There was going to be blood tonight. That much was inevitable.
The wind screamed past the mysterious character as it approached the small town. The horror and realization slowly sank in that the wind was the only thing that had been screaming.

Empire Island, Exile the First
Kairos is the name, just your average magically gifted Guardian running from her problems... Years ago I walked away from my home, Empire Island, and turned my back on my sacred vow to protect its magic. I thought I could enjoy my freedom, but my past has caught up to me. The island is under threat from demon-possessed recruits destroying hallowed land and poisoning the Well Source of magic. I kicked their ass right away, only to discover the threat I never expected to face was behind it all. Demon King Uruk'Zu himself. To make matters worse, my younger sister has gone missing. Caught up in emotion, I kissed the man who has haunted my dreams for years. It was an innocent kiss, or so I thought. Turns out it was a bad idea. Very bad. With that one kiss we woke a centuries-old fated-mate spell that will curse my life if I deny it. I don't know how I'll fight these invaders, protect my island, find my sister, navigate family drama, destroy the Daemon King and handle this whole fated-mate hot-guy thing. I'd rather run away again, but if I fail, the thin veil of magic separating worlds will tear. Dark chaos will consume my island, everyone I love, and the entire world. No biggie, right? Now if only I could remember how to cast a spell...Complete

Struck (A Vampire Novel) ✔
[Completed] Elysia's life is turned upside-down when she's abducted by supernatural creatures with demonic eyes and threatening fangs. What's worse is she has no idea what it is they want from her, except that it has something to do with a side of her that she's never known. The chances of Elysia getting out alive are slim, but perhaps with a bit of luck and a lot of bravery she can escape with more than just her life. Excerpt: ''What trick is this?'' The creature asked, but it didn't sound like a vicious question. He sounded... confused. When I didn't answer, he appeared in front of me, snatching my face in his hand once more and growling. ''What is that on your back?'' ''I don't know,'' I blindly answered, but corrected myself quickly when his grip tightened dangerously, ''It's a birth mark, the doctors called it a... a Lichtenberg figure. My mother said I was born with it, I swear it, even though it's usually what happens when you survive being struck-'' ''-by lightning.''

Wolves At The Door
The city hums in the dead of night, a low, mechanical heartbeat that never stops. The streets are cracked, washed in neon and rain, and somewhere in the mess of it all is Elysia-slipping between the cracks, watching the world through the streaked glass of a bus window. She exists, nothing more. Drifting through the days, numb to the bruises that never quite fade, to the weight pressing in around her. The past is a locked door, buried under dust and silence. But doors don't stay shut forever. Something is shifting. The air feels heavier. Shadows stretch longer. And lately, she isn't as alone as she used to be. There's the man who lingers in the dark, his presence still and measured, like he's watching, waiting. Then there's the woman-who moves like the night itself, slipping in and out of her periphery, leaving behind a whisper of something just out of reach. They aren't normal. She knows that much. Sometimes she catches glimpses-eyes that reflect light like an animal's, movement too fluid, too unnatural. Sometimes she hears them when no one should be there at all. Two figures. Two ghosts. One walking too close, the other never close enough. And the wolves at the door aren't just knocking. They're waiting for her to open it.
Bleeding Shadows
It's been three hundred years since the emergence of a vampire virus. A virus which only affected unborn male babies. The world has come to accept that vampires are not super human monsters who crave human blood. They're more human like than monster. Only needing a little human blood occasionally. However, their bites possess an amazing healing ability. Not a bad trade off. Fast forward to current day and for the first time in history attacks on innocent people by vampires are starting to occur. After suffering one of these attacks, can Violet Charr find her place in her suddenly changing world or will she be pulled under by the darkness that has always slept below the surface of this seemingly perfect society?Complete
Frozen Fate
"You don't get to be angry with me," I snapped, shoving past him. But Silas moved faster. His hand caught my arm, yanking me back, and before I could even think to curse him, his mouth was on mine-furious, hard, uninvited. My back slammed into the wall, and I should've screamed, should've pushed him away, but all that rage between us burned too hot. The bond I didn't understand crackled under my skin like wildfire. My fingers curled into his shirt, pulling him closer before I even knew what I was doing. It wasn't soft. It wasn't sweet. It was teeth and breath and bruised lips. When he finally pulled away, his breath ragged against my cheek, I couldn't even look at him. Because the worst part? I wanted him to do it again. ----- Violet was never supposed to enter their world, let alone survive it. Claimed by a cursed hybrid alpha and trained to break the spell that binds him and his people, she becomes something far more dangerous: desired. As power awakens inside her and enemies close in, one thing becomes terrifyingly clear, he was never going to let her go.
