A young noblewoman forced into a marriage she doesn't want.
A forest-dweller on the brink of death.
An acolyte of Luana preparing to be a priestess.
The boy hunter who will do anything to protect his family.
These are a few of the characters in my novel - White Rose. In this short story anthology, you'll read their backstories and learn more about the kingdoms of Cresin, Oxare, and the Dravian Islands. The kingdoms may be at peace - but that doesn't mean all is perfect in their world and the deities oversee all.
All short stories were originally published on my blog: emilyhornburg.com

A Vampire's Life Book 6
Ariella doesn't want to love a human, they have ruined her world, tried to steal from her, taken those she loved away from her and made her life difficult on a regular basis. Rogues still roam the planet, avoiding detection and hounding the family property with constant attacks. One little prophecy keeps the Mordecai family in the rogues sights, continuing their efforts to return control of the planet to the humans. Ariella doesn't want to love a dark being either. They too have ruined her world, lying and cheating on her. Some of those men from her past can be ignored, avoided by choice. But there are some that she can not avoid. There is one from her past that she wished she never had to look at again. He might be her past but he is her present too, creating inner turmoil for Ariella. Social functions and elder meetings have always been hell for Ariella, having to face the one man she wished she could plunge a stake into. Lucian Eliade Leonte. As the son of the ruler of the realm, her former boyfriend is always going to be a part of her social circle, always going to be a part of her life. In her eighty-five years of life, all Ariella has ever wanted was to be loved by someone who would do the right thing by her. But the men that had entered her life had taken a knife to her world, twisting it in her heart and causing grief. Sworn off all men, she now lives her love life through her feeding. Never exposing herself, never letting her guard down. Her frozen heart is rock hard, never to be broken. At least, that was what she hoped. One slave bought for duties at her family residence will change how Ariella lives her life. Can the slave break through the facade of a domineering, cold hearted woman to be the love of her life? Or will he be like all the men before him, becoming a liar and a thief? © This story is copyrighted no part may be reproduced by any process nor may any other exclusive right be exercised without the permission of xMishx 2013/14Zakończone
A White Rose (Spellbound Novelette)
Ereptus never wanted to be responsible for anyone but himself, so when an old friend asks him to escort a special young girl to safety he's less than pleased about the idea. The girl isn't too keen herself, finding the handsome thief untrustworthy. Together they have to make their way across the kingdoms to Messina, putting aside their differences, and realising that all is not as it may seem at first glance. A WHITE ROSE is a novelette, a re-write of an older story of mine, and as such maybe not quite up to my usual standards. But I still really enjoy the characters, and they will be appearing in other stories in the SPELLBOUND universe. - 1st Place Mono Awards (Short Story) - 1st Place Royalty Awards (Short Story)Zakończone

Mercy & Fire
Adrenaline pumped in my veins as I pressed myself against the large tree trunk, hoping the darkness would conceal me from my impending doom. My heart hammered against my ribs and cold sweat gathered at my palms and chest. His armor clanked and clinked, scraping against itself as he grew closer and closer... Then silence. "Come out little rabbit." The voice was deep and menacing, and I would've soiled myself right there if I were any younger. I couldn't see very well, but I could see what little moonlight that filtered through the trees reflected off a pale face. His gaze was like a hungry, crazed wolf hunting its prey. "Found you." *** Roselena is satisfied with helping her father run his printing business in her childhood village, but in the face of kingdom rising against kingdom, she finds herself thrown into a world of political tensions, magical beings, and the plot of a God. She struggles to define who she is, what she believes, and who she can trust. Worst of all, she seems to have been snared by a cruel King who can't seem to leave her alone. In a world going up in flames, Roselena can only hope to find mercy amongst the burning fire. Warning: Themes of SA, religion, human sacrifice, gore, and some explicit language.
