A woman runs from everything.
A songbird joins her from nowhere, singing colors and images.
A whisperer finds the pair among a field of poplars and graves.
A dark and vicious viper stalks them from deep in the earth.
They must flee from the Viper, at any cost. They must reach their safe haven--Aeolia.
On the way there, the woman and bird pass strange and foreign places--including the Bridge to Infinity, where they are blessed by the Mist; Canvas Valley, where they walk along Aeolian train tracks; Seasons' Spiral, where the seasons fight on an open savanna; Dreams' Lattice, home to a grand tamperer; and many more.
Along the way, new creatures help the woman and bird. But every time the Viper comes close, they choose to run--until at last they can't any longer.
They must fight or die.

Kidnapped by traders, she is taken to the seas and sold under the pretense of being a contract cook.

Rather than waste their money, the trappers decide to use Leila as bait to lure out bears and other large predators to be killed and sold. Leila is full of fury at her circumstances only to become too sick to fight back anymore. To get one last use out of Leila before she succumbs to her sickness, the trappers tie her to a tree to lure out The Beast also killing in those woods.

Aengus O'Sullivan is a world-famous tattoo artist who fled Chicago after his stalker was shot in self defense. In Valsgard, he thought he'd found peace. Then the dreams started - visions of a wounded woman calling his name. When that woman appears in his studio seeking work, he's convinced fate brought her to him. What starts as protectiveness quickly spirals into dangerous obsession as he uses his influence to control every aspect of her life. But Fiadh is caught between two supernatural stalkers. While Aengus claims her waking hours, Cian Mor, the man with no mouth - a mute cult member who's hunted her across states - has found her in her dreams.

The Story of Midnight
"Who's out there?" One of the men yelled. Of course only silence met them. I remained quiet and waited for the group to start moving again. "Maybe it was just an animal." Someone whispered. The person, who I assumed was the captain of the small squad, signaled for them to walk again. They clearly showed fear as they kept going; brandishing their weapons to guard themselves with. "Two are holding lanterns. I'll tell you when you're too close to them." I heard my friend whisper in my ear. I followed the men as I picked up another branch and waited for the right time to break it. They continued to walk through the forest, turning their heads in every direction as if an animal might lunge at them and rip their throats out. I guess in a way I was going to do that. "Go back a few feet." My friend whispered. I carefully distanced myself from the group and waited. "Where is she?" I quickly snapped the stick as soon as he finished asking the question. They stopped and two soldiers raised their lanterns to shine its light in the darkness. I quickly hid behind a tree before both of them turned where I was. A low frustrated growl came from one of the men, "The girl's playing with us. She's out here following our every move." How paranoia can cloud the mind. At nine years old, Silver decided to leave her village for the forest. Since then, she's been hunted; everyday is a fight for her life, every breath she takes could be her last, but she's determined to stay alive. Her life isn't the kind anyone would want to live but she's managed to survive this long so, what's a few more years?Complete
Stranger Hearts: Part II - Shadows Return
It's the week before Evelyn Byers' high school graduation, and for once, things seem normal. Her leg is nearly healed, the nightmares have gone quiet, and Steve Harrington is still hers - loyal, loving, and all-in. To celebrate surviving the chaos of Hawkins, Steve surprises Evelyn with a spontaneous mini-vacation to the Oregon Coast. It's foggy, peaceful, and nothing like Indiana. They walk along the beach barefoot, eat greasy diner food, and pretend-just for a little while-that monsters don't exist. But Evelyn can't shake the feeling. She wakes up with bruises she can't explain. Her reflection lingers too long in mirrors. The air feels charged, like before a storm-and sometimes, when she's alone, she hears it again. That low, inhuman growl echoing from somewhere inside her. Back in Hawkins, Will gets a "blip" on a device they swore they wouldn't need again. The Mind Flayer may not have been destroyed. It may have been waiting. And Evelyn might still be connected to it in ways none of them understand. As Evelyn faces the terrifying possibility that her mind-and body-are not her own, she must make a choice: come clean to the group and risk being locked away again, or try to stop it herself before graduation... before it's too late. Because if the Mind Flayer truly survived... it's not just coming back. It's coming for her.Complete
TOTAL Compatibility (Preview)
Behind the Barrier, Jillian's life is tidy enough: follow orders, keep the illusion of peace intact-and, in theory, fix her personal life, which remains an ongoing disaster. That is, until things stop making sense-and she starts recognizing faces she's never met. Her job? Eliminate the creatures that slip through from the Astral. Easy enough-until one of them, a charming bastard who calls himself a Wishmaster, starts slipping into her dreams and peeling back her defenses like he's done it before. Maybe he has. Then there's her new partner: engineered by OptiMate to be her perfect match, tailored to her needs with unsettling precision, and wearing a face that feels just a little too familiar. And maybe that's not a coincidence either. As reality unravels and memories begin surfacing in all the wrong places, Jillian starts to wonder if the real threat isn't what lurks beyond the Barrier-but what's already rewriting her from the inside. A blend of sharp-edged romance, warped memory, and twisted magic-for readers who love stories where love feels wrong, the past refuses to stay buried, and the truth hits like a sucker punch.
