Alethea Latimer was a proud woman. She felt that she had accomplished quite a bit up to now since her family moved to England from Burgundy, France. She had gone through college, studied archaeology and earned her degree and eventually worked her way up to being one of the finest curators of the London Museum. Of course she did archaeological work as well, it being her main interest, and signed up for excavations when possible.
So when news of the possibly location of the Chalk Garden arose, she decided she just had to sign up. It may end up with her having to use her holiday time, but she felt that it would be worth it. There would be competitive adventurers, but Alethea felt like she had something that others didn't... and she was right.
Then the Heard showed up.
The first few attacks, they were all okay. But eventually, it just got too much for some of them and they left. Except Alethea. Maybe it was her only lack of belief in such things, or perhaps it was her own stubborn nature that refused to let her cave in. So she decided, she would continue on her own. She didn't think it was too impossible. Tricky and at the very least difficult? Perhaps. But it wasn't impossible. Yes, it was possible for her to get her work done without any trouble, whatsoever!
Then, she met Cyrus King.

The Fertility Mark (Book 1)
NOT EDITED VERSION. Delilah got a huge responsibility on her shoulders at the age of 17 when her parents died. The responsibility: her seven year old sister, Alice. They don't know exactly how their parents died. All they knew was that their car exploded, but their bodies were never found, even after the fire was put out. Delilah thought that her life was simple -well as simple as it gets with a seven year old in your life- but what she didn't know was that people were looking for her. For both her and her sister. The mark that they bore behind their neck symbolized something bigger than what they thought was a simple birth mark. It symbolized mate. But more importantly, it meant that they could bare a child with no fertility problems. On the vampire world, fertility is a big problem. It's been thousands of years since a female has birthed a child that has been capable of passing down the vampire gene without being bitten or cursed (the worst and most painful possible way ever) or both mother and infant dying. So finding a female with the mark is like finding your own personal treasure. When Delilah meets her hot new neighbor and finds out he's a werewolf -not just any werewolf but the most powerful Alpha King- will they be mates? Or will she be mates to one of the many vampires and help solve the thousand year old problem? Cover made by @bubblygummii Mark is supposed to be behind neck, so please don't judge the cover. I love it ❤️Completa

The Irish Queen (Complete)
She had spent her life trying to please everyone and fit in, but she was never meant for such an experience. She was born to stand out and be the wolf among sheep. When she was walked over again by the person she thought she would spend her life with ruling a country, the beast inside was awoken. She clawed her way up from the floor with a new fire in her eyes that no one could put out. Either you were on her side, by her side, or in her way. If you were in her way, you better start running because she was stepping on necks to get to the top. She would face the world on her own until someone was willing to stand by her side or have her back. She believed that person would never come for four years, but boy was she surprised when he did because he did not come quietly. He came bounding in and growled, "tell the wolves I'm home." The alpha female had finally been presented with an Alpha male that was at her level. She knew that it would be hard work to keep them together, but she knew there was no better team than two leaders taking on the world together. The real question was if the two could get past the damage left behind from their past relationships. Follow Angel and Stitch's journeys to each other to find out if they can take on the world together and get past the damage done by others.Completa
Markie
All werewolves have mates. So what happens when you fall for someone before you're 18... "Hopefully hes my mate" is all Markie can think as she waits for her 18th. This is a short story that takes place in the middle of "Orphan Wolf". It can be read independently but will have spoilers if you intend to read "Orphan Wolf"... I of course would suggest you read it and pause at the point I marked to read "Markie" but the choice is yours. Story excerpt "Come on Ryan leave me alone!" A boy yells. "You started it Francis... come on pup don't start that with me... I don't have time for this! GO HOME!" I felt the command. I see the little 8 year old boy from last night run away crying, one of Ruby's cousins. When I turn the corner I see a boy about 20 and am hit with an overpowering smell something like fresh cut wood and autumn leaves. It is amazing. I see the guy turn towards me and duck behind the house I am standing by before he sees me. Nope! Not him! Not happening! I hear footsteps coming towards me and run. Into the woods I find a pine tree. Perfect! Pine trees are great hiding places. The branches hide you visually and the smell masks your scent. I climb up as quickly as I can and watch the guy approaching. He circles my tree looking around but eventually gives up and goes back towards the houses. "Mate!" My wolf happily purs. "Not him!" I respond. "Denial." She says. "Refusal." I counter and she growls at me. "You will NOT reject him!" She orders. "He is a bully!" "He is mate!" "He commanded that kid when he could have just talked to him! He is a bully with no patience!" "He is an Alpha!" She purrs with pride at his rank. I don't care! "I don't want him!" "The one you want isn't mate. He isn't yours. He isn't interested... I want mate!" "No." I block her out and climb down the tree.Completa

I can't afford to have her blood on my hands." Gwen looked away, and he knew she saw the image that flashed in his mind. The slaughter. Bodies everywhere. The putrid stench of decay and metallic blood seeping through his fingers and staining the earth under his feet. The small, lifeless body in his hands whose death he couldn't prevent. And whose death he could never forget. "It won't be like that with her," she murmured to the floor. "I won't take that chance." Heavy with sorrow, her brown eyes looked up into his.

The Curse Of An Alpha *MATURE*
BOOK ONE OF THE CURSED SERIES "What's your name?" His voice was a delicate murmur in her ear. "Alice," she breathed, gasping as he nipped at her lobe. Their bodies swayed to the music, ignorant of the people around them. She was falling into the abyss of this man, of his seduction and thrall. Her stomach clenched involuntarily as he breathed her name in a throaty groan. "I like that," he murmured as he trailed his tongue down her neck, nipping at the skin at the base of her throat. Alice opened her eyes at the glaring flashing lights above them. She wanted him. Gods how she wanted him... "What's your name?" She dared to ask. Her throat was dry and parched from the heat, from the man that ground his pelvis into her ass... He chuckled, fingers trailing down her right thigh, "so responsive," he murmured as she moaned, gasping for cool air. * * * When Alice seeks out a popular club in hopes of curbing the misery that 'the one that should not be named' had caused, she most certainly didn't anticipate stumbling upon a man who would rock her world in a way that 'the one that should not be named' didn't. Nevermind the prospect of stumbling upon someone who was of another species entirely. Although, she tried to forget about that part. And let's be honest here, it's not exactly easy escaping an Alpha that claims to require Alice for his survival. But like her gramps had told her- "there's nothing like a good kick to the balls." Though, that didn't quite work in her favour a year down the line. How, do you wonder? Well, it's a damn long story to tell.Completa

"We can't!" I shout at him, as I push him away from me. "Why?" He says in a sensual voice. "Because we're rivals." I say as he walks up to me, pinning me against the wall of his office.
