SHORT STORY / 5000 Words
Kat knew the chance of success was near zero. Nobody had ever infiltrated the top-security prison deep in Colombian Territory. Even if she made it in, she still had to get the prisoner out of his cell. The only possible escape route was through a six-inch-wide drainage pipe.
Kat could make that trip - she was one of the precious few Africans who had the genetic compatibility to take the nanos which shifted her into cat form.
But Nash and his Navajo blood lent a different direction. To the Puma. And that was far too large.
What she was about to do was all but scientifically impossible. Unless every single moment went exactly right, they would both be trapped. Excruciatingly tortured. And then they would die.

Due to the strong sexual content and adult situations of the full series, this paranormal suspense short story is recommended for readers aged 17+. I always write books in series. This first book is free to let you try it out and see if you like the style and storyline. I release in stages so fans can read along as I write it, to offer feedback and suggestions! Many of my storylines are shaped by what readers are interested in seeing.
Some readers are too impatient to wait. They would rather binge-read. For the binge-readers out there, I always release the full set when the series is complete.
So read-as-I-write or binge-read-at-the-end, it is wholly up to you which way you enjoy my works!
This series is complete. All six individual episodes are now available for free in Kindle Unlimited. You can also get the full storyline in one book if you prefer that.
I'd love to hear from you at my website at OpheliaSikes.com.

The Wolf's Prey
[completed!] Under editing! Man kind, invincible and scared of nothing. We were the superior race, and we revelled in it. We all thought we were the ones at the top of the food chain, completely untouchable. However it was like I said, we 'thought' we were. In the darkness lurks a creature like no other, that prays upon us. Hunting us! Waiting for just the right moment to strike, to knock us off of our high pedestal and back onto the ground. I know this because I have seen this beast. Been face to face with it, battled toe to toe with this creature, fighting for what was left of my life, and I was losing! - - - - - - - - "Watch out!" I scream in alert, as a hard thudding sound pierced our ears as something slammed into our side of the car, sending a sensation of dizziness as the car spun of of control. The screeching tires dragged along the floor, with the faint stench of the irony liquid dripping from my head as it all grew still...Complete

Ayn's Healing
Ayn is a witch with healing powers. Shapeshifters have killed her parents and the only animals she cannot speak with are wolves. When she graduates from the Teaching Clan and finds out that she has to cross the River and live in the Wolves' Mountains for one year, she is less than amused. Kari, first-born shapeshifter Alpha, almost lost his wolf after the death of his mate. He could rise again and become the pack leader if only he would complete his training ...and find another suitable Luna. When he realizes that his second chance is his mother's guest, a daydreaming stubborn witch from across the River, he is less than amused. The bond may be a strong force, but can a witch walk the Wolves' Way and face the dangers it is paved with? **** "I need to stop..." I sigh, catching her wrist before her fingers reach the back of my neck, and I untangle her arm from me. She lingers on the recliner but now there is a big gap between our bodies. The warmth she left on my skin is quickly dissipating in the spring night. "Fine." Ayn stands and searches my eyes. Her scowl has my wolf whimper in submission and makes me curse my self-imposed hard line. "I am going to need your hoodie," she orders, stretching her hand out to me. "What?" I exclaim, briefly shocked by both the tone and the content of her words. My hands however are already executing her command, unzipping my jacket. "The last time I was able to sleep, I was covered with your hoodie. Your scent is comforting." She states it plainly as if it would be an obvious and broadly known fact. Like the Earth being round. Like two being a prime number. #1 in Healer - December 2021 #7 in Lycan - December 2022 ~95 000 words Cover photo by Jr Korpa via Unsplash Cover photo by Marc-Olivier Jodoin via Unsplash hiComplete
Protecting the Wolf Prince
Aaliyah is werewolf army born and bred. She is from a long line of werewolves that live to protect their own. But one moment in her life altered her world forever. Suffering with grief, she did the unthinkable in their world and disobeyed a direct order from her superior officer, earning her a dishonourable discharge. Cast out by her father for shaming what he saw was the proud legacy of his line, she moved to the vampire world of Elm'nyth. When a messenger appears with a formal order from the king of her world, Aaliyah is given a second chance at redeeming herself, a chance at earning forgiveness from her father. Returning to the werewolf realm of Askara'velmanti at the height of full moon, Aaliyah happens upon one very fine young man and she spends the night with him, celebrating the tradition that they are accustomed to. She was used to not being what the males of the species saw as a worthy mate, having spent years being a full moon lover to someone and then to have nothing eventuate with them. Waking to an empty apartment the next morning was no surprise to her, she was used to it. Aayliah believed that she was destined to walk the land a lonely woman, never believing she deserved to find her mate. Consequences for actions is something that Aaliyah is used to. She disobeyed her superior officer, she was discharged from the army. She received a dishonourable discharge, her father disowned her. She left the werewolf realm for the vampire realm having little to do with her own world, she knew little of the changes that happened in her absence. She slept with an unknown man at full moon and will now pay the ultimate price for her actions. © These stories and works are copyrighted.

Rise of an Alpha Female #Wattys2016-Book 1
COMPLETED#61 in Werewolf on the 6th of October 2016. Her father has been grooming her to at least lead by his side since she was a little girl, and in time she has come to believe it is her right to rule. But most do not agree. She is only a woman. Meant for other things. Unfortunately, she is the only heir of the Alpha, and there has never been an Alpha Female in the pack's history. A trial by combat for the Alpha position is one option, but from the pack, only males are allowed to participate. There is danger in that process, however, because when a trial by combat for the Alpha position is held, enemy Alphas can also participate, giving them a chance to grab power, all the territory and willing members in a single victorious fight all the while leaving those unhappy with the new leadership with the only other option of exile, losing everything they have. What could she possibly hope to do to break the old, traditional way of how females are seen to be little more than wives and second line supporters of the males in the pack? Some say that if she finds a mate that becomes Alpha, making her a Luna would be an acceptable compromise, but for whom? And even then, what kind of male wolf would accept such a dominant female partner? Probably... none. Hello everyone! Thank you all for reading! This book is left only as a sample on Wattpad as it is published on Amazon and in one of their programs requiring exclusivity. Not all is lost though! Books 2 and 3 will be left on Wattpad as they are, meaning complete and continuing the story, and there is a recap at the beginning of Book 2 with what happened in the first book. Thanks again! You rock!Complete
