Tempting Darkness [17+] ✔
Copyrighted 2020 **Book 1 in the Darkness Series!** **Completed!** *Under construction* There was a creature locked away miles beneath the stone streets of Deshua, Oregon. A monster with the body of a man, jet black eyes of a soulless demon, and even darker feather wings cascading from its back. Those foolish enough to believe its unnatural, ethereal beauty would call it a fallen angel. The immortals who inhabited the town knew better. They knew to call it daemonium-demon. Forced asleep by a council who believed in the greater good, many revered the monster. Yet the town's eternal population was torn in two. Half awaited the day for the foretold cursed soul to come and resurrect their lord and the other half feared it just as much. And guess who got to be that lucky bitch. *No love triangle* -&- **WARNING** This book WILL have mature, adult content! Please be aware of this before reading.

The blue ultimatum (ultimate leveling)
In a world where power hides behind science and divinity bleeds into lightning, a child was born from an impossible fusion of cosmic energy and human life. His name was Eli Christ, son of a global industrialist and a woman whose prayers for a child echoed into heaven-and into something else. But when a family friend, Dr. Xavier Letterson, discovered the strange phenomena surrounding Eli's birth, his obsession turned to betrayal. Under the guise of research, Xavier orchestrated Eli's kidnapping, determined to uncover the truth behind the boy's otherworldly aura. The night they took him, gunfire tore through the dark-his parents fell, though Eli never knew they survived. Somewhere between fear and fury, something inside him awakened. The storm within broke loose. Every machine screamed, every light shattered, every man in the lab turned to ash. When it ended, only silence remained-and Eli's memory was gone. Years later, he would awaken in a quiet town, raised by strangers, haunted by dreams of thunder and fire. His past erased, his destiny hidden beneath ordinary skin. Somewhere out there, a girl exists-tied to him by forces neither can yet understand. She is his calm and his undoing, though neither knows why. And when the storms return, so will he. Eli Christ. Elthunderel. Alien Voltreon. A forgotten god in the body of a boy-destined to remember what the world tried to erase.
