Sly Cooper has made a wonderful life for himself. He has the love of his life - the fiery Carmelita Fox - at his side (even if his amnesia is a ruse for her attentions). He has a swanky Paris apartment, and manages to successfully pilfer some takeout each Friday night for their regular evening-in. But all of that changes when awakes one night to a terrible scream.

************************************************************************************** An outcast rogue must break a curse put on his fate, or die on his nineteenth birthday. To survive, he'll need the sword of a maiden, the aid of an immortal, and the power of forbidden magic that could cost him the only girl he ever loved. ************************************************************************************ *** THE JACK OF SOULS won a Silver IPPY this year! *** THE JACK OF SOULS won 1st place in the PNWA Competition in Fantasy! * *** THE JACK OF SOULS won 1st place in the Southwest Writers competition! * *** A "Featured Book" on Wattpad! * *** Now a "Staff Pick" on Kickstarter! * *** Available on Amazon in paper, hardback, and ebook ! * *** My contract with Kindle Select won't allow me to post more than 3 chapters here, but... *** Sign up for my newsletter on stephenmerlino.com for alerts when it's free on Amazon! * MY INSPIRATION I wrote this out of pure love of trickster rogues; I love the wit over brawn motif -- Odysseus over Achilles, Raven over Eagle -- so I like to play with it in my stories. In JOS I set the rogue and con-artist Harric against a foil of warriors in a land threatened by magic and civil war. Whenever possible I turn familiar tropes on their heads: instead of a handsome young Lancelot, I cast a broken-down ex-champion addicted to pain-killing herbs; instead of a dashing Squire Brian, the old knight reluctantly takes an ambitious young woman as squire. Similarly, I re-imagine the standard medieval milieu by infusing aspects of two of my favorite historical periods, Elizabethan England, and The American Frontier. Both eras boast a kind of nationalistic arrogance that borders on hubris, and a magnificent spirit of resourcefulness and re-invention that is fun to play with. SERIES The Jack of Souls is first in a series. I am posting parts of the sequel here now (The Knave of Souls), to help me refine the story.

*WARNING: RATED MATURE DUE TO LANGUAGE/SEXUAL CONTENT. READERS MUST BE 17+* *CANNOT be read without reading prior novels in series* Wolfe Emerson is notorious for two things: being an absolute beast in a boxing ring and being a voluntary mute. His story remains unspoken and he prefers to live his life in silence. That is, until, his world is turned upside down when he meets someone who is louder than life. The complete opposite of him with her outspoken personality, Wolfe can't decide if this woman gets on his nerves or makes him feel things he's never felt before. The scariest part? For the first time in his life, he wants someone to know who he truly is and see him. Hear him. But will he be able to fight for her in silence, or will he finally have to speak up? Melanie "Lenny" Parks is notorious for one thing: being a total badass. At least, that's what she wants everyone to think. Her past is a deeply buried secret and she's more than happy to mask her pain behind tough scowls and cold smirks. That is, until, she meets a man who literally bulldozes into her life. This beast of a man seems to have his eyes set on her and what she's clearly hiding from the rest of the world. The kicker of it all? He doesn't speak. Yet he makes her want to fill in the unspoken blanks between them and finally show someone the real her. But does she even know who the real her is anymore, or has she been silenced for good?

A Thief's Honor [Book 2] by tater_t0t3
37 parts Complete Mature
One gang, one vault, and an epic adventure filled with romance, action, adventure, drama, and heartache. Rae Vixen returns as her, Sly, and Bentley try to bring an old friend back and expand their gang in order to pull the heist of the century. They are trying to get into the Cooper/Vixen Vault, located on Kaine Island, and the owner is a spiteful mandrill by the name of Dr. M, who has spent years trying to get into that vault, but hasn't had any success. However, when the next owners of the vault come onto his island with the key to open it, he wants to do everything he can to take their canes so that he can have whatever is inside all to himself. Rae and Sly though, aren't about to let that happen. So then, these two have to find an old friend and try to gather more members to pull this job off because this time, four members aren't going to be enough. Can the Cooper Gang find Murray and gather more teammates, or will this plan to get into that vault be doomed to fail from the very beginning? Disclaimer: I do not own Sly Cooper or its characters, only mine and any changes to game/story. Based on Sly 3: Honor Among Thieves. This is book 2, so read Black Rose to understand the story better. Does contain a bit of strong language, violence, offensive topics (if you've played the game), and possible sexual themes in the future. As always, viewer discretion is advised. Also, as for the Guru's speech pattern, I'm literally guessing, but I'll do the best I can to make some strange words for him, so bare with me, not that any of us know what he's saying to begin with.

IF YOU HAVE NOT READ ASSASSIN'S CREED CHRONOS GO DO THAT IT'S THE PREQUEL: https://www.wattpad.com/story/31747666-assassin%27s-creed-chronos * Catherine thought she would live happily ever after with her family now that the Clock was destroyed and Rodrigo no longer a threat, but the Borgia are more tenacious and cruel than she realized. Her fight isn't over, but the odds are stacked against her. In a city ruled by the iron fist of their enemies, Catherine must face not only face the Templars, but also herself. EzioxOC My fans spoke, and I answered. Here is the sequel to Chronos. I didn't include this in the prequel due to the nature of this part of her life. Namely, because it doesn't involve the Clock. Not directly. This is a story about a young woman fighting to save her family. She's going to suffer some dark times, and it's going to challenge her relationship with Ezio in a very different way than before. As such, this story is going to involve some more mature themes. Some pretty dark scenes are going to happen or be alluded to, so here's your main warning. I'll try to warm ahead of chapters I feel may be particularly dark, but just know it's a darker tone over all (and also mature language). As usual, if you see any mistakes, please let me know! Editing is never 100% full proof, so I appreciate the help (sometimes my fingers/brain don't communicate well :() And don't be afraid to comment or share your opinion! I love hearing from y'all will do my best to reply to all your comments. :) Updates will be whenever I finish a new chapter, so hopefully on a weekly bases! Also, like with Chronos, I'll try to include more historically accurate events, which may involve skewing the game timeline. However, because this story is officially an alternate universe, I'm more willing to fudge things, but correct me if I get something that actually happened wrong! And with that all said, enjoy Assassin's Creed: Chronos_Retribution! -T.M.Wolf-
