The Weaver's Source
Lyra has been waiting for her Weaver to find her for years, unable to leave the safety of her home and only connected to him through passionate dreams - remembering nothing about him apart from his wild, sensual song. When the lone Weaver Grigore finally sweeps into her life, she finds herself instantly drawn to him, instantly recognising him as the man she had dreamt of for years. However, Lyra quickly runs into problems. Not only does he fail to recognise her but he's nothing like she imagined; cold, stubborn and determined to keep himself away from her. Rejected but determined to keep him safe as her magic whispers of his death, she follows him through danger and blood as he stalks his own hunt, desperate to shake the hooks that keeps pulling him back to her. First Volume of the Dark Folktales. This is a horror, erotic romance, with monster-of-the-week vibes, such as Buffy, Supernatural, Witcher, Claymore, and Van Helsing. (I'm a massive fan of the monster hunting genre.) Written from Sep 2011 until April 2014. This was the very first adult romance I'd written and has a plethora of problems. Despite this, I won't do further editing as I'm putting my efforts into a full re-write. Author's note - Please be mindful of what you're saying when commenting. I'm happy with helpful criticism, spelling/grammar pointers, questions or simple chatter. However, a tirade of needless, unhelpful complaints and just outright rude commentary is not welcome. My stories are terrible first drafts, they're going to be riddled with issues, so just politely highlight if you feel there's a problem. I'll listen and likely take on board the criticism. And if you're not enjoying it, that's fine, just move on and thank you for giving it a shot. The cover is my own art; sketched 2017.

In His Shadows | 18+
I flickered my eyes as I could not see properly due to all the strain and stress. I could not make sense of the situation. I felt a sudden tug at my feet as I tried to pull them, realising that they were tied by the rope. My hands were free but there was a feeling of numbness in them. It was all so overwhleming and sudden for me that I felt like drowning in an ocean, where I did not want to be saved. The truth was in front of me and I didn't want to believe it. Sitting on the throne like chair in front of me was the person I trusted the most. My protector, my bodyguard, and now my captor. . . . I watched her opening her eyes slowly, trying to take in all the sitauation at once. My poor little doll, so fragile, so naive and innocent for this dark and dirty world, who has no idea that after years of being raised and treated like a fragile princess, she was now a part of this world, and I could not wait to break her. As her protector and her bodyguard, it would give me a sick pleasure in taking and ruining her. In His Shadows |18+| A Drak Romace Thriller
