Sir Oswald Wealwright, pioneering industrialist and eligible bachelor, has never had any truck with occult nonsense or peasant superstitions. His manservant, abysmal poet and incorrigible daydreamer Johnny Burslem, thinks of little else.
Which is why, when a letter arrives sprouting moss and rust and demanding payment of an inexplicable debt, only one of the two men is prepared for the strange journey they must undertake.
There are things that lurk in the English countryside. And whatever your business may be, they have a thoroughly excellent understanding of how to make a deal.

The Trials
You were warned from a young age about the fair folk from your father, and that you should never make a deal with one-- no matter how dire your circumstances. But through a series of tragedies, you desperately made a deal with the fairy king himself for a second chance. On the fourth anniversary of the deal, he had come to collect his debt from you. In another moment of desperation, you once more made a plea with him for your freedom. The condition was that if you win his trials, you were free to leave but if you failed, you must stay in the fairy realm and wed him. With only your determination and skills, you must fight through each trial more treacherous than the last or be forever trapped. (Sequel to 'The Game').
Weaver's Knight ~ A Modern Fantasy Web Serial
Even after artist Alex Deleon found himself fighting an immortal for a woman he'd just met, he had no idea of the world – and life – that they were about to face together. Imbued with powers he'd only dreamed of and faced with nightmare conspiracies that surpass a fringe theorist's most paranoid delusions, Alex must learn how to confront what he's become and the reality he's faced with. He'd better do it fast, because those same conspiracies are after Sara Taylor – drifter, hero, witch, Weaver. Psychically wounded in a fight with a man even monsters fear, Sara retains an unparalleled power to conduct the forces of destiny, but little else. Together, they must find the strength to change her fate, and possibly, the world's. Because if they don't, a travesty among men waits in the shadows to make fate his own... ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ You can sign up for email alerts (http://peter-flanagan.com/majestic/list/), follow me on Twitter (http://twitter.com/PeterFlanagan9), Like my Facebook page (http://www.facebook.com/PeterFlanaganWriter), or follow Lorena on Tumblr (http://writerswife.tumblr.com/).

Eminence {Book 1 ✔️}
''Don't you remember, little flower?'' he asked, his voice low and melodic, ''Uneasy lies the head that wears a crown.'' ''Perhaps,'' I whispered, ''But Shakespeare was referring to a man...'' He cocked his head in confusion, his eyes growing darker. I leaned forward on the throne and brought my eyes up to meet his in an obvious challenge. ''Not a Queen.'' ~~~~~~ There's a whole side to Mara Monroe that's keeping her from what she was born to do. Coincidentally, it's her human side. Mara's always known that she couldn't choose what family she was born into. Even if it comes with a crown she doesn't want, age-old rivalries she doesn't understand, and a bodyguard she can't seem to shake. There are those that would die before seeing Mara on the throne. Or worse. Kill. *completed Book One*Terminé

Fayre
Melissa Crawford thinks she's just a regular teenage girl. She goes to school. She has friends, boy problems, homework...you know, the typical teenage angst. But she couldn't be more wrong, for Melissa Crawford is not a mortal. Her adoptive mortal mother refused to give her up and hired a witch to erase the enchanting Faery child's memory, not realizing that things aren't that simple. You see, when she was a little girl, Melissa promised herself forever to her Leannan Sidhe (mate), a Fae Prince, and a promise to Fae is sacred. When the Fae Prince comes back to claim what's his, nothing will get in his way. "Mortals are so arrogant. So utterly narcissistic to think that they are the only intelligence in this world, to believe their realm is the only realm, their way is the only way. "Many of you believe us fairies only exist in little kids' fairy tales. We are so much more than that. We exist, living in the Realm just a blink away from yours. A few wrong turns in the park or the forest and you're there. We sometimes walk among you, and you're not even aware of it. Believe me, we exist. Across the globe, your kind calls us and our realm by different names...but as William Shakespeare once said- a rose by any other name..."Terminé
Virulent Beauty ONC 2025
* Prompt 110: 20 days of freedom. Mod: 21 days. If the Stinking Corpse Lily had come from Scotland, the creature within it would have been named a member of the Unseelie Court. If from the Appalachians instead of Indonesia, it would have been called a Wendigo. And if it had come from the Mediterranean, perhaps it would have been a Dryad. But it's home had been dragged to a southern mansion on the Gulf Coast, to a people who thought the paranormal was a lie whispered by Satan to ears that wouldn't hear a sermon--even when a few of them knew better. But the Rafflesia arnoldii wasn't made for the subtropical swamplands of the coast, and needs nurturing to survive--and even more when it finally breaks free from it's bloom. The first line of defense is a young billionaire named Charles Bardot, a son of "the blood", and beyond him, his mother Cherish Claris. Neither of them is prepared to stand between humanity and a monster that refuses to fit the modern idea of rational. But if they don't, more people will fall to the creature that sees humans as their cattle.Terminé
Cardan & Jude oneshots
Rewriting scenes from the book but adding a little of my own special touch ✨ spice ✨ > +18 < The chapters are not connected to each other, they are individual stories. Depending on the chapter, BOTH Cardan and Jude and dom and sub. That's how I see their relationship. There are also some fluff chapters <3 Previous rankings: n1 for #thecruelprince n1 for #jurdan n1 for #thequeenofnothing n1 for #judeduarte n1 for #thewickedking n1 for #judeandcardan n1 for #locke n1 for #wickedking n1 for #thefolkoftheair n1 for #tarynduarte n1 for #nicasia n1 for #folkoftheair
The Broken Myth
There is an old myth about fairies. How they were destined to destroy our kind. The werwolf kind. Thankfully it's only a myth... Or so I thought. Is it true or is it false? Can reality be twisted into a fantasy that no one can escape? Who can you trust and who can you not? These are all questions Max needs to ask herself in order to survive the truth.Terminé
