"The darkness was getting closer and closer and I was running out of hall, the only thing down this path was the wall where Talkin disappeared into. My running came to a halt when I slammed into hard, unrelenting stone. I started banging on the cold stonework praying it might give way under my tiny fists. I didn't stop until the gray stone turned red, my knuckles split from the pounding. I turned around hearing voices whispering as the darkness got closer. As if it was calling to me. I was waiting for the panic to turn into something more feral. But, instead, a strange calmness secured my body. It was as if my brain shut down completely, a foreign bewitchment pulling my knees to the ground and closing my eyes. Then I just sat on the smooth stone floor and waited...waited for the darkness to pull me into whatever lay beyond."

Raven Talkin has been under a spell for eighteen years. Many moons ago a witch and warlock stole her from her parents and spelled her to live a lie. Now that she has awakened Raven has to determine what her new reality is. She escapes from her captors and finds herself on a quest. Along the way, she meets her newfound friend, Fischer, and a mysterious dark-headed stranger. Together they must save the kingdoms of Khyvaria from the Elven King.

His Beloved Witch. (Editing ) by xshellyboox
9 parts Ongoing Mature
COMING SOON SNEEAK PEAK. ESME "Darling," a voice purred while my mouth parted in awe. His hands glided against my skin making every where they touch burn with desire. My hands rushed to myself but a hand immediately grabbed it. His voice groaned disagreement while he pinned my hands above my head. "Love, patience is key," his velvety voice muttered into my ear. "But-" I began but immediately was interrupted by his hands making their way between my thighs. His finger grazes against my soaked underwear, teasing me while his blood-red eyes stared down at my withered expression. My mouth opened to beg him to touch, to pleasure me, to take me. "Lu-" just as am about to say the name the a man who's been taunting me, my eyes cast wide against my will as the sound of my alarm clock awakens me. No! I was so close to finding out his name! Night after night I keep having dreams about him yet I don't even know his name! Just that his eyes are red which can indicate that he's a creature, particularly a vampire. But witches and vampires rarely get romantically involved with each other. I sigh before hitting my head against my bed while staring frustratingly at the ceiling. My hands raised towards the birthmark on my neck, touching it just enough for me to get a small sensation. Who is he? And why do I always dream about him? _________ LUCIAN Lucian's mark burned making his eyebrows furrowed at the sudden sensation. "Sir?" his butler called as he turned his gaze over to him. It can't be. He dawned rubbing his skin at ease. He hadn't felt this sensation since 14 years ago. His beloved. His mate, he can sense her now. His mouth widens forming into a beautiful smile that shocked his butler. He hadn't seen his master smile in centuries. Not since- Which would only mean one thing. The queen is back. The woman who had shown their king how to love and care for others has returned. Queen Esmemina is back.
Enslaved to Icarus (The Pariah Book 1) by shaziyakhanwrites
6 parts Ongoing
"The curse entailed that only the blood that sought yours, can free you of the curse, until then you shall be asleep." Icarus smirked at her words, he knew where this was going as she continued, "Because your blood is-" "Poisonous and repulsive." She nodded. "So, it's unbelievable that she was the one whose blood sought yours, a human, but it did, or perhaps it was your blood that sought hers...," she mulled over it. "But it's wrong, against the natural-" she observed his gaze. Talking about some natural order of the universe was not something that would befit his ears, given that he was the very example of the abomination formed against the natural laws and order of the blood. ~~ No one knew who he was, or where he came from? But he did, and he conquered all the existing realms, hidden and not so hidden from the human world, and built his kingdom upon the ruins of his enemies. Yet, he remained a pariah. Always was. Always will be. He was Icarus. The Monster. The Legend. The Evil. The Pariah. ~~ Everyone knew her to be a scared little kitten. She looked like one too with her snowy white hair, cerulean blue eyes, and a questionable fate. ~~ What was supposed to be a ridiculous adventure, suggested by her equally ridiculous brave friend turned her life into a whirlwind of crazy and bloody, when she stumbled and accidentally awakened the sleeping, ravenous, and absolutely psychotic monster, Icarus. What made her the lucky woman to jostle him out of his centuries of sleep? As a thanks, she was rewarded with the title of being his most beloved SLAVE. Dive into their journey as we unravel their ribbons of fate, and immerse ourselves into their complicated relationship. ~~ This book is a dark fantasy romance novel and Icarus is an original fantasy character that I created. He is not a vampire or a werewolf but something entirely new and interesting.

Little taste of the book :)~~~Walking down several halls, I finally come to the metal door of the dungeons. Walking through, power flows off of me in waves of bone chilling darkness, all of those pathetic little prisoners cower away back into the corners of their cells like smart little rats, except two. "I will never bow to you ever again!" Yells Maya. "Neither will I!" Shouts Crystal Chuckling, "Well sooner or later, little heirs. You will bow to me. It may not be today, possibly not even tomorrow, but you never know. My methods are extremely effective. Especially when it comes to such...breakable little participants. I'm sure you'll both be more than willing." I give them a toothy grin, oh how I can't wait to hear their screams, the cracking of their bones, the dripping of their blood as they submit and remember who is truly in charge of this world. Of them. "I WILL NEVER BOW TO YOU! YOU SICK BASTARD! LOOK WHAT YOU DID TO YOUR OWN BROTHER! HE'S ON HIS DEATHBED! RIGHT AS WE SPEAK! WE'VE ESCAPED YOUR MEN AND WE CAN DO IT AGAIN!"

There are worse things than death. ___ "What is wrong with you?" I seethed. She had my back against the wall, pinning me down so I couldn't move. She was much stronger than me, even when I used my strength to get out of her embrace. I held her gaze and I knew that she was gone. There wasn't an ounce of goodness left in her body. She laughed at my question. Of course, I knew what was wrong with her. But I have to find a way to get her back. "What is wrong with me? Ha, nothing sweetheart." she told me with a smile on her face. "I'm just having a little fun." "Yeah, and fun for you is killing innocents," I growled. "Oh, I hate to say this to you but they aren't all innocent." I finally broke free of her and I dropped her to the floor. I held her down with both arms while I was on top of her. All she did was give me a smile. An eerie smile that made a shiver run down my spine. "I should kill you for what you've done," I whispered. "I should make you pay." "Oh, but Sebastian, you won't," she said. "You know why? Because at the end of the day I'm still me, and you will never hurt me, will you?" I hated that she was right. I couldn't kill her. My mind told me that it would be the best to do it but my heart told me otherwise. I mentally cursed at myself for letting this happen to her. "Elora, I know you're still in there." I said. She was still on the ground, but she was not resisting which seemed odd. "She died a long time ago," she said finally. "Alongside her love for you." ___ Book Two in the "From Death to Life" Trilogy #13 in Bloodlust

"Who's out there?" One of the men yelled. Of course only silence met them. I remained quiet and waited for the group to start moving again. "Maybe it was just an animal." Someone whispered. The person, who I assumed was the captain of the small squad, signaled for them to walk again. They clearly showed fear as they kept going; brandishing their weapons to guard themselves with. "Two are holding lanterns. I'll tell you when you're too close to them." I heard my friend whisper in my ear. I followed the men as I picked up another branch and waited for the right time to break it. They continued to walk through the forest, turning their heads in every direction as if an animal might lunge at them and rip their throats out. I guess in a way I was going to do that. "Go back a few feet." My friend whispered. I carefully distanced myself from the group and waited. "Where is she?" I quickly snapped the stick as soon as he finished asking the question. They stopped and two soldiers raised their lanterns to shine its light in the darkness. I quickly hid behind a tree before both of them turned where I was. A low frustrated growl came from one of the men, "The girl's playing with us. She's out here following our every move." How paranoia can cloud the mind. At nine years old, Silver decided to leave her village for the forest. Since then, she's been hunted; everyday is a fight for her life, every breath she takes could be her last, but she's determined to stay alive. Her life isn't the kind anyone would want to live but she's managed to survive this long so, what's a few more years?

WARNING: this book includes blood, manipulation, cursing, and mature topics (not smut please don't think that). Feel free to click off if any of these make you uncomfortable. ~•~ Something about it was so mysterious about this cave, and I wanted to know more. I entered the cave and saw a red crystal sealed in ice. "Woah." I whispered. The crystal glowed and the ice shattered. I jumped back and fell to the ground, watching as the ice broke completely. My eyes widened and I looked at my hands. "Did I do that?" I asked, but before I could answer, I heard a guard shout for backup as they had heard the ice shattering. I quickly jumped up and stashed the crystal in my pocket before leaving. I crept to the cave the following day, putting the crystal back into the remains of the ice pillar. As I walked away, the crystal fell, causing it to break into a million pieces. I jumped at the sudden noise and stumbled backwards, my eyes widening as a black smog formed around the crystal. "No, no, no, no! Frick." I desperately tried to grab the remains of the crystal, causing one to cut my hand. "Ow! Shit." I whispered, looking at my bleeding hand. "Tch, tch, tch, poor child." A demonic voice said. I looked up and saw that the black smog had two red eyes and a wide, sick smile that was dripping with venom. "I- who are you?" I asked, backing up. "The one who can help you out of here." It said, stretching out a hand. I looked it up and down and before I could answer, its hand plunged into my heart, causing me to scream out in pain.
