A cloaked man walked in through the doorway and looked around the house. His soulless eyes sought out for only one thing.
"Can I help you?" A sweet voice chimed.
He turned to her but didn't offer a reply.
And then he saw it.
A slow smirk crept on his lips.
The slab of metal just lay there, immobile and on show for everyone to see. His slithery voice hissed out a question and a compliment about the stone embedded in it and its owner which made the woman blush.
And then he was gone.
Later that night, the woman told her husband about the strange man and his piqued interest in the stone. The man froze midway, carrying his crying daughter in his arms. His eyes shone with fear.
"It's happening," he whispered anxiously.
"But, it can't be!" the woman cried, instantly knowing what he was talking about. "That was over a 100 years ago!"
"It's starting again," he said and right at that moment, the window shattered.

The Dark Lord's Kiss for the Pure Virgin Girl! 🦇🖤
Lara, in this magical and enchanting world, nothing is a lie! So believe in fairy tales. This was the phrase my mother whispered to me every night with her gentle voice. When she read the story of "Jack and the Beanstalk," I would always curiously ask: • But why don't I have a magic bean that can take me wherever I want? She would smile kindly and keep hope alive in my heart. We all believed in magic and wizards as children, fairy tales, and Little Red Riding Hood!

However, the bitterness of the world ensnared me in its grip. Just when I was only nine years old, I became acquainted with the bitter reality of life; when the snowy night arrived! I had never seen snow so terrifying and ugly. Because my mother was in bed, coughing up blood and taking her last breaths. A tiny bit of white snow had fallen from my woolen boots onto the ground, and when her hand hung limp, droplets of blood dripped from her fingers onto the snow, turning it red.

Surviving As A Vampire (Raya Book 2)
Because finding out she was a witch wasn't good enough, Raya now finds herself turned into a forbidden witch-vampire hybrid. What else is a girl to do but figure out how to stay hidden from an unknown society whom strongly disapproves of what she's become. A society willing to do anything to exterminate this accidental problem before she becomes too powerful. Colton let out a groan and unleashed his tongue to explore the cavern of Raya's mouth. His tongue successfully coaxing hers to come play. Raya began rocking on his lap as she kissed him back with just as much need as he felt. One of her hands reached up from behind his head and grasped the longer hairs on the top of his over grown military cut. The other was slipping its way down the front of his chest. He let his hands hold onto her hips as she rocked slowly in his lap. Colton's fingers dug in as he pulled her down to rub harder against him. This time Raya growled. As if she knew how desperately he needed her, Raya used both her hands to try and unbutton his khaki shorts. Colton hoped she would make quick work of undressing him, and let loose her hips to start on undressing her. He vaguely knew that he didn't want their kiss to end, so he didn't bother with her shirt, and instead found the button and tiny zipper on her shorts. Someone, somewhere cleared their throat. Colton heard it, and knew that he should stop, and acknowledge the other person in the room. He knew it, but manners be damned, he needed to finally feel this soft, strong willed, very magical, exceedingly beautiful woman wrapped around him. He needed her so badly, he didn't care if it was his own mother that was watching them.Complete

Veils and Prophecy: The Seal That Binds
Before the Veil There are realms layered atop the world of humans-hidden not by distance, but by the thinnest breath between heartbeat and shadow. The witches call it The Between. The fae's name it The Undone Thread. Others speak only in hushed riddles and dream-echoes, of a place where time folds, where the dead whisper, and where magic sleeps with one eye open. No mortal crosses the veil by chance. Or so the old songs say. But what if someone did? What if a mortal slipped through, unknowing, unprepared,...believing it was an accident, when in truth it was a summon? Not a summoning by will or spell or reason... But something older. A summoning born of yearning-two hearts aching across distance and destiny, one calling and the other answering. They say a prophecy begins with words. But sometimes, it begins with silence. With the quiet breath before a name is spoken. With a pull in the chest that feels like longing and fate braided together. So when the veil opened, it did not roar. It sighed. And through that sigh, something ancient stirred. A forgotten seal trembled. And the world-both the one of men and the one beyond-shifted. Not because fate demanded it. But because love did. And when one heart calls and the other answers. A binding seal will lock in place until the fate's complete.Complete
The Witchline
A generation of witches emerged in a world where two factions, the Druids and the Witches, held power over the Earth and its elements. Gifted with the ability to harness the powers of Light and Dark, they dedicated themselves to honoring the Goddess Mother and the natural world. They celebrated life, abundance, and the cycles of nature through festivals and rituals. The Goddess Mother blessed two witches with extraordinary power, one with Light and the other with Dark, and bestowed upon them a book containing all the spells necessary to honor her. With this book, they could even cheat death itself. However, they were forbidden from using their powers for evil. Meanwhile, the Druids delved into the dark side of nature, making pacts with gods of the afterlife who demanded blood sacrifices. The Elder Druid, consumed by envy, plotted to steal the witches' power. Spreading lies about their wickedness to mortals, the Druids convinced them that only witch burnings could lift the curse. The Elder Druid's greed knew no bounds, and he sought the Goddess's book, whispering more falsehoods about the witches. Fear gripped the land, and countless innocent men and women were burned at the stake until the witch hunts finally ceased in the late 17th century. The two High Strega, the last of their kind, devised a plan to protect their magic and revive the Witchline. The Goddess revealed a prophecy: when a daughter of Dark and a son of Light possessed the book, the Witchline would be restored. They separated, hiding their true power and passing the book from one High Strega to another across generations. Until now...Complete
