Meanwhile, the recently dethroned Adelrik finds himself roaming around Europe, having been banished from his kingdom and scorned by his people. When these two young men find each other, what will happen when they hear of each other's hardships? Will they turn a blind eye and go their separate ways? Or will they find solace in the fact that they have only each other?

Gratia Vobis
A young cat, Persia, must travel across Italy to find her lost lover, Icarus, who she lost in the eruption of Mt. Vesuvius in 79AD. She has hope he's still alive, clinging onto a note he wrote her on their final night together, though when she finds him, things aren't exactly as they seem... Quick PSA: I wrote this story from start to finish in about a month and a half, during a very busy time. It's not perfect; this is basically a first draft and in my second draft I'll be tying up many plotholes and spending much more time on it, instead of just trying to write from A-B. However, given the time constraints, I'm really proud of this. Any feedback, good or bad is super helpful!Complete
The House of Memories
I don't know what to tell him. Of course he is dead, but it somehow seems rude to confirm that to him. He makes a movement as if he were sighing, which of course he can't, because he has no breath. "Then my suspicions were true," he says, staring at me with sad eyes. Lilly and I stay silent, staring at him with wide eyes. How can we be seeing him when we just buried him? When Roman's Grandfather dies, his entire family returns to The House of Memories to bury him and be done with it. Things don't go according to plane when Roman discovers he has an unusual ability to help the dead, just like his Grandfather. The first book in the Seeker Series introduces you to the world of the Living and the Dead; and how the Living could destroy the world forever. First four chapters available on Wattpad, check it out on Amazon for Kindle and Paperback to find out what happens! Book 2, The City of Broken Hearts, is now available on Wattpad! Updates weekly!

Seducing the Roman father
"Shhh I know you want me too. I can see it in your eyes. And you wearing all those tight office dresses didn't help at all." He connected his lips to her neck, sucking onto it. She let out a moan, her legs barely holding her up. She couldn't resist anymore so she pulled his head from her neck and connected her lips to his in a hungry kiss. "Oh God knows how long have wanted this." He said through their kiss. "You look sexy in that lingerie. But sorry I want it off." She lifted her hands allowing him to take her nightie off. "Damn baby, those breasts have grown so huge.

"Almost Green"
Strands of your mind cling together like web to a slippery leaf bathed in the morning dew. You have seen both heaven and hell, witnessed the atrocities of war firsthand, and imagined a better life in the deepest, most intimate corners of your dreaming spirit. The wishes for peace and certainty you have once so desperately longed for, now lay trampled underneath the might of your mind's vivid horrors. What was once so bright and lively, now cowers in fear, clinging to gone memories like a shipwreck survivor to some lowly piece of driftwood. From the depths of hell, you arrived victorious, grasping the laurel wreath high above your head. Unrecognizable, with your empty eyes telling a story of innocence brutally taken away from the child curling in shame in the depths of your empty soul. Almost green you are, curly head, having grown up with a rifle by your bedside table, never knowing peace and quiet. Out of the pan that was the Kazdel Civil War and into the scorching flames of Lungmen, where life flows by on its own accord, here, you must learn to live once more. So put on your best facade, Let the reuniting trumpets ring a wild, And allow the city to swallow you whole. Here we are, a continuation of my previous work "Goodbye Curly Head", which sprawled into quite the epistle (but it wasn't really a letter, it's just long :P). Summarized in the most basic way possible, it's a story about a twenty-year-old Kazdel Civil War veteran who goes to Lungmen and has some troubles acclimating to the steady life presented before him. Sprinkle in a too-good-to-be-true offer and a freshly established logistics company, and you get Andy trying to make it big for as long as his deteriorating mental state lets him. I'd say it works as a standalone story for anyone who doesn't want to bother reading the first part. For now, at least. As always, please, pwwease leave a comment, positive, negative, I LOOOVE reading and replying to comments!!Complete
