After partly avenging her mother's death, Evette Star, the illegitimate daughter of an elven king, sets off on a warpath to find the adversary of her people.
The human King in the West, Dracul Dregoth, has locked himself away in a stone tower for reasons unbeknownst to those who fear him. His reign has blanketed the land in darkness, and while Evette knows little about the man, she intends to make him pay for the deeds done by those who have obeyed his relayed orders. She will bring him to justice, even if it means uncovering hidden secrets that will force her to question if all of her efforts were really worth the trouble. She will have to learn the hard way that self-love and self-acceptance are more important than the love of others. Werewolves, dragons, and undead spirits may keep her from reaching her destination on time, but her need for fiery vengeance will be sated.
Of Shadow and Death is the first book in the Shadow Of Wisdom series. No one is truly trustworthy. No one is safe. Few will survive the truth, and even fewer will live happily ever after.

While ferrying a message for the Order of the Phoenix, Hermione Granger is caught by jaded Death Eater, Draco Malfoy. Unlikely and unwilling allies, the pair begin a cross-country journey where their survival depends on learning when to stand strong against the elements' fury, and when it's acceptable to erode. Thanks to my beta, Charlie9646, for the suggestions and encouragement. Thanks to Inadaze22 and dreamsofdramione for workshopping the summary with me. Finally, thanks so much to DIG for running the Creature Fest 2020 - Quarantine Creature Comeback and dealing with my abysmal time management. My prompt was submitted by Tori_gingerfox: Draco finds out Hermione's secret and steals something of hers. Hermione insists she is NOT A SIREN.

❝ Let's find you a new home, shall we? ❞ •○• A cold Shifter General. A bloodthirsty Vampire Prince. A powerful Fae King. A mysterious protective werewolf Alpha. And a human girl. The question was - why were the strings of fate bringing them together? •○• 18 year old, sharp and vigilant Cara Arnel was one step away from slavery freedom and being sold. And being caught by the Shifter General of the Vampire Army was most certainly not a part of that plan. Nor was becoming a scullery maid or an assaulted slave in the Royal Palace instead of a blood bag or sex slave. But that was when things started to change. Tensions became high and fights broke out in the unstable supernatural world with the return of Lucifer's son: Killian after more than four centuries. Her visions started again. And a bit too many supernatural males were willing to protect her for no reason whatsoever. Turns out, Cara might not be as insignificant as she thought. Yet, she was undoubtedly human. And it seemed, she wasn't as well informed of her past as she thought. If her memories were the ones to be relied upon. At least.......the ones she had of this life. •○• Shortlisted for Wattpad India Awards 2021 (Please don't copy the story line. It's all mine. A figment of my imagination.
