Lark Achard has been buried for over 500 years. Then in 2014, when the sun came up for the first time that year, she awoke. She opened her eyes and saw a silhouette of a young man against the blinding sun. "Who are you?" he asked cautiously.
Lark slowly sat up and brushed the leaves off her dark green dress. "I am Lark. Lark Achard. Have I crossed territories into your kingdom?"
He laughed lightly and said "No. This is 2014. How hard have you been hit on the head, Lark?" She thought about what he had just said: 2014. 2014. 2014. How long have I been asleep for? she thought.

The Dagger of Eden
In the heart of the crime-ridden Ancien City, Anjali Isa has mastered the art of stealth and murder. A deadly daggerman with the infamous Assassin Guild, she is one of the six killers serving the highest bidder in a city where secrets are currency, and betrayal is the norm. But when a new contract arrives-an assassination on the prince of Fastus, the richest and most powerful of the six magical Sila kingdoms-everything changes. The Sila kingdoms, thriving with their magic and wealth, have long turned their backs on the human lands, which are ravaged by poverty, war, and disaster. The Sila people possess unparalleled abilities and have closed their borders, leaving humans to suffer. Anjali's mission is simple: kill the prince and destabilize the kingdom. Anjali is forced to go undercover within the walls of the Fastus kingdom. But the prince, Kal, is no fool. He quickly discovers who she is, and instead of ordering her death, he turns their cat-and-mouse game into a twisted battle of wills, a contest where each must outwit and outlast the other-whoever survives wins, but neither is ready for what's about to unfold. As Anjali navigates the glittering yet deadly world of court politics, she finds herself entangled in a web of lies, manipulation, and murder. Fastus is unraveling from the inside out, and its once-glorious Tree of Vita, a sacred symbol of the kingdom's prosperity, begins to wither and die. Kal is desperate to uncover why the tree is dying and what dark force is eating away at his kingdom's lifeblood. With every passing day, secrets come to light, and enemies close in. Anjali is torn between her loyalty to the Assassin Guild and her growing understanding of the Sila. Between a kingdom on the brink of collapse and a prince who seems to know her better than anyone else, Anjali must decide where her true allegiance lies-and if she can find a way to stop the destruction she was hired to unleash.Complete
A Mach 20 teacher, what?! (R27)
Who was he? Why was his head feeling in pain? Why was he in a forest? The person looked around as a frown made its way over the person's face. Looking down, the person saw that he/she wore a suit, so that meant that he was a male. His head was killing and he wasn't sure what to do. That was why he laid back down, without a care and just dozing off....Complete
The Cabin
When I awoke from that wooden bed, there was a woman staring at me, the rocking chair she was sitting in rocking back in forth. Her gaze of me was sharp, a patient sharpness; a hunter's gaze. As I stood up from the creaking bed, I was able to see that I was in a cabin. The place was a dimly lit cabin, with giant candles surrounding all corners of the room, book shelves filled with countless books were on every wall, and lastly there were stairs leading to a second floor. The woman's gaze averted from me, as if she was released from a burden. On top of her lap sat a book that she started reading. the title of the book was "How To Knit A Sweater." The Woman was beautiful, her skin as white as snow, her hair long and dark. Her wrists wore leather wristbands with black skulls on them-
Fate and Destiny (The Fated Series, #2)
A kingdom across the sea, a man in pain clawing at a hated king who bears two shadows who protect him. A child, born from a mother with the powers of the Gods, screaming at a blood-soaked bed. A boy, a Prince, kind and full of the flame of life, sitting beneath a moon bug lit sky. Darkness enfolds the lands, its grasp claiming the continent and making its way from an already broken island, only to be stopped by the hands of fate. The hands of the girl and the Prince, and their love for the people in need of protection. This is their prophecy. This is their destiny and their fate depends on it. The Elemental rulers and their family are just beginning to find allies from unlikely and unimaginative places while creatures of myth and legend resurface from their campfire tales, and things aren't going as planned, so they'll have to find myths and legends of their own. Shouldn't be too hard. #6 - #strong-heroine #41 - #banter **Average Word Count Per Chapter: 8,000 **Edited (x2) LET ME KNOW IF YOU SPOT GRAMMAR ISSUES! *****Last Edited: 12/14/2024 NOTE FROM ME! - I very much model my works to resemble published examples, so there are no notes in any chapters from me, trigger warnings for chapters, etc. Just the world my brain likes to escape to every now and then.

Watching
NOW AT BARNES AND NOBLE ONLINE LOOK UP LEXI SHELTON FOR FINAL VERSION I was watching her, my sleeping beauty. Long blond hair with hazel eyes. She was perfect in every way. She made A's in all her classes and did everything according to the rules. My perfect girl, i did this all the time, I watched her sleep, and from time to time, I like to think about what she looks like on the inside. Her guts. Her blood. She was sleeping, I was standing over her. Her face is blank and her body contoured into a fetal position her pink blanket covered her body. I could cut her up, but I won't tonight. Maybe tomorrow or maybe I'll live in this bliss of love. I think that's what I'll do. I crept out of her window but not before I placed a kiss on her head, her skin was so soft. I plugged her phone in and made sure her alarm was set. Then left, the window closed behind me. "Goodnight my princess." I mouthed.Complete![Silhouettes~[Complete]✔](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/91792156-256-k892071.jpg)
