Chains Of Shadow And Light
In the year 1618, as the first enslaved Africans arrive on the shores of Virginia, the struggle for freedom unfolds against the backdrop of a harsh and unforgiving land. Among them is Abraham Wayne, an eighteen-year-old young man burdened by a dark secret-he bears a demon seal that binds him to Aymon, a cunning and powerful entity who offers him both strength and chaos. As Abraham navigates the treacherous world of enslavement, he finds unexpected allies in Sarah Carter, a spirited young woman with the gift of water manipulation, and her brother Jamal, who commands the fierce powers of thunder and fire. Together, they must harness their Orisha abilities to escape the shackles of their captors and confront the demons-both literal and metaphorical-that threaten to consume them. But as Abraham grapples with his bond to Aymon, he faces a choice: embrace the dark power that could set him free or risk everything to hold onto his humanity. In a tale woven with resilience, friendship, and the quest for liberation, Chains of Shadow and Light explores the strength found in unity and the light that can pierce through even the darkest shadows. Will they rise together against their oppressors, or will the weight of their burdens tear them apart? Join Abraham, Sarah, and Jamal on a journey filled with magic, danger, and the fierce determination to reclaim their freedom in a world that seeks to bind them.

"Mommy am I your child?" My mom looked down and chuckled at me. "Of course you are Theo." She said continuing to cut the vegetables that I hated. "Then why do we have different skin?" I blurted. I was five at the time and I didn't know any better. "Who said that?" She asked looking at me concerned. She knew I wouldn't have thought that on my own. I was always perfectly happy with everything. "This kid Matt. He said his mommy thinks you're weird because we're two different skins." I said coloring in my book. "Well don't listen to what people say. Love doesn't discriminate." She told me sternly. I took her advice. Highest rank: #6 in interracial #2 in interracial-romance # 3 in sexualthemesComplete
