Abroad
The purpose of this poetry book is one of defiance. Not to others, or anything in particular. It is against the war we wage internally, against ourselves every day. There is no bigger challenge in life than facing your thoughts, your true emotions, your feelings when you lie alone at night by yourself, cornered. We tend to postpone them, shelf them, as we grow accustomed to our daily activities, never giving ourselves a chance to evaluate ourselves. Who are we? what do we lack? what do we need? In this book, I took it upon myself to air out all of my grievances, my intimate thoughts, my happiness, my disappointments, my sadness all out in the open, for all to see. I wanted to face it all. To stare my mortality dead in the eyes, and let the lingering stare sit, I wanted to simmer the feeling of weakness, of every single type of emotion, completely digest it, and let it manifest genuinely, reading it, again and again, perfecting it, again and again, until the feeling of pain subsides. I there is anything that I want you to take from this book, is time. Yes, just a word, time. It goes by, so have not regrets, and never leave something from saying. If you are looking for a sign to remind you, to tell you parents, brothers, sisters, daughters, grandparents, wives, friends you love them? This is it...Terminé

Crude Prophecy (BxB) M-Preg Series (Eng. Version)
Do you know the meaning of life- when everything you believe in is destined to end? Sixty years ago, the world of Shiltz collapsed when the Five Dragon Seals were shattered. Dragons awakened. Kingdoms burned. The balance between humans, elves, and orcs was erased by blood and fire. From the ruins of that failure, a prophecy remained. "The Ward of Narsillia shall rise, and peace will follow in their wake." No one knows who the Ward truly is-or if they even exist. A savior to some. A curse to others. As darkness spreads once more and the three kingdoms stand on the edge of extinction, fate begins to move. Old wounds reopen. Loyalties fracture. And two souls, bound by destiny and desire, are drawn together in a world that punishes love as cruelly as weakness. In a land where even hope has a price, will salvation demand sacrifice... or something far more dangerous?
