"Thalia Warden will be a legal adult on this day next year. Until then, she will live in the foster care system, and will be able to do with her life as she pleases after that."
-
Memories are a powerful thing. Something everyone strives to collect and to keep. But when pieces of your life start falling apart, and there are things you can't remember, it gets tough.
Thalia's life is full of fragmented pieces, and there are only two things she is absolutely sure of; she needs to run. Run away from whatever home she's placed in. Run to freedom, and never look back. And that agreeing to play exy with the Palmetto State Foxes was the best decision in her life.

To Destroy a Raven - Moving to Kindle
This novella has been removed as it's being edited for publication to Kindle. The original draft version is currently available to read with a FREE membership on the Hive Mind Creators Patreon. Overlooked, average, forgettable, quiet - a selection of the nicer words used to describe Samantha Raven. Being born into the world of drugs and crime, Sam's education in self-sufficiency began at birth. Even after being transferred into the care of the stalwart Raven household, she held tightly to the hard lessons learned throughout her childhood - such as the advantages to being underestimated, the cruel machinations of kindness, and the safety in silence. So when Henry Williams stumbled into her life, the epitome of sweet and sincere, she was inherently suspicious. And when her suspicions were confirmed through the accidental discovery of a business deal hinging on the results of a bet - Sam came to the realization that she was sick of playing the pawn. It would take a hell of a lot more than a bet to destroy this Raven - and it was past time that she became the main character of her own life, beginning with a healthy dose of revenge. ---- Raven Sisters Novellas: (1) To Regret a Raven - complete (2) To Destroy a Raven - complete (3) To Betray a Raven - complete (4) To Crave a Raven - complete (5) To Lose a Raven - coming Fall 2025 Though these stories are connected, they can each be read as a standalone.

I have no idea what to say, I promised her, but like an idiot I broke that promise. "Say something!" My breath hitches and I look up at my beautiful girl through my lashes, my eyes brimming with tears because I know after tonight we won't be seeing each other again. I stand up from the edge of the bed and walk over to her, watching as her chest moves up and down harshly with each breath. My eyes trail over the love marks I left moments ago when we were happy to only get lost in each other's arms temporarily. She's mad at me. I never wanted her to be mad at me. "I'm sorry, baby," I whisper reaching forward to run my finger along her cheek catching the falling tear that flows down her soft skin. "You promised." She whispers. I know.
