The best cure for a depression? Saving the world of course!
Helen is betrothed to a man who raped her, she is the oddity in her village, and whispers of sacrificing her to appease the darkening sun isn't exactly lightening up her mood. When a prophecy of eternal darkness is revealed to her, revealing why the sun is darkening, taking away the precious rays of energy that makes the Solung survive the eternal winters of their lands, Helen makes the choice to leave her moral-ridden village and her predetermined life behind, to stop the world from becoming as dark as her mind has been.
But in the darkness of night Helen's path will collide with a creature of the night; Ten, a soldier from the dark territories of the north. Unbeknownst to both, and despite the bloodied history between the two people they represent, they must find a path together to change the world forever. Or else, all will be lost in darkness.

Red's Wolves
Alera lost her mother early in life and was raised by a strict king for a father and the many nursemaids who crossed themselves before touching her. It wasn't until she was of marrying age that she learned why the people feared her. She was canny... like her forest mother. Canny and feared to be fae. The only person besides her father who didn't seem to fear her was the handsome stable boy. He knew what she was and didn't cross himself before letting his hands touch hers longer than needed for helping her to her mount. And on her 18th birthday, neither could deny the bond that dragged them together. But her father had her sold off to make an advantageous match with the neighboring king's sullen and cruel son. Even a kingdom over, the whispers of the canny princess the people feared as fae reached royal ears. But they thought to use her to their advantage...to put fear in their own people's hearts and make them bend the knee. Now with the kingdom at war with the prince she would have married, Alera must save the people who feared her from an unspeakable fate brought to their door by the sullen prince wielding a dark unknown power. -------------------- Cover by Tina Glasneck ©2022 M.Dalto Published to Wattpad 06.01.2022 Completed 03/30/2023Completa
The Hollow Prince
COMPLETED. *NSFW* Auralie doesn't believe in fae stories-not the ones whispered by dying villagers, not the ones about cursed woods or monsters that eat your heart. But when girls begin to vanish and strange symbols bleed from the bark of the forest, she crosses the veil in search of answers. What she finds is him. Unmoving. Inhuman. Wearing a crown of antlers and eyes like cut emeralds, sharp with amusement. He speaks in riddles. Smiles like a threat. And calls her little moth, like a name he's been saving. The first time they meet, she draws his blood. The second, he offers her a bargain. The third, he consumes her. The Hollow Prince says worse things hunt her now-creatures that wear her face, sing her name, and slip into her dreams. He claims he's the only thing standing between her and the dark. But the deeper Auralie goes, the more twisted the forest becomes-and the harder it is to tell whether the prince is her captor, her shield, or the very thing she was warned to fear. There is a curse. A game. And a price that was never hers to pay.Completa

After her father's death, Morgan becomes the only thing holding her life together-her grief, her anger, and her younger sister, Mia. When her sister insists on using an Ouija Board to contact their father, Morgan agrees. What's the harm in saying goodbye and telling him exactly how she feels? But something does answer. Not their father. Something older. Ozias Dravenkov. The first demon. And he's been waiting centuries for her. As the barrier between the living and the dead begins to crack, Morgan is pulled into a war over who controls souls, power, and the fate of the afterlife itself. While some fight to preserve the existing order, Ozias seeks to tear it down, no matter how many lives it costs. Caught between two lovers, two truths, and two futures, Morgan must decide who she trusts and what she is willing to sacrifice to keep the ones she loves safe. Yet there's one rule older than heaven and hell: NEVER BARGAIN WITH THE DEAD. They always collect.
