A darkness is creeping. A darkness that will swallow up all worlds.
The Faery kingdom of Andra is on the brink of conflict. Faeries, Elves, Dwarves, Goblins, Humans and all other creatures, will soon have to choose sides.
The once united ruling class now stubbornly play politics in a prelude to war. Plots and schemes fill the cities and fear and mistrust sweeps the land. Blood will soon be spilled.
Meanwhile deep in the northern forests, a troop of Elf rangers find signs of a much darker threat in the shadows. For an ancient evil that has long been forgotten and that has long remained hidden, is making whispers again.
And strangely, either by an act of predetermined fate or as the result of extremely bad luck, into this kingdom in turmoil stumbles Jack Hawkins. A teenage boy who wakes up in a dark cave after suffering a terrible tragedy.
Scared, alone and unable to get back to his own world, he makes a deal with a mysterious cave dwelling creature, who promises that he will show Jack the way home, if he carries out three tasks.
But can the creature be trusted? And will Jack actually be able to do, the things asked of him?

Moonfall | Book Two
As the moon hung high, casting its light upon them all, No sooner than its rise, did that moon and its light fall. *** For the past year, eighteen-year old spare heir and werewolf Michael has lived in the shadow of loss. Unable to shake the guilt of not saving his older brother, grief haunts him like a second shadow, and to make things worse, a recurring dream of a mysterious girl won't let him go. When that dream leads him to the once forbidden Woodlands, Michael makes a chilling discovery: a living Fae. Not only should her presence be impossible, as her people no longer inhabited this world, her existence is dangerous. For her. For him. For his mother, whose role in helping the Fae escape the almost war a year ago would be seen as treason by his pack and his father, the ruthless Alpha. To protect his mother, Michael must smuggle the fairy to the new Fae world before anyone discovers her. To do that, he'll need the help of the Witches-his best friend Zanna, in particular-but tensions between the Wolves and Witches are high as both are fighting to claim the abandoned Woodlands. And if he cannot ensure neither side's claims are successful, the fairy will be exposed along with his mother's secret. But protecting the fairy comes at a price. Michael wants to hate her, but finds himself drawn to her in ways that threaten his mission and his heart. And with a forced betrothal looming over him, falling for the fairy is absolutely not an option. Torn between loyalty and truth, duty and heart, Michael must decide who he is: the Alpha's son, the grieving brother, his mother's protector, or something else entirely. Because the Woodlands are stirring again, and Michael's choice could bring war or redemption.Complete

The Crownless Lands
Welcome, traveler. Step into the Crownless Lands-a realm that should have been golden but never was. The maps still show grand borders; the songs still promise glory. But up close you'll find frayed banners, broken vows, and people trying to live between the teeth of history. Here, adventurers hunt fortunes that refuse to be found. Heroes rise late or fall early. Lives are traded, stolen, and sometimes-miraculously-saved. And the creatures? Some stalk the roads and terrorize the villages. Others arrive with a lesson sharp as a blade. And the kingdom's worst monsters wear crowns made of lies. --- What You're Getting Into: A weekly high/dark-fantasy pulp serial-fast, moody, full of intrigue, sorcery, and razor twists. Each episode lands a complete beat and ends on a cliffhanger. Where It All Unravels: A continent under a failing crown: forts crumble, roads go quiet, new rules harden. Towns and frontiers fend for themselves-more grit than resources. Bloodlines, Beasts & the In-Between: Shifts among humans, elves, dwarves, orcs, and classic creatures-some scourge, some uneasy allies. How the Story Moves: Chapters leap across the map, braiding many plots into one struggle. Local skirmishes mirror the bigger fight for a crown no one can hold. The People Worth Bleeding For: An ensemble of adventurers, exiles, heirs, and schemers. Not every arc finds light-some rise late, fall early, or trade all for one mercy. Your Weekly Drop: New chapters every Thursday, 6-10k words. Each deepens the world, sharpens the cast, and drives the saga-great for weeklies and first-timers. Important Note: The story follows multiple destinies; chapters are non-sequential and jump between plots across the Crownless Lands.

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.

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 03/30/2023Complete
