Rebel Smith has spent two years of her life in Sangrea's maximum-security prison. Seven hundred and thirty days of captivity and counting. 

King Cyrus had sentenced the assassin and the rest of her guild to rot in the cells as retribution for the lives they had taken. 

She supposes it's not that bad, as she has better living conditions than many other prisoners. Then again, many are too scared to share a cell with the former best assassin on the continent. Nonetheless, every Friday, Rebel fights in the prison's pits for a few coins each match and as entertainment for the drunks of the kingdom. And as the reigning champion, she even gets a few extra perks. 

But being cooped up in a cell tending to her bloody knuckles wasn't how the former assassin envisioned spending her time. 

So, of course, the former assassin thinks it is her day of execution when she gets called down and escorted by guards outside of the prison. 

But this isn't the case. The new king, King Salvatore, recruits her for a mission in exchange for her freedom and payment. The only catch? 

As a Lycan herself, she has to live with an Alpha and his pack while she trains for the mission. And ultimately go on a mission with him to execute a disobedient lord of the North. 

But nothing is ever easy. Rebel suddenly finds herself in the middle of a world of dangerous politics brimming with magic, secrets, and deadly games.

Valora Anton is a trained, lethal assassin, and she's running for her life. No one-no one-had ever come close to catching her. But when the net finally closes, she's transferred to an island prison house in the Atlantic, a place known for its brutality. She's certain this is where her journey ends-until she realizes she's wrong. Phoenix Knight is the iron-fisted warden of Atlanta Prisonhouse, feared by every woman under his control. Ruthless, unforgiving, and unbending, he rules with an absolute hand, tormenting misbehaved prisoners without a second thought. His pleasure comes from their suffering, from breaking them, bending them to his will. But when Valora enters his domain, everything shifts. There's something about her-something sharp, dangerous, poisonous-that draws him in. On one hand, he's repulsed by her icy demeanor, her unyielding nature. On the other, he's irresistibly allured by her presence, by the fire that simmers beneath her calm exterior. For the first time in years, Phoenix is out of control. And he hates it. Valora is no ordinary prisoner, and Phoenix is no typical captor. Their dynamic is a volatile cocktail of aggression, manipulation, and raw tension. Each encounter between them ignites a new spark, a dangerous push-pull of venomous desire that neither of them can resist. They are two forces of destruction, locked in a dance that threatens to undo everything they've ever believed in. The real question is: How far will they go to destroy each other? And in the end, who will be left standing, and at what cost? [Second Book of the V-Series] A Standalone Novel Complete.

DISCRETION SERIES - Stand Alone - BOOK #7 Cyrus Mongomery. A retired world-renowned assassin with a resume as sharp and crisp as his aim. Taking down world leaders, gang members, and politicians was effortless, and although his career seemed promising, the elites breathed easier when he retired. That is until the leader of the Bravta called him out of hibernation with a request for leaked information and the head of a traitor on the foot of his doorstep. Cyrus accepts the job and finds himself knee-deep in the world of the mafia. Learning the secrets of the traitor and executing him seemed like an easy job to get him back into the swing of things... or so he thought. Estella Romanov. The partially deaf-mute daughter of Roman Ivanov, Cyrus's target. A writer by day and a reader by night, she lives in the shadow of her father and brother.

But the distraction becomes a bit more than just that as Cyrus finds himself captivated by the sheltered mafia princess. What was simply a distraction quickly turned into an infatuation, fixation, and then, an obsession. As his obsession grows and the dark secrets and truths of her home are explored, discretion is no longer a choice but a necessity... because now he's bound to her, and together, they are bound to discretion. ♠︎♠︎♠︎♠︎♠︎♠︎♠︎♠︎♠︎♠︎ WARNING: THIS BOOK CONTAINS HIGHLY EXPLICIT AND MATURE CONTENT AND EXPLICIT LANGUAGE.

Picked for the WattVamps February Showcase & now a Wattpad Dark Fantasy featured story! The Risen Series - Book 1 Rebellion I've been a cardholding member of the undead for centuries, torn away from the sun by a vampire with no care for human life. From the moment I opened my eyes to the night and had my first craving for blood, my Maker twisted and moulded me into exactly what he wanted; trapping me in his hold. Until one day he let me go. Content to live out eternity as no more than a shadow, I do my best to stay out of trouble. But trouble always had a way of finding me. During a hunt, I run into another vampire doing his best to go unnoticed; one so ancient the air around him reeks of power, and he claims he's just escaped imprisonment from the very council that used me to their own ends. Atanas demands I help him until he regains his strength so he can finish what he started a century ago, but I'm not sure that's all he wants from me. And while I'm no supporter of the council he seeks vengeance against, there are secrets that bind my life to theirs, and I know better than most that disloyalty means death. But in the shadows, a rebellion has been brewing, and I might be more important to both sides than I could ever have imagined.
