A STUDY OF POISONS BOOK 3
_____
Vampires are ruthless and should be eradicated- that is the old way. I vowed to protect both humans and vampires. However in the modern world, tradition still finds its way around us.
Delia Petri, has lived many lives. The Keeper, the Traitor, the Judas Witch- and now she has opened her eyes and will live a new life. As the Duchess of Night, ruler of witches, and Alex's soon to be bride.
Tradition is divided as the Keepers have fallen, while some of them take safe hold in the Night Court- others have sided with Natalia. While Delia learns how to deal with her new powers and understand what it truly means to be a Conduit and a Vampire- Alex is slipping into the darkest parts of his madness.
Will Delia be able to stop Natalia once and for all or will the Duchess of Night fall to the blood she will drain?
_____
Things are different, Alex will never be the same and neither will I. We fell in love with the idea of each other but it's not the love either of us desire, I'm afraid he has his grip too far around my neck. Whatever happens all I know is that I'm going to kill Natalia.
I am Delia Petri, I am the Duchess of Night.

Through the Tempest
"Will you kill me?" Stephan asked, taking a step closer. "Or will you risk keeping me alive, Miranda?" He was so close that I could see the freckles on his face. There were things that I wanted to avoid-this was one of them. I held his stare even though I could feel the hairs on the back of my neck standing up.

Niccola is a demi-queen undercover in enemy territory. Her little sister went missing seven moons ago, but one lead remains: a picture of a woman's face, drawn by a diviner shortly after the disappearance. Tracking her down has led Niccola to Calis, the realm next door whose border with her own remains closed for a reason. There, the trail goes cold. Until, that is, Niccola runs into a man in the marketplace who bears a family resemblance to the woman she seeks. His name is Isaiah, crown prince of Calis, and he's investigating disappearances, too. They join forces, faking courtship to sneak Niccola into the palace and get Isaiah's wedding-minded mother off his back. It doesn't take long to suspect that a common threat might underpin both their realms' problems. And as Niccola begins to develop real feelings for Isaiah, she's faced with an impossible choice: reveal her secrets and risk breaking his trust, or leave him in order to chase down the woman who stole her sister... a woman whose forbidden magic comes with a cost that could bring both realms to ruin. ❖❖❖ Complete and fully edited.

Winding Dawn (Dusk Series - Book 9) (Hiatus till August)
Eliza Lovell has lived a dangerous life, inducted into the hunter organization as a child and hunting vampires since she could walk. Though she wouldn't say she was unhappy. Nothing was more satisfying than sinking her spell-forged blades into the monsters that stalked and terrorized human kind. What she did was a service. It gave her purpose to get up in the morning and sound sleep at night. That was until she met her match with a deceptively alluring vampire named Ezra, and the world around her twists in new and dangerous ways. Vampire corpses begin to surface around town, drained of their blood, and the fingers are pointed at the hunter organization. Eliza had nothing to do with such grotesque displays of depravity, and neither did the hunters, but she doesn't like the sins of others painted on her back. To end the violence and to clear her name, she embarks on a journey to root out the evil poisoning her city. ~~~~~~~~~~~ Alec de Fluer is new to his role as a leader of the Fleurs, but peacekeeping has been in his blood since he was a child. When others fought, he sought to ease their quarrels and help them find peace, as he did now in the tumultuous society that was rebuilding before him. Someone is draining vampires of their blood and hanging them up for display, but there is more to it than just hate. Remnants of Copse magic linger at the dump sites, powerful yet foreign. Though Alec is no longer a Copse, it falls on him to clear his former family's name, alongside his mate Idus and some more unconventional allies.

Fangs & Fury
When the first body fell, the truce began to bleed. Seraphina Vale I didn't ask to be here-standing in a cathedral that reeks of blood and secrets, staring at the one man I swore I'd never need. Darius Fenrir. Wolf royalty with a superiority complex so big it could choke a dragon. He thinks I'm trouble. He's right. Trouble in heels, with a smile sharp enough to slit throats. But when corpses start appearing-bodies branded with symbols no one dares to speak of-I know this isn't about fangs versus fur anymore. Something old is waking, something that wants to burn this fragile truce to ashes. And somehow, it's tied to me. Darius Fenrir I should kill her. End of story. Seraphina Vale is everything I hate-vain, venom-tongued, and far too intoxicating for my own good. She moves like sin draped in silk, and every word out of her mouth makes me want to muzzle her... or worse. But the killings have changed everything. A prophecy soaked in blood has clawed its way back from the shadows, and somehow she's tangled in it. I don't trust her. Hell, I don't even like her. But the more bodies we find, the more I wonder if fate's cruel joke is pairing me with the one creature who could break my kingdom... and me. Dark secrets. Deadly alliances. A killer who bleeds chaos. Welcome to Fangs and Fury.
Calm before the storm,
Being burned at a stake does alot to a person. The fire consumes some whole, while others develop a new personality and life. Being called a witch triplet does something to your reputation, not in a good sense anyway. ~~~~ What if Jane and Alec had an older sister? Will she be as powerful as them or maybe more powerful? Will she be destructive or will she live a peaceful life? ~~~~ "I'm not your age mate, don't speak to me that way." He said looking at me with a teasing glint in his eyes, telling me he wasn't actually offended. "See, I'm a victim. You old geezer seduced me and trapped me into a life long marriage," I said, a playful smile on my face while pointing at his chest. "Would an old geezer be able to do this?" ~~~~ Caius x OC fanfic

If things do, I will post an A/N alerting anyone to the fact, with the date, so you know if you need to check up on it.
