When everyone's asleep or hidden behind closed doors, the dim light of the White Eye guides only the thieves, burglars and assassins in the city of Khalidum. The Eye granted majestic powers to the chosen few, but they can only use them as the night falls. And even among them there's only two types who dare to use their magic openly in the night: the fools who think they won't be caught and the ones who can't be caught...

House of Bellini
Every generation bears the sins of the last. When Anastasia is forced into a marriage she never chose, she becomes bound to Killian-a man feared for his silence as much as his violence. To her family, the union is protection. To him, it is justice long delayed. Every vow is calculated. Every act of devotion hides a blade. Killian has waited years to dismantle the family that destroyed his own, and through Anastasia, he finally holds the thread that can unravel them all. But fate has a cruel sense of irony. The woman meant to be collateral begins to matter. And the deeper the bond between them grows, the more impossible his revenge becomes. Because some threads, once pulled too tight, cannot be cut without blood.
Magical Misappropriations
The life of a thief is hard, but glamorous. With enough money, even the lowest-born citizen of the shining jewel of Voughtberg can carve out a comfortable niche, enjoying the silent prestige that comes with it. The watchmen doff their hats at the masters, and after nights of derring-do, they retire to their hidden beds, and beautiful men and women. Or so Roland and Jochim have heard. Unfortunately, they're still stuck doing whatever task is assigned to them by their miserly employer. Whatever pittance they are gifted has to be supplemented by mundane work under the burning sun, shoulder to shoulder with the sweating masses of the city. These, however, are the necessary burdens for the future they desire, burdens that have been shouldered by generations of thieves. Certainly, nothing so capricious that the accidental theft of a simple paintbrush could disturb it... Imagine the surprise when after its discovery, they are pursued by strange men, and stranger monsters, intent on their death, and the brush's retrieval. With only their wits, and the help of a few friends, the pair of thieves are thrown into a struggle to find out the mystery of the strange artifact before they, or the life they cling to, are lost forever.Complete

For All Those Sleeping [Editing]
Everyone’s hands are stained with blood. You can use the most basic of soap, but the burn will not pick up the red that is permanently tattooed on your skin. Friendly smiles bear daggers instead of teeth; they’re able to blind you when the light touches the carefully shined metal. Who is to trust in this world? For as long as Leo Caché could remember, Thieves have been the scum of the five races. They cannot be trusted, and it would be suicide if one attempted to. Everyone - even Thieves like himself - have long since accepted this fact. All but one man: Cedric. He creates a machine that extracts the DNA of a person, leaving him as a “human” instead of his former race. As much as he would enjoy denying it, Leo finds himself in the spot of the “good guy”. He reunites with everyone he abandoned in the past, but is his own good strong enough to overcome the evil of a powerful Thief? To prove that all Thieves aren’t ruthless, Leo needs you to put all your trust in him. So follow his lead, he’ll keep you covered. [ ©2014 Ppcorn100 .
