Before she was a coven leader, she was just a girl looking for her place in the world. Then, the darkness came calling.
I was raised to be the next coven leader. Regardless of what I wanted for myself.
On the day of my graduation, and the famous Litha celebration, an evil curse shatters my town's peaceful existence. With the rest of the council unavailable, it's up to me and my new friends to stop the magic from destroying everything.
Among those friends is the charming Isaac, the next Watcher for the Hawthorne coven and Jefferson, the Alpha to be, and the first shifter I have ever met in person.
Witches and shifters are not known to work together or become friends. And they're definitely not meant to fall in love.
I may not want to be, but I am the chosen witch, and the leader the town of Hawthorne needs.
If I can save them all in time.
Discover how it all began in the magical town of Hawthorne in this exclusive novella by the USA Today best selling author, Valia Lind!

Morana, the Witch of Life
Morana knows she's different from other people in more ways than one. Firstly, she's sixty-seven years old but stopped ageing in her twenties. Weird things have also happened around her right after she's wished for it. But most importantly, no matter how she acts, people feel uncomfortable around her. Unfortunately, she has no way of finding out why all of this is since she was abandoned as a baby. A shocking event makes her cross paths with Alejo, a male witch who has issues trusting other witches. But when it comes to Morana, he feels comfortable and at ease, as well as attracted to her. They are, however, not mates, and as such, he knows that any romantic relationship between them is doomed to fail. To not risk losing her, he therefore does all he can to fight his own feelings. [Can be read without having read volume one and two] ---------- Mature rating due to: smut, violence (magical mainly, but some that's rather bloody), death, attempted rape (happens in chapter 42 and will be mentions of it afterwards, fairly none-descriptive, focus is on emotions, there will NOT be a trigger warning at the beginning of the specific chapter), abuse both physically and verbally - mention of past child abuse. There is no self-harm, however, there are certain aspects that might still be triggering in that regard. If you ever have any questions about the content and potential triggers, feel free to reach out to me. I'm more than happy to specify more if need be. ---------- This series will contain the following volumes: Volume 1 - Zoe, the witch of innocence (completed) Volume 2 - Crimson, the witch of night (completed) Volume 3 - Morana, the witch of life (completed) Volume 4 - Mirai, the witch of sight (completed) Volume 5 - Danae, the witch of light (completed) Volume 6 - Rheseis, the faerie of love (ongoing)Complete

The Wolf's Mate
Synopsis In the bustling heart of the city, Isabella Hawthorne is a self-made millionaire, her success marked by ambition and innovation. Yet, despite her luxurious penthouse and thriving empire, she feels a profound emptiness-a yearning for something deeper than her gilded life can provide. As autumn winds whisper promises of change, she finds herself drawn to the wild beauty of the forest that borders the city. Gabriel, a solitary artist and werewolf, lives in the shadows of that same forest. By day, he captures the essence of the night through haunting paintings; by night, he grapples with the primal instincts of his dual nature. Though he has accepted his fate, the loneliness of his existence weighs heavily on him, preventing him from forming meaningful connections. When fate conspires to bring Isabella and Gabriel together, they are thrust into a world where danger and passion collide. As Isabella ventures into the forest in search of adventure, she stumbles upon Gabriel's hidden realm. Their unexpected encounter sparks a connection that transcends their vastly different worlds, challenging them to confront their fears and embrace their true selves. In a dance of light and shadow, they discover that love can blossom in the most unexpected places, breaking down the walls they've built around their hearts. As they navigate the complexities of their intertwined lives, both must learn that true connection defies boundaries-and that sometimes, the wildest love is the one that leads to liberation.Complete
Danae, the Witch of Light
Danae has lived for well over two thousand years and she is tired of it, but unable to die. She has withdrawn from most magical creatures, including other witches, as she has seen far too many acts of selfishness and greed. The exceptions are the dragon Rikus and phoenix Zeal, who she counts as family, as well as the few friends who visit on occasion. And, of course, the pack of wolf-shifters located near the cave she calls home, who she's unable to avoid due to recurring conflicts. As all members of his pack, Aidric has grown up hearing the stories of the cruel treatment the pack has suffered at the hands of the Witch of the Mountain. As such, there's no doubt in his mind she is the one responsible for the disappearance of children from the pack. But when he goes to confront her, his opinion of her takes a drastic change. Having lived for so long and knowing she cannot die, Danae is determined to reject the Alpha of the wolf pack when it turns out he is her mate. Aidric, however, is equally determined to win her over and asking her to help find the missing children is a perfect way to keep her close. ----- Mature rating due to: explicit scenes, mentions of suicide attempts, thoughts of wanting to die, (magical) violence ----- This series will contain the following volumes: Volume 1 - Zoe, the witch of innocence (completed) Volume 2 - Crimson, the witch of night (completed) Volume 3 - Morana, the witch of life (completed) Volume 4 - Mirai, the witch of sight (completed) Volume 5 - Danae, the witch of light (completed) Volume 6 - Rheseis, the faerie of love (ongoing)Complete
Rejecting the Alpha
Kylie survived the brutal destruction of her pack only to discover her cold alpha mate was the one responsible for the brutal slaughter of her family and pack mates. She can't forgive and she won't forget. Kylie cooperates with his demands while she searches for a way to free the remaining survivors and herself. Success teaches her just how complicated mate bonds can be and gives her the chance to choose her own fate. "Screw the mate bond. If I went for his throat while he was driving in human form, I might be able to kill him right now, and if I didn't succeed, the resulting accident might. I leapt for the front seat, powerful jaw ready to rip out his throat as he had ripped out my family's to take my revenge. Without even taking his left hand off the wheel, he blocked me by getting his right forearm between my jaws. I bit down as hard as I could, wishing to break his bones and sever the limb. Worse, I felt the tingles of our first contact where violence had connected us. The iron of his blood mingled with the other scents around me." (This is a dark story, but not the stereotypical one where she falls in love with her captor. This is the story of escape from a toxic relationship and finding healthy love.) MATURE content including violence, dubious consent, intimacy, and mature and other possibility upsetting themes like threats of suicide and miscarriage. Not intended for the 18- crowd, sorry. #1 in Protective (10/23/21, 02/02/22) #1 in Pack (10/24/21)Complete
