In a shabby and worn tavern with the wafting scent of tobacco and stale mead. Smoke hovered close to the ceiling, creating a gloomy feel. In the back corner of the tavern there was a hushed conversation going about. At one point one of the several figures stood from the table and in a hushed voice pronounced to the group "our lives needn't be so hard, something must be done". The group's whispers rose to a panicked and rapid volume. Until the standing figure ended it by slamming their hands on the table in frustration stating " shut it! All of you! We need to take a stand and stop our kingdom from running into the ground!" The group was startled into silence. 

One of the figures muttered to the group "discussing this is treason. If we are caught or even heard our heads will be on spikes by the end of the night". The group that was huddled together in the shabby tavern, had no clue that they were about to change the direction of history...

36 parts Complete Mature
Born a commoner, Seraphina has only known the harsh life of a farmer's daughter. Even as the Kingdom of Theron's prosperity brought more wealth to the land the common folk never received any of it. This sparked a revolt throughout the commoners causing the kingdom to lose immeasurable amounts of wealth. The King of Theron, Quincy Quardelious, declared that until the commoners stopped the revolt a woman would be taken and executed in the kingdom. It would only be a matter of time until Seraphina would be chosen... -_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_- The wind whipped my hair into a mess as I stood before the guillotine. The high people in society looked at me in excitement as they waited for my head to roll at their feet. I had no intention of letting that happen however. King Quincy sat high above but his gaze felt as if he was standing right in front of me... It was an immense pressure bearing down on me as I raised my head to look up at him. He looked grim as his dark presence seemed to grow the more I stared. "Keep your head down you peasant!" I received a blow to the head as the guard yelled harshly at me. "You don't deserve to look at his majesty!!!" Gritting my teeth I looked for the person who promised he would put an end to this... I was suddenly pushed down on my knees as the guillotine opened for me. As my head was forced into place I lost my hope of surviving. I was played like a fool... "Let the execution commence!!!" Giggles and laughter filled the air as a sickening feeling filled my empty stomach. The crowd went silent as footsteps appeared behind me. Many gasped in shock as the footsteps stopped beside me. I couldn't look around which made me nervous as to who made them go silent. I know it wasn't the king but no one else holds that kind of power besides... The lock holding my head in place fell to the ground with a thud as a strong hand pulled me up slowly. As I slowly looked up, realisation finally hit me as to who saved me from peril...

Book 1 of The Shadow Series. Myths, that's what the humans called it, but for Ashe it quickly became her reality. Her life changing transformation narrowed her paths down to two; She could either embrace her fates and save the people she's grown to love, or she can walk away and live a somewhat normal life while others suffer the consequences. How far is she willing to go to create peace where there's never been any? Will she even create peace? Or will she help encourage the most brutal war the Shadow Realms have ever experienced? Several years of Asheland's childhood had disappeared from her memory. She assumed it was her brain trying to protect her from a traumatic event, although that's true it's not exactly what she expected and her brain wasn't necessarily the cause. After being homeless until she was sixteen years old, then living in a boat dock for four years, she had finally found her home in a cottage in the near-by mountains of Wolf Creek. Everything seemed to be going well. However, as a list of secrets begin unraveling when Ashe gives in to her overwhelming urges to visit the island that terrified almost every citizen in Wolf Creek, her life becomes more complicated than she could've ever imagined. All of this just because she was turning twenty-one. Nothing was as it had ever seemed. * excerpt from the book * { "Why do you make such reckless, impulsive decisions?" The old man asked as we watched the moon. "The world could end tomorrow and everyone expects me to live in fear today? There's no life to live inside the box of fear, there's no freedom in there," I replied softly. }

The is now a SAMPLE ONLY. The story will continue EXCLUSIVELY on AnyStories. "Hello little one" came a booming voice, deep and sultry that made my stomach flutter like wings of a butterfly. "My Lord" I replied, keeping my head down, a quick curtesy, and eyes glued to the floor as if the marble tile was the most interesting pattern in the room. The auras coming from the dragon king was so demanding I felt like I could pass out. "Look at me little one. We do not bite. Much." the voice commanded, although gently it held power. A few snickers softly resonated. I took a breath and gently rose my eyes to meet the most beautiful golden eyes. I was so entranced that I almost didn't hear the one word that was going to change my life forever. Little did I know just how much my life was about to change. "MATE." It took me a minute to register what just happened. Excuse me? Did i just hear the word mate? Oh shit. -------- Everly lives in a world where supernatural creatures live side by side humans.
