Damned (Book 2 of the Ashes Saga)
Lazarus Lyon was not always the chosen prophet of the shadows. She was known by a different name - one from a world lost to her. When the Gods of the Void send their only messenger to retrieve her, an infamous demon king named Vincent, she is taken from her holy sanctum and imprisoned as a slave to the darkness. Forced into a seat of power, Lazarus finds herself to be the speaker of a mysterious, evil force seeking total universal domination. A title that none understand - doomed to damn her soul eternally regardless of her personal desires. How could one be expected to destroy all they have ever known and loved? As a condition to be given her most sacred dreams as payment for her deeds, the Void Lords demand sacrifice. Any and all must perish. Becoming a demon was never a pain-free process... for anyone involved. Fantasy meets horror - not for the faint of heart. (The full version of this book is available on Amazon/Kindle. The first book, Victima, is available on KU. Check it out if you enjoy it!)Terminé
Bloodline Sacrifice
A ritual sacrifice to avenge a poor family will change the children's lives forever; It will put them on different paths and put them at odds. Some will take the path of righteousness and others will go on a path to obtain ultimate power; power to rule a kingdom and power to rule the spiritual realm. In a kingdom where magic is a common way of life; many see it as the only to get wealth, health and the justice that is withheld from them by the powers that be. For many, magic is beautiful and has been a part of their tradition for generations, but for others it is a dangerous way to live; for some gods and goddesses demand cakes and wine but others demand blood and lives.Terminé
Valerie
***SAMPLE!*** There's a prophecy - a prophecy holding the fate of two worlds. On the edge of Lilah's field, at the twelfth hour of the fall of twelve, the three kings will unite, a daisy will be lost, or the worlds will be gone. The Oracle tells me that I am bound to the prophecy. That I cannot alter or change it. That I'm destined to be greater than what I am, but I already knew that. I've known that since the age of five. Now, can you guess who needs to die? Death doesn't bother me. I will let the world burn if it means achieving my goals - because with every lick of the whip; he tore my flesh raw, as his laughter rang through the mansion, and my screams disturbed the heavens. No one cared to help, no one listened - definitely not the Gods. So why should I? ._. Eldora. A world woven together by magic. Cloaked in darkness and chaos, sin, and deceit. Where no one is innocent; where both hands - and teeth - drip with the blood of others. And there is her. A lone wolf, watching the world tear itself apart. Watching the chaos, the death, the destruction as she fights a far greater war, within her. What's right and wrong? What's considered good and evil? Where does she stand in this enteral mystery, we call a universe? Coated in darkness and pain, she questions the meaning of life and death, and her purpose in this world of infinite possibilities. She finds only one answer: REVENGE. WARNING - Contains abuse, suicidal thoughts, intense trauma, and erotic scenes. Please do not read if this is heavily triggering for you!Terminé

Tales of Disturbance
A young teenage girl, haunted by the memories of her father's execution, attempts to escape a cruel regime by night. A solitary woman, abandoned by her husband, inadvertently plays into the cruel hands of 'the state'. In another totalitarian regime a traffic light fixer is dealt with brutally for admiring a sunset. All these characters capture the essence of what it's like to be disempowered and cruelly dehumanised at the hands of a heinous, corrupt power. This sharp collection of pertinent short stories throws an at times uncomfortable light on cruelty, injustice and persecution that is all too relevant today. But ultimately these stories celebrate the strength and determination to survive at all costs, that exists within all of us.
