Astrid Pierce was accustomed to strange. In fact, she swam in it. You would have to with a dad who disappears for weeks or months at a time, and a very skilled stepmother who liked to go around stabbing Astrid's classmates for having fangs and horns on the full moon. Don't get me wrong. Don't give all the credit to her parents. Astrid is plenty strange herself, sometimes even more so. That doesn't mean that she is fine with going to sleep in her nice, comfortable bed then waking up in a clearing with a bug pulling her hair. She didn't expect a solider to drag her across a strange, extraordinary land because of some war that is doing nothing for her except stopping her from getting back home. The problem? Astrid has a curse that the local's call, "Nothing but trouble." She's something called a Grace. A being that's reincarnated whenever their world might end. A being that's so powerful that world peace is left for them to fight for. She is the only one left in existence. The only one left to clean up the war. Not really the best job for a 15 year old, huh? Getting home was a lot more trouble than it was before. If she even makes it home alive. War is an ugly thing. It's getting worse too. Both sides are reaching the extremes to try and win the never ending war. It's starting to look like Astrid might be the only one left that can see both sides. The only one who actually wants peace. Even if she wants to help, it doesn't mean that she has any clue how. Especially when everybody either wants you dead or wants to control you. Trust no one when everyone has their own agenda.

Bound by Blood (An Anya Maynard Novel)
*Book Three of the Anya Maynard Series* Life has never been easy for Anya. It seems like her entire life she has fought for, well, her life and these days death threats have become the norm. Mated to the Alpha of the Appalachian pack and daughter of the Alpha on High himself she was amply protected, but as a half-breed of human and the purest of werewolf lines there were plenty who would see her dead simply for what she was, never mind the rift she had caused by shifting power equally to the females as well as males. Not bad for someone who had only learned of her wolf heritage a year ago. But with trouble brewing along the southern borders her soul mate, Connor, is left with no choice but to travel without her to evaluate the situation. In his absence it’s Anya that’s in charge. This is her chance to prove she was capable of everything she promised the females were…and it has left her overwhelmed. Throw in the physical and mental exhaustion she feels because of the strain the distance is putting on her soul bond with Connor and she can’t help but doubt her abilities. There was still so much she didn’t know about her race or even the beings in her own town… Things compound when a chance encounter reveals a new enemy, one just as powerful as the wolves…and not of this world. Before Anya and her pack can figure their motives someone very close to her disappears and another is beaten and left for dead. They’re left with more questions than answers and the only wolf that can help is a stranger new to town, a woman claiming to be of Anya’s blood. Anya doesn’t want to believe this woman-her father was her only kin-but even she can see the similarities between the two… …including the woman’s own supernatural gift.Complete

Long Live The Leaders
Based after How To Train Your Dragon: Hidden World and during the new Netflix series Rescue Riders. ------------------------------------------------------------ Since the dragons left Berk to live in the Hidden World, Hiccup had been missing Toothless desperately. Same would be said for Toothless. He missed his best friend. Besides from that, everything was going great for the both of them. They had started families with their lovers, Toothless was going good as the Alpha/King dragon and Hiccup was performing his duties as the Chief of Berk very well. But despite their lives being close to perfect, neither of them could shake the feeling of missing each other. So Astrid came up with an idea. Hiccup and Toothless could catch up while they go away for a couple of days. Both Berk and the Hidden World would be looked after well by their leaders wives. Hiccup and Toothless thought it was a great idea, so they accepted. And there was no doubt they were excited. But what would happen if they were caught in a terrible storm and crashlanded onto an island? With Toothless' self-working prosthetic tail broken, they needed supplies to fix it. But what if the island's protecters, the Rescue Riders, thought they were a threat and didn't know that they were about to fire blast the famous Dragon Master and powerful Alpha? ------------------------------------------------------------ I don't own anything except the plot of this FanFiction.
