The Visionary Patriot: The Angel Among Shadows
Charlotte Briarwood is not human. Created by forces older than memory-the Ancient Sun God and the enigmatic Fool-she began life untouched by compassion, unaware of the fragile beauty of humanity. That changed at a London orphanage, where a brave, protective boy guided her through vulnerability, and a clever, curious child taught her the rhythms and quirks of human life. Through them, she first glimpsed empathy, curiosity, and the strange pull of human connection. Now, a renowned psychiatrist, Charlotte heals minds with uncanny skill, balancing the humanity she has learned against the immortal, angelic being she truly is. But when a noble patient dies under suspicious circumstances-a death disguised as suicide-Charlotte is drawn into a web of secrets, family intrigue, and shadowed power. In a city of fog and hidden truths, she must navigate murder, manipulation, and morality, guided by the anchors of her past. Every choice challenges her identity, her morality, and her understanding of what it truly means to be human. In the end, the greatest mystery she must solve is the one within herself.

❝ Let's find you a new home, shall we? ❞ •○• A cold Shifter General. A bloodthirsty Vampire Prince. A powerful Fae King. A mysterious protective werewolf Alpha. And a human girl. The question was - why were the strings of fate bringing them together? •○• 18 year old, sharp and vigilant Cara Arnel was one step away from slavery freedom and being sold. And being caught by the Shifter General of the Vampire Army was most certainly not a part of that plan. Nor was becoming a scullery maid or an assaulted slave in the Royal Palace instead of a blood bag or sex slave. But that was when things started to change. Tensions became high and fights broke out in the unstable supernatural world with the return of Lucifer's son: Killian after more than four centuries. Her visions started again. And a bit too many supernatural males were willing to protect her for no reason whatsoever. Turns out, Cara might not be as insignificant as she thought. Yet, she was undoubtedly human. And it seemed, she wasn't as well informed of her past as she thought. If her memories were the ones to be relied upon. At least.......the ones she had of this life. •○• Shortlisted for Wattpad India Awards 2021 (Please don't copy the story line. It's all mine. A figment of my imagination.

Hades
They say gut feelings are your guardian angels, Ella Thomas will soon find out that hers was leading her to something she could never imagine existed. Hades has watched over Ella since the day she was born, he was her guardian angel from the depths of the underworld. For centuries he's waited, waited for someone to love. He vowed to himself to protect Ella and only watch from afar. She was so innocent and so human, he couldn't take that away from her. For 20 years he kept his promise, for 20 long and grueling years he watched from afar, until something happens, something that Hades can't ignore. He makes a hasty decision and leaves the underworld, heading to Earth where he knows she will be. But there's a catch, the very person, or should I say God, that Hades despises the most will stop at nothing to destroy his happiness, even if it means killing someone so harmless and oh so very fragile. ....... "How do I look?" He muttered, stepping out of the bathroom. The room seemed increasingly smaller with his large stature in it. I nearly gasped, why did he have to look so good in those grey sweats? I swallowed, trying to act unaffected by his beauty, "Convincingly human." ....... 1st in Love - 13 June 2021 4th in Romance - 13 June 2021 1st in Gods - 13 June 2021 1st in Dark - 30 September 2021 4th in Darkness - 30 May 2022Complete
