Book one of the Crooked Realms Series

All things must die... but hope dies last.

Brenna James grew up hearing stories of a great monster that prowls beneath the full moon. Half-man, half-beast. A tale created so children never wander too far into the forest. Yet she's one of the few that knows the stories are true. She and her family have been hiding in the mortal realms her entire life. Until one fateful night changes everything. 
Brenna is whisked away to the world of Crescent- a land of equal magic and malice. Separated from her family, she's forced to strike a deal: Pretend to love the realm's lord until the Embassy Gala in December or she will never see her family again.
As she navigates a court of deception and secrets, Brenna battles between learning the truth about her past and fighting for a future where she and her family will be safe.

Ariella doesn't want to love a human, they have ruined her world, tried to steal from her, taken those she loved away from her and made her life difficult on a regular basis. Rogues still roam the planet, avoiding detection and hounding the family property with constant attacks. One little prophecy keeps the Mordecai family in the rogues sights, continuing their efforts to return control of the planet to the humans. Ariella doesn't want to love a dark being either. They too have ruined her world, lying and cheating on her. Some of those men from her past can be ignored, avoided by choice. But there are some that she can not avoid. There is one from her past that she wished she never had to look at again. He might be her past but he is her present too, creating inner turmoil for Ariella. Social functions and elder meetings have always been hell for Ariella, having to face the one man she wished she could plunge a stake into. Lucian Eliade Leonte. As the son of the ruler of the realm, her former boyfriend is always going to be a part of her social circle, always going to be a part of her life. In her eighty-five years of life, all Ariella has ever wanted was to be loved by someone who would do the right thing by her. But the men that had entered her life had taken a knife to her world, twisting it in her heart and causing grief. Sworn off all men, she now lives her love life through her feeding. Never exposing herself, never letting her guard down. Her frozen heart is rock hard, never to be broken. At least, that was what she hoped. One slave bought for duties at her family residence will change how Ariella lives her life. Can the slave break through the facade of a domineering, cold hearted woman to be the love of her life? Or will he be like all the men before him, becoming a liar and a thief? © This story is copyrighted no part may be reproduced by any process nor may any other exclusive right be exercised without the permission of xMishx 2013/14

My magic is for you, Alpha

"He remained silent as he gazed upon her. He awaited her to initiate the conversation. If he was taken aback, he didn't show it, though a flicker of emotion passed in his eyes. This girl who had plagued his dreams, who had insulted and rejected him as if he was someone inconsequential, now stood before him, politely bowing and waiting for his response. No, he would not give her that satisfaction, at least of that he was certain." Trish has always been a fierce independent woman, but when the threat looms over her home, she is forced to set aside her pride and seek the aid of the strongest Alpha. Her illness has left her wolfless, or so everyone thinks. Trish does not share her secrets. Caelan is determined to be a just Alpha despite his troubled past. He is pragmatic, dismissing the old beliefs and supernatural tales. But the Moon Goddess has a way of laughing at non-believers. During a visit to another Alpha's pack, he meets Trish and he burns. He burns for her, he burns because of her and what he knows for sure is that this woman has bewitched him. It hurts when she rejects him. The time doesn't heal deep wounds. He wants her to feel the same pain, he wants his revenge, she is not his True Mate, but why then does she have such a hold on him? Why does her barely noticeable scent smell so sweet? What magic is that?
