When a personal grudge threatens to endanger the lives of not only himself but of all the people he holds dear, Seamus the half-orc is forced to enlist the help of his friends in order to deal with the threat. 

Yet not all is as it seems, and the journey eventually forces him to make an impossible choice. For exactly how wise is it to put your trust in a demon's word?

----------------------------------------------
NOTE from the writer: This is the short story I wrote based on a D&D arc in the game I run as a dungeon master. I plan to release a chapter every week, sort of episodic!

It is also the spark that eventually led me to publish my first novel: The Lady's Gift - Part One of the Chosen Saga. I posted this as an example of my writing style, so if you like this, be sure to check out the novel through my profile and blog link! Hope you enjoy, and any criticism or comments are very, very welcome.

We've all heard the tales of good and bad, the tales of innocent deceit and her hero, the tales that despite their nature, show us the beauty in contrast. But it's the tales of pure evil that get swept under the rug. The tales of deception, where cruelty is rewarded. The tales that have you questioning who the real villain of the story is. There's a simple philosophy to most thing in life; two wrongs 𝘯𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳 make a right. So what ensues when you put two of the worst kinds of people together? Loyalties transfer, lines blur, and hatred ignites complete chaos. She's cunning. 𝘏𝘦'𝘴 𝘳𝘢𝘡𝘩𝘭𝘦𝘴𝘴. She's dangerous. 𝘏𝘦'𝘴 𝘷π˜ͺ𝘀π˜ͺ𝘰𝘢𝘴. She's evil. 𝘏𝘦'𝘴 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘴𝘦. Or so that's what we're told.

Unfaithful: A Modern Orc Romance by LindseyLewisbooks
51 parts Complete Mature
Araya never thought she'd find love with an orc, but Drun isn't like anyone she's ever met. As they navigate the challenges of their unconventional relationship, they must confront their own prejudices and those of their society. Unfaithful is a modern fantasy romance that will have you questioning what it means to be loyal and true. "She promises we will see each other soon but she is human and thus, unreliable at best." Araya is tired of living with a man who doesn't touch her and suffering from depression does help either. It's making it hard for her to break away from him. What does she decide to do? Have a one-night stand. The issue is she is now tied to this one-night stand in a surprising way. Together they found out that her depression is something more and it turns out the boyfriend won't let her go so easily. I don't know why I went to a bar; I have never been in one all my life but here I am in a karaoke bar. I should rent a room and drink by myself, but I know why I am sitting at the bar, I want someone to approach me. As I order another dry chardonnay when can you guess it, an orc sits a chair down from me. He looks fierce with his lower teeth, tusks, whatever you call them jutting out, not the biggest I have seen but I could loop a finger around them to bring him closer to me. I blush at the thought but keep peaking at him. "After you" his voice is husky with desire, and he waves a hand into the room. I enter and my nerves start to fray. I don't think I can do this. I need more to drink but he closes the door and when I hear the click, I turn to look at him. I don't think I can have an affair with this guy, but man I want to.

If you have any questions please feel free to ask and follow me here and on many other platforms, thank you. Seven sins. Seven hosts. One city purged. If vengeance is all you know, can you really let it go, or succumb to your rage? Willka has signed a pact with Valdina, a demon of Infernos, driven by a burning desire for revenge against the city that took everything from him. Given a second chance at life, he's been tasked with enacting an ancient right to purge the city of sin for both the angels of Hevellum and the demons of Infernos, as an example to all of Eldara. Willka eagerly accepts and sets out to enact his vengeance by burning Lumen Magnum to the ground. However, along his journey he is warned of the cost of his rage. Should he proceed with hatred in his heart, his soul will be enveloped in sin. He will be condemned to a fate worse than death. The memories of abuse, his life as a slave, and the losses of those he loved dearest drive him forward. In the end, will his past give him strength or be his undoing? This story is for readers 18+.
