Copyrighted 2020 **Book 1 in the Darkness Series!** **Completed!** *Under construction* There was a creature locked away miles beneath the stone streets of Deshua, Oregon. A monster with the body of a man, jet black eyes of a soulless demon, and even darker feather wings cascading from its back. Those foolish enough to believe its unnatural, ethereal beauty would call it a fallen angel. The immortals who inhabited the town knew better. They knew to call it daemonium-demon. Forced asleep by a council who believed in the greater good, many revered the monster. Yet the town's eternal population was torn in two. Half awaited the day for the foretold cursed soul to come and resurrect their lord and the other half feared it just as much. And guess who got to be that lucky bitch. *No love triangle* -&- **WARNING** This book WILL have mature, adult content! Please be aware of this before reading.

❝ 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.

Three Realms - Returning Home
A magical land. Could it be a dream? Meg, who had always believed in the existence of a hidden magical world, suddenly found herself in a place where spectacular beings truly existed: wizards and witches, goblins, elves, unicorns, mermaids, griffins, chimeras, lamias, sea monsters, dragons, fairies, and many other extraordinary creatures. A world that seemed frozen in the 17th century, where women wore long dresses and men wore cloaks. When Meg received her mother's journal not long ago, she could never have imagined she would be living in an enchanted world and, to her astonishment, discover she was a witch. "Yes," a witch. Meg arrived in the Three Realms, her homeland, when she turned thirteen; it happened as if by magic, through messages she received in dreams with a girl she now knew was named Isabel. Isabel, along with three other girls her age, were her best friends in this other world. There was so much to see and so much to learn in this realm of pure magic - secrets buried in time, the mystery of time travel, the quest to discover who her parents were, the enigmatic queen... To master hidden knowledge beyond the understanding of the most powerful wizards, to become part of the Wizard Elite across all magical dimensions. Meg was now in a world where the strange was absolutely normal - the world she belonged to. An impenetrable, insurmountable, unimaginable world, beyond human and magical comprehension. A world... it might change yours... "This is the first book in the Three Realms saga. Get ready for an epic journey - a magical adventure that's just beginning."
