What happens when a powerful sorceress falls in love with a vampire fledgling? The world burns.

Revenge, forbidden love, tragic pasts, and secrets.


Catriona doesn't remember her name, where she lives, or even her appearance. All she knows is that she has powerful magic and that HE must pay for what HE did to her. Unfortunately, she doesn't remember who HE is or really what HE did. All she knows is that sick sour feeling in her stomach when she remembers that hand reaching for her, and that her last act will be to watch HIM die bleeding at her feet. There's no dying until then. 

Never mind the magic that tethers her to three strangers and threatens to strip her of her mind. Never mind the pain that comes when they're too far apart, like razor wire slicing in her brain. Everything is a distraction from making HIM pay... except maybe Vrythien. The pale elf has his secrets, more than even her empty mind holds. Beautiful enough to be ruinous, he's too pretty to be a distraction almost as though he's made to draw her in... and keep her from doing what she needs to survive.

"So serious all the time. Ever smiled?" No reaction. "Ever laughed, warden?" Not even a tilt of lip. He simply sat there. Looking at her blandly that she was so close to getting up and shaking him to feel. To feel something. Still, she didn't give up. "Ever fucked?" A flash of something passed. It was so quick she barely registered it. "Ever cummed?" She moved closer, leaning over his desk. "Wanting to keep pounding and pounding into a tight wet cunt?" Her toes were now off the floor, her knees touching the edge of his desk and her body hovering over it. His face blank but it was those forest green eyes that gave Valora the glimpse of the animal purring inside him. She was about to say something when his mouth opened. "Wouldn't you like to know?" _ Valora Anton is a noxious trained assassin and she is running for her life. Except she didn't think she would get caught. When she is transferred to a prison house on an island in the Atlantic, she thought it was the end of the line. Only she thought wrong. Phoenix Knight, warden of Atlanta Prisonhouse is known for his ruthless iron rule on disciplining lethal women prisoners. He torments the misbehaved and has the satisfaction of doing so. When he meets the poisonous Valora, he is aggressively acute of her. Not only is he repulsed but most powerfully allured by her presence. She is taken up by the obstinate hardened captor but the venom they create has the vigor to destroy everything they have ever believed in. How far will they go to destroy? [Second Book of the V-Series] A Standalone Novel Complete.

Nova disguise as a boy to enter the military school. If she is discovered as a girl, she will be kicked out. She is desperate to hide from trackers who have been following her for a dozen years. No one would think to look for her in an all-male military school. She hides among werewolves and is one of the very few nonshifters at the school. She catches the new instructor's curiosity, and her identity is threatened. He claims to be her mate, but she knows that her kind don't have a mate and desperately tries to avoid him. If he stumbles upon her true identity, she is screwed. "What are you doing?!" growls his highness, ripping the knife from my hands. It tingles as his fingers close around my wrist. Fresh blood flows from the wound, turning his hands red. Deep throaty sounds, rumbling in his chest. "You hurt yourself," he says softly, pain evident in his voice. I look up and frown. "It's just a small cut," I reply, annoyed. None of the other cadets get this kind of attention. Besides, we have to learn this to pass the exam. "Shhh, it's going to be okay," he says, pressing me close. My whole side explodes with sparks. It tickles me. "You have to stop hurt yourself. Why are you even here? How am I going to protect you here?" he asks angrily. "I don't need your protection!" I shout, pushing him away. I get an angry growl back. Quickly I grab another knife and throws it over my shoulder, hitting bulls' eye. He glares at me, and the room has gone completely silent. That's when I discover that I may have gone too far with the insanely possessive highness, even though I'm grateful for the extra lessons he gives me. Then suddenly everyone hurries out of the training area. Leaving me alone with the growling, red eyed alpha. *This book contains graphic depictions of violence, sexuality, strong language, and other mature themes.* English is not my first language.
