Fifty years ago, the war ended, but the gates of Duskrim City remained closed. The Upper City, echelon of the rich and the politically powerful, stands glittering against the tests of crime, while the Lower Rim sits as a vast set of slums from which no hope dawns. The only way out of Duskrim comes with a hefty toll, one that most cannot make. Luckily, evolution finds balance, and two-hundred years ago, human beings with abilities emerged. A city stands on the brink of war between powers that threaten to erode away the boundaries of the Upper and Lower forever.

Edmund "Ice Prince" Noveskya, son of the head of the Sokolov Mafia, has been given a test by his father: Locate the Brigadia, a mysterious vigilante who threatens their empire, and kill them. But when fate brings him to a mysterious girl's doorstep, and the powers at play launch an offensive that threatens his father's entire reign, Edmund will have to decide what he's fighting for, and if it is worth everything. 

Bernadette "Birdie" Farroway has lived in Duskrim City her entire life. Living in the Lower Rim, she cares for her mother and sister diligently. When a boy shows up on her doorstep, bleeding and trailed by gun-wielding assassins, Birdie has to set aside her grievances towards the Upper to save her family--and, possibly, all of Duskrim City.

Judas Romanovski, the man people warned me about, the man people feared, the man who destroyed the only thing I thought I had control of- my morals, my patience, my heart. I was deceived first, and then entangled in lies he weaved with his sinful fingers, luring me, manipulating me, and then caging me. A moth drawn to the flame, like tides drawn to the moon, like Eve tempted to sin..... a bird caught serpent's clutches. My helplessness intrigued him, my cries amused him. ****** Seraphina, a determined and selfless young woman who moved to Russia to pursue her studies and escape her family's financial struggles.

The Prototype  by PhynxDeville
78 parts Ongoing Mature
He could very well be the most brutal, sadistic, cold-blooded Mafia King to walk this earth-or wherever the hell I am. But at the end of the day, he either kills me or respects me. Either one is fine with me. I leaned against the long hardwood table, staring into his dark brown eyes with unwavering defiance. "Until this contract is fulfilled, until the prototype passes every test and reaches its final form-the prototype is mine. I am the prototype." Tempest Taylor is intelligent, dominant, and dangerously daring. A summa cum laude graduate of an Ivy League university, her brilliance earned her a position at one of Washington D.C.'s most powerful technology companies-where she successfully created a groundbreaking software system designed to obliterate the competition. She never expected her technology to be used for more than corporate domination. Unknowingly, her software breaches the private networks of the world's most dangerous crime syndicates. When Tempest witnesses a mass murder, she makes the fatal mistake of thinking she can walk away. She can't. Now marked as a living witness and a target, Tempest is delivered into the hands of a man who doesn't just wield power-he is power. And he's about to learn that Tempest is no ordinary woman. Just like any revolutionary creation, before the final version is unveiled, there is a prototype. And until he realizes exactly who he's dealing with, she'll make sure he understands one thing: She is the prototype.

★BOOK #11 in the DARK SERIES★ "I don't want to let you go even if that makes me evil," he growled as he held her body in his arms. Trez Luciano had one rule. Destroy anyone that got in his way. Living on the streets with his brother and then being smuggled into cage fights, he saw the worst in people all the time. Until, he met his mate. She was beautiful, kind and had a smile that made the ice melt away from around his barren heart. He couldn't resist her warmth or the way her wolf eased the blood thirsty animal inside him. Angela Moretti saw the worst in life after her parents were killed in front of her eyes. Living in Tuscany all her life, she couldn't bear the crushing memories of her parents being taken from her. So, she left for New York and now worked in a cafe with her best friend to ignore the ache in her heart. But all that changed when a customer at the cafe was a very dangerous man and called to her wolf and her heart. Axe Luciano was the head of security for his brother's nightclub. He made sure that no one fucked with his brother and killed anyone that tried. It was a simple way that worked for him to forget his tormented days in cage fights as a prized fighter. He kept his focus on work and nothing else... until trouble came calling at the club and he rescued a woman, that beckoned the possessive wolf from inside his blackened soul. Sonya Sharma moved from Mumbai all the way to New York to escape her old life. She was best friends with Angela and they even lived together after they met at the airport the day they both arrived. Deciding to stick together, they both worked at a cafe. And she knew all about the shifter world while being a human. However, she never thought that she'd catch the attention of Axe Luciano.

[COMPLETED] "Shoot," Joey mumbles, letting out a string of profanities under his breath. We turn around to find a group of men, all with guns, standing where we just came from, and they look pissed... probably because they were forced to run through this tunnel after us. "Thought you could get away, didn't you?" The man who I saw before asks. His husky voice booms in the hollow tunnel, reverberating off of the dirt walls. His voice sounds familiar, and a realization strikes me. It sounds like the man from my dream. I remember him holding a gun and wearing a blue suit, smiling evilly at me. "Leave us alone," Joey says, sounding dangerous and snapping me out of my thoughts. The levity of the situation hits-we need to get out of here. I look around for a route of escape and thankfully I see a light, literally, at the end of the second tunnel. I let out a small, almost inaudible, gasp and nudge Joey. He looks at me and I subtly gesture with my head to the second tunnel. He glances at it and immediately we are on the same page. His jaw sets and he looks at the group. The man speaks up again, chuckling darkly-a sound I will never forget and will be permanently etched into my brain, "You can thank your father for starting this mess." -------------------------- Liza was a normal teenaged girl, living the average life that an eighteen year old girl should be living. She had good friends, good grades, a happy family, a loving boyfriend, and an overall content life, seemingly having everything a person could ask for. However, when she somehow gets thrown into the mix and is in the crossfires of a brutal mafia war that she has no business being a part of, things spiral out of control and she has to do whatever it takes to regain her freedom. In this hectic adventure of gun fights, torture, bank robbing and intimidating mafia men, Liza has to face it all, putting her average life on the line in order to defeat the bad guys and go back to her normal way of living.
