***
In a celestial tapestry bloodied by the demon civil war, Valkyrie Kara finds herself entangled in a web of love, deception, and ancient plots. When Anna, a pregnant human and distant cousin to Kara, becomes the target of the purity faction of demons, the fearless Valkyrie agrees to help Pazuzu, a demon prince desperate to shield his love from their relentless pursuit.
Enter Scota, an Elven assassin driven by a deep-seated hatred for demons. Unaware of the true nature of her contract, Scota's path collides with Kara's when the Valkyrie foils Scota's attempt on Anna's life. Sparks fly between the Valkyrie and the assassin, but love seems an unattainable dream amidst the chaos of conflicting loyalties.
Can Kara navigate the treacherous waters of duty, family ties, and forbidden emotions? Will Scota's disdain for demons blind her to the truth, even as her heart yearns for a connection with the enigmatic Valkyrie? ENTICED invites you into a world where love and war clash, leaving both women grappling with the ultimate choice between duty and desire.

Crown of Greed and Power
["You look like hell," she stated at last. Azlan scoffed, "Likewise." She continued to study him through suspicious eyes and he couldn't help but wonder what she looked like beneath all the dried blood.

"You don't know anything." "Don't I? It doesn't take a person with eyes to recognize all that built up anger and pain sizzling inside you." "Stay the fuck out of my business."] While grieving the loss of her boyfriend, huntress Nera Atherton made it to her mission to kill every beast she can hunt down to avenge her love. Two years pass when she crosses paths with a mysterious and arrogant man, Azlan, who claims to be searching for his sister's killer.

Feria Hagalder spent the first fourteen years of her life confined within a 'golden cage,' and the following four years as a 'ghost' hidden deep within the forest.

Yet, what is far more terrifying than the edge of a blade is the fact that her family members were erased from every record, as if they had never existed in this world at all. But amidst the silence, Feria hears voices... They are the fragments of distorted memories, visions of things that do not exist, and echoing reminders that her 'identity' might not be the role she is currently playing. As vengeance begins to devour the "little lamb" mask she has forged, Feria must make a choice: remain hidden in the shadows for the rest of her life, or step back into the vortex of lies to reclaim her erased name.
