"Was loving you a mistake Livia? You were my everything, how could you do this to me?" I stare at her in disbelief as she flashes a sinister smile and lunges at me. Everything around me becomes darker, and I feel myself falling onto the ground.
"maybe." She mumbles as i see a red glow in her eyes.
The last thing I hear before darkness consumes me.

"You think that was brutal?" he whispered, his voice dripping with malice. "You think snapping his neck like a twig was horrific? Wait... "wait until you see what I do to the next person who dares to touch you." Rose felt a wave of terror wash over her as his words conjured up images of unspeakable horrors. "I'll flay them alive," he hissed, his eyes glinting with sadistic pleasure. "I'll strip their skin from their bones, inch by inch, and make them scream for mercy. And when they're begging for death, I'll deny it to them. I'll keep them alive, trapped in a living hell of agony and terror." Rose felt like she was going to vomit, her mind reeling with the sheer horror of his words. "And you know why?" He spat, his face twisted in a snarl. "N..no, w..wh..why" rose asked with visible fear "Because you're mine. Because I own you, body and soul. And no one takes what's mine." " Only.mine .All. for .me" Rose was paralyzed with fear, her heart racing with terror. __________________________________________________ She is soft , he is cold She is kind , he is arrogant She is innocent , he is clever She is submissive , he is dominated she is an open book , and he is full of mystery He is a predetor and she is his prey does opposite attract everytime? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ∆ tropes ∆ Hidden truths Obsession Darkness Blackworld Grumpy ×sunshineComplete
The Reckoner
"And why do you need me?" "Well, you see, little queen, you're to marry my brother." There's silence and then, "Marry your brother?! Ha! You're more of a fool then I thought." I'm still snorting when I hear the sound of his horse move next to mine and I feel a large hand grip my face. I meet his stormy grey eyes, and even upside down I can see the wickedness inside them. "You're going to marry him, little queen," he says softly, "or you and your entire county will go up in flames." As I stare into his soulless eyes, I don't doubt his threat. "Who are you?" I whisper. "I thought you were smarter than that," he shakes his head and moves back to his position in front of me and Lomech. "Sweetheart, I am the Reckoner." ~There once were dragons. There once was love. There once was one. There once was Livda. Now, the land is divided in two, gentle Zychon and harsh Dunswathe. When the princess Khylani is mistaken for her sister Elenaf and kidnapped by the fearsome Reckoner, she must do everything in her power to defeat him and his wicked brother. But what happens when she finds herself falling hard for the very man she is supposed to kill?

Serpent in Shackles
Book 1 in a series! Despite what Emrys has been told, her Kingdom Abneer was not the only one to survive, King Reyes is not the only monarch, and monsters are real. Previously a soldier for the King, now betrothed to his son, Prince Roan, Emrys Ortega is starting to feel the burden of the title she never wanted. After repeatedly sneaking out of the palace leads to a sinister threat from the King, Emrys begins to worry for her family's safety. So when she learns that one of her kingdom's soldiers has been kidnapped by the Queen of another Kingdom, Valoria, she sees this as her opportunity to redeem herself in the King's eyes and protect her family. The only problem is that she had no idea the Kingdom of Valoria even existed. In fact, the Kingdom is unlike her own. It's filled with the same monsters from the stories she had been told-monsters of the night. In order to rescue the soldier, Emrys must team up with the notorious monster, the Shadow Knight, and his team of mercenaries. Through their missions and encounters with the monsters, Emrys not only learns the true extent of the lies she had been fed, but that the King has something planned, far bigger than she ever imagined, and finally realizes that her true enemies may not be the monsters after all.

The Sorcerer's Pet
He burned for control. She was born of chaos. Together, they'll shatter the laws that broke them-and forge a love fierce enough to change everything. - In a kingdom where magic is law and the powerless are sold like cattle, survival is a coin few can afford. Every season, the poorest are swept from the streets and auctioned off as Familiars - living mana batteries to feed the ambitions of greedy sorcerers. Forgotten. Disposable. Erissa expected pain when she was claimed by Lord Kaelen Carmentis - the coldest sorcerer in the court, and heir to one of the oldest bloodlines in the realm. She didn't expect the bond to awaken something inside her. And she certainly didn't expect that, in the silence between them, she would feel safe. But Familiars aren't meant to be felt. And whatever is growing between them... is breaking every rule. Because she was never meant to survive the system. She was meant to rewrite it - and burn the old world down in the process.Complete

Dragonfire: Celestia
In the world of Dragonfire, anything is possible. Flying, teleportation, invisibility, the ability to create a lightning storm on a whim...anything can be done. And anything can exist. Goblins, Orcs, Dragons, Dwarves, Kitsunes...there are countless races, and countless abilities. A world of fantasy in which anything is achievable. Or so it seems. After all, everything has a cost. And victory...victory is the most costing of all. Across the Black Sea, guarded by the Leviathan, there exists a large land separated into five territories. Celestia, Arvan, Ingres, Illicen, and Arumi. These five territories are named after those who control them. At least, that is how it used to be. From a distant land, the Snake Kingdom managed to bypass the Leviathan, and invade these five territories! Under the guidance of General Clauve, they crushed everyone in sight, until their only remaining opponent was Celestia. But they made a mistake, and Celestia capitalized. In a crushing defeat, the Snake Kingdom was bested after nearly 8 years of conflict. After the war ended, Albedo Aria, a soldier from Celestia, was promoted to the rank of General. But she didn't feel like a hero. Suffering from severe PTSD, this story follows her as she tries to overcome the nightmares of war, and move on from the terrible things she was forced to do. She was raised to be a soldier, and joined the war from the age of eleven. As a soldier of Celestia, she could never, and still cannot ever disobey any orders. When war calls, she must answer. Whether she is truly willing to or not. But after four years without conflict, surely things couldn't reach that state again? Or perhaps that isn't the case. After all, her dear cousin must deliver a letter to her. A letter telling her that the Snake Kingdom is on the rise in their very own land. A letter telling her that every sliver of happiness she has gained after the war ended will be lost. A letter telling her that she must return to war...Complete
A Whole Different Life (Book I)
"What would you rather? Floating in eternal darkness or...serving me? As my champion?" "Honestly? Neither, why in the world would I choose to be a servant in my next life?!" "Hm, then I suppose-" "Wait, I wasn't finished." She let out a sigh, trepidation heavy in my mind. She's spent her entire life in a world that was 50/50 for her...school was rough but she had companions. Her home life was great but it had its ups and downs. She was beautiful! But...she didn't feel that way. Perhaps another life could give her that? A sense of renewal, a chance to be someone better and greater than the person she originally was. "But! I'll take the latter, I could use a change. A chance to be a different me is always appreciated. After all, it's not like I'm going to be a world-renowned hero right?" ___________ What happens when you die? Do you go to a religious after-life?
