Kiem sat in his dimly lit office, the afternoon sun slanting through the dusty blinds and casting long shadows across his cluttered desk. A faint but pleasant scent of petrichor, the earthy smell of rain after a dry spell, hung in the air, carrying a sense of tranquility. He was engrossed in a well-worn paperback, its pages whispering forgotten stories of distant lands and adventure.
"Just a few more chapters to save the princess," Kiem muttered, turning a page with a rustle, it was his favorite edition of the book series.
A sudden, sharp rap on the old wooden door shattered the peaceful atmosphere. Kiem glanced down at himself, feeling suddenly self-conscious. His usual work attire had been replaced by a comfortable fleece sweatshirt and a well-worn pair of relaxed-fit jeans, a testament to his escape into the world of the book. "Coming!" he called out, shoving the book shut with a thump and tucking it under his arm.
The old door groaned as it swung ajar, revealing a disheveled Adler. His typically cheerful countenance was now filled with anxiety, and sweat glistened on his brow. Not only was he warm, Kiem realized with a sudden shock, but it seemed that Adler was practically emanating nervous energy.

The Canvas of Shadows by ThatTeenAuthor1
10 parts Complete
In the tranquil expanse of the university gallery, where the soft glow of morning sunlight filtered through the tall windows, stood the once-cursed painting, now vibrant with newfound life. Its surface seemed to shimmer with an ethereal energy, casting a spell of awe upon all who beheld it. The moonlit forest depicted within the frame now danced with a luminous brilliance, each brushstroke imbued with a sense of vitality and freedom. Shadows no longer clung to the edges of the canvas but danced in the warm light, as if celebrating their newfound liberation. The figures within the painting-the maiden with her flowing gown, the gallant knight with his gleaming armor, the enigmatic sorcerer with his swirling cloak-all stood proudly before their once-captive audience. Their eyes sparkled with gratitude and wonder, reflecting the journey they had embarked upon together. The maiden's face, once etched with sorrow, now radiated with joy, her eyes alight with the promise of a future unbound by the chains of the past. Beside her, the knight stood tall and resolute, his sword held high in a gesture of triumph, a testament to the courage that had led them to victory. And at the center of it all stood the sorcerer, his presence commanding and enigmatic. Though his features remained shrouded in mystery, his eyes held a wisdom that spoke of centuries spent in solitude, a guardian of secrets long forgotten. Together, they formed a tableau of hope and redemption-a testament to the enduring power of friendship and the indomitable spirit of the human heart. And as Eleanor gazed upon the painting, she felt a sense of peace wash over her-a feeling that, despite the trials and tribulations that lay ahead, everything would be alright in the end.

UPDATED WEEKLY He finally released my legs, allowing me to slide down his body until my feet hit the floor, but that was as far as he let me go. Heat was radiating off him scorching me all the way down my spine as he held me tightly against him. His quick breaths were falling on the back of my neck with a tingling warmth that brought goosebumps to the surface of my skin. Placing one large hand on my shoulder, he wrapped my long brown hair around his other. Gently, he tugged on my dark mane, pulling my head to the side and exposing the tender column of my neck. Bringing his nose down to the crook there, he inhaled deeply, a rumbling "mmmm" escaping his lips. My mouth went dry. "Are-" I swallowed. "Are you going to mark me?" I manage in a stuttered whisper.

**COMPLETED*** This is book 2 and can be read as a standalone but I recommend you read "Fated" first. Something caught my eye and when I looked up in the mirror I saw Rykan stepping inside, shutting the door and sliding the lock in place. My heart hammered in my chest as he approached me. He came right up behind me, setting his hands on my hips, never breaking our gaze through the mirror. "Kora," he murmured, stepping closer until my back brushed against his chest. His hand slid down to the end of my skirt and he flattened his palm against my bare leg, sliding his hand up my skirt. "I'm married," I blurted, swallowing hard and trying to ignore how much I liked the way it felt having his hands on me. "Hm," he grunted, narrowing his eyes as he continued his ascension up my outer thigh. His touch sent tingles all over my body, sending heat right between my legs. He gripped my leg and suddenly turned me, his hand now palming my ass as he pulled me against him, his teeth scraping against my neck as his other hand up to my neck. "Didn't seem to bother you when you had me down your throat last night," he said, wrapping his hand around my throat and lifting his head to give me one of those heart-stopping stares. "In fact, I believe you started that, angel." Koralie always felt that there was a part of herself missing. A part she hadn't yet discovered. Stuck in a toxic marriage, she's navigating her way out of it when she meets Rykan, a mysterious stranger she feels an undeniable draw towards although she isn't sure why. Things become even more intense when he starts showing up in her dreams, claiming he is a werewolf and they are mates. An even more unexpected turn of events comes when Kora starts looking into the supernatural world and finds it is not as foreign to her as it should be.

"Doing what?" he had an arrogant smile on his face and he got closer to her. "That." she nodded towards his closing in on her. Her breathing and her heart beating picked up speed. "Is it wrong for me to want my own wife?" his own body was nearly pressed against hers and he rested his head between her head and shoulder. "It is when you, just days before, resented the very fact that I was alive." she closed her eyes, trying to steady her breathing. "Maybe I've had a change of heart." he looked at her. She looked at him with her blue eyes. "I don't think so." "What if I said I loved you?" he whispered hoarsely.

Kalisa Warner is a 22 year old orphan who works for an assassins agency, she's tasked with one of the hardest cases of her generation that so many others have failed to solve. Meeting new people along the way and gathering evidence she must always stay in her toes, you never know who to trust. Here's and sample from the first chapter: "I'm still standing." I whisper reassuringly to myself. Everyone goes through tough times in life, sometimes it's all you know, sometimes when you least expect it. But the only reason there's so much dysfunction in this world of ours is because people forget that they're not the only ones who suffer. Everything I've ever gone through, all the heartaches and lonely nights have all led up to this moment. I know nothing will be the same after I receive this assignment, I'm counting on it in fact. The room I'm standing in is on the top floor of a towering skyscraper inside my boss's office. It's a smaller space than I expected with medals and certificates lining the walls, and a sleek glass table with its back to the large array of widows. He sits on a large black chair, his elbows resting on the table. He runs his caramel hands through his golden locks, exposing a neck tattoo that I hadn't noticed before. He's wearing a sharp black suit and his deep green eyes scan my figure, looking for cracks or weaknesses, assessing me before I even open my mouth. Perhaps wondering if I'm ready for the assignment I'm about to receive. I straighten my shoulders, adjusting my posture, and place my hands behind my back, interlacing them. He leans back in his chair, eyeing me again. "Good afternoon Ms. Warner" He says in a deep voice.

Suddenly a loud bang had sounded as my father's office door slammed opened revealing a disheveled Edward. My eyes scanning him from head to toe as he was now breathing erratically. He looked like he just got out of bed with his bed hair, his clothes all wrinkled and only the two top bottom was undone. His belt was not even clasps and he only had one shoe on. "Edward." I gasps rising from my chair as he ran to me embracing me. "Are you okay? You're not hurt in any way are you?" His voice laced with worry. Sniffing him, he smelt of something sweet even from his messy attire. What has he been doing? I had wondered. "I came here as fast as I could once I heard the news." He pants, his eyes scanning my entire body, flipping me around as he also scans my back side. If it were any other day I would've gush at his concern. However that's the least of my worries after all I'm not the one who was targeted. My thoughts were soon replace by fury. Slowly pushing him away I wanted to yell at him, scold him for not being there. Maybe if he was there then this wouldn't have happened. "Where were you?" Instead I had asked calmly. No point in getting angry. I already have a lot on my plate. "I was...uh..busy." He was busy? What can he possibly be doing that required his attention elsewhere. ***** All she wanted was to live her life peacefully but certain things occur and she realize along the way she is not like any other girls out there. She is something more.
