By what right do the talented answer the call to greatness?
Talent is latent; skill is practiced. Thus, we are born into our strength, and we need but find it. Many, however, find their strength in the many contracts offered by Astral and Hellish beings seeking to Sponsor a human. Just as humans need talent to ascend in society, so, too, do demons need the souls of the talented to become legitimized in Hell.
Alicia of Redwater, fearing the fall from grace into poverty, takes extreme measures to maintain her way of life, even dreaming of greater heights. To do it, she needs a soul -- a powerful soul, one she must mold and refine, herself.
Killian is a fencer residing in a small town, dueling with other local swordsmen in a labor to earn a sponsor which will take him beyond the reaches of his dull birthplace. Expecting money, fame, and glory, he trains and trains and trains, waiting for the day he can catch the world's attention and go national. Little did he know, however, his sponsorship came in the form of a temptress with dubious benevolence and a thousand secrets.

Moonlight Kisses
"Why are you doing that!" she whisper-screams while her eyes flit to the other guys, who are now immersed in something else that isn't us. I kiss that spot again, making her whole body shiver. It's oddly entertaining to watch what my slightest movements do to her. Usually it takes a lot more for a girl to unravel this way, but her breath hitches each time I go to kiss her neck. I could only imagine what my hands could do to her body. "You still didn't answer my question," she huffs harshly. And still she hasn't pulled away from me. Had I been any stupider, I'd say Jordyn was actually enjoying herself. If she hates this so badly, why hasn't she asked me to stop? [] In August, Jordyn Reeve starts attending Crestview Prep and not long after strikes a deal with Beau Clemonte, an arrogant, rude boy who happens to be the thing that can give her what she wants: his best friend, Jake Amherst. Of course, everything worthwhile must come with a price. Despite her outright opinions, Jordyn makes a deal with the devil. Or at least that's what that's what she saw at first -- a coldhearted, stubborn asshole that cared even less than she did. Her only intention was to see this out to get the guy. However, it wasn't that simple for Beau. Cover created by: @meha-k Started October 2020 Completed January 2022Complete
RISE
A privelaged, aimless young man becomes the victim of a centuries-old curse when he is given to the demon prince for purposes unknown. Down on his luck and penniless, nobleman Octavius Knight struck a bargain with a demon, promising one of his descendants to her in exchange for wealth, power, status, and prosperity. The demon who answered his call was none other than the Queen of Hell herself, and she has her own reasons for granting his request. By providing this fortune for not only Octavius, but generations of his descendants, she breeds a collection of intelligent, strong, and beautiful humans for her son, the heir to the throne, to choose from. Aaron Knight knew the story his entire life, but never expected that he would be the one chosen, nor did he know what to expect when it happened. Now, he must navigate an unexpected marriage to a flamboyant and excitable demon, and acclimate to his new royal obligations. Leaving his complacent but comfortable lifestyle behind, he must find a way to rise to the occasion.Complete
Technicolor Beat
"It's like . . . you know how at the end of summer camp or college everyone packs all their stuff up and drives off before you so they can go home and reunite with family, and the whole camp is empty and you're standing in the middle of your vacant dorm because your ride isn't here yet?" ". . . Yeah?" "It's like that. Immortality is being left behind at camp alone, and you don't know why." She couldn't remember her name. Didn't really matter, plenty of substitutes available. They almost numbered the amount of years she'd been in this world. Luckily for her, there was one reason she was still here, and as soon as she figured out what the hell it was she could fix it and move on. He remembered her. And what she looked like, how she took her coffee, everything. He couldn't get her out of his head. She was his muse, a glimpse into the impossible where he may finally have something to write about. But what happens when inspiration turns into love, especially with someone who is unable to reciprocate it? Does tragedy or intimacy await them? What is destiny, really?
