"I already killed your mother, Cam." As the words left my enemy's mouth like a mocking sneer, I growled under my breath at the mention of my old name. Memories started to boil up that I had been wanting to squash deep into my heart. Bad memories. "As you can guess, I'm here to finish the job." He continued with that ever-present sinister smirk on his face. And in that moment, a sudden burst of confidence just appeared within me. Or blatant stupidity. 'I'll take either one.' I silently admitted to myself. I rolled my eyes at his so-called 'threat', not really intimidated in the least. "Yeah, like that went so well the first time. The first time, you fucked up enough to get caught by the police." I pointed out. "The second time, your grown-ass men got their asses handed to them by two teenagers." I snorted at him. "Your odds aren't looking too good here, Berti." ~•~ Losing her father? Lovely. Getting in a car accident with her aunt, uncle, and cousin and being the sole survivor? Fantastic. Losing her mother because a deranged psychopath holds a grudge even better than The Grinch? Amazing. Being ostracized from her own family save from her paternal grandparents, and getting the blame for her mother's death? Cherry on top of the cake. Having to make sure three idiotic twats don't get themselves killed because they couldn't mind their own bloody business? Bloody hell, that's an entire ice cream cake with ten pounds of gummy bears. ~•~ Join Grace Stanton as she faces her demons and the demons of her past all while trying not to commit murder against her three new friends. Fun times. (First book in the Gilded series) ~•~ [#1 Streetracer - 4/21/21] [#1 Gangs - 9/16/21] [#1 Boxer - 9/12/21] [#1 Fighter - 12/11/21] [#2 Boxing - 9/3/21] [#1 Girlpower - 2/12/21]

ᴜɴᴅᴇʀ ᴇᴅɪᴛɪɴɢ Killing her father, the General of the Demon Army, was the only way (Y/n)'s best friend and his lover could escape and in doing so, (Y/n) and Meliodas, the eldest son of the Demon King, started the Holy War. For 3,000 years, (Y/n) travelled with Meliodas and tried to find a way to break the terrible curse placed upon him and Elizabeth the Goddess. But for the past sixteen years, after Liz's death in the Kingdom of Danafor, (Y/n) has locked herself away from the world in order to protect her best friend and Elizabeth. Or at least, this is what she tells herself. However, the Demons that were locked away over 3,000 years ago have broken through the seal so (Y/n) must reemerge from the shadows to face them once again. With Meliodas, Elizabeth, and the Seven Deadly Sins by her side, (Y/n) must take down the Ten Commandments and protect the realm she has come to call home. Unfortunately, unbeknownst to her best friend, (Y/n) is running out of time because of the curse secretly placed on her 3,000 years ago by the Demon King. But there's a certain younger Demon Prince who's willing to destroy everything in his path to protect her. 🌸 💜 🌸 ❝ᴅᴏɴ'ᴛ ʟᴇᴛ ᴍᴇ ɢᴏ.❞ ❝ɪ ɴᴇᴠᴇʀ ʜᴀᴠᴇ. ᴀɴᴅ ɪ ɴᴇᴠᴇʀ ᴡɪʟʟ, (ʏ/ɴ).❞ 🌸 💜 🌸 ❝ ᴵ'ᵐ ʰᵒˡᵈⁱⁿᵍ ᵒⁿ ᵗᵒ ᵖⁱᵉᶜᵉˢ ᵒᶠ ᵘˢ ᵀʰᵃᵗ ᴵ ʲᵘˢᵗ ᶜᵃⁿ'ᵗ ˡᵉᵗ ᵍᵒ ᴵ ᵏⁿᵒʷ ᵗʰⁱˢ ⁱˢ ᵃ ᵈᵉˢᵖᵉʳᵃᵗᵉ ᵏⁱⁿᵈ ᵒᶠ ˡᵒᵛᵉ ᴮᵘᵗ ⁱᵗ ᶠᵉᵉˡˢ ˡⁱᵏᵉ ⁱᵗ'ˢ ʰᵒᵐᵉ ❞ 🌸 💜 🌸 𝗜 𝗺𝗮𝗱𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆'𝘀 𝗰𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗼𝗻 𝗖𝗮𝗻𝘃𝗮 𝗯𝘂𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗶𝗺𝗮𝗴𝗲𝘀 𝗱𝗼𝗻'𝘁 𝗯𝗲𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗼 𝗺𝗲!

(Y/n), the eldest child of the Purgatorian Queen, has been sealed away in the treacherous lands she was born in along with her younger brother and her callous mother. Her punishment for befriending both the Demon and Goddess race is to be forgotten by the rest of the world, including her lover, the eldest son of the Demon King, who was also cursed to love their best friend Elizabeth, the only child of the Supreme Deity. The moment to be reunited with Meliodas and Elizabeth finally arrives when Elizabeth's true lover, the youngest son of the Demon King, contacts (Y/n) to tell her that one of the Ten Commandments has successfully broken the seal placed on both the Demon Realm and Purgatory. With Zeldris by her side, (Y/n) intends to keep the promise she made to the one who changed her life, to bring an end to all three Gods to make sure that everyone can live in a peaceful world. (Y/n)'s love may have gotten her cursed but her love is the very thing that will drive her on to protect Meliodas. Enduring 3,000 years of hell was nothing and if saving Meliodas means turning the whole world against her then so be it. 🌸 💛 🌸 ❝ᴡᴇʟʟ, ᴡᴇʟʟ, ᴡᴇʟʟ. ʏᴏᴜ'ʀᴇ ᴘʀᴇᴛᴛʏ ᴅɪʀᴛʏ-ᴍɪɴᴅᴇᴅ.❞ ❝ᴏɴʟʏ ʙᴇᴄᴀᴜꜱᴇ ʏᴏᴜ ɪᴍᴘʟɪᴇᴅ ɪᴛ!❞ 🌸 💛 🌸 ❝ ᴴᵒʷ ᵈⁱᵈ ʷᵉ ᵍᵒ ᶠʳᵒᵐ ᵇᵉⁱⁿᵍ ᵗʰᵉ ᵖᵉʳᶠᵉᶜᵗ ᵗʷᵒ ᵀᵒ ˢᵗʳᵃⁿᵍᵉʳˢ ⁱⁿ ᵃ ʳᵒᵒᵐ? ᴵ'ᵐᵃ ⁿᵉᵉᵈ ˢᵒᵐᵉ ᵗʰᵉʳᵃᵖʸ ❞ 🌸 💛 🌸 𝗜 𝗺𝗮𝗱𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆'𝘀 𝗰𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗼𝗻 𝗖𝗮𝗻𝘃𝗮 𝗯𝘂𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗶𝗺𝗮𝗴𝗲𝘀 𝗱𝗼 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗯𝗲𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗼 𝗺𝗲!
Shadows of Elysium: The Laughing King by DalisJamesBunch

Once upon a time there was a world, much like our own. This world is gone. The machinations and wars of man saw to every manner of apocalypse. What was left is a world as nightmarish as it is fantastical. Gunslingers and swordsmen ply the same trade. Science, chemistry and magic are indistinguishable from one another. The monsters prey on all, but the true villains will always be human. Humans who have walled other humans in to the most violent part of The Husken Earth, The Wastelands. The Immortal Red Eyed Man sits atop this wall and uses his airships to drop experimental drugs into The Wasteland. Both mutants and parasites live under the shadow of the Abominations birthed. Monsters and men fear their brothers and sisters who fall prey to the allure of Elysium. It's hard to tell what is more addictive, the magical drug itself or the power it promises. {End Blurb} [Lore] Only one wall was ever built to protect the non-cannibalistic mutants of the Grey Coast and the inhabitants of Valoria from the true Wastelands; it has fallen. The remaining warriors built a great defense to fill the gap in the frontline wall. This outpost was overrun and the warriors that defended it became too few. They did the best they could and many died in the battles to keep the True Wastelands at bay. Survivers became little more than wanderers, sell swords and try hard defenders of the inhabited wastes. This is the tale of one such wanderer and his mission to unite the Wastelands against the abominations created from Elysium. This is the tale of The Wandering King and his sadistic counterpart.
