Imperial law enforcer Amaranthe Lokdon is good at her job: she can deter thieves and pacify thugs, if not with a blade, then by toppling an eight-foot pile of coffee canisters onto their heads. But when ravaged bodies show up on the waterfront, an arson covers up human sacrifices, and a powerful business coalition plots to kill the emperor, she feels a tad overwhelmed.

Worse, Sicarius, the empire's most notorious assassin, is in town. He's tied in with the chaos somehow, but Amaranthe would be a fool to cross his path. Unfortunately, her superiors order her to hunt him down. Either they have an unprecedented belief in her skills... or someone wants her dead.All Rights Reserved

"The Heart Of Eden". Assassin's creed love story. by Blueswritting

"A story about a young woman who owns an art shop in a city called Republic City, a place where everyone can learn about the history of the world and live peacefully. However, the war between Assassins and Templars is still ongoing. When the power of Eden transports the main Assassins and Templars to this era, they must adapt to their new environment. What will happen when both sides fall for the same girl? Find out when you read this book." Side note: I've never watched or played the newer Assassin's Creed games in my opinion I don't find them that interesting I'm sorry for those who like Bayek, Basim, Alexios, and Evior, however, I am interested in getting around to watching the gameplay of Origins and Mirage because I do like Bayek and Basim. But I just don't know them as much as I do with the OG Assassins. As always All credits goes to the original creators.

The Emperor's Edge 3: Deadly Games by LindsayBuroker

When you’ve been accused of kidnapping an emperor, and every enforcer in the city wants your head, it’s hard to prove yourself an honorable person and even harder to earn an imperial pardon. That doesn’t keep Amaranthe Lokdon and her team of outlaws from trying. When athletes start disappearing from the Imperial Games, they may finally have an opportunity to show the emperor that they’re on his side. If she and her comrades can get to the bottom of such a public mystery, they’re sure to get the credit. But plans go awry when Amaranthe’s own men start plotting against each other, the new ally she’d hoped to acquire tries to turn her in, and her best fighter—and closest friend—disappears. Maybe getting involved wasn’t such a good idea after all… Deadly Games is the third book in The Emperor's Edge series. Books 1 and 2 are up on Wattpad: http://www.wattpad.com/story/3815885-the-emperor%27s-edge http://www.wattpad.com/story/5744445-the-emperor%27s-edge-2-dark-currents All of the books may be purchased from Amazon, Smashwords, Barnes & Noble, Apple, and Kobo.

Night of Zealotry (Assassin Without a Name #3) by scottmarlowe

Take out the mark, retrieve the scroll, and avoid getting killed by his protection detail of Black Guard mercenaries. That was the job. Simple enough, or so the Assassin Without a Name thought, until he finds himself smack in the middle of three organizations all vying for possession of the item he just stole. Of the three, the worst is the Jakaree, a group of fanatical priests willing to kill--and to use deadly technology--to fulfill their mysterious goals. But by making the Assassin Without a Name a target, they're about to get a lesson in death themselves from one of the best.

Ten of Swords (Draft Only) by OopsSoup

Names of characters subject to change Boss is a single mother and the commander of a small squad of rebel agents who dream of putting an end to the corruption of those in power. In the face of food shortages and dwindling finances, the leaders of the rebellion have begun to take drastic action, which Boss has been strongly and vocally in opposition to. This voice of dissonance is not something they can afford to let go, and so an attempt is made of the lives of Boss and her subordinates. Those who survived the attempt owe it to a mysterious mage, who without knowing them or their cause, risked his life to help them get to safety. But there is no such thing as a good samaritan in times of turmoil such as these, and Boss is convinced that this sorcerer has ulterior motives. She has more immediate concerns however, such as a gift from the mythical ferryman, who asks that she kill on his behalf to prevent the greatest threat to survival that humanity has ever known.

Serpent of Desire by lustenvy

Ilaria's centuries-old exile is bad enough - eternally banished from the underworld and stuck selling potions and poisons to humans. Her punishment? Guard the portal to her lost home, allowing anyone to enter while she remains forever shut out. But when a murder takes place in her shop, the tables turn. Now, the enforcers - the very creatures who redeem souls for their own deadly pasts - want to bring her to trial. Her only chance at freedom is to solve the murder herself, but there's a catch: she has to work with Hawke, an enforcer who has hated her since day one. Stubborn, powerful, and impossible to ignore, Hawke is more of a roadblock than a partner, and their fiery clashes are only heating up. With the threat of execution looming and tensions running high, Ilaria and Hawke must navigate a world of secrets, soul debts, and a past neither of them can outrun. Can they solve the mystery before her fate is sealed, or will their animosity be her downfall?

A storm is brewing in Vorbereich. Twenty years after a war with the Lindtin powers that ended in horrible losses for the country and its allies, the country is still as broken and divided as it was when the war ended... except, of course, for the ruling classes, who go to balls and dinner parties while the rest of the country struggles to survive. However, one man believes he can change that: a man that is known simply as the Archangel. Many believe that what he does is going to finally unify Vorbereich and bring the country back to the strength it had before the war. However, when an outlaw, an heir to a fortune, and a police inspector cross paths, it becomes clear to them that his intentions are less than pure. And that it's up to them to stop him, before another war breaks out. Note: This is a sample.
