Thousands of years have passed since the last human city was seen, and almost all humans seem to have vanished without a trace. Without human intervention or threat, wildlife seemed to flourish and change. New life seemed to come out from the shadows. Dragons.
Dragons now rule the earth, building tribes and kingdoms or living solitary lives. Dragons have now taken the role of an apex predator, but how can they fight for that role when something, someone, has been lurking in the shadows? Despite not being seen for thousands of years, a dangerous predator thought to have been wiped out is making a return. With their return, their smoke has begun to plague the sky, prey that the dragon's hunt has begun to go missing, and worst of all, dragons themselves have started to go missing.
But the dragons have taken notice; they know they are being attacked and plan not to go down without a fight. QuickTalon, a young drake born in the savanna, was raised to be a healer, but when his mentor and grandmother go missing, he makes it his goal to find her. But along the way, other dragons and drakes have been found dead, the only killers in sight being humans. But the only problem is that humans are supposed to be extinct. Having wiped themselves out aeons ago. With a dangerous journey to find out what's been happening and who has been causing dragons of all kinds to vanish, it's up to a stubborn Terralythos, a Pyronyx, a Dragon and an elusive Polar Drake to set off and find out what has caused so many powerful creatures to go missing. Time is rapidly running out, and only the ancients can help them now.

The Claimed
They said the Hunt was sacred. That if I was chosen, it meant fate. But fate didn't feel like a mouth on my skin or claws at my back. It felt like blood. Mine. For years, I stayed hidden. Quiet. Unclaimed. I stole seeds from the state fields, grew food in secret, fed my family from soil and silence. I did everything right - stayed beneath their radar, beneath their noses. I didn't make waves. I didn't ask for more. But monsters never forget a scent. And when the Hunt came, I was scented. Tracked. Taken. I stabbed him. I buried the blade in his shoulder and watched him bleed. It didn't matter. Because he still bit me. And the world saw. Now my face is on every screen. The girl who didn't run. The girl who fought back. Some call me a rebel. Some call me a mate. But they all forget one thing. I wasn't made to be claimed. I was made to survive. And if they want to collar me, cage me, crown me - they'll have to reckon with everything I've kept buried beneath the roots. Because I am not the flower. I'm the fire beneath it.

The Queen's Slave (Book 1)
"So." She mused, sliding one black nail across her lip in a sensual caress as she stared at me with eyes the color of molten gold. "You are the one they call Huntress." Disregarding the pain in my side from the most recent beating, I straightened my shoulders and stood tall, my chin jutting out in defiance. "Yes." "Mm." Those intriguing eyes watched me from her languid position on the throne. "But, you are not just a huntress, are you?" I allowed the predatory instincts I usually worked so hard to keep hidden, to surface, feeling the burning of my eyes and shifting of bones under my skin. A slow grin slid across my face as my beast stared back at her through my human skin. The Queen didn't react to my sudden change of character, instead choosing to lean forward in interest. "How fascinating." • Once, the world was ruled by humans and technology. They were governed by a president that made choices for all. Vampires, werewolves alike hid their existence from the humans for centuries, blending in as a whole. Now, they hid no more. States are now territories governed by kings and queens, humans are regarded and used for no more than their blood and body before they are discarded and forgotten. Werewolves and vampires were at war, and it was said that the wolves had all been but snuffed out, save for one. When Adira is captured while hunting outside her homeland, she is unexpectedly sold to the Queen in the North. Wolf blood is sacred, it is said to hold inexplainable powers, and as the only wolf-borne known to humans and vampires alike, Adira fears for her life. Thrown into a world governed by everything she's been trained to hate, Adira fights for her rightful place in the world, a seat at the Queen's side. But proving her worth won't be easy, the price for failure is her life.Complete

Rejected: Pregnant with the Alpha's Fated Son
I was chosen by the Moon Goddess, only to be rejected by my Alpha in front of our entire pack. Cast out. Broken. Alone. I was forced into the unforgiving wilderness with nothing but the tattered remains of my life. But I wasn't entirely alone. I carried a secret-his secret. The son of the Alpha who marked me as unworthy, the heir he would never know. To survive, I had to become someone else. The weak, invisible Omega died that night, and from her ashes, a warrior was born. I found a new power flowing through my veins, a gift from the Goddess I never understood.

But when a deadly plague sweeps through the pack that threw me away-a sickness only I can cure-my past comes hunting for me. The Alpha who broke my soul now needs my help. He doesn't know that I'm his only hope. And he certainly doesn't know that I carry his son. Can I save the people who betrayed me without losing myself?

Her Secret
I sighed heavily as I scanned the forest. I had heard something or someone to be specific, wandering about. I decided I would leave once I affirmed they weren't a danger. "What are you doing in my land, human?" A deep enchanting voice spoke I sighed once again "I'm not human, just smell like one" I spoke as I turned around to see the most stunning man I have ever seen "Mate" he spoke "Find another female, Lycan" I spat He only growled at me in response. Men. My brother was the same way. It's kinda funny how all, correction, most shifter men think alike. I would've thought he would be different, after all, he is Lycan. Something of myths. But then again, so are the supernatural. I turned away from him, not even looking at him. I didn't want to remember what he looked like so I didn't give him a second glance. I heard him move closer. I quickly grabbed the knife out of my holster and threw it at a tree next to him. He stops moving then. "Heed my warning. It's the only one you'll get" I spoke coldly "I will find you. Then you will have no escape from me" he spoke as he backed away I could understand. Lycans, like lion-shifters, were going extinct. Therefore mates were even more important to them. But, even if I understood I still didn't want to be someone's mate. After all, I was Destiny Requalhi, Creator and Destructor of All. ------------------------------ Destiny Requalhi, a girl with a rough past and set in stone future. She wanted to be a normal lioness when she grew up but got so much more. She constantly is looking behind her back ready for a random attack to bestow itself upon her.

Soul of a Demon
For ages beyond memory, the dragons ruled the Seven Realms. Their dominion brought long centuries of peace, though never without cost. Vast appetites drained the land: herds vanished, harvests withered, and sometimes even the people themselves became prey. At last, the realms united, driving the dragons back to their own realm. The portals between realms were sealed with unbreakable magic. Or so the victors believed. The Seven Realms are seven worlds, each occupying the same point in space but spinning in separate dimensions, each in its own universe. A rare, natural anomaly binds them together, like spokes meeting at a single hub. Through this pivot point, wormholes formed, and gates opened, allowing travelers to pass between realms with ease. From this woven cosmos comes the tale of the last dragon and the prophecy that would turn every gaze toward her as the only hope against the demons and their Horde. The Demons hunted the dragons trapped in their realm until only three remained. By cunning or miracle, they escape into another realm. Of these, one was small, but quick-witted. She alone evaded the fate of her companions. Now she flees through lands her kind once ruled, hunted as prey by a relentless predator. From the lips of the Oracle of the Great Wizard's Coven, the very circle that had exiled her kind, came the final prophecy. The words were spoken, then the Oracle mysteriously vanished. Can this meek creature thwart the will of the Demon Horde Master? And what doom awaits the realms if she fails?Complete

Soon after we learnt that we weren't the only species people began going missing. Some were unlucky and taken as something that the Beasts called a Mate that one word made fear spread throughout my veins, I would rather sell my soul than have one of them mutts chain me to them.

Only one of them came back, two months was the longest we lasted before we were overpowered by them. Six years of living in this dysfunctional environment and my hatred had never dwindled. Some people still believed in god and had faith in him, I didn't know what I believed in but I prayed like everyone else that I would get through another day without hearing the soul crushing word 'Mate'.
