Betrayed. Poisoned. Left for dead.
Kenna's life shatters in a single, blood-soaked evening. What was supposed to be an innocent gathering around the fire turns into a brutal act of treachery as her closest friends-people she trusted with her life-tear everything away from her. Poison laces her veins, a blade slashes through her sister's throat, and the last thing Kenna remembers is the taste of blood and the coldness of betrayal.
But death isn't the end.
When she awakens, gasping for breath and clawing her way back from oblivion, she finds herself in the company of three peculiar students and a powerful witch. Confused but alive, Kenna learns that she's been touched by something dark and ancient-something that shouldn't be possible. Her sister, however, remains buried by the lake, a reminder of what was stolen from her.
Determined to survive, Kenna forms an uneasy alliance with the witch and her students, seeking refuge in their strange world of hidden magic and forbidden secrets. But vengeance is never far from her mind. As she learns to harness her newfound abilities, whispers of necromancy swirl around her existence, making her both feared and hunted.
Kenna's resurrection is not just a fluke-it's a sign. There are forces at work, shadows creeping from the edges of the world that threaten everything she knows. And if she's going to get her revenge, she'll need to embrace the darkness simmering within her.
Her enemies thought they buried her. They were wrong.
The girl they tried to kill is back, and this time, she won't fall so easily. In a world where loyalty is fragile and power is everything, Kenna must decide: cling to her past, or forge a new destiny from the ashes of betrayal.

"Please help me... I'll do anything. I just want my mother to live." I cried, tears streaming down my face in torrents, my body trembling in fear. Kael stared down at me, his glowering eyes devoid of any emotion and a chill ran down my spine. "Anything, you say?" He asked, pointing the edge of his sword against my neck and I stiffened, refusing to breathe. "Anything... " I whispered, my voice small yet resolute. A corner of his lips quirked up, not quite forming a smile. "How about my slave?" ***** She was supposed to be his captive, not his salvation.

She felt his surprise. She felt his light extinguish as he died. Then there was nothing. Nothing. Her head was swimming like it was underwater. She couldn't move. She couldn't move. Her vision blurred, a man was speaking but she couldn't hear his words. She felt the sword in her chest, but it wasn't there. He killed him. He killed him. Breathe. Did she stop? Breathe. The man, she could hear him speaking. What was he saying? Breathe. She inhaled a deep breath. And another. Then another. Things started to clear. "Breathe. That's right," the warrior coaxed. She started to take another settling breath, and his face came more into focus. The first thing she noticed was his piercing green eyes. She had never seen eyes quite like that before. She stared into them, mesmerized. He mimicked a breath and she took it with him. She was coming back. "I will not hurt you," the man kneeling before her promised. Anna knew better than to believe him. What was it he had said? Oh. "You...you said...you said 'no witnesses'." She was shaking violently. She took another deep breath.

DIVINE LOVE
Hello everyone.... So this is my first story content that I write. This story is totally based on fiction...in which have a lot of fantasy, mystery, romance and thriller...it's just an imagination. If you start reading, so you can't stop to yourself to know...what's the next? "This is the tale of a girl and a boy-two souls bound by destiny. She is a girl who carries endless warmth within her heart, a softness spun from dreams and devotion. Her love for him is fierce yet tender, an intensity that could melt even the coldest of hearts. She alone holds the power to turn his silence into song, his cruelty into care, and his heartlessness into a divine, love-soaked tenderness. For him, she is not just love-she is transformation itself. He, on the other hand, is a man carved from stone-ruthless, unfeeling, feared by the world. His heart knows no gentleness, no mercy, no emotion... except when it beats for her. For her, he burns with a passion that borders on obsession, a divine fire that consumes only in her presence. To the world he remains untouchable, cold and cruel, but before his little beloved, he softens, melts, and surrenders-becoming hers in the truest, most profound way." "Both of them had walked through tragedies so dark that their hearts were scarred forever. Yet, neither of them knew that life was about to change completely. From enemies, they would slowly turn into lovers-destined for each other. When together, they created a kind of magic that only true souls can make. They became each other's biggest support system, healing one another in ways no one else ever could. In every prayer, they carried each other's name, and with every heartbeat, they kept falling deeper into a divine and eternal love." I need your love and support. I am a little bit nervous but it's gives me an excitement also and some another level of happiness. Interesting twists on the way.

Soul Mates
Watching Anna, she was actually down stairs sipping water quietly. I couldn't help but stare at her. Her usually midnight drink. "Thirsty." "Oh, uncle you startled me." She had backed away from me as I tried to touch her. I had been needing her touch more and more. "Why are you so afraid of me?" "What are you talking about?" She nervously giggled as she crept backwards. "I have notice a few things and well you cower at my touch. Tell me Anna, do I frightened you?" Have I in someway? I wondered. "No, uncle," she stepped closer to me pressing her palm on my chest proving that she is not the least bit frightened. "You don't scare me one bit." Her lips were smiling but her eyes had told me a different story. "The prove it." I was now leaning as she had licked her own lips. Fuck I want to taste those lips. "How." Her breath sent me shivers down my core. Further leaning in, I pulled her closer, my hand now firmly on her back as my lips made contact with hers. She hesitated at first, I could feel she was withdrawn but that didn't stop me from taking what I wanted. Kissing her made me forget. I know I shouldn't but I wanted to forget what I had lost. Is it wrong of me to think like that? But this kiss felt so right. Why? She felt perfect beneath me. At that moment I wanted more, I wanted everything she would give me. I wanted her. "What the fuck is going on here." The lights instantly turned on revealing a very pissed of Megan. "Megan I can explain." "How, when I just witness you kissing the one who had killed our child." ***** Do you believe in soul mate because we are destined to be with that one person that makes us whole....Complete
Hearts In The Shadows
Unable to resist any longer, I closed the distance, pressing my lips gently against his. Our pace was slow at first, but then he lost control, and his kiss became rougher, more urgent. He pulled me onto his lap, straddling him. "Has anyone touched you here before?" Blake broke the kiss, his voice impossibly low as he lightly brushed his thumb across my hardened nipple. Ripples of pleasure coursed through me, and my groin began to throb, my underwear soaked with desire. My breath hitched from his touch, and I shook my head. He let out a light growl and pinched my nipple harder. "Has anyone touched these before?" he repeated. I whimpered, "No... no one but you." Blake let out a deep growl and kissed me roughly again. I was consumed by him. I tore my lips from his to suck in a much-needed breath. I could feel his arousal straining against my leg, his breathing heavy. _______________________________________________________ My name is Elara Whittingham.
