When she starts a second job at the West Street Bakery, she becomes tangled up in Cash's life. When she decides to try and help him break the curse, she becomes subject to Evangeline's malice.

Embracing Pain (Book Three)
I'm so sorry for the confusion but this is the third book to my "Mark of the Royals" series. The second book is "Royal Pain: The Origin" which is also being sold at Amazon if you'd like a hard copy. So if you haven't read the first book and I'm sure most of you haven't read the second then this book will only confuse you till then. Also if some of the chapters are missing try updating your wattpad app or refreshing it. This book is completed so you should be able to read all of it. THIS IS THE UNEDITED VERSION SO DON'T HATE BECAUSE YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED. If you love two people at the same time, choose the second one. Because if you really loved the first one, you wouldn't have fallen for the second. - Johnny Depp It has been ten years since Darius and Deva have taken the throne. Their rule together had brought the kingdom to great triumph and the lycans are now more free to live without fear. Everything is going well for Deva and her life until an ancient lycan curse arises. The Relic Moon threatens to ruin every lycans dream of ever living in true peace with the vampires. Then an old enemy shows up to help Queen Deva contain the situation. Adamarius wants nothing more than to be in Deva's life and teach her how to embrace the pain of the curse. But with him will come the secrets of the past. Secrets that will bring everyone she loves to their breaking points. Anger will rise, trust will be tested, but most of all pain will be inevitable. And as always I promise the book will not disappoint.Complete
Fake Tales
"I don't know what kind of girl you think I am Greg" I mumbled. I was not the kind of girl who slept with guys on a whim. I wanted him, but not enough to abandon all reason. He took a step toward me, ignored my narrowed eyes and wrapped his arms around me. I wriggled and tried to pull away, but he only held me tighter. His face was impossibly close to me, expression serene to my fury. I could feel him already, pressing into my stomach. Fear shot through me, but the anticipation was equal. "I know exactly what kind of girl you are Maddy... that's the problem" He said simply. His lips crashed into mine, tasting every inch of me. I wanted more than anything to pull away, leave and never mention this again.... but I couldn't do it. The feel of him naked, warm and muscular against me rendered me speechless. I couldn't explain it, but our bodies seemed to fit together somehow and the anger I'd felt just a minute ago. That firey anger at him invading my privacy was gradually merging with the previous lust from last night. Now all I felt was an all consuming need for him to touch me. ....................................................................... Maddy Reynolds' life is a mess. Her best friend's brother Greg has just died and her two best friends Mel and Dom aren't speaking to each other. She has no one to talk to about her confusing feelings towards Greg or why Mel is so distant. Then at the funeral, she becomes friends with Tom Winter by pure chance and he seems to be the only one who understands her. And yet.... even he is keeping secrets from her. The sort of secrets that have the power to change everything. Maddy now has to decide to trust him or find out the truth on her own. Things would have been a whole lot simpler if she'd chosen the latter.Complete

They call them "Sigils" Sigils Bearers are rejected, executed, and aborted before they get a chance in life. The remaining old generation of Sigil Bearers decided to run away and make a place called The Unseen where their people can thrive and live. This has worked for quite some time until a Surface Dweller fell down into their peaceful world. Their Commander sees this as a problem but then gets an idea. This boy that has fallen into our little paradise has an issue. No Sigil, but a monster lives inside of him. What if knowing more about him could save her people? Show the Surface Dwellers that Sigil Bearers are human too? Maybe then they will stop killing children and slaying innocent Sigil People. Okay, Author to Reader moment, no this is not gonna be the only story about this case specifically. Think of it as a first season, short but okayish? Give me some brutally honest opinion, I haven't wrote in a very long time like this.Complete
Indigo
In the assumed year of 2332, approximately 280 years after a devastating nuclear attack changed the course of life on Earth, a once great city rose from the ashes. New Dallas had become a thriving post-war metropolis, and the ruling council sought to keep it that way. Books containing the sins of the past: racism, misogyny, radical religious ideology... all were kept from the population to avoid history repeating itself. This is the story of Indigo, a tough and tattooed street-smart young woman who tries to fight the system from behind the scenes. As she learns more and more about the past, she discovers that her future is threatened not by the council, but by a man with aspirations of dictatorship. She is suddenly thrust into the unlikely role of savior, with the lives of the lower class hanging in the balance. *** The first person who read this described it as The girl with the Dragon Tattoo meets Divergent. Indigo is not only an unlikely hero, but she has to battle her own demons, including the loss of her parents and her own promiscuity. Contains violence, language, implied sex, and: **rape trigger** (one discussion, and two attempted). If you like stories where the unlikeliest of people can make a difference, then this might be for you. Original story, all original characters. Part 1 of a three part series.Complete

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.

In The Night - Fallacy x Encre
Encre (Ink) is born of rogue and mortal blood, having now been cursed with the sensitivity towards silver. He goes through what is torture for him, only to realize later on, he would rather have that then anything else. For this demented story as well as all my other demented stories, have horrid twists and turns. For this is a story of tragedy and a bit of ending love. You do not have to enjoy, but please tell me what you think. I own my version of the story, but not the original story itself it goes fully to the beautiful creator of the original AU artist. Please be aware this is not the actual timeline at all, but some messed up version I created in my mind. Please note there are extremely strong themes as well... (Plot is very confusing if you have not read the last chapters of the book, please note)Complete
