"You are not one of the dead," she whispered.
"No," it purred. The voice lingered in her chest like smoke. I am older. Stronger. Hungrier.
The shadows shifted closer. For the first time, she glimpsed an outline, shoulders like armor, a face hidden in obscurity save for two faint embers where eyes should be. When he leaned in, her breath stuttered.
Do you fear me, Aveline Mortua?
Her lips parted, words caught between defiance and truth. She wanted to say yes, wanted to scream it, but the sound tangled with something else rising in her throat, something she did not want to name.
He chuckled softly, hearing her silence as clearly as words. Fear and desire wear the same face, niña oscura.

Sorrow's Choice
My eyes landed on the third to last offered woman, the fire light dancing across her fair skin like waves of orange caressing her body, her long dark brown hair descending to her lower back in a wavy cascade, the red silk dress she wore hugged her body perfectly and dipped to show her breasts before continuing to flow down to pool on the forest floor beneath her feet as if it were worshiping her the way everything inside of me was longing to do at this moment. Causing an image of me running my hands over her unblemished porcelain skin to pass through my mind. Even though I knew she was scared, she held her head high and refused to show fear to the men in the clearing, both vampire and werewolves alike. She's the offering I will accept, no one else is worthy of this goddess , no one else will touch her perfect skin or I'll rip their fucking hands off.Complete
The Devil Within
I was dared to summon the Devil. We lit a candle. I said her name. I thought it was a joke, an urban legend whispered at Halloween parties between shots of tequila and bad decisions. But she came. The Devil wasn't fire and fury. She was a woman, beautiful, cruel, otherworldly. She kissed the space below my collarbone and branded me with her mark. Now my soul lives in a gemstone that hangs from her throat. She visits me in dreams. The mark pulses like a second heartbeat. And every time I whisper her name, she listens. I belong to her now. And I don't know if I want her to let me go.
I Accidentally Summoned a Demon
"I know you're a virgin but have you never been touched?" He asked, sliding his other hand down onto her leg. "What makes you say that?" Kat breathed, bracing her hands on the counter. "You react like someone who's never felt another's touch," Nex whispered, slipping his thumb under the band of her shorts. "So, have you not?" Kat opened her mouth to speak but stopped when his hand slid up from her leg, gliding up her stomach and stopping just below her breast. "Not even here?" He asked, following the curve of her breast with one finger, not touching, staying just below as he dragged it back and forth. "What about here?" He asked, sliding his hand down from her ribs to the bottom of her shorts then around to her butt, fingers nearly grazing it as he inched them up, under her pajamas. "I can say with certainty, never here," he said, lowering his other hand under the waistband of her shorts, touching the top of her underwear. "No, you've definitely never felt that before. I can hear your heart racing, I can feel your breathing, I can smell your body responding like it's never experienced these sensations before," he whispered, sliding a finger just underneath the band.

Bitten
Life has never seemed more serene than as I lay dying. Blood coats the forest floor beneath me, connecting with the foilage-covered soil in a parade of musty, copper smells. Through the rain drops that fall on me from the treetops, I can feel the icy breath of a dawning winter. It will be cold this year. It's a shame Ill never see it- I love the cold. Most cold. This cold that envelopes me now is hostile and uninviting, almost empty. They say that when you're faced with death, your life flashes before your eyes. The same could not be said for me. All I can think about in that moment, is the wolf. *COMPLETED* #1 Shapeshifter #1 Marked #16 RomanceComplete
The Dominant Demon (Finished)
"You're the only thing that I have ever truly loved," he states, leaning in closer. I try to scoot away, but he corners me on the bed, placing his body over mine. "Get off me!" I exclaim, angrily. "I'm not who you think I am. That can't be possible." His face comes closer to mine as he pins my wrists to the bed. "It is possible. I loved you for three, short, human years, and then you left me. Now that I have you back, though, I will never let that happen again." ***** Salem's earliest memories were of her parents preforming odd rituals. She never really understood anything they said in them, but she would always sit in the middle of the big, circled, star and giggle. At age 10, both of her parents died. She was thrown into foster care. Without them around to explain to her exactly what the rituals meant, Salem was never told that she was a sacrifice to a demon king in exchange for all the money they could ever ask for. On her 20th birthday, at the stroke of midnight, the demon king finally comes for her. She is completely unaware of the situation, and she begins to try her best at resisting his advances, but he is very possessive, very persuasive, and very determined to claim what is rightfully his.Complete
Serenity
"I thought..." she swallowed, "I thought I was just another girl to you." My heart fucking shattered. I pressed my lip against the corner of her mouth, not kissing her fully, just worshipping her. "Kamari, I could spend a thousand lifetime with you and it still wouldn't be enough," I whispered. "I'll never be strong to walk away from you, you're the only thing I'll remember even if I forget everything else." "I don't deserve that." She whispered, a tear slipping down her cheek. "Let me decide that." "I'm not the same anymore Sawyer." Her voice broke. "And I'll spend everyday of the rest my life trying to put you back together, stop trying to push me away or find flaws in yourself."
She is Fatal to Death (Standalone Story)
She's dead by the third chapter. Okay, it's a bit more complicated than that. Okay, it's A LOT more complicated than that. Renata wants nothing more than to pay her bills through her mildly boring office job and figure out whether she is still in love with her best friend. The latter half of that desire is just a sneak peak into her messy life-and it's only getting messier. Considering the paranormal world she is about to dive head first into, she will come to realize that figuring out her heart may just be the easiest part of this journey. Well, the endless supply of supernatural hotness in this story may beg to differ-but that's besides the point. Either way, it's gonna be a killer time ;) EXCERPT Chicken tacos it is. Right as Renata grabbed the ingredients, she turned to put them next to the stove, where a clean, plastic cutting board awaited. But as she moved, she was confronted by a stranger, an intruder, standing mere inches from her. Before she could scream, he was on her, slamming her against the fridge. Her back flashed with sharp pain. Her eyes pricked with fear as she drank in his uncovered face. Deeply tanned skin. Ruby red eyes-ruby red eyes? Thick, slashing eyebrows. Flat, broad nose. Buzzcut. Handsome. That was as far as she would go in complimenting him considering this guy held a knife to her throat. When he spoke, his voice came out like thunder. It held a thousand threats and a thousand secrets. It held promise of pain if provoked. "If you scream," he warned, mouth pulled in a slight snarl, "this ends quickly." She didn't dare nod against the blade. He noticed and amusement lit up for just a second in those devilish eyes. Oh, whoever the fuck this was, she already hated him. Considering her predicament, panic was the most prominent emotion coursing through her at the moment. "Good." He removed his hand "Now you're going to answer my questions." °°MATURE AND EXPLICIT CONTENT OF ALL KINDS, AND I MEAN ALL KINDS°Complete
Heart of the Orc II
😈🙈💋Mature/18+/Graphic💋🙈😈 My legs trembled uncontrollably as the sheer power of him overwhelmed me. Gods... this orc... His deep, guttural growl vibrated against my lips as he shrugged off his armor with ease, the sound of metal hitting the floor echoing in the room. His hands gripped my waist, lifting me effortlessly. My legs instinctively wrapped around his powerful frame, and I felt the hardness of his massive c**k pressing insistently against my soaked center.Complete
