Summary
Kai finally has a home in Tennga. With Marta at her side, they've rebuilt their delivery service, ADL, now staffed entirely by Fae. Business is thriving, but even as she settles into this new life, the past refuses to stay buried.
When the Seelie Queen summons Kai through her messenger, Lord Briscelous. She and Lady Allara travel to court-only to be attacked by a creature unlike anything they've seen before. The queen aids them, revealing the creature's origins in East Africa. But before they can unravel the mystery, another attack follows them home to Tennga.
Determined to uncover the truth, Kai and her friends embark on a journey to East Africa, chasing whispers of a forgotten past. Her adoption, once a footnote in her life, becomes the key to a legacy she never asked for. She learns of a father, neither human nor Fae, but something else entirely -of an ancient people who forbade love between their kind and any other race, Fae included and of a choice made to flee rather than submit to their rule. Kai will have make a choice as well and deal with so much more.
Faced with a family who sees her as theirs by right of blood and the family she's built through loyalty and love, Kai must decide where she belongs. Will she choose her friends and the family she has built for herself. Will the blossoming love between her and a certain sorceress be strong enough to weather this storm? Will she succumb to the very fate her father once escaped? And can Allara break through the walls of a heart hardened by lies and lost to black magic?
Blood may be thicker than water, but which will withstand the trials of fate, the weight of destiny and the test of time?

It was gentle and soft, something I never expected from a guy like him. He moved his right hand from my cheek to my waist, tugging me against him, and molded our bodies together. A wave of electricity went down to my core when he licked my lips. "Open your mouth, Bella." His commanding husky voice against my lips jolted my heart, and I followed his order like a slave. With no control, a moan erupted from my throat as his tongue met mine. It was barely audible, but I knew he heard it when he smiled against my lips. He swept my hair from my face to my back and gathered them in his fist. He tugged my head back, deepening the kiss, and my heart thrashed in my chest. At that moment, I didn't need drugs to know what being high felt like because his lips were enough to send me on nine clouds. Just once and I was addicted to it.

The Burden We Share
Genre: Action | Fantasy | Romance Her hair was as light as daylight, and her eyes burned like the sun itself. Liora stood frozen, heart hammering as the woman descended from her throne-each step elegant yet commanding. The closer she came, the heavier the air felt, until Elunara stood directly before her, gaze sharp and unrelenting. Liora tried to look away. She failed. Elunara tilted her chin upward, forcing their eyes to meet. "So... you're the one I'm meant to marry?" she asked, her voice smooth like honey laced with venom. Her eyes roamed over Liora's face, slow and deliberate. Liora knew she should answer. Knew silence might be taken as disrespect. But this woman-goddess-like in beauty, terrifying in presence-had stolen the words right from her throat. Elunara smirked, leaning in close enough that Liora could feel the warmth of her breath. She traced a finger along Liora's bottom lip, eyes flicking down with unsettling intent. "I don't bite, darling," she whispered huskily. A pause. "Well... not yet." ⸻ ⚠️ Content Warning: This story includes mature themes such as explicit sexual content (smut), strong language, violence, discussions of incest, and instances of homophobia.

She'd spent many years playing in this forest as a child. While Selene had enjoyed her novels in the warmth of the house, a blanket wrapped around her narrow shoulders, Sidra always came home covered in mud and scrapes from hours out in the wilderness. She'd take an axe out into the forest and pretend to fight off monsters, the terrifying Mystics that her grandmother had told her stories about. She'd pretend to fight Lycans, knocking out their massive teeth one by one. She'd stand atop rocks and throw her axe at the trees, pretending they were wood nymphs come to steal her away. She'd always return home and tell Selene about the monsters she'd fought that day, spinning together a story of courage and bravery for her little sister. She felt that pain in her heart again as she thought of those times. Through the years, she'd stop going into the woods to play, and she'd instead find stories for Selene. Books of all sizes and shapes, no matter the content, because it made her feel close to her sister just as she had before her parents died. She thought of her family now, how she was all alone. Her parents had been gone for years, her grandmother, and now even Selene was missing somewhere. She needed to find her sister, she couldn't lose the last bit of her family. **Complete
