Slayer of Shadows - A Shadows of the Sun Short Story
The town of Black Hollow is rotting from the inside. Its people vanish in the dead of night, their bodies later found drained of life. Residents tell of a Vex -- a shadow demon lurking in the alleys, preying on those who dare to walk after sundown. Desperate, the town lord hires Atlas Orivian, a Slayer whose soul is merged with one of the very creatures he hunts. But when he arrives, he is met with contempt, branded as unnatural and unworthy of trust. As Atlas hunts the Vex, he uncovers a terrible truth that makes him question his morals. Faced with a town that despises him and a demon he's sworn to destroy, Atlas must decide -- will he fight for those who see him as a monster, or will he let the town fall into darkness?Complete
Blood of the Blackthorn
In the cursed village of Duskmere, shrouded by eternal fog and shadowed by a towering gothic castle, a centuries-old war rages between humans and vampires. At the heart of this blood-soaked conflict stands Jake Grey-a reluctant hero haunted by loss, forged in fire, and driven by a need to protect what remains of humanity. Watching from the darkness is Damien Blackthorn, a sinister vampire lord with glowing red eyes and a hunger not just for blood-but for power, vengeance, and immortality. Alongside him, the seductive and savage Lilith Crimsonheart feeds on the souls of the fallen, her lips forever stained with the blood of her victims. As ancient forces awaken and the veil between life and death tears, Jake must face the horrors of the crypts below, the secrets of his past, and the rise of something even darker than Damien: a god-like entity known only as the Pale One. The final battle draws near, where fire meets shadow and hope hangs by a thread. But victory always demands sacrifice. And even when the dead fall, evil finds a way to rise again... A tale of betrayal, forbidden love, ancient curses, and blood-soaked revenge, Blood of the Blackthorn is a gothic horror fantasy where the line between hero and monster disappears in the fog.Complete

The Hollow Marks
In the secluded, small town of Nettle's Hollow, the truth may not save you, but the lies will kill you. When Nathaniel Hawthorne, a werewolf with no memories of his life before the Hollow, returns to his "hometown", another person is murdered, and the timing leads the townspeople to all but confirm his guilt. He himself wonders if he would be capable of such depravity, as he has struggled with the call of the beast since he could remember. Judith Katz, an old friend of Nathaniel, as well as the town's witch and Archivist, knows what the town wants her to forget. She has kept a fragile peace with the other townspeople, but when the dead begin to speak and the storm that's been building for a century finally breaks, she'll have to decide whether she's meant to preserve the life she's built in Nettle's Hollow, or burn it down. Told in alternating perspectives with emphasis on tension, The Hollow Marks explores generational memory, identity, and the personal cost of survival. It will appeal to readers who love emotionally restrained horror, as well as fans of gothic who love to see broken protagonists make uneasy choices.Complete
