But she'll need more than that if she's to unravel the mystery of the Ghosts of Tsavo without being eaten in the process. She must endure all this while surviving the machinations of her best friend's dashing godfather and the efforts of her safari guide to feed her to any lion willing to drag her away. What is a ghost-chasing widow to do?

The ghost of his past
Hitoshi Shinso was a regular, sleepy depressed orphan. He had no parents but he wasn't sad about it. He had finally got into the hero course, earlier than expected, all thanks to his mentor. Now he's got to get used to the 'normal 1a', being them forcing him to hangout, watching movies, playing games like Uno or Monopoly or even a Ouija board!... ahh yes the Ouija board... That's how Shinso's high school life took a turn for the worse, or better even. Finding out you can see your mentor's dead best friend is trying to reach for the living again, or even to be seen by the rest of the living, and knowing that there is a way can be surprising for most. Shinso is a responsible man, enough to know he should tell someone, but this could be the special 'thank you' he owes. But would he slowly distance himself from the people who truly care? Would his mentor realise the the affection he has for the boy? And would this 'thank you' be too much? ⚠️ Erasermic family Ghosts SwearingComplete!["HIS AMOR" [COMPLETED]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/365475722-256-k70278.jpg)

Heart of Stone
To make ends meet now that her husband has died in combat, Patrice accepts the only job going in the small town-backbreaking work picking fruit for the local farmer. When the farmer asks Patrice to move the cows into the lower field, she thinks nothing of it until one cow decides to go on an adventure through the wrong gate. After moving the cow, Patrice notices a glowing gem in the long grass. Patrice decides that it has to be returned to its owner and assumes that the shadowy figure in the distance is that person. Transfixed by the stone and its magical powers, Patrice chases after the mysterious figure, forgetting about the world behind her. The true owner is Jarek, a merciless elf king who has little time for the games that the crystal is playing. Jarek's plans for returning to his world after the battle to save the humans in their global war are thrown into disarray when he realises that the stone will not return to him. Jarek has no choice but to do everything within his power to get it back. Without the crystal, he will die. One small stone will cause chaos for Jarek and Patrice when it binds itself to her and refuses its rightful owner. Determined to get his crystal back, Jarek takes Patrice to his world. He knows that the clerics will have an answer. Neither Jarek nor Patrice will be pleased with what they offer. With time running out, they must do what is necessary to save a king with no heir. © This story is copyrighted.
