Currently, the world holds a dark truth. Mages secretly run the world while humans think that magic is just a fairytale.
Darnell Samuels is ready for summer vacation when his mysterious aunt, who can make dark rain clouds appear at will, invites him to an island in the Philippines for two weeks. Little does he know that normal school life will be a thing of the past and storybook creatures will be a new dangerous reality.
In an arena set up by mages with innocent lives at stake, Darnell is named the "Human Piece" and the rules are that only three pieces may survive in a competition featuring different magical beings. Darnell's only real hope to stay alive is by finding and making an alliance with the Fairy Piece, an even weaker creature than the human. Why would his own aunt throw him in such a predicament where survival is slim? As the darkness of magic begins to be uncovered, 15 year old Darnell will never be the same.
This is Chess of Mages and the battle between the 20 pieces begins!

Quincy
Quincy is a 'closeted mage' in a family who would be glad to see he gone if they found out. Just because it's been over 200 years since Paranormal came out, and the Great Mage Wars ravaged the world, didn't mean that there weren't still bigoted people out there. Unfortunately, Quincy's family finds out that she has interest in the paranormal world, and on the very day she is being disowned, she finds herself claimed by none other than a long lost grandfather. A grandfather who just so happens to also be a king of a magical kingdom. Quincy leaves home to discover the family she never knew, and learns more about herself, and the world she had been a part of without even realizing it. Her mundane life is now filled with werewolf shenanigans, playful grandparents, vampire attacks, and magic galore. Follow Quincy as she learns to love herself, and let others love her too. Time to add this one up on Royal Road as well :)Complete

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.

The Secret Vampire
**Completed but NOT edited. It's highly suggested not to read this book. I have yet to start the rewriting and editing process. This book has too many mistakes to even count at this time. I have much better books than this one which is why I must say looking back at this book is just embarrassing. I mean it's one of those 'this author seriously didn't know the difference between there, their, and they're back then?' Ew, I know. It's hard to read and the book is rushed. So if you do decide to continue on then read at your own risk and don't leave Rude comments because I did warn you that the book sucks, I don't need anyone to tell me what I already know.** ------- Lets start off with the basics. My name is Charlotte and I'm a Royal Pure Blood Vampire that's a Princess and next in line to be Queen. Pure Blood Vampires are stronger, faster, and more powerful, everything about them is better than other regular vampires. But when you mix blood of a pure blood vampire with Royal vampire blood then you are one of the most powerful Vampires in the world and that's exactly what Charlotte is. Her mother is a pure blood vampire and her father is royalty. There are only a few who are this lucky and are very wanted. Wanted dead. Charlotte doesn't tell anyone that she is a Vampire and refused to even show any signs she is one by using a little magic. She acts like a normal teenager at school with human friends and even a human boyfriend. Everything was going great until a group of Royal vampires join her school. Of course, humans don't know the existence of vampires so they have no worries. But Charlotte on the other hand has to worry about exposure of her secret. Especially because this Royal vampire is a future king. Join Charlotte on her little adventure with humanity and royal vampires. ----------- •Highest rating: #12 in Vampire (11/29/15)Complete
