The discovery of a prehistoric body sets in motion a cataclysmic chain of events long foretold by ancient prophecy . . . .

Still grieving his mother's death, Seattle bachelor Peter Barshman receives a cryptic message from his estranged father. As he ponders its meaning, he is approached by Nechama Davila, a young Israeli archaeologist who believes Peter and his father harbor information about a stolen artifact of immense importance. But she's not the only one zeroing in on Peter. When assassins strike, the two of them are thrust into a deadly game of cat and mouse where the only hope for survival is finding the artifact before the killers find them.  

Tinkering away in his basement laboratory, former CDC virologist R. K. Brisling receives an urgent phone call. The vice president of the United States is dead, and Congress wants to know why. Dragged out of semi-retirement to investigate, Brisling returns to the CDC in Atlanta, where he confronts his tragic past and a looming viral outbreak beyond his wildest fears. When Brisling traces the outbreak to its unlikely source, he uncovers an astonishing link between the virus, the artifact and the ancient prophecy--a link that could shape the future of human civilization.

"What are you doing babe," Jim's disembodied voice asked her. "I want to talk to you." "You are," his voice said, almost laughing at her. "Yes, but I want to hear you with my ears, not just in my head. I want to see your face again." "Okay. Well, you still have the little scrying mirror coin-thingy, right?" "It's not enough. I want to hold your hand in mine. I want to kiss your lips...I need to feel you again." "I know. You will one day. Soon." Hannah Stolzfus AKA Gabrielle Winston walked between two realms and lost herJim because of it...murdered by the Demon King by way of her unconditional love for her husband. Six months had passed after Jim's death when Chris, a friend from her ghost-hunting days, first approached her with his new "memorial bot," a brand new program that could communicate utilizing various algorithms; that could text and talk via phone and computer. But there were unexplained glitches; ghosts in the machine, he called them. He wanted her professional opinion as a psychic...Were they really ghosts? Knowing that Chris's dream was robotics, she wondered if he could take it a step further into a realm known only to science fiction? What if he could successfully create an android? What if he could create it so that it looked like Jim? What if he could make it sound like him...move like him...behave like him...Be like him? In every way possible...The perfect lure to attract the greedy Demon King. An original story about a love lost and a love reinvented...Like an amazing dream we sometimes wish to continue once we awaken, perhaps best left up to chance? Or not at all... Hannah is a young woman born of Amish ancestry with a secret. A secret so volatile that her entire family would be ousted or worse and to top it off, the souls of all of humanity hang in the balance. Free will's a bitch.

The alliance between the Red Stoichi Tribe and the Westerners has outlived the memories of any living Dakyre- it is as old as the realm itself. This is the story of how said alliance affects the lives of two Dakyres destined to be together. Faldrey, a water Stoichi Dakyre, loses his entire family in one day- on the day of the reoccurring Westian raids. Despite trying so hard to at least save himself, he's still gets captured and hoisted away to the Red Stoichi Tribe where he becomes a personal maid servant to the Young Mistress; the Young Tal Dane's twin sister. Eren, son of the Tal Dane, heir to the Throne of Fire, and Young Tal Dane of the Red Stoichi Tribe, finds himself powerless against what has now become the norm in the realm. Unable to get his father to reconsider their alliance with the Westies, he pays the ultimate price for speaking against them in the presence of the council of Lords. Eren and Faldrey, the eighth reincarnations of Alistair and Theobald; two cursed Ao lovers, are about to experience their first raid which wouldn't just bring them together, it would change their lives forever. A vengeful Dakyrian army, one never seen in the realm, is coming for the Tal Dane, and two lovers stand at the risk of losing everything they've built together. What does fate have in store for these two Dakyres a realm and a heartbeat apart? •Make sure to read the well detailed preamble in the book.• _________________________________________________________ NOTE: Dakyres are "people of old magic" I came up with whilst eating a bad combo of pringles and ketchup at 3am. I implore you to give this story a chance. I promise you won't be disappointed. Make sure to check the comprehensive glossary at the end for whatever confuses you.

Do your genes, your parents, teachers, or your master determine who you will be in life? Can they set your value in the universe? 650 years ago the known species of the universe came together and signed the Alliance, a document that would help each race find its place in the universe. It granted freedom to some and the scant protection of slavery to others. Into this society a handful of children are born who will change it forever, if they can survive to adulthood. Here is the origin story of two of those children. Hathu is born to a man determined to make the universe bow to him and his species. Since he learned to talk, Hathu has been a disappointment to his father. He doesn't want to become a warrior, and he refuses to assert his dominance. When he accidentally overhears his father plotting against the Ir'Klahn empire, can Hathu stop him? Mik is born with no rights, destined to become a lifelong slave. His mother tries to protect him from this fate by running away and finding a home for them on a trading ship that travels from world to world. They are safe for now, but how long can they hide from the best trackers in the universe? This is the first book in the My Kingdom Come series. Updates every Tuesday. :) My 2021 Nanowrimo so please excuse the unedited condition of the story. Be warned: there is violence, rape, murder, abuse, self harm and suicidal thoughts in this story. I do not post trigger warnings.

No one ever knows the whole story... Nestled deep in the forests of the Pacific Northwest, something is emerging. Kept in absolute secrecy, it seeps into a fading town, quietly shared from person to person. For Alden Bensen, a directionless high school graduate, this discovery could mean an escape from his empty existence. To Rachel DuValle, perpetually underestimated and dismissed by the world, magic represents a chance to become something much greater than herself. In the face of an unsuspecting world, their decisions shape the growth of a budding society discovering untold power.

Monday, August 1 Dear Isaac, if you're reading this, that means you've turned eighteen. Congratulations, I'm so proud of you. I hope you had a great day! But unfortunately, that also means I'm not there to celebrate with you, I'm so sorry about that. I never thought I'd have to write this journal, but here I am. You're probably very confused, and I don't blame you, but your father wouldn't be able to properly explain to you everything about yourself, And if I don't make it, which I fear I don't, and I probably didn't or you wouldn't be reading this, there's got to be some way for you to find out, So, let's begin ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- His friend forces him on a hunting trip, where instead of a monster he finds quite the opposite... or so he thinks. Soon things start to get confusing. What happens when a dark past gets revealed? And old acquaintances show up? What exactly happened to his mother? Strange people, strange events, and most prominently, strange feelings... Can he resist them and stay safe? Or will he fall for them and get pulled into all kinds of danger..? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [[Word Count: 115.000]]] [All original (besides some inspired scenes) please don't copy. Thank you :)] ⚠️!!WARNING: INCLUDES ADULT THEMES AND/OR SEXUAL CONTENT. !! ⚠️ THESE CHAPTERS HAVE A/C (Adult Content) AFTER THE TITLE AND A WARNING AT THE START
