Valmarie Hale is going crazy. She is seeing things that aren't there. That couldn't possibly be there. No Mundane should see what she does. She is human. Right? Wrong! And that's not the worse part. Her mother is gone! Her and her sister are thrown into a world that shouldn't exist. They find they have powers they can't explain. They just want there mom back.
Val and her sister, Celia, are on a quest to save there mom, but it seems that the magic community have different plans for them. The worrier children have returned with no training, no idea what going on, or any idea of who the are. The quest to save their mother has turned into so much more.
_________________________________________
"Celia" Val screams like she is in agony. Celia looks over quickly. She is covered in blood, some is hers, most of it is that of demons. She could tell the difference in the color. Other then her haggard appearance she didn't seem to be in immediate danger. She was handling them both quite fine. Celia was immensely confused, until she realized they were separated, and could still see the demons. Val was terrified for herself, but mostly for her sister. Who was now alone with nothing but a few training session to protect herself. She could fight her way back to Celia and risk her life in the process. A sigh that sounds strangled, more like a gasp, exscape her lips as she dismissed the thought. Getting killed would be no help to Celia. Celia wasn't handling herself well. Though she aced all her basic training lessons, that included fighting, she was struggling to fight the beast of with just her bare hands. Given there were only three sessions before she quit.

She is a monster, a nightmare, a killer, who dreams of an ancient battlefield and a different, brutal world where stars fall and dark blood stains the earth. Kye Merran is an Ember, one who wields fire magic. When a childhood friend shows up at his house with a strange girl who is bleeding black blood, he knows that he's getting into something he definitely shouldn't. Especially when the Dark King of Rurik, who may have much more to him than it seems, is looking to conquer another kingdom or two, preferably with a powerful, dark queen at his side. But Kye can't seem to stay away from the mysterious girl with the blood of Darkness. And Val can't stay away from Kye either, no matter how much she claims that she hates him. As Val, Kye, and their friends race to stop the Dark King and his approaching army, what they don't realize is that they are playing a part in an ancient, deadly game, a game between the light and the dark, one years in the making. But it is a game which neither of them can win, for their fates have already been determined by the desperate Gods, written in blood among the stars.

Sun's Shadow (Dusk Series - Book 3.5)
Obsession is the height of passion, but what does one do when they find themselves enthralled with their enemy. Talamayas Sol loses his mother when he stumbles upon a mage in the deserts of his territory, and he is plunged into a despair he's never known. Stricken with grief, he imprisons the murderer and wipes out every last mage of the Song-a human supremacist mage family that had murdered his kind for nothing more than the joy of their extinction. Through his pain, Talamayas finds himself leaning on the man in his dungeons, be it only to torture him for the relief it grants. It was anger at first, but as he learns more about the circumstances of his mother's death and the terrors that fill Wren Song's nightmares, he is inescapably tethered to the man in his dungeons. Why can't he just kill Wren Song and move on with his life? What keeps him close to the mage and anxious when he leaves his side? Is there more to it than obsession and a need to crush the enemy of his past? If there is, what does that mean for him and his people? Take a step back to the start and follow Talamayas Sol and Wren song through their struggle in the deserts of the east. Learn just where their animosity began and how working together changes and shapes the hearts and minds of men grown in a time when violence was the only way forward.

Over the course of her life, she was neglected by her mother for being different like the "demons of the west." She began to harden as the years passed her by and the abuse she endured intensified until one day, she snapped, killing someone.

Forgotten
//He had my hands pinned tightly above my head as I squirmed beneath him. The blade twisting between his fingers. He held it up to my throat. I was afraid but refused to show it. "Hurt me." I said between gritted teeth. He just gave me a sorrowful glance before driving the dagger into my flesh.// This is no story of love and happiness. This is a story of death and destruction. One of a man and woman who met one night and not only changed the lives of themselves, but the lives of a whole world of people. One was fire and one was water. They were perfectly balanced. Until one night when the sun fell just below the tip of the tallest castle, the balance faltered, and all hell broke loose. Fire on fire. This is no memorable story that was told on for generations after. No. This is a story of the forgotten. ------------------------------------------- The prince and princess are forced to marry out of their fathers hatred for one another. Yet, there's a falter to the plan and murder gets involved.
