"It's kind of hard to live a normal life when your shadow is trying to kill you."
Fifteen year-old Nevaeh has never lived a normal life. She has the ability to whisper to shadows. And they listen. These shadows have minds of their own. Some are even reckless enough to kill their humans. But Nevaeh can't stop this madness on her own. Soon she meets a boy named Ashten Lucason who seems to be hiding something. With shadows all around the world holding mischievous motives, it is up to Nevaeh and Ashten to stop them. For good.

But everything changes when a cursed mark - the Bloodmark - burns itself into her skin during a mission gone wrong.

Or will the war that she fights against her feelings do it for her? Allies become enemies, love and betrayal blur into one, and the mark's power begins to consume her. To survive, Syerin must decide: Will she embrace the curse that could save Velthar or destroy it?Complete

She finally manages to escape, falling into a world of magic and adventure that she never knew existed. Will she embrace her destiny and fight for her new life, or will everything be taken away from her once more? "After what seems like hours, the ships dock on our shores, and I spur Ormr into a dive. As men rush the shores, we coast above the ships, letting them see us for the first time. Many men freeze in their steps, while others attempt to ignore us, and continue charging. Once we're low enough, I whisper to Ormr, "Burn it all, girl," and flames pour from her mouth, devouring the ships below us. Let's see them leave now." ------------------------------ This is my first story, and I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed creating these characters. #Strongwomenawards2020Complete

Yes, everything in life has a cost and for Erin, someone had to pay for keeps. •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• This story "Hers Only" is a work of fiction and all characters and events are entirely from the writer's mind.
