{Note that, true to its title, this story will have some rather brutal scenes and violence.}
Beware the assassin. She may fool you, she may tame you, she may even like you. But in the end, she will still kill you.
++++
Locked deep in the dungeons of the kingdom of Helios...
... There is a dark, dangerous creature.
They call her the Shadow Assassin. The most feared creature in all of the four kingdoms.
But she hides a secret that could destroy them all. She hides their fates and their deaths. She hides the downfall of their world.
A bored prince brings her out of prison, thinking her to be his entertainment, his amusement, against the wisdom of his High Advisor. But with the angry son of the captain of the guards thrown into the battle, everything becomes far more dangerous.
This is not a child's tale. This is not a story. This is a tale as old as time about the treacheries and dangers of trusting somebody who has a heart colder than ice itself.

Dragon Matchmaker
Dragons are the apex predator. Seems pretty straight forward, but because of their threat, they have to be killed.

Kinsey absolutely hated his guts for ages, but during their trip to capture the dragon, Kinsey discovers a new side to him. Then there's Audrey, the fittest most charming, and most handsome of the dragon killers. Not only is he irresistible, he already likes her. Besides these two men, she gets kidnapped by the dragon she was supposed to kill. Suddenly, she's thrown into a whirlwind of confusion as she befriends her worst enemy and falls into a terribly conflicted love triangle, but through all of it, she believes the dragon is steering her right.Complete

The Hero's Guide to Heroing
A story about superheroes in a modern world. Once, humans and power wielders were at war. The war brought both side to the brink of destruction, forcing peace or extinction. A tentative peace prevailed for a time. Enough to build trust between the two sides for many years. But as the two sides grew together some of the old hatreds began to stir again. Those who held these old hatreds became known as villains, while those who fought them became known as heroes. "Are you sure this will work?" one of the figures around the table ask. All are dressed in black and hide their faces. No one wants to be known to anyone else in 'this' type of alliance. "I'm certain of it. We need to simply kill the few true heroes left, and then expose the rest for the self righteous corrupt creatures they are. I've already started gathering the pieces I need." "What's the end goal here?" a third figure asks. "To purge the world of corruption and all those who turn a blind eye to it." There is a long silence before a fourth voice speaks out. "Your talking about mass slaughter. I won't be a part of this." the figure stands and begins to leave the table. "It seems there is corruption in our very own ranks.... I suppose the best place to start is within the inner vessel, is it not?" "No! What are you Doing? Stop!"
