The storyteller sits back in his intricately engraved chair as a woman with flowing chesnut hair takes the seat beside him. Many gather around to hear the eloquent words and mystifying tales that he weaves together. A soft smile plays on his lips as his gentle eyes look over the crowd. "Come and listen," he begins and the people are silenced. "I will tell you a story that is close to my heart. It follows the life of a young huntress by the name of Nova who never had the chance for a childhood nor peace for more than a few years. Instead of letting her harsh upbringing be her downfall, she used it to sculpt her into a fierce warrior," he pauses as he takes in several of the faces that light up with recognition after such a short description. "You may already know her journey as her legend is ever growing with the rumors around Hysmeai. So listen closely as I tell the tale of the huntress."

Blind Instincts
*COMPLETED* My head bowed in a heavy mannor, not in respect, but in trepidation. I discern his unwavering gaze over my ill silhouette. "Look at me." I opened my eyes, though it made no difference. Black is still black, all I am left with are my four senses. He will kill me if I don't look. He will kill me if I do. He will look into my sightless eyes and see my futile existence isn't worth living. He will kill me, and he will be doing the pack a justice by it. He growls a low, throaty snarl to warn me about disobeying an alpha. There will be consequences, we both know that. His lingering growls let me know he is not going to allow me to contravene his word. I steadily inch my head upwards, visibly shaking everywhere else. Maybe he won't notice my depthless eyes from across the gazebo. My life depends on it.

Hunter
Book 1 of the Hunter Series A family with hunter blood running through their bodies. This family kills any mythical creature they come across, and they are trained to kill and show no emotions towards the enemies. At least, that's how hunters used to be. Hunter's have always had the trouble of killing ever since they got mates that turned out to be the enemy. Some hunter's have had demons, werewolves, vampires, and other mythical creatures as mates. So what happens when every hunter in the world has found a solution to having a 'mate'? Let's just say mythical creatures better beware to what goes bump in the night because there's a new creature coming out into the dark, and they're not afraid of anything. What could possibly happen with there being a new cure to getting rid of mates? *** "Get off me mutt," I growled while still thrashing. I wasn't going to give up that easily, especially to a werewolf. He had me still however when he brought his face closer to my neck. There was no way I was the mate of a mutt, it had to be impossible because I was suppose to be with another hunter to continue the bloodline. "Why do you smell like her?" the alpha growled out at me. I threw him a confused look as if I knew what the hell he was talking about. I had no idea who he meant by 'who' and I didn't want to stay to find out either.Complete
The Hunters Saga #3: The Hawthorn Pearl
"THE AFTERLIFE CAN BE A REAL BITCH, RIGHT?" "Henri-" I began, but Henri's hand snatched up mine and squeezed tightly enough to break bones. I bit my tongue to hold back a cry. It was a warning. "Maria didn't say anything about a couple of vampires wanting to meet with her," the green-haired warlock spoke after the area had stilled with electrified silence. I looked Henri's way, and that's really when our situation caught up with me. Wait... "Maria..." I murmured in remembrance, then sent Henri a glare. "Why are we here to see Maria Day? If you don't remember, let me remind you that I killed her friend. Hell, her master. She'll kill me when she sees me." Henri had the nerve to laugh softly. "You're already dead, Antoinette." "Thanks to you. There are other ways witches can hurt vampires, aren't there?" My eyes traveled shortly to the warlocks, Daniel and Zachary, and I shook my head. "She'll burn me alive! I'm not going in there." "You're overacting," Henri said with a dramatic eye roll with a worth of a slap across his face. Lucky for him, I kept my hands at my sides. This night was about to get dangerous... This is Book 3 of The Hunters Saga! 1st draft, so there WILL be mistakes! Cover thanks to @AlexandraSinclair1! *Rated PG-13 for thematic peril and angst, rude humor, mild language, occasional innuendo and sensuality, and graphic imagery in some places.

Cerise was trained to survive. Not to shift. She was an elite assassin on Earth-silent, precise, and bound by protocol. Magic didn't exist. Fate was a myth. And wolves? Just animals. But when a mission fractures the sky and tears her from her world, Cerise wakes in a realm that defies everything she knows. The ground pulses. The air hums. Strangers capture her, test her blood. She meets Lexi May, a mousy girl, who's just as lost as she is when they learn they hold shifting or magic abilities. Cerise doesn't have a wolf. Or so she thinks. Now, whispers in a language she doesn't understand crawl beneath her skin. Her instincts shift. Her body betrays her secrets. She didn't come here to be chosen. She came to survive. And if she's something more than human now-they'll regret finding her first.
