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."

"I wish you were dead", she hissed at him as she broke the kiss. "Do it, kill me", he hissed back. She went for his throat, the lessons definitely helped but she was no match for him. "One day you'll be able to best me. Lucky for me that day isn't today." Ivy had wanted to claw his eyes out, "you're a monster." "So is everyone." "Not everyone kills seventeen guards." "You're right, only the strong kill in our world. Too bad we don't live in a fairytale." "Don't dare make me feel insane, it's insane, the world we live in!

You love how loving me makes you feel." "And how does loving you make me feel?" "Like your heart isn't black." "Fair enough." They kissed urgently, Ivy removed her pants while he ripped her shirt from her body....Complete
The Reign of the Huntress
More had gathered over the course of his story and listen intently. The storyteller sits back with a smile as his audience leans forward anticipating what would come next for the heroine in the legend. "And with those last words, she was killed." Gasps and whispers overtake the crowd as a toothy smile begins to break on the lips of the storyteller. The brown haired beauty sitting by his side shakes her head at his antics and then turns to address the crowd. "He jests, her hardships are not over and the tale has merely reached it's middle. Now continue with the story," she waves her hand at him with a sly smile. "This is true. 'The poor huntress has already endured so much, how will she survive more to come?' You may ask. It wasn't easy but the weak will always fall prey to the predators. In this case our huntress not only survives but she flourishes in the trials to come."Complete
The Queen's Slave (Book 1)
"So." She mused, sliding one black nail across her lip in a sensual caress as she stared at me with eyes the color of molten gold. "You are the one they call Huntress." Disregarding the pain in my side from the most recent beating, I straightened my shoulders and stood tall, my chin jutting out in defiance. "Yes." "Mm." Those intriguing eyes watched me from her languid position on the throne. "But, you are not just a huntress, are you?" I allowed the predatory instincts I usually worked so hard to keep hidden, to surface, feeling the burning of my eyes and shifting of bones under my skin. A slow grin slid across my face as my beast stared back at her through my human skin. The Queen didn't react to my sudden change of character, instead choosing to lean forward in interest. "How fascinating." • Once, the world was ruled by humans and technology. They were governed by a president that made choices for all. Vampires, werewolves alike hid their existence from the humans for centuries, blending in as a whole. Now, they hid no more. States are now territories governed by kings and queens, humans are regarded and used for no more than their blood and body before they are discarded and forgotten. Werewolves and vampires were at war, and it was said that the wolves had all been but snuffed out, save for one. When Adira is captured while hunting outside her homeland, she is unexpectedly sold to the Queen in the North. Wolf blood is sacred, it is said to hold inexplainable powers, and as the only wolf-borne known to humans and vampires alike, Adira fears for her life. Thrown into a world governed by everything she's been trained to hate, Adira fights for her rightful place in the world, a seat at the Queen's side. But proving her worth won't be easy, the price for failure is her life.Complete

No one knows why or how they came onto the blue planet but that doesn't really matter anymore. One by one the humans started to disappear and were replaced by monsters until all that was left of them were their cities and knowledge. Legend has it that human survivors still exist and are living in the depths of a forest, right on the doorstep of the capital monster kingdom, Zyire. Protected and concealed by a magical border that burns monsters if they attempt to enter, the humans wait patiently for the right opportunity to strike and take back what once was theirs. 18 year-old human survivor Dawn lives within the borders of the forest, or as the humans call it, the Base. In the Base, the humans are separated into three groups; the Service, the Watchers and the Venturers. It is the Service's job to cook, what little food they have, and to heal the injured and sick. It is the Watcher's job to hide in the trees and scan the clearing, that lies before the forest's border, for monsters on the Venture days. It is the Venturers job to leave the forest borders on Venture days, and run into desolate cities to steal food, bedding and supplies that they need to survive. There is only one rule; never get caught. Venturer Dawn finds herself in a dangerous situation when she breaks the one rule. Dawn is caught by a monster, and not just any monster, but a monster who works as a Protector for their kind. Dawn soon learns that there are more to monsters than meets the eye. © 2016 by Heather DarteComplete
Savage Bonds: Cerise's Awakening
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.

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!
