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."

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 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 LONGER WRITING THIS VERSION OF THE STORY - PLEASE GO TO MY PROFILE AND SEE MY BOOK 'The Monster's Stratagem' FOR THE 2.0 VERSION ! * * * Highest Ranking: #8 in Adventure 19/11/17 Added to Wattpad's official adventure page reading list 'Fantastical Adventures' 05/12/17 * * * In the distant future of 3274, monsters rule the Earth. 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
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
