Devils hang on the shoulders of Meridian men and women. Voices echo in their heads, words of hunger, words of deceit. Words they dare not repeat. They choose to listen to the angel hanging on their other shoulder, the one convincing them that the devil is wrong, that it doesn't exist.
Aveeva Jones stopped listening to her angel a long time ago. It didn't agree with the whole "killing people for money" part of her job description. It also didn't come up with a better way to put food on the table. Doesn't matter if it's for revenge or if he just happened to look at you the wrong way. If the price is right, the guy dies.
Yet her angel never stops whispering, even as she lingers in the shadows.

Wings of the Ominous
✺ Dark Fantasy ✺ When you have an eternity of time, there is little room for surprises. But for Ahzrael, things are about to shake his everlasting life. In a universe filled with a multitude of planes, realms, and worlds, resides a group of powerful beings that examine it all. The Diuxals. They wait, century after century, for the evils that threaten worlds across galaxies, hungry for innocent life. Among Ahzrael's time in the stars, an unexpected opportunity falls in his lap. He finds himself in the presence of a weakened yet powerful rival. His people want her dead. She's an abomination. But he sees this as a once in an eternity chance, and keeps her alive. It's a chance for his people to finally rest, to quench the flames of war. A chance for him to redeem himself. Some opportunities, however, have unforeseen, unforgiving consequences. And this ancient enemy, turned ally, has many surprises. In Ahzrael's long life, the cords of the universe have never been this uncertain.Concluida

It wasn't until she was of marrying age that she learned why the people feared her. She was canny... like her forest mother. Canny and feared to be fae. The only person besides her father who didn't seem to fear her was the handsome stable boy. He knew what she was and didn't cross himself before letting his hands touch hers longer than needed for helping her to her mount. And on her 18th birthday, neither could deny the bond that dragged them together. But her father had her sold off to make an advantageous match with the neighboring king's sullen and cruel son. Even a kingdom over, the whispers of the canny princess the people feared as fae reached royal ears.

Now with the kingdom at war with the prince she would have married, Alera must save the people who feared her from an unspeakable fate brought to their door by the sullen prince wielding a dark unknown power. -------------------- Cover by Tina Glasneck ©2022 M.Dalto Published to Wattpad 06.01.2022 Completed 03/30/2023Concluida

His Guardian Demon
All demons who have been in Hell 5 years or less get assigned a person to hover over until said person finally dies. This isn't to protect them; It's rather a little gesture that ensures that the person will go to Hell if that wasn't clear already. The most immoral people are typically who these demons get assigned to. Alaska, since she's only been in Hell for 2 years, is not happy in the slightest to have to go into the human world to poke and prod at some guy who's definitely going to Hell anyway. She doesn't see a point and thinks she's going to be bored to tears. But, upon meeting the man she's been assigned, and discovering they aren't so different, Alaska begins to think that this is going to be more entertaining than she anticipated.... *I do not own the cover photo, and do not claim it as my own.* Updates will be slow, my apologies. Now with a sequel! Go read "His Bride To Be" next!Concluida
