I start to get real anxious and on edge, "Hey Kells, do u feel that?"
She stops in her tracks and I stop with her, "Feel what?"
I do a quick 360 just like I did that same morning "Like.... Like someone's watching us,"
She looks around with me before shaking her head and glancing over at me "No, I don't feel that way. Nor do I see anyone else around here with us."
She starts walking again down the path before she tries to joke "Maybe you just got use to Daniel's daggers on your back."
I look around one more time before falling in step next to her "Yeah, yeah maybe you're right."
As much as I wanted to believe her though I couldn't help but feel that way for the rest of the time we walked through those woods.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Izzy's life seemed just fine to her, cliché almost if you will. She's got great friends, makes good grades, a good family life, everything, but she finds herself having these strange feelings all the sudden; this gut wrenching certainty that she's being watched and possibly even followed. To make matters worst it seems to be linked to the woods near her home. She can't explain this feeling and fears she's going crazy. Until one walk changes everything.
She finds herself in a whole new world full of.... Fairytales?
There's fairies, werewolves, vampires, witches, warlocks, and most of all demon hunters.
Why is she in this world if she's not one of them? At least that's what they keep telling her but no secret stays in the dark for long. After all, who knows what awaits you in the shadows.

The Alpha's Little Rogue
"Goddess, you're so perfect." he breathed the words, staring up at her as she moved rhythmically up and down above him, her breasts bouncing as he gripped her hips, trying to hold back the wave that he felt building inside of him. She just looked and felt so fucking good. "Do female wolves mark their mates?" She leaned forward as she asked the question in a low voice, sliding her arms along his chest as she shifted her position, moving her legs close together so that he was even tighter inside of her as his hands came down to grip her ass, thrusting into her from below. "Yes." he was barely able to gasp out the word. "Not in my pack. But in many- most even- other packs." "Why not yours?" He felt her mouth slip forward, her tongue teasing the same place he had marked on her body half an hour earlier. "The men in our pack just haven't allowed it. It's a sign of claiming and-" her teeth grazed the spot lightly, not hard enough to break the skin, but he felt a mixture of pleasure and pain shoot through his body and he drew in a sharp breath, his head tilting back automatically as he offered her better access to the spot. "It shows that you belong to your mate. Doesn't it? Like I belong to you?" "Yes." He murmured, gripping her more tightly, so close to the edge he knew he'd lose control at any moment. He only hoped he could bring her to the peak of pleasure again first. He'd thought she was close. "Nova." He knew his voice sounded desperate. "Can I mark you, Alpha?" ---------------------------------- When Nova stumbles into pack lands and is captured by the Blazing Moon pack she knows that she has to escape. She makes a daring escape only to be tracked down by their Alpha. But their meeting isn't at all what either or them expected. Can he convince her to stay? Or will a petite female rogue be the one to bring down one of the fiercest Alpha's on the continent? ⚠️THIS STORY HAS EXPLICIT SCENES AND MATURE CONTENT.

The Witch's Mates
I am just about to turn around and head down the alley toward the street when I see two shadows step away from the wall a little farther down from where I am standing. I can't see any features, but I can guess from their statures that they are both men. I don't know what species they are though, but given that they just witnessed me kill a vampire I decide it's time to get the hell out of here. At least they aren't blocking my path to the street. Just as that thought crosses my mind, I hear the back door to the club open and close. I don't want to take my eyes off the men in front of me, but I have to see who just walked out. To assess the new danger. Before turning to look though, I pull out my remaining weapon also hidden in my boot. A silver dagger. It's only really good for killing werewolves, but it can do some damage to other supernaturals too. I give the figures in front of me one last look, they haven't moved at all, and then glance behind me. My breath stops for a moment, and it feels like my heart stops along with it. *** Willow is a witch who hunts down and kills other supernaturals. After the Great Massacre of the Wiccan Community, their population had been decimated. So while they try to rebuild their population and plan their revenge, they take out as many supernaturals as they can. But everything changes for Willow when she meets Keaton, Everett, Aizen, and Devlin. *** *This is a fantasy reverse-harem romance novel.

Moon Bound/Blood Bound Duology
Moonbound is now in the professional editing stage and scheduled for publication November 2nd, 2026. If she runs from fate, it will chase her. Doctor Willa Grey has been running for most of her life, from the truth of her past, from her feelings, from the feral creature that scrapes under her skin. So, when she finds herself running naked through a moonlit forest, with the wolf who just ignited her matebond nipping at her heels, it's. . . well . . . on brand. But some believe shiftless wolves are unacceptable liabilities, and this time, she might just be running for her life. When she wakes in the infirmary the following morning disoriented, concussed, very much alive, and with no mate in sight, she has lots of questions. Her Fate. Codrin Lupescu, the enigmatic, dominant Prince of Wolves, thought he'd accepted his cursed blood centuries ago, but when it makes him the most dangerous threat to the fated mate he has waited almost a millennium for, he has never hated it more. There's a beast that lurks beneath Codrin's cool facade, and it craves their mate, body, soul, and blood. Unable to claim her without risking her life, he is intent on keeping his distance, if only to keep her safe. The problem is, the willful and determined healer who possesses the other half of his soul is on the hunt for answers only he can give. They can't fight it. When the powerful pull of their bond proves impossible to resist, the complicated pair finds themselves emotionally entangled and locked in a battle of wills that neither wants to lose, because the price the fates demand for them to complete their mating might just be everything.

Reborn: The Allies of Old (Book One)
Nineteen year old Anna Preston appears to lead a life typical for a young woman in modern-day America. But she has a secret. For the past three years she's been seeing shadowy figures mingling with the populace. Made of smoke and vapor with a vaguely human form, they are not overtly threatening, but in the recesses of her mind there are whispers of nightmares long buried and forgotten. Jared is of a race created solely for the purpose of protecting humankind from demons, and for the first two centuries of life he was fully devoted to the service. Until the very ones he protected repaid him by destroying everything he ever loved. For decades Jared's hatred of humans was a living thing, but time has a way of dulling strong emotion and centuries later he is mostly indifferent. But when he learns a vial of his blood is being used in depraved activities, a long forgotten past comes hurdling back. ** Humans, Vampires, Faerians, and Shifters once banded together to fight their common enemy, but it has been many centuries since the demons presented a real threat to the world- and in these modern times most are oblivious to the danger lurking just beyond their perception and mankind has reduced both allies and enemies to fairy tales and boogie men. Signs are beginning to appear that allude to this threat rising in power once more, but with the alliances largely broken and those still continuing the fight few and far between, the human race is on the precipice of a grave danger that could threaten their very existence. And so it is of dire need for the allies to gather together once more. Ancient prophesies will soon begin to surface, one in particular that speaks of a unifying force initiated by the unlikeliest of beings...Complete
