Most of us long to "Be" but when the path gets too costly, or steep, we take solace in what we "Have." Remove the trappings of what we own and then what is the sum of us? They were the survivors, abandoned by the allies who swore to protect, in the ultimate gesture of greed and betrayal. Their world plunged into annihilation and chaos. With the passage of years in this blighted landscape order was established anew. Those who had been anonymous before the war found their will to rule, those who had experienced the comforts and ease of western life, thrust into darkness and despair. This brutal conflict had awoken those long sleeping, those who had ceased to care, those of immense power, the ones entrusted with the safe keeping of the often volatile mankind. Although their parallel world too was at risk, lethargy and arrogance ruled them. Against the backdrop of this savage landscape the saga of three such tribes of survivors unfold, and the unwitting chosen among them. One tribe sought to prosper via savagery, one by organized military might, and the other who ruled with no more than fairness and love. Three tribes thrown together, competing for the limited resources to survive, in a world teetering on the brink of total decimation. Driven by human avarice.

The army of Demons has been repelled and almost a year later demon activity is scarce. That is until a new terror descends on the Lightforce Academy, Dark Dragons. Dragons haven't been seen in Elementia in thousands of years so their return is troubling. But it seems like they are looking for something, or more accurately someone. When Katie Malcovitch mother to Seth is taken from the Academies during an attack it doesn't take Seth long to figure out his mother had vital intel. A rescue team is launched to not only rescue his mother but also secure the one thing that would give them control back over their skies... The Air gem. Distrust and fear encroach on our characters. Will they succeed in saving the Academies once again, or will the demons win?.

What are wings for if not for flying with dragons in the realm where islands float in the sky? The life of order and monotony is not enough for a winged demon like Ansgarde. When society rules suffocate her, she escapes to fantastic dreams of dragons and epic quests. If only someone qualified took on the challenge to break the Dragon's Curse, her dream would come true - she would share the sky with a dragon. After all, the prophecy says that a demon like her would free the ancient race. But no one takes the legend seriously. No one but her. *** This book has been featured on the following Wattpad reading lists at one time or another: - Open Novella Contest: 2020 Shortlist, - Fantasy: Epic Fantasy, High Fantasy, and Featured Fantasy Stories, - High Fantasy: Wonderland, - YA Fantasy: Magical Creatures, - Watt-Dragons: Legendary Creatures, - Magic: A Magical Journey, - Secret Treasures: Fantastical Realms, - Warrior Goddess: Fantastical Warriors, - Horns and Halos: Underworld - Demon stories. 2nd place winner in The Dream Awards 2021 hosted by @TeamOfDreams. *** No trigger warnings.

But when life becomes too hard to live without falling into her old ways, she comes up with a plan. She can earn her living doing what she knows best, fighting; she just can't let anyone find out, not if she wants to survive. Except lying isn't as easy as she thought it would be, not when she finds herself drawn to three incredibly attractive and incredibly secretive guys who seem to watch her every move like predators on the prowl. She can't afford to let them in, not when the secret she's been hiding for too many years starts to seep from her skin in front of them. How is she meant to live if they find out she's not exactly human?

My heart raced as I watched him tentatively lifting his hand to reach mine. Then I saw it. A flash of white in corner of my vision. Turning my focus away from the man, I focused on the white shape behind him. Craning my neck, I tried to inspect it further but my confusion only grew when I recognized it to be a patch of white feathers. Wait...feathers? He must have noticed my gaze because his lips quirked up into a proud smile and suddenly the patch of white grew into an entire wing. No, not just one, two wings...and they were attached to his back. -Rankings- #1 in Creature 3/03/2021 ❤️ #1 in Beast 1/27/2023 ❤️ #1 in Subject 8/27/2022 ❤️ #1 in Dystopia 3/25/2020 ❤️ #1 in Laboratory 4/27/2021 ❤️ #1 in Science-Fantasy 4/21/2023 ❤️ #2 Young Adult 4/18/2023 #2 Strong-Female-Character 12/20/2021 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED [NEW COVER 4/3/2021] [COMPLETED 4/9/2022] *WATTPAD EXCLUSIVE STORY*

"Beware that you become not the very monster you ought to slay." In a world where magic holds the essence to life, there is still no telling where fate determines your place will be. When the Cardinal Empire of Nyrhaea and its time-forsaken creatures declare war on the human world, an immortal dark entity in the guise of a human, a grieving swordsman, an electric-manipulating technocrat, an unhinged fire-breathing boy, and a magic-less girl whose very existence defies the Laws of Mahika, venture to stop the prophecied, apocalyptic world war. All the while dealing with the complications of entering adulthood. With the grotesque inside him growing hungrier by the day, threatening him of the looming hour to fulfill destiny's bidding to be the key to the end of the world--where death is an impossible remedy to attain--the entity resorts to a mysterious girl who could only be his last hope to achieve freedom from the shackles of fate. An antidote given not without an undefined price. But how long can he endure to bury the roots of the calling past? And what are they willing to risk to liberate a cruel world beyond saving that hangs in the state of trust and sanity? *~* Contains Mature Contents: gore, violence, and subtle depictions of abuse, substance use, and suicide.

"The wolf desires to kill us before the demons even have a chance," Lily muttered beside me. My eyes flickered from the Crusader standing before us to his dire wolf. The beast wove through the mass of recruits, salivating, his silver eyes roving over each one like we were to be his next meal. "The second trial is upon us," thundered Desmond Castiel, his fingertips crackling with impatient flames. "I won't repeat myself again. Refrain from making eye contact with the demons, and do not be foolish enough to converse with them." His narrowed eyes settled on me, a warning glinting in their depths. I shrank further into my cloak. "Our purpose here is to hunt. Should you attempt to flee, the horde will surely tear you apart, ribbon by ribbon. Fear will lead to your demise unless you wield your faith as the armor it is. Am I making myself clear?" Omen towered over the Crusader now, ears pricked, nose twitching. The wolf knew. We all did. The damned were close. A shared glance with Lily conveyed our unspoken vow-we were in this together, come hell or high water. And by the looks of it, hell was just around the corner. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Everly Greywood has spent years battling what she believed to be schizophrenia, haunted by visions of terrifying creatures no one else can see. Just when she feels on the brink of losing her sanity, she's whisked away to a mystical spirit world where the truth becomes clear: the demons are real and so is God.
