They read James mind and they could sense the darkness in him then they used it against him, they put the faith of his friends in his hands,
It was either he save his friends from dying or he chose to save the world from been destroyed by the shadows?
Chapter 1
When it all happened, the darkness inside was allowed to take over. The darkness gave power, hope, dream, and the light had faded. The darkness ruled the entire world, some humans still believed that one day the light was going to rise again and everyone will be out of the spell of the darkness. Some people thought the darkness was a curse, while some thought it was time for the dark to shine.
As we walked along the road in broad daylight, I had a weird feeling about the guys who were approaching us, I could sense they were born lairs. I stood aside, observing as James was discussing with them, it looked like he was losing the gentleman's interest in helping us, and they were not telling James the whole story. I was becoming uncomfortable with the way the guys were talking to James.
They were replying to him like he was only trying to save his life. I took a few steps forward and backwards. I was nervous because I knew two things;
First, we really needed these guy's help and two, if they didn't start talking politely I can rip off their head and nobody would question my authority. Not in this present earth because everyone is busy trying to save their lives from the outbreak of the night creatures.
She walked a few steps forward as James noticed her eyes were very red and if she was not calm, heads would roll.
The closer I got, the more I could no longer hide my range, I could feel the atmosphere changing then suddenly I felt a cold hand like ice.
Her eyes were back to normal as she felt relaxed, then she said,
“you all are very self-centered, you think the shadows will leave your city alone when It is next to Oz era city, nothing can save anyone here except we all work together to end the war”.
The whole team just listened in silence as she was given the room to speak.
The only thing she could think of was, were they even listening as they all kept quiet, or were they waiting for her to finish her nonsense and shut her up.
I was not sure where the courage came from, but I knew I had it since the time my parents were murdered right in front of me, but the silence made me feel awkward. I took a glance at my friends and I noticed they were also listening to what I was saying.
Just then Steve, the man James had been trying to get on our side, agreed to partner with us just to defeat the shadows.
“We have friends who can supply us with gold and diamonds, but we need people who can craft them into dangerous and great weapons that can be used to slay the shadows once they are attacked”.
James said as he was explaining to Steve and his crew members. Steve was the minister of power, he was responsible for all the weapons created and sold out to other countries.
The city of Asteria was good at making weapons. Being the minister of power made him wealthy and respected around the entire cities in the country. The first in command was the king of Asteria and the second was the Queen, followed by the minister of power; he is entitled to make or give orders when the royal families are not on-site.
This was a massive opportunity that was given to him because the royal family of Asteria were very great for the numbers of wars they have won and the diamonds they found under their city.
Mr. Steve was our source of weapons, but we knew that we couldn't rely on them alone, so James and I journeyed deep into the southwest to the city of Peoria, also known as the home of fish. Here we meet the Queen of the city, she was very young, but she had wise counsel. We were summoned into the court, we stood in the middle of the room and bowed before her majesty,
“Your royal majesty, we are here to tell you about the upcoming war of the shadows, we need you to stock food and supply us when we call out to you.”
As her majesty was about to give her say about what we were offering, we sited a shadow. Immediately, James and Kate drew their swords and walked gently and slowly out of the courtroom. A man was putting on a black coat with a black hat, he was walking faster than everyone else, which made him a suspect. James chased him, but he lost him to the crowd. Now we had proof that the shadows existed, and we had a witness, she agreed to be our witness to the other nations who are yet to believe that the shadows existed. But our proof was not solid because the shadow had escaped, but James was able to shoot it by its leg. Trying to run on one foot made it saint the whole floor with drops of blood. It was easy tracking until it suddenly disappeared without a trace. We told the young queen and her counsel to please write to every nation they know, we need more nations if we really want to win this war against the shadows. Now we were certain that the shadows were around the corner, and they were stalking us. They decided to separate, so they could cover more ground since they were three now, Kate was to stay in the city of fish while James will journey to meet Peter at the gate of hell.

I Found the Babies
"When..." He growled in my ear, "When we will be getting married, I will be your only king, do you get my point? Only one queen, no misters or mistresses. Just me, just you, and yeah, our babies."
I shivered.
Alyssa Reynolds found herself in a situation, while returning home from work, and she had three choices:
Simply walk away and forget that you ever heard the sound of wailing infants.
Call the police and inform them about the innocent wails.
Follow the sounds of the wails and take the matter in your hands, deciding what to do later.
Being a kindhearted soul and a sucker for babies, she found herself choosing the third option, finding the two little lives.
Two little lives that changed her whole life, her love life included. Her life now revolved around the babies as diapers, vomit and shit seemed to surround her.
Just when she thought that now it's just her and the babies, her whole world flipped over and she found herself living under the same roof as the egotistical, obnoxious and hot-as-hell Terence Powers, the business tycoon who was not going to let the woman fend off for herself and the babies alone.
How Not To Fall For A Dragon
Which is why it was more than a little confusing when a letter arrived with my name already printed on a schedule, a dorm waiting, and classes picked out as if someone knew me better than I knew myself. Everyone knows the Academy, it’s where witches sharpen their spells, shifters master their forms, and every kind of magical creature learns to control their gifts.
Everyone except me.
I don’t even know what I am. No shifting, no magic tricks, nothing. Just a girl surrounded by people who can fly, conjure fire, or heal with a touch. So I sit through classes pretending I belong, and I listen hard for any clue that might tell me what’s hidden in my blood.
The only person more curious than me is Blake Nyvas, tall, golden-eyed, and very much a Dragon. People whisper that he’s dangerous, warn me to keep my distance. But Blake seems determined to solve the mystery of me, and somehow I trust him more than anyone else.
Maybe it’s reckless. Maybe it’s dangerous.
But when everyone else looks at me like I don’t belong, Blake looks at me like I’m a riddle worth solving.

“I thought you said you were done chasing me?” Gen mocked.
“I am done chasing you.”
Before she could formulate a witty remark, Matteo threw her down. She landed hard on her back atop his dining room table. She tried to sit up when she noticed what he was doing. His hands were working on his belt. It came free of his pants with a violent yank. She collapsed back on her elbows, her mouth gaping open at the display. His face was a mask of sheer determination, his eyes were a dark gold swimming with heat and desire. His hands wrapped around her thighs and pulled her to the edge of the table. He glided his fingers up her thighs and hooked several around the inside of her panties. His knuckles brushed her dripping sex.
“You’re soaking wet, Genevieve. Tell me, was it me that made you this way or him?” his voice told her to be careful with her answer. His knuckles slid down through her folds and she threw her head back as she moaned. “Weakness?”
“You…” she breathed.
