to me. “I’m really happy you made it back here, Camille. I’ve been wanting to
say that to you. I know we didn’t know each other too well before this all blew
up, but the last forty-eight hours would have been a lot harder if you hadn’t
been around.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Book Antiqua","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;">His words warmed me and
made me forget about the other men. “Me, too, Aleandro. You always made
arriving and leaving work that little bit more exciting.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Book Antiqua","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;">“Exciting, huh?” He’d
leaned in toward me, and suddenly my heart beat harder.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Book Antiqua","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;">I nodded. When I spoke, my
voice was breathy. “Definitely.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Book Antiqua","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;">He closed the gap between
us and brushed his lips softly against mine.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Book Antiqua","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;">My chest hitched with
surprise, though it wasn’t as though I hadn’t seen this coming. Aleandro and I
had been flirting for some time now, and I guessed the usual rule of no
fraternizing with the staff no longer applied. We could be facing the end of
the world, and I wasn’t going to let some stupid little rule hold me back.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Book Antiqua","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;">My eyes slipped shut, and
eagerly, I opened my mouth to him and pressed myself closer. He was so big,
just a wall of muscle I wanted to engulf myself in. Our tongues touched, and
excitement fired through me. My nipples crinkled beneath my shirt, and I pushed
my breasts against his wide chest, wanting the stimulation. I wrapped my hands
around his neck, lacing my fingers in the short soft strands at his nape. His
hands were around me, too, spanning my lower back and slipping lower to my ass.
He held me tight as we kissed, and I ground up on him, feeling how he wanted
me.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Book Antiqua","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;">Both our breathing had
quickened, and our kiss grew hungry.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Book Antiqua","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;">I ran my hands down from
his neck and across the bulky muscle of his back and shoulders. He felt so
strong, and I wished I could tear off his shirt and run my tongue over every
plane and curve. But we were in a corridor where someone might walk down at any
minute, and it wasn’t as though we had bedrooms we could drag each other back
to.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Book Antiqua","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;">Aleandro broke the kiss.
“God, Camille, I want you so bad.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Book Antiqua","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;">I was breathing heavily, my
breasts rising and falling. “Me, too.” I looked around. “But we can’t…not
here.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Book Antiqua","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;">“Come, this way.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Book Antiqua","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;">He took me by the hand and
pulled me along the corridor. Before long, we reached a door with a security
code pad on the outside. Aleandro quickly hit a number of buttons, and the pad
turned green to let us inside. He pushed through the door, still holding my
hand, and tugged me in with him. I took a moment to look around. We were in a
room that contained a number of security screens, and I realized the views were
of different places within the Observatory. The view switched, showing a
different corridor, or a different room, and I wondered if the kiss we’d shared
had been caught on camera.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Book Antiqua","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;">But Aleandro didn’t give me
the chance to ask. He turned to face me, and suddenly his hands were in my hair
and his tongue was in my mouth. He stepped forward, pushing me back, and the
rear of my thighs hit the desk behind. His hands left my hair and hooked under
my thighs, lifting me to sit on the desk.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Book Antiqua","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;">“Lie back,” he told me.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Book Antiqua","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;">“What—”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Book Antiqua","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;">But he grabbed one of my
feet and yanked off my sneaker before doing the same to the other one. With
that done, he went straight to the button of my jeans, kissing me again, his
teeth nipping my lower lip as he worked my zipper.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Book Antiqua","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;">“Fuck,” he said, staring down
at me with dark hunger in his eyes. “I’ve been thinking about how sweet your
pussy must taste ever since I first saw you.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Book Antiqua","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;">I widened my eyes. “You
have?”<a href="https://www.blogger.com/u/1/null" name="_GoBack"></a><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">

turned into a sexy growl. “You ever had a man eat you out, Camille? I mean,
really eat you—none of that dainty licking shit.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">

<br />
Most of you know me for my romance books. I've written lots of them! However, I've had a story brewing for well over a year now that is different to all the rest. This one is a psychological thriller, and if you like your books to make your heart race for a whole different reason, and have lots of twists and turns, I hope you'll enjoy <i>Some They Lie.</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
Keep reading for the first chapter!<br />

<div class="MsoNormalCxSpFirst" style="line-height: 120%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%;">The man hung by his
wrists from an iron hook embedded in the ceiling. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%;">She stood in front of
him, staring, contemplating her next move. His jaw pressed against his bare chest,
creating the appearance of a double chin where normally there was none.
Unconscious, for the moment, his whole body hung loose and slack. Because of the
low ceiling, the toes of his boots skated against the floor, giving him the
barest modicum of relief from the pressure in his wrists and shoulders, but
only when he was conscious enough to balance.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%;">The rope securing his
wrists didn’t keep her safe. It was the gag between his lips that kept danger
at bay, though she knew if he ever managed to work it free, things would be
different. He’d affected her already, made her do things she’d never believed
herself capable of, and she wouldn’t make that same mistake twice.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%;">Red stripes licked
across his naked torso, the result of the cane she’d been forced to use. She
needed answers, and while she couldn’t risk removing the gag, there were other
ways she could get him to reply. His refusal to give her anything had made her
hurt him, but still he shook his head in defiance every time she asked him what
she needed to know. She took no pleasure in the job, but she had to be brave.
It was all she had left, and she wouldn’t let this man—this <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">monster</i>—win.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%;">She was stronger than
that.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%;">He’d underestimated the
lengths she’d go to in order to make things right. Even with everything on his
side, all of his power, she’d still managed to overcome him.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%;">Nerves jangled through
her system, and the sour taste of fear coated her tongue. As he woke, her pulse
quickened, her breath growing shallow in her lungs. She tightened her fingers
around the cane and rolled out her neck and shoulders. It was physical work her
body wasn’t used to, and tension knotted her muscles. As she lifted her arms,
her shirt sleeve rode down, exposing the flash of white bandages and the
striking slash of red where the blood had seeped through. This was taking its
toll on her, but she had to continue until she got what she wanted.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Dela Stonebridge stood on the ridge of the fire
mountain, looking down into the Valley of the Dragons. The sun dipped beneath
the horizon, casting a fiery glow across the sky. Below her, the valley was
made up of black rock, the white skeletons of long-dead dragons embedded into
the surface. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">This was the place the dragons had come to die. But
not all of them. One such creature sat before her. His magnificent wings were
tucked into his huge body, his long neck stretched toward them, his red eyes
bright with curiosity.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Are

<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">At her feet lay the Dragonstone she’d dropped after
becoming overwhelmed with images of the beginning of the Second Great War. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">She bent and picked it back up, clutching the smooth, black
and red rock in her palm, its warmth pressing into her skin. If any of the
other three people with her tried to hold it, the stone would burn them. But
not her. No, she was a Dragonsayer—one of the few able to communicate with
dragons. She still had no idea what that meant for her, or for the future of
Xantearos, but someone who could harness the power of dragons would be the one
to control the direction of the world. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Dela didn’t want war, but over the last few weeks
she’d learned the price for peace had been too great. The other races had been
repressed, and wealth had been hoarded in her home city of Anthoinia. King and
Queen Crowmere might not have been the ones to create the Treaty, but they had
continued with it, taking more gold and jewels from the other races, telling
everyone the coal was needed to fire their furnaces and that they were helping
the other races by giving them food in return. But in truth, this was only
another way of keeping the populations of the other races small and not
powerful enough to fight back. The Treaty had even taken away the Elvish’s
right to do magic—an ability that was as old as they were. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Dela had grown up believing this was just the way it
should be, but her eyes had been opened now, and she’d never allow them to be
shut again.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">The wind coming off The Lonely Strait—the ocean that
lay beyond Drusga, the Valley of the Dragons—tore through her hair like angry fingers.
The air brought with it the stink of sulfur, and smoldering heat and smoke rose
from the rock they stood upon. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">She turned to the three men with her. Warsgra—the
biggest of them all, a Norc, and a fierce fighter—stood, bare-chested in only
his boots, the piece of leather around his waist, and his shoulder guards. Beside
him was Orergon, the protector and hunter, and a Moerian with eyes as black as
night. He was still covered in the sludge they’d almost lost him to on the
journey up the side of the fire mountain, his brown skin barely visible through
the black crust. And next to Orergon stood silver-haired Vehel, the bringer of
magic, who had saved them all, but who had also started the Second Great War by
doing so. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Her heart wrenched. She cared for them all deeply, and
the thought of them being divided by war tore her in two. There was the chance
they would choose to leave her, to go back to be with their own people. Their
own kind needed them now more than ever. Each were powerful fighters and
leaders of their own kind. When did a race need their people more than during a
time of war?<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Whatever else happened, she could never bring herself
to fight against any of them. But what if they stood against her, and she
refused to fight? Didn’t that mean she’d have failed before she’d even got
started?<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Before them, the dragon rose to his scaly feet and
extended his wings.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">“What’s he doing?” Orergon’s normally sure voice
quavered with nerves.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Dela shook her head. “I’m not sure.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">“Can you ask him?” Warsgra shot her a glance.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">“I don’t know how. I don’t know how to control this
yet.” She glanced down at the stone in her palm.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">The dragon suddenly seemed twice as big. His wings
stretched wide then he gave a couple of experimental flaps. Black rocks and
pieces of dragon bone scattered in the wind the creature’s wings created. The
dragon lifted his head and shrieked, the sound ancient and mournful and terrifying,
bouncing off the walls of the valley and echoing around them. A shiver ran down
Dela’s spine in response.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">“I don’t like this.” Vehel took a step back.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Dela tightened her fingers around the stone, hoping it
would give her some insight into what the dragon was thinking. She willed
herself to experience that same tumbling feeling, like plummeting into a black
hole, only to wake inside the dragon’s head, but nothing happened.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">The dragon stretched out his long neck, revealing the
intricate pattern of scales on the underside, a lighter color than the emerald
greens and multi-faceted shades of blues and purples on the top of the animal’s
body. He was truly beautiful and terrifying all at the same time.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">He opened his mouth and exhaled, sending a plume of
red, yellow, and white flames into the darkening sky.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Behind them, the ponies whinnied in fear, stamping
their hooves and snorting hot air in their agitation.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">The dragon fixed them with his red gaze, and Dela’s
heart raced.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">He lifted his wings and beat the air slowly but with
great power, his massive body rising into the air. He seemed so much larger
with his wings outspread, and, despite their span, Dela marveled how something
of his size could even get airborne.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">“We should move.” Orergon grabbed her by the arm and
took a couple of steps back.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">She shook him off. “No, it’s fine.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Warsgra had also backed away. “I don’t know, Dela. I
think Orergon is right. He doesn’t look happy.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">The dragon wouldn’t hurt her, would he? She’d felt so
connected to the creature, as though she’d inhabited a part of his mind. Only
now did it occur to her that the dragon might not appreciate the intrusion.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">But Warsgra was right, he didn’t seem happy now. The
creature managed to stay in one spot, beating his wings to negate the weight of
his body. His red eyes fixed on her, and fear shot through her veins like iced
water.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">“Dela, do something,” Vehel called.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">She shook her head and widened her eyes. “I don’t know
how.” She tightened her fingers around the Dragonstone, willing the searing
heat to return, but nothing changed. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">The great beast’s wings flapped again, sending dust
and dirt flying toward them. His massive chest swelled as he inhaled a deep breath.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">“Run!” Warsgra growled.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">He wrapped his fingers around Dela’s hand and yanked
her away. Orergon and Vehel moved with them as they fled, running across the
ridge, the drop precarious on the other side. A mighty spout of red, orange,
and yellow flames erupted toward them. Behind them, the ponies whinnied. The
group had long since lost their hold on the animals, and they galloped away,
panicked, the whites of their eyes showing, their ears flattened against their
skulls. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">The flames did not hit the area where they’d been standing
but a little farther down the ridge face. That didn’t prevent them from feeling
the heat from the fire, however. The blast of smoke and heat hit Dela from
behind, throwing her forward.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">She lost her hold on Warsgra’s hand and landed on all
fours and skidded. She managed to keep hold of the Dragonstone, but the impact skinned
her knuckles on that hand, and her other palm, pieces of volcanic rock embedded
in her flesh. She gasped in pain, but before she’d even caught her breath,
Warsgra hauled her back to her feet again. The dragon was still in the air to
their right, its wings beating to stay airborne.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">“We have to keep going this way!” Orergon shouted,
pointing along the ridge.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Dela knew what he meant. They were traversing the fire
mountain, rather than heading back down the way they’d climbed up. They’d never
make it a second time through the black sludge that had almost swallowed Orergon.
Black rocks and dirt scattered beneath their feet, skittering down the side of
the fire mountain as they ran. Dela risked a glance over her shoulder. The
dragon veered toward them, and for a moment she thought he would attack again,
but he kept going. His wings beat the air, and he banked around to head back
the way he had first arrived, toward the Lonely Strait. Growing smaller in the
distance, the dragon breached the tops of the hills on the other side of the
valley and vanished from view.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Gasping for breath, sweat pouring down her brow, Dela
staggered to a halt. She clung to Warsgra’s arm to stay upright. The stink of
sulfur and the smoke from the flames caught in the back of her throat, and a cough
burst from her lungs. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">They all slowed to a stop. Dela’s coughing subsided,
but her lungs burned. She remained bent over, her hands on her knees.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Orergon’s hand pressed against her back. “Are you
okay?”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">She nodded and straightened. “Yes, I will be.” <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Despite her words, she found herself blinking back
tears that were caused by more than the coughing. An ache had lodged deep in
her chest. Rejected—that was how she felt, as though she’d offered up her heart
to someone and they had taken it then stomped it all over the ground.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">“Think you can keep going?” the Moerian asked.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">“We don’t have much choice. It’s not as though we can
stay here.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Plumes of grey and white smoke billowed into the sky
above them. This was caused by the fire mountain rather than the dragon. A
combination of steam and smoke drifted in patches from the black rock. This fire
mountain hadn’t blown for a very long time, but it was definitely still active.
It would be just their luck for it to erupt now.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">“What happened to the ponies?” she asked between another
coughing fit.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Orergon looked in the direction across the ridge and
down the other side. “They ran this way. They’re not stupid. They knew not to
go near that sludge. We’ll find them again.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">“We have no idea what we’re walking into by going this
way either,” she pointed out. “And the ponies have got all our stuff in their
packs—we don’t even have water.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">“Let’s keep descending,” Warsgra said. “We don’t know
what’s going to be at the bottom on the west side of the fire mountain. There
might be a fresh water source, so we won’t have to worry so much about the
ponies.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">“We still need them,” she insisted. “They’ve got our
canvases and bedding as well. Plus, it’s far easier to ride than be on foot.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Warsgra snorted. “Easier for you, maybe. My feet are
still on the ground even when I’m riding the damn thing.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">“It’s not the pony’s fault you’re so damned big.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Truth was, she missed the animals already. She’d grown
fond of her pony, Ghost, and she didn’t want him either drowning in sludge, or
ending up as a meal for the dragon. And though she had no idea what they were
going to do next, all she could see in her mind was her vision of the army
being put together in Anthoinia, and how they’d be marching to the West coast.
Did the other races know they would be under attack? Were they preparing as
well? She needed this knowledge, but the only way she knew how to get it was
through the dragon’s eyes, and she didn’t know how to control the dragon. The
army would be forced to march through the Southern Pass, which would be a danger
in itself, but once they got through, they’d fight the Norcs at the Southern
Trough, initially, and then she guessed they’d head down, toward the
Inverlands, to deal with the Elvish.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">She hoped the other races knew the humans had found
out the Treaty had been broken. Though she wanted to be loyal to her own kind,
she also didn’t want the other races to be unprepared. She didn’t want the human
army descending upon them unawares, turning this into a massacre rather than a
battle.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">The group continued to climb down, missing their
footing every now and then, sending small rock falls skittering before them. As
the light started to fade from the sky, it grew harder to make out where they
were going. The ridge began to level off, taking them to the western side of
the fire mountain, away from the valley. Dela tried to watch her footing, but
her gaze pulled toward the darkening sky, her heart yearning, wishing she could
see the dragon again. Where had he gone? So high in the sky, it was impossible
for any of them to see? Was that how he’d evaded being noticed for so many
years, leading people to believe they were extinct? It was pure speculation,
but she needed to know. She wanted to learn everything there was to learn about
the magnificent creature, and figure out what their connection meant. She’d
never imagined her heart could be stolen by anything but a human man, but it
had, and not just by the dragon either. She looked around at the three males
who had supported her this whole time, who’d not for a moment acted as though
they would abandon her. They weren’t human either, and yet she felt
inexplicably linked to them now. If they decided they needed to go back to be
with their own races during this time, her heart would be broken. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">But a broken heart could continue to beat, albeit with
a different rhythm than before. She wanted to return home herself, to tell her
parents she was still alive, but deep down she knew the world had bigger things
to offer her than a simple life living in a small house in the back streets of
Anthoinia. Even if she had to do this alone, she’d keep trying. She’d do
whatever necessary to make the dragon understand that he could trust her.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">“Are you all right, Dela?” Vehel’s soft voice asked
from beside her.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">She bit her lower lip and nodded. “I’m all right.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">“He didn’t want you dead.” The Elvish prince ducked
his head, looking at her through his silvery hair. “If he had wanted that, he
could have killed you in a second. I think that was more of a warning.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">She offered him a wan smile. “He felt me inside his head
this time. I think before, he kind of knew I was there, but not to the point
where I might be able to affect what he’s doing or thinking. This time he
could, and I don’t know if that’s just because we were so physically close, or
because I had this.” She held out the hand still clutching the Dragonstone.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Warsgra looked ahead. “We should still get out of
here. The dragon might come back, and I don’t think he’ll be too happy to find
us here if he does.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">She shook her head. “We can’t just leave! We’ve come
all this way.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">“If you stay,” Vehel said softly, “he might kill you.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">“No, you said that was just a warning.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">“Yes, but a warning that’s unheeded will turn to
something more. He didn’t want to kill you, but that doesn’t mean he won’t, if
he thinks you’re a danger.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">She felt as though she was failing once more. “We’ve
come all this way. We can’t leave now. A war has started, and we need a way to
get through to people. We aren’t going to achieve anything on our own.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Orergon’s hand pressed on her shoulder. “You’re right,

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">“I think I have an idea,” Vehel said.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Dela looked to him. “I’ll hear it.” <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">“There’s an ancient Seer who lives on an island at the
most northern point of Xantearos, in the Lonely Strait. We could travel there
and see if she knows more. She’s lived in the north for hundreds of years, and
I believe she’ll know more about the dragons and Dragonstone than anyone else
we could speak to.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Warsgra frowned, his heavy brow drawing down.
“Reaching an island in the Lonely Strait would be dangerous.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Dela stepped in. “Everything about this is dangerous.
Facing an angry dragon is dangerous. Leaving this place and making the huge
journey back to our homelands is dangerous. We can’t <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">not</i> do something simply because we’re frightened of what might
happen.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Warsgra straightened his shoulders and lifted his
chin. “Who said anything about being frightened?”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">“Doing nothing is what’s going to be more dangerous.”
She looked around at them. “You didn’t see what I did—thousands of men dressed
in soldier uniforms, setting out to cross to the West coast. Assuming others
from your races lived through the Southern Pass, word will have got back to
them about the Treaty being broken. They’ll either also be preparing themselves
for war, or they won’t know anything about it, and they’ll be slaughtered.
Either way, thousands of lives will be lost. I’m trying to protect everyone. The
soldiers aren’t all trained army men being sent out to fight. Those are boys
and young men from all the families in Anthoinia. They don’t know the truth of
what they’re fighting for. They’ve probably been told the other races are rising
up against humans, and this is the only way for them to protect their homes and
way of life. They won’t know that they’re being used as pawns to force the
Elvish, and Norcs, and Moerians into a certain way of life, and in turn keep
King and Queen Crowmere wealthy.” Dela stopped and took a breath and then
looked to Vehel. “How long do you think it will take us to reach this Seer?”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">“It’s probably only a day or so to the coast by foot.
And I believe the island is visible from the shore, so it’s probably only a
couple of miles out.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">“We’re lacking a boat,” Warsgra said.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">“And the Northern seas are filled with sea beasts,”
Orergon joined in. “There’s no way we can swim it.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Vehel pressed his lips together. “We can build a raft.
My people are fishermen, and it won’t be the first I’ve built. As long as we
can gather materials, we can build something strong enough to get us there
safely.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Warsgra lifted his eyebrows. “Assuming we don’t get
eaten by sea monsters.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 120%; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">“Yes, assuming we don’t get eaten by sea monsters.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Dela looked up at the sky. They were losing light by
the minute. “It’s too dark to continue now. We should find ourselves somewhere
to rest and continue in the morning.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">A sting in her palm snatched her attention, and she
looked down to find blood dripping from the ends of her fingers onto the hard

<br />
Whoop! Today is release day for my second book in the fantastic 'A Vampire's Thirst' world, created by A.K. Michaels. The first book I wrote for this series is called 'A Vampire's Thirst: Nikolai' and this second book features one of the other vampire characters, Ivan. You don't need to have read Nikolai to appreciate Ivan, but it will give you a bit more insight into the characters if you do.<br />
<br />
Here's a bit more about the book...<br />

I'm so excited today as my new book for my brand new series releases! I love all the books I write, but sometimes I write something that just feels special, and 'Through a Dragon's Eyes' has been one of those books.

What feels like many months ago now, the fabulous A K Michaels approached me to ask if I would like to join a team of fantastic paranormal romance authors to write in her shared world of A Vampire's Thirst. I was crazy busy at the time with my publishing schedule already booked six months ahead, but I LOVE vampires - they've been a passion of mine since I was a teenager - and I just couldn't bring myself to say no. So I wriggled some stuff around and created some time, and wrote the first in my Vampire's Thirst books, Nikolai, which will be out on the 13th of March!<br />

Russian vampire Nikolai Petrov is forced by his maker to a meeting in a shady nightclub run by werewolves when it hits him—a craving for blood and sex, like nothing he’s ever experienced before—and his darkest vampire desires are unleashed.</div>

<br />Nikolai knows he has to find her. If he doesn’t, the Thirst will take hold for good, and the number of deaths will be catastrophic—including his own. But Nikolai isn’t the only one after his Bloodmate. An older vampire has paid to own her, because Nikolai’s Bloodmate isn’t purely human...</div>

<div class="MsoNormalCxSpFirst" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">“I can’t believe you’re asking
this of me.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Nikolai Petrov stood facing the
floor to ceiling windows of his home, gazing out over the London skyline, so he
didn’t have to look at the vampire behind him. Before him stretched London’s
Docklands, with the Canary Wharf tower rising into the night sky. The winding
curve of the River Thames appeared black at this time of night, the only light
reflected from the surrounding buildings. This place was nothing like his
motherland, Russia, but, after almost fifty years, it was a place he’d come to
think of as home.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Nikolai shook his head then
turned to his visitor. “You know I like to keep my business clean, Ivan.” <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">The second vampire was dark
compared to his own fair looks, and had been older when he’d been turned, too,
in his early thirties rather than late twenties as Nikolai had been. Both men
were smartly dressed, though Ivan appeared more ruffled than normal, his tie
yanked to one side, the top button of his shirt open. Nikolai’s shirt was also
open, and he didn’t wear a tie. The sleeves of his shirt were rolled up his
forearms, but he’d done this deliberately. Ivan’s dishevelled appearance looked
less intentional. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">The other vampire’s lips
pursed. “You’re making a far bigger deal of this than it really is.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Nikolai cocked an eyebrow. “Investing
three million pounds into my funds is a big deal.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">“Bullshit. You deal with bigger
funds every day.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">“Yeah, and I know exactly where
that money is coming from. Don’t try to tell me this money is going to be
clean. We both know Deacon Thorn deals in some dodgy shit.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Ivan shrugged. “He used to have
the occasional thing on the side, but he’s been moving away from all of that
for a long time. His clubs are all legit now, and he wants to continue with
everything being legal, which is why he asked me to come to you. I guess he
thought you’d understand, what with your background.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Nikolai frowned at him. “And
why should he ask you for anything, Ivan? What did you do? What is it you owe
him? Is it just about the money? If it’s about money, I have plenty. I’ll just
pay whatever you owe.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">But Ivan shook his head. “No,
it’s not. And he doesn’t only want the money. He wants an investment
opportunity, and he likes how everyone knows you’re always above board. That’s
why he asked me to come to you.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">“I won’t be above board if I
start to get involved with that son of a bitch.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Ivan’s dark eyes grew hard. “I’m
asking one simple thing from you, Nikolai. Stop making such a big deal out of
it.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">“Investing millions into my
funds is not a simple thing.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">“All it would take you is the
click of a key on a computer.” His shoulders slumped and his tone changed to
pleading. “Just come and meet with him, Nikolai. He’s not as bad as the rumours
make out. He’s a businessman, just like you and I.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">“He’s a wolf.” Nikolai wrinkled
his nose. “That’s never a good thing in my book.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">“You should judge people on <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">who </i>they are, not <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">what</i> they are,” Ivan scolded. “People aren’t exactly fond of
vampires either, you know.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Nikolai gave a cold laugh.
“Well, he fails on both who and what he is.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">He turned back to look out at
the London skyline. Normally, the expanse of lights brought him some comfort,
but tonight he found he could only focus on his reflection staring back at him.
Nikolai’s eyes were a pale shade of blue, almost appearing silvery in some
light. His dark blond hair was just a shade away from brown. The effect,
together with his pale skin, made his reflection look like a ghost, and he
found the thought unnerving.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Ivan exhaled a frustrated
lungful of air. “I hope you’re not saying no to me, Nikolai, not after
everything I did for you.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">“That was a long time ago.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">“And I’ve never asked for a
single thing in return. If it wasn’t for me, you’d be dead, and most of your
family would have been wiped out.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">“Most of them are gone now
anyway,” he growled.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">“That tends to happen after
fifty years walking the earth, but they have descendents, which they wouldn’t
have if I’d not stepped in.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Everything Ivan said was the
truth. Nikolai had moved to London not long after he’d turned him from human to
vampire. He’d had to in order to escape the <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Bratva—</i>the
Russian mafia—with which his family had been deeply involved.<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"> </i>He was killed by a rival family who had
put out a hit on him because they hadn’t liked some of the contacts he was
making. They’d shot him and left him for dead in the middle of a frozen
alleyway. But a vampire had stumbled across him and had turned him then and
there, feeding him from his own veins, and leaving fresh blood drops in the
white snow.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Ivan turning him meant Nikolai
was able to kill the man who had ordered the hit, but knowing what he was, he
worried it would come back on his family, so he left Moscow for London. He’d
never been back, but that didn’t mean he didn’t miss the place with every fibre
of his soul. He often wondered what the next generations were doing, if they’d
managed to get out of the organised crime business, or if his family’s
ancestors were still deeply involved. He hoped they’d made it out, but that was
their business now. It wouldn’t do any of them any good for him to re-enter
their lives. He’d cause them more trouble than anything else.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">A low growl of anger rumbled
deep in Nikolai’s chest. If it had been anyone else asking this of him, he
would have caught them up by the throat and thrown them from his penthouse by
now, but this wasn’t anyone. Ivan Sokolov made him who he was today, and he
owed him more than just his life.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">“If you won’t say yes right
away, at least come and meet with Deacon. He’ll be able to convince you that
he’s genuine about wanting to do business with you.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Nikolai scowled. “I don’t doubt
that. It’s the kind of business he wants to do that’s the problem.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">“He trusts you, Nikolai. He’s
seen you have a head for the market, and he thinks you’re the one who can make
his money grow.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">“It’s where that money is
coming from that concerns me.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; tab-stops: right 451.3pt; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Ivan’s
lips thinned, his nostrils flaring. “One meeting, Nikolai. That’s all I ask.
Surely you can’t refuse me that?”<span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Nikolai clenched his jaw, his
fists balled at his sides. Ivan had put him in an impossible place. His maker
had never asked for a single thing from him as thanks and had helped him take
down the man who’d arranged to end his human life—something that hadn’t been
easy when he’d been a new vampire and not yet in control of his bloodlust. Ivan
had taught him everything, and he wouldn’t have the life he had now if it
hadn’t been for Ivan’s help. He was only asking for a meeting, and then Nikolai
could tell the wolf to get lost face-to-face, if that was what he decided. He
would be able to take the blame, rather than it falling on Ivan.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">“Fine,” he relented. “Arrange
the meeting.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Ivan’s shoulders relaxed.
“Thank you. I’ll set up a meeting for tomorrow night.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Nikolai lifted a finger.
“First, one thing. What did you do to give a wolf something to hold over you?”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; text-indent: 22.7pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Ivan pulled a face. “I slept with
his daughter.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<br />
My brand new Urban Fantasy novel, 'Flux' is out today! This is the start of a brand new series, and a slight change in direction for me, which I'm really excited about. And if you have Kindle Unlimited, you can read Flux for free with your subscription, but don't worry if you don't have KU, because for a short while only, Flux is available to buy for only $0.99!<br />
<br />
Here's a little more about the book!<br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i>I was just like any other twenty-two-year-old until a
horrific tragedy changes everything. </i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i><br /></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i>When I wake up in hospital with barely a scratch, strange
things start happening. At first I believe I’m being haunted by my lost loved
one, until a leather-jacketed man called Hunter confronts me. Turns out the paranormal
events are coming from within me, and the terrible incident has released an
ability I have no control over. </i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i><br /></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i>And I’m not the only one.</i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i><br /></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i>Hunter takes me deep beneath my home city of San Francisco to
become part of a secret group of people known as The Kin. Each member of The
Kin has a special talent—the ability to control things with our minds. But
others are onto us—men who desire to use us for their own gains.</i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i><br /></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i>Can I protect the people I have left, or will my powers be
my downfall?</i></div>

A little earlier this year, myself and some other British author friends decided to put a boxed set together containing what we know best - British bad boys! That set is now up for pre-order for only $0.99! So that's seven brand new stories for only $0.99, but the price will be going up after publication, and won't be around for long, so grab it now!<br />

Although 2016 has been a pretty terrible one in many respects, I'm happy to say it's been a good one for me and my writing, and I'll be leaving 2016 in a great place. Only a week ago, the boxed set for my vampire <i>Serenity</i> <i>series</i> hit the top one hundred best seller list overall, and number thirty-three on the bestseller list over at Barnes and Noble. In the last week, the book has sold almost four thousand copies, which has been incredible. You <a href="http://getbook.at/CompleteSerenity" target="_blank">can still grab it</a> for $0.99/£0.99 if you haven't already!<br />
<br />
As well as writing, I had a couple of fantastic events which I attended - the second birthday party for the facebook group THE Book Club (if you're not a member yet, give me a shout and I'll add you). This group has been so supportive over the last twelve months, and at the party I got to meet some fantastic readers, and authors who I've only ever met online (including the lovely Mel Comley who was one of my first author friends), and the queen of THE Book Club, Tracy Fenton, herself!<br />
<br />
I also got to attend the Tiverton Literary Festival again this year, where I ran one of my self-publishing workshops to a small but very enthusiastic group. I moved the workshop to an online platform this year and hope to be running more workshops during the year. Self-publishing hasn't just been a way of getting my work out, it's also been a way of joining a supportive community, and I've made numerous friends during the six years I've been self-publishing for.<br />

In total this year, I've managed to publish another six books. I started the year with <i>Denied</i>, and <i>Delivered</i>, the final two books in my <a href="http://viewbook.at/Defaced" target="_blank">dark romance 'Monster'</a> trilogy, which takes inspiration from <i>Beauty and the Beast. </i><br />

I was then thrilled to join the team of authors writing the <i>Blood Courtesans </i>books, and wrote my own novella, <i><a href="http://getbook.at/StolenBloodCourtesans" target="_blank">Stolen</a></i>. I also released the boxed set <i><a href="http://getbook.at/ThreeAlpha" target="_blank">Three</a> </i>which contains three of my contemporary novels.<br />

Finally, I wrote and released the first book in my new<i> Mercenary</i> series, <i><a href="http://getbook.at/Skewed" target="_blank">Skewed</a></i>. I wrote book two, <i><a href="http://getbook.at/Warped" target="_blank">Warped </a></i>as well, which will be out on the 26th of January.<br />
<br />
On top of the novels, I also published a couple of audiobooks, plus had stories included in boxed sets and anthologies - <i>Shifters and Spice</i> boxed set (which is currently on kindle countdown sale), the horror anthology <i>'13' </i>from Limitless Publishing, and the anthology <i>Sexy just got Kinky </i>from the Brit Babes.<br />
<br />
As you can see, it's been a busy year!<br />
<br />
So, what are my plans for 2017?<br />
<br />
Definitely more books coming your way!<br />
<br />
I'll have a brand new pnr novella included in a boxed set in the spring, plus there is another <i>'13'</i> horror anthology which will be released in 2017. I'm also planning on writing another <i>Blood Courtesans</i> book, which will following a couple of the characters from <i>Stolen</i>.<br />
<br />

For my own books, my main focus for the start of the year will be on my <i>Mercenary </i>series. <i><a href="http://getbook.at/Warped" target="_blank">Warped</a> </i>is out on the 26th of January and is already up for pre-order, and I plan to start writing book three (title as yet undecided) as soon as possible. I have a couple of sexy shifter novellas which are stand alone series books, which I would like to get out at some point in 2017, and then I plan on starting a brand new urban fantasy series, <i>The Mind Movers</i>. I actually have about 20,000 words of the first book already written, as I started writing it as a novella for a boxed set, but then it got bigger and bigger, and I realised the story was far too big to ever fit into a novella!<br />
<br />
At some point this year, I would love to take the time to write something a little different for me. I have two works in progress - a post apocalyptic story, and a paranormal thriller - and so would love to work on one of these. I think it's good to work the writing brain by writing something completely different every now and then!<br />
<br />
And that's about it from me! I hope you have a wonderful new year, and wish you much success and happiness for 2017!<br />
<br />
Thanks for reading!<br />

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">It
started with a photograph.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.45pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">A
single, crazy, adrenaline-filled moment of madness.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.45pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">I’d
had enough of being ignored, of being the maid, the chef, the chauffeur to my
unappreciative family. I dreamed of the days when men used to drop to their
knees before me in the streets. They’d beg to buy me drinks, just to get me to
spend a little time in their company, and, if they were lucky, snatch a kiss
and take me home to their bed. Now, I was invisible. A mother, a wife, a
housekeeper. I longed to be seen as something sexual again, and so I took the
photo.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.45pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">I
made sure not to include my face. I didn’t want to be identified. Instead, I
held the camera on my phone with one hand and cupped my breasts with the other,
squeezing them together so the tops lifted and rounded in globes. My nipples
peeped between my fingers, crinkled and hard. The lighting wasn’t perfect, and
I had no idea what filters to use, but that didn’t matter.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.45pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">I
posted it online.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.45pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">It
was on one of the popular social media sites, known more for its raunchy posts
than some of the others. I’d used the site to watch porno GIFs often enough,
but I’d never had the guts to comment or post something of my own.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.45pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">Until
now.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.45pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">I
gave myself an online name—<i>theanonymouslife</i>.
All one word.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.45pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">It
was only a single picture, but already my emotions surged up inside me, making
me feel alive—a mixture of excitement and guilt, and horniness.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.45pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">Already,
I was addicted.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.45pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">I
stayed on the computer, checking for comments and reblogs. People liked my
tits, it seemed. More than my husband, who hadn’t laid a finger on me in
forever. There were a couple of negative notes, but I brushed over them in
favour of the positive ones. Damn trolls were everywhere.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.45pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">I
don’t know why I got such a thrill from posting my picture online, or why I’d
even felt the need to do it at all. Maybe there was anger in me, a
resentfulness I couldn’t shift, and posting the photo felt a little bit like
revenge. Or rebellion. I resented my husband for plunging me into a life of
celibacy that I’d never asked for. I’d always been a sexual person, and still
was, but now sex was denied to me. My children stole my body away, though they
never asked to do that, and I would never hold them responsible. I love my
kids. They are the one thing that keeps me walking the straight and narrow when
all I want to do is run, screaming, throwing off my clothes and frustrations as
I do so. I dream of a future alone, where I can pick and choose men as I
please, allow them in my life for a short while, only to continue alone once
more. Sometimes now, I feel like I barely have enough time to have a thought to
myself without being interrupted. I can feel the years slipping away, knowing
I’ll never get them back. I’m only in my early thirties—too young to be this
dried up person already—and the thought of the rest of my life as a sexless
woman terrifies me. I love my husband, I do, but he doesn’t seem to have any
interest in me anymore. He’s always too tired from a long day at work. I don’t
know if he has no interest in sex in general or if it’s just me that no longer
excites him. I can’t say I blame him. After seeing the births of two babies,
I’m not sure I’d excite me either. But I can’t bring myself to break up our
home, can’t stand the thought of the hurt in our children’s eyes if we
separated. Plus, he’s a good guy. I like his company, most of the time. We’re
just missing that important element.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.45pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">So,
instead of dealing with the real problem at hand, I took the photograph.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.45pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">It
was harmless. I wasn’t hurting anyone. But quickly I discovered one picture was
not enough.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

country. Worse, he's my own father. I have my sister to keep safe, and a hot,
deadly hit man on my trail. Only one thing to do … see who gets the first shot.
But don't worry about me, I'm no sweet young thing. In fact, I may just be as deadly
as the guy who's out to end me.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

ruthless mafia Don in New York—my father. For the past few months, my sister
and I have been in Witness Protection, and I’m determined to live long enough
to testify against him. I knew he'd send someone after me. But I didn't bank on
a hit man known only as X, with cheekbones sharp enough to grate Italian cheese,
and muscles that won't quit. But what he doesn't know just may kill him. Behind
my pretty façade, I’m a cold-blooded killer. Too bad X is determined to end me,
or I might just fall for those piercing blue eyes.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Guerra turns up dead. A beautiful face won’t stop me from doing my job. Killing
isn’t just my work—it’s in my blood. But her dark eyes, silky hair, and tattoos
mask a lethal killer. Finally, someone worthy to be called my mark. When her
little sister goes missing, we have only one question—do we stop trying to kill
each other long enough to get her back?<o:p></o:p></span></div>
