Call it petty or perhaps foolish, if you will, but to Lauren, her small revenge became the last saving straw in her drowning life. Betrayed by her own family, who had her incarcerated for a crime committed by her older sister, Lauren wanted to end her life when they also went ahead and disowned her after her release from prison. So as a coping mechanism, Lauren made it her life mission to teach her family a small lesson by denying her sister, Laura, the joy of being with the only man that she has ever loved as a little token of payment for all that she had to endure from them. For years, Lauren lay in wait as she worked as a bar hostess and planned her simple but well-elaborated revenge against her parents' "golden child." But finding out that she was pregnant with another man's baby not so long after the wedding was never part of her plans.  So Lauren knew then that it was time to draw the curtains closed before her "husband" finds out that he has been duped. She needs to RUN! So what happens when this said husband too has no intention of letting her get away with this scot-free and intends to find his "fake" wife and make sure that she pays for her deception? What happens then when she realises that the man that she has been searching for is none other than the very husband that she has been running away from? Will she go and claim him back, or will she continue to let her sister be with him?

The CIA conducts an experiment that goes wildly wrong, trapping Flat Flanagan, a 1920s Private Eye, age of 29, in the 21st Century. With no way back, Flat takes up Director Gresson’s offer and becomes the CIA’s last Private Eye. However, things aren’t all tulips & roses as there's the boiling-hot election making hell look like a paradise in comparison. Mr. Beckdette, the Mob Boss running for President, has been holding hidden cards up his sleeve and it soon becomes clear to Director Gresson that it’s up to Private Eye Flat to “hit on all sixes” to keep this Mob Boss from turning a game of “Political Blackjack” into a game of “Nuclear Craps”. With odds stacked against him, can Flat Flanagan stop this modern Mob Boss with old-school gumshoeing, noir justice, and a large glass of egg creams? Or will Mr. Beckdette win the pot and send the Private Eye spinning out into his thirties with a crash harder than the stock market of the 1930s?

No one knows their origins. No one knows where they came from and why? But for as long as humanity can remember monsters were always a part of their lives. People did not feel the need to care as they had people to protect them. ‘Rangers’ were the name of the people risking their lives to save mankind from extinction. As the most sought after career in modern society. Academies all over the world have been training young minds to achieve this goal. One such academy was by far the most superior of them all. Evergreen Highcrest Academy from the kingdom of Eldoria a kingdom ruled by elven people. Accepting only talent regardless of their backgrounds. As spotless as their reputation has been these past years they will find it difficult to keep it clean this year as the new students isn’t what anyone was expecting.

"Take the heaven as one's wife, and the earth as one's concubine. Take the mundane life as one's cauldron, the grand road of the Yin and Yang, Dual Cultivation. Lock the yin of death from the heaven, suppress the yang of fate, seize the lust of the sky, give birth to the evil dao... Bind the stars as witnesses, and the moon as the judge, walk the shadowed path of the forgotten, where the rivers of innocence drain into the sea of corruption... Cultivate the forbidden arts, where the whispers of the damned guide one’s hand, and the tears of the gods become the elixir of immortality... Wed the heavens with blades of sorrow, take the earth with chains of blood. In the cauldron of mortal woes, stir the dark essence of Yin, birthing the sinister path of Yang... From the desires of the skies, grasp the forbidden lust, in the twilight’s shadow, where even gods distrust, The Evil Dao births, from the ashes of the just." ______ Discord: https://discord.gg/dsc4fftBeF **Cover Page is not owned by Author**
