Eyes On The Storm

The Innocence in Your Eyes

"Why can't you hate me? I am a witch, after all. The last of my kind. Kill me, and the very creature you despise to the core will be extinct. So..." Ava balled her fist and struck Felix’s chest, her tears tracing silent paths down her face. "Hate me, General. Hate me! Why won’t you just hate me?" He grasped her wrist, halting her soft attacks. "Has anyone ever told you that your eyes resemble the second-brightest star when they glisten with your tears?" he asked. "What?" Ava frowned at the sudden shift in topic. "But..." He pulled her closer. "Do you know when they resemble the brightest one?" Ava’s lips parted, but no sound escaped them. Felix gently brushed a strand of her hair and tucked it behind her ear. "When you look at me with that innocence in your eyes." He paused, their gazes locking, eyes drowning into each other’s. "You want me to hate you? Then teach me. Teach me how to hate someone whose eyes hold the innocence of holy water." --- Ava Sideris, the last of her kind, is forced to flee when the royal princess, driven by unrequited love for General Felix Hellstern, threatens to expose her secret to the nation. Fearing for Felix’s reputation and her own life, Ava annuls their marriage and goes into exile. However, Felix has no intention of letting her go—he's hunting her. But... Will his resolve remain firm when he learns that his ex-wife is the very creature he despises to his core? Will he accept her for who she truly is—a witch—or will his acceptance be nothing more than a deception, leading to a betrayal she never saw coming? [CLICK THE CHAPTERS TO GET YOUR ANSWERS]

Whispers in the storm

Eleanor Hartley, a pragmatic and ambitious journalist, is drawn to a remote lighthouse inherited from her late great-uncle, a man she never met. Her visit coincides with a fierce storm that not only rattles the coastline but also unearths buried secrets. Upon arrival, she encounters Nathaniel, a mysterious man whose presence stirs something deep within her. He claims to be connected to her family’s past, and his cryptic warnings about those hunting him force Eleanor to confront an unsettling truth: his troubled history is entwined with hers in ways she could never have imagined. As Eleanor delves deeper into Nathaniel's past, she discovers a dark legacy of betrayal, a family massacre, and an elusive killer who will stop at nothing to keep the truth buried. Torn between her growing feelings for Nathaniel and the danger surrounding them, Eleanor is pulled into a web of deceit, shadowed by the voices of the past. The storm outside mirrors the rising tension between them, and Eleanor must decide if she can trust Nathaniel, or if he is hiding something even darker. As their bond deepens, both are forced to confront their darkest fears—secrets that threaten not only their love but their lives. With the storm closing in and no one to trust, Eleanor faces the ultimate choice: uncover the truth and risk everything, or let the past consume them both. But the closer they get to the answers, the more dangerous the game becomes. In the end, love may be the only thing strong enough to survive the storm, but at what cost?
