Katia

Dreamwalker's Bride

“You are the least objectionable groom of all the ones I’ve seen,” Anaisa replied seriously. “Thank you for the glowing compliment,” Trace grinned, “but that didn’t quite answer my question.” ___ Anaisa is an orphan and a pariah. In an ultimate act of betrayal, her father, a Count of the Realm, is accused of deserting and betraying the army in a time of war. Not only is he immediately executed for the offense, but the king declares he must have been a fake all along! His two daughters are stripped of their titles and inheritance, replaced by a distant cousin and cast out of their home with nothing. Anaisa swears someday she will get her title and lands back, but in the mean time, she and her sister Katia have to figure out how to survive. Trace is an anomaly among his people; instead of revealing their son as a magic user and thrusting him into the public eye, his parents kept it a secret to allow him to choose the kind of life he wanted. Trace found himself content to rest and play in his own dream world instead of invading the nighttime visions of others. As an adult, his choice to remain unknown is thrown into jeopardy when a mysterious blackmailer forces Trace to enlist in the territorial war between nations, threatening to reveal his secret if the demand is not met. With the war now over, Trace believes he can finally go home to his farm and live the simple, unremarkable life he’s always desired. When Anaisa and Trace are thrown together by a royal edict, the sisters find themselves unwittingly tangled in the web of mystery and intrigue that surrounds the blackmailer’s escalating assignments for Trace. Anaisa begins to suspect it may be connected to the plot to replace her family in the noble court. As the scheme continues to unfold, lives, loves, marriages, and magic will be put to the test to see what forces in the world are strongest.

Hunter's chronicles

This is my first attempt at creative writing so the whole thing is kind of an experiment. If you enjoy it please let me know and I'll endeavour to keep the story going. Any suggestions would also be greatly appreciated. The story is set in a fantasy wrld with quite a dark setting. The main character is what's known as a 'hunter' or a monster hunter. In the fantasy world in which this is based, humanity whilst being the dominant species are among the weakest. It is through a much greater amount of numbers, a higher intelligence and the continued effort of a handle of extremely strong individuals that they are barely managing to stay on top of things. The main character known as 'Vaughn' is someone with a very dark past. Him and roughly 100 other individuals where subjected to something in there younger lives that twisted and mutated them into being superhuman. As a result of this Vaughn along with a fellow superhuman Katia have made it large by putting there's talents to use as 'hunters'. the reason for there success is a mixture of there's super speed/strength, cat like reflexes, imported regenerative abilities and decreased rate of aging. when the story is taking place Vaughn has already reached the age of 104 years old, however still appears to be in his early 20's. however in such a harsh and unforgiving world being superhuman still means you are human and they by no means are the biggest fish in the sea. the story is told from the perspective of an older version of Vaughn recounting the earlier days of his life when his career as a hunter started to pick up. using a mixture of mainly Vaughn's own perspective along with that off other supporting characters, he recounts his adventures, or as he prefers to call them 'repeated suicide attempts.
