Will Zara fight the dangers that await or embrace her true destiny? **EXCERPT** "I... didn't want to be late for work. You seemed busy, so I thought I'd get a head start." Snow raised an eyebrow. "Really? Or is it because last night affected you so much that you couldn't stand being around me?" "Don't flatter yourself, Snow. You didn't affect me at all." He smirked, stepping closer. "Is that so?" His fingers brushed my chin, tilting my face up. My pulse quickened. "We're at work," I snapped, swatting his hand away. "This isn't professional." "You're my wife," he murmured. "You're supposed to obey me at all times." I bit back a retort, a hint of rebellion flaring within. Slowly, I stepped closer, letting my fingers graze his chest. His smirk wavered for a second when his wolf reacted and Snow bit his lips. "Careful, Boss," I purred seductively. "Don't hurt those lips. I'm sure plenty of girls would love to kiss them." Snow leaned down, his lips brushing my ear. "And you? Are you dying for a taste?" Caught off guard, I hesitated, then regained my composure as I looked him in the eyes. "Unlike other girls, I have strong resistance against—" I didn't get a chance to finish when Snow's lips crashed onto mine with a fierce kiss that left me breathless. *************** MATURE CONTENT Participating in the Viral Book Call Contest.

Akio Tanaka, a 12-year-old boy from Japan, leads an ordinary life until an unexpected world war devastates his home. When a bomb from Russia destroys his family right before his eyes, his life is shattered. A Russian agent, witnessing Akio’s loss, takes him under his wing, driven by pity for the innocent victims of war. Akio, filled with grief and rage, swears revenge against the world’s power holders who perpetuate these wars. He trains under the Russian military, growing into a ruthless and feared agent, carrying out covert missions until he succeeds in killing every world leader in a devastating strike. But just as he completes his mission, a tragic turn of fate strikes—his helicopter is shot down, killing him. In his next life, Akio is reincarnated in a world filled with magic and constant warfare. He retains the memories of his past life, including his goal of eliminating those in power. This new world has its own battles—demon lords, factions, and endless conflict—but Akio is focused on what he sees as the root cause of his suffering: the powerful individuals who continue to incite wars. As Akio matures into a young man, he works the land of his adopted family, learning the ways of this new world. However, fate is unkind once again as his village is invaded, and his parents are killed. Filled with sorrow and confusion, Akio questions whether he is cursed. He forms a bond with a new friend at the orphanage who saves him from despair, encouraging him to keep fighting for his own future. At age 7, Akio begins magical training, as children in this world gain magical powers at this age. After witnessing the brutal military training of young soldiers, he and his new friend join a dangerous project meant to train elite soldiers—children who endure extreme, life-threatening tests. Only a handful survive, and Akio is among the survivors, gaining even more control over his abilities. His friendship with those who endured the training together grows into a bond of fierce loyalty, and they become feared generals in the military. However, as the world around him becomes more fractured, and as the influence of the Demon Lord grows, Akio must confront a new challenge: how to navigate his power, the pressure from his allies to dominate the world, and the endless battles that stand in his way. When Akio finally faces the Demon Lord, he kills him easily, but before dying, the Demon Lord reveals a shocking truth: Akio’s destiny is tied to a greater force. Using a mysterious orb, the Demon Lord triggers a powerful event, sending Akio to yet another world. In his new life, Akio is reincarnated as the son of the Demon Lord, destined to inherit the throne. He witnesses his parents’ deaths at the hands of a hero, and he becomes the new Demon Lord, inheriting his parents’ power. But his reign is fraught with challenges, both external and internal. Akio is a reluctant ruler, unwilling to attack humanity, but pressure from his generals and the threat of human invasions push him toward war. Akio struggles to balance his desire for peace with the brutal reality of war, and his identity as the "Demon Lord of Tyranny" takes root. As Akio battles both external enemies and the pressure from within, he faces the ultimate question: Can he break free from the cycle of violence that has defined his existence, or will he fall into the same patterns of power and destruction that have plagued him across worlds?

The prince of Maldonia, Prince Artemis of House Arteides, the bear killer, the slayer of the elves is crowned King when his father Luca King Arteides dies. Aurora is a seer and a powerful witch who has yet to aknowledge her powers, only Artemis knows of it. Lucian Mithandir is in exile recruiting an army to fight Prince Castellan of house Taelin for the throne of Prophis. Artemis wants no parts of this war, but he is very aware whoever wins the war will later turn to Maldonia. Artemis has no clue that a bigger war is coming which will set out kingdoms on fire, Aurora has seen it in her dreams and it's for the Sweet Waters Throne in Maldonia. The end is uncertain but the ways are clearer, who will sit on the throne after the war to end all wars. The Bastard who's been denied his true claim to the Sweet Waters throne with the mighties fleet in the world and King Artemis of Maldonia who has Aurora and dragons breathing fire. ~ Excerpt Scene ~ "Are you ready? A dragon is not a horse my love" Aurora expressed her concerns. "The dragons are ready to be claimed, Your Grace. I think it’s the perfect time for Artodo to take the skies and be claimed. He and the King have great relationship. He just needs to understand the words that’s all. "Torgo explained while looking at both Aurora and Artemis. "I understand the words." Said Artemis. "Incendio for fire and Valar for him to fly. I know some Low Moor too." It seemed Aurora wasn’t easily convinced, "Knowing the language of our ancestors doesn’t mean you can hang on to the dragon and take to the skies, especially since you are not just practicing. You are taking the dragon to the Mines, in clear daylight." "Exactly, that is the only way we can silence Lord Leoric. I cannot let him take advantage of my sister, I have to try…" Visera interrupted. "He’s ready, I can see it in his eyes." She said with a smirk. Aurora ordered Torgo. "Bring him outside," in Low Moor. Torgo nodded and walked inside the darkened cave with a fire torch. All five dragons were inside the cave perfectly chained. He went after Artodo, the biggest of them all. The black beast, standing at forty feet from head to tail with a wingspan of twenty feet. A terrifying beast to even stare at. Artemis took two deep breaths. "According to my ancestors history, the youngest dragon rider to ever took the skies was ten years old. You’ll be fine." Aurora teased Artemis after she noticed how nervous he was. The dragon keepers placed a saddle on Artodo’s back and two strong handles made of iron and wood for Artemis to hang on to. Then, finally Aurora walked to Artodo — the black beast. She pulled in Artemis and they both touched the dragon’s right eye, soothing him before the take off. "This is your rider now Artodo, you are to obey him from this day forward to the last, as your mother commands." Aurora said this is Low Moor while the dragon hissed slowly. The dragon hissed and Aurora took it a sign that Artodo understood him. She took a step back and let Artemis take over. These two weren’t strangers to one another. Artemis’s touch wasn’t strange to Artodo and he silently lowered his left wingspan for Artemis to climb up. Carefully and slowly, Artemis mounted the black beast. It was no secret that he was scared. When he was on top of the dragon, Artemis smiled looking down and he suddenly exclaimed. "You all look like tiny bees from up here!" Aurora, Visera, Torgo and the dragon keepers laughed. Aurora walked to him and they looked at each other. Their dream finally came true; "Promise me, you’ll come back alive." Said Aurora. "I promise." "And that you will not burn the Mines to the ground. If she disagrees with you, perhaps it’s time to let her go." This was what Artemis truly needed to hear so he may stop his obsession with saving his sister. When he was ready, he shouted to Artodo. "Valar Artodo," and right there the dragon’s feet pounded the ground heavy as it prepared for takeoff.
