Mother Knows Best
Miteras observed me carefully, placing her hand on mine, she ran her thumb over my knuckles. I loved it every time she did that, it always made me feel safe and protected.
Quest for Heartfire
Sayeh, Artemis’ beloved Dragon, is on the cusp of life and death after losing her heartfire in the battle against the Titan Ourea. Now, Artemis is on a Quest to find and bring Sayeh’s heartfire back to her.
Quest for Heartfire: The Beginning
There is an island, long thought lost, and in the center of that island is a mountain. That mountain is the end of the spindle around which the fire of this world was spun from the void.
Dragon Stone
I could feel pain radiating from Sayeh, such a bone-deep pain that I felt like I was being crushed under the weight of it. I hoped Artemis wasn’t able to feel this.
Into the Deep: Love on the High Seas
I paused upon my approach and watched as Artemis leaned against the railing, looking down at the water below. The sun streaked through her windblown hair as her face lit up.
Into The Deep: The Trip
I landed hard on my knees, my snakes hissing and striking at the air in a frenzy as I went down. I screamed in frustration, stood, and pushed my way through the remaining passengers.
Into The Deep: Fateful Voyage
I faced myself in the mirror and smiled. I knew the cause of this spring of my heart. I was a hopeless romantic and knew it was the King of Dreams that had lit that fire.
Into The Deep: Dolbriand Haven
The pack grunted and clicked their tongues as they circled Medusa and me. At first glance, they seemed like a wolf pack, but on closer inspection, their form was significantly larger than the wolves seen in the wild.
Into The Deep: Island in the Sun
The teeth snapped again, and I raised my foot, giving him a swift kick just below his jaw, connecting with a dull thud against his thick hide. He reeled back on his haunches, grabbing my foot between his front paws.
Into The Deep: Flotsam and Jetsam, Part I
“I fear the mortals have met with untimely ends.” I cupped Selene’s elbow in my hand, gently guiding her down to the wet shoreline where the footing was firm. “I do not look forward to the red tide that will wash these shores later.”
Into the Deep: Flotsam and Jetsam, Part II
“So tag and bag, or should we just kill them? Because honestly, I am good either way.”
Into The Deep: Pursuit
Whatever they had done dulled my control of my immortal powers. Nothing came when I called. That piqued a new terror. Alone. Powerless. Helpless. Was this what it was to be mortal?
Into The Deep: Sacrifice
Dark sigils shimmered on my body. Painted in liquid the color of mortals’ blood, the red contrasting vividly against my pale skin.
Into The Deep: Lost and Found, Part I
I strained, seeking the barest shift in the fabric of the Dream that would indicate that she heard me. But nothing moved. So, I said her name again, louder this time, and was rewarded with more stillness. Panic climbed my spine. As it did, the Darkness stirred again, rolling over, muttering words to twist me.
Into The Deep: Lost and Found, Part II
I grew until I loomed over the villagers like the mountain behind us, my eyes glowing and seething like its volcanic heart. The shadows roiled around me, their matte darkness contrasting the bright sheen of my obsidian skin. A necklace of pale claws fanned around my neck like violent petals, still tipped with blood.
Into The Deep: The Ever-Living Fire, Part I
No! I cannot put you all in danger. Look at what they have done to poor Persephone. This is my Quest. Selene and I will find a way to get the information from the villagers.
