Victor stood outside a building in District 1, looking at the neon sign in disgust. What was referred to as the ‘nightlife’ part of District 1 was a place he did his best to avoid at all costs. The noise and bright lights of this area grated his nerves. He opened his phone again and checked the app that tracked GPS signals. One signal that shouldn’t have been active was coming from within the club.
“Of all the places you could have been, it had to be here,” Victor growled.

The sun was starting to set as Riverbend faded into the distance behind the wagon. Ash had delayed their departure several hours to hunt for the oni within the town. As he should have guessed, they found no clues about him. Even Haylee failed to pick up his scent apart from what was at the tavern.
Ash read over the paper they had taken from the board once more as they moved along the dirt road. He could see Selena staring at him out of the corner of his eye as they sat in the back of th...

I hope everyone had a good weekend!
First: A little unfortunate news. De’Vas book 3 didn’t make it onto the June recording slots, but it should begin recording in July.
Second: Feral Mage Book 2 is done and with the editor right now. I will most likely take down the chapters this Friday and start getting things ready to launch the preorder.
Third: I’ll be focusing on wrapping up or getting close to done with De’Vas book 4 before I start working on Feral Mage Book 3. ...

“That’s a sight for sore eyes,” Bryce said as he saw the mercenary guildhall sign in Witchbrook.
Two days had passed since the Red-Shield Company had attacked Baroness Julia’s towerhouse and the town of Stonewall. The journey to find Thea had been a short one, but Bryce felt more tired than he had after his month-long mission to harass the snow elves, where he first met Callie.
He sat in the back of the wagon with Vex leaning against him as Janna steered. Callie sat across...

Bryce dragged Thea along with him as he looked for the girls in the empty town. He dropped the Pale Queen Aspect, but kept the Primal Troll one active in case he needed to restrain Thea further, or she attempted to take a bite out of him. She had attempted several times to approach dead bodies, both people and gnolls, before Bryce pulled her away with the chain.
His mind still felt hazy about what had happened in his soul this time. He remembered the fight with the monsters, he remember...

Janna threw another fireball at the wooden bridge that crossed the wetland and led from Stonewall to Baroness Julia’s towerhouse. The group of dwarves trying to cross it swore as they retreated from the flames.
Over thirty…
That’s how many dwarven mercenaries she counted trying to cross the bridge to Stonewall to join the ones already here. She saw Vex release an arrow from beside her, but not at the dwarves on the bridge. No, she was firing at the six already on th...

The gnolls clawed at the thick oak door of the temple, bits of wood falling to the ground as they began to work their way inside. Thea could see the monsters’ eyes looking at them through the gaps they created. It wouldn’t be long before they broke through.
Baroness Julia lifted a candelabra as a makeshift weapon, while the Priestess ran through a list of the Divines to pray to for protection. Thea flexed her claws and waited.
“Do you know any combat spells?” Baroness Juli...

“Smoke!” Vex growled.
Bryce’s eyes opened instantly at her words, and he began shaking Janna awake. Vex was already out of bed, quickly dressing. Her tail bristled as she grabbed her bow and quiver. With a whistle from her, Omelet was up and at her side.
“What’s going on?” Janna asked, rubbing the sleep from her eyes.
Bryce frowned at the state Vex was in and pulled on his Manticore Aspect.
“Shit,” he growled.
Smoke, blood, and death…

Cadin gripped the pommel of his sword as he stood guard outside the temple. Night had set in, and the darkness frayed his nerves even more than they already were. He wished he knew what was going on. What had the Baroness so fearful.
“You’re a guard of this town. The people are looking to you,” he told himself, trying to use the words to steel his nerves.
He kept telling himself that he was on sacred ground, the domain of the Divine. This was perhaps the safest place within ...

Bryce and the girls made their way to the tavern just before sundown. Most of the other people they spoke to in the town told the same story as Cadin. A few made wild guesses at what was happening. Everything from Duchess Frozenveil was invading, the Alliance was launching an attack, and one man who reeked of wine claimed Baroness Julia was going to declare independence from the Kingdom of Brook and crown herself the Marsh Queen. Bryce was hoping Bellamy and Callie had better luck than they ...

“There’s nothing here,” Bellamy said as she scented the air once more.
Bryce ran his fingers along the deep grooves cut into the tree Levi had been tied to. Given their depth, he knew that they were made with extremely sharp claws. It confirmed his theory that the dwarf had escaped with Thea’s help.
Why?
He turned and looked at Bellamy. Her eyes were cat-like, and she had two horns sprouting from her head. She didn’t use her Howler Aspect too often, prefer...

Bryce stood in a dark forest, the smell of damp earth and vegetation around him. What little light there was shone on a grizzled man wearing clothing made of animal hides. By his feet was a fifteen-foot-long boneweaver centipede, which appeared dead. The man’s spear lay broken on the ground not far from him, but he held a large stone in his hands, slamming it down repeatedly on the unmoving monster. On the fifth blow, the bone-like exoskeleton that gave the centipede its name crumbled, ...

Bryce read over the description Bellamy had put in the contract of the chimera. Wings, red eyes, and a woman’s figure. No wonder he didn’t recognize the monster. It was a chimera. He was now wondering if that’s why she had stalked him, had some part of Thea recalled Bellamy's introduction of him back in Sentinel.
“What do you mean?” Bellamy asked, her eyes finally meeting his.
It was clear that this reunion had torn open old wounds in both of them. Callie joining them mi...

The serpent leviathan’s body was a swirling mass of muscle and scales within the swamp, turning the water and mud as it pursued her. Bellamy could see the monster’s true size from the air with her Griffin Aspect. The beast’s body was longer than the ship she sailed on with her father from the Selkie Isles to the continent all those years ago.
She also saw Bryce following along on the ground, striking the serpent with his poisonous claws when the opportunity presented ...

Isabelle hummed happily to herself as she entered the Red Lace. The girls had greeted her as soon as she neared the building, updating her on everything from how much they were making to whether any customers were potential trouble. Usually, her girls could take care of most bad customers. They were all pretty flowers, but she made damn sure their thorns were sharp.
By the time she reached her office, they had already split away to handle other matters. Isabelle was glad that little wou...

Bryce awoke to something soft dragging across his chest. His eyes opened and took in the low light of his room in the guild. Janna lay next to him, still nude from last night, with a smile on her face. He watched as her tails ran down his chest, then he put his arm around her and pulled her close to him.
“Bryce!” she giggled as he started kissing along her neck. “We don’t have time for this! Vex will probably barge through the door any second. She let me have the night with you,...

Thea tossed and turned in her bed. She wasn’t sure how late into the night it was, but she knew she had woken several times already. The nightmares were becoming more frequent and more gruesome. The last one was of her dining with the Redpine family. A meal of laughter and joy, only for her to turn into her monster self and start slaughtering them. She felt bile rise in her mouth at the memory of her eating their corpses. Even though it was a dream, she knew what their flesh tasted like.

“I would be lying if I said I wasn’t a little nervous,” Janna stated as she moved to sit on the edge of his bed.
Bryce took one of his potions and made sure the door was locked before taking a seat beside Janna. She leaned against him when he did, and he felt her tails brush against his back.
Bryce put his arm around her, rubbing her shoulder.
“There’s no rush. Hell, if all you want to do tonight is cuddle each other, I’m fine with that,” he said.

“This is so tasty!” Sansa said.
Bryce watched as the white cream ran down from the corner of her mouth, her tongue darting out to lick it up. Her eyes shone as she looked at him, licking her lips.
“Are you ready for me?” another kitsune asked, her five black tails waving with excitement.
Bryce looked past her at the line of girls waiting for their turn and sighed. He only had himself to blame for being in this position.
“Just one second,” he said.

The silver-tailed kitsune led them into the building. As soon as they were through the door, Janna removed her shoes, grabbing a pair of slippers from a rack by the door. Bryce noticed Sansa wore a similar pair, and he followed suit, removing his boots and taking a pair of slippers that looked his size. They left their shoes by the rack as they followed Sansa.
“So, how did you two meet?” Sansa asked, still wearing the smirk as her three silver tails fluttered about.

As soon as Bryce entered the guildhall, he saw Vex and Janna rushing from the door back to the table under which Omelet was licking his plate clean. Given the girls’ hearing, he was willing to bet they had heard his and Bellamy’s entire conversation. He didn’t say anything or even head to their table. Instead, he started walking toward the bar, his nerves still rattled.
Alice, who was behind the bar, looked from the girls’ table to him as he approached.

“Here you go, Omelet,” Alice said as she set the plate on the ground.
A raw steak the size of Bryce’s head sat on top of it, which the griffin chick scrambled toward. Vex sat across the table from him, eating a cooked steak even larger than Omelet’s was. Both steaks were gifts from Mark for their role in taking out the assassins, along with the bronze dog tag that now hung around Vex’s neck.
Bryce watched as the griffin chick inhaled the steak. Only Vex, Alice, and Janna...

The assassin had Callie backed up against a wall, the swordswoman desperately trying to block strikes from the two short swords.
Bryce arrived at her first, his Manticore Aspect making him faster than Isabelle. He swung at the assassin’s neck, hoping to end this fight now. She spun, bringing her short swords up, countering his blade. Only a few strands of blonde hair fell to the floor in the light of the lantern.
The assassin jumped away as Bryce put himself between her and Call...

“This is horrible,” Ash said, his hand gripping the wooden bench he was sitting on.
The wagon hit another bump in the road, and he felt all the bones in his body shake from the impact. Apparently, shock absorbers were not a thing on Vas.
Haylee clung to her bench as well, a grimace on her face from the jolt. She was wearing Vas clothing today, instead of her usual blue jeans and hoodie. Ash thought the forest green tunic looked good on her. Selena sat next to her and seemed mo...

Ash relaxed in the stream, the cool current washing away the sweat and dirt clinging to his body. He lifted his arm and examined it. Fresh burn marks covered them from what he had started thinking of as fusion with Sparky. The results of another failed day of trying to train with the elemental’s power. Four days had passed since he had taken over the castle, and still, he had yet to make headway in using the power without injuring himself.
Nearly a week on Vas.

“This is a brothel,” Callie deadpanned.
Bryce could feel her glaring at him as they arrived at the Red Lace. He had already tried three times to get the snow elf swordswoman to turn back around, but she refused. He said nothing, instead turning his attention to two scantily clad women at the entrance. The catkin waved at him before she turned and entered the establishment. The human woman approached him, her tits on full display.

Callie walked through the tavern door and sighed in relief when she saw Bellamy. When the woman wasn’t at the inn they had booked to stay at, Callie started searching the taverns. That was perhaps two hours ago.
“You’ve been busy,” she said, gesturing to the empty mugs on the table.
“Go away,” Bellamy growled, working on another mug of ale.
Callie glared at her, then pulled out a chair and sat down. She then waved to the bartender.
