Hello,
I am currently working on the last few chapters of this book. There will be five to six more chapters including an epilogue. I will also be posting the first two or three chapters of the second book. I still have not come up with a name I like for the second book yet. If any of you amazing readers have suggestions please let me know.
Again I thank all of you for taking this journey with me. This was my first book to get signed and I am very grateful for how well it did. I am shooting for April to release the second book, but who knows it might start being posted before. I want to make sure that it is just as good as this one before I release it.
Again thanks to everyone who read this book and I hope everyone enjoys the other books that will be in the series.
One-Hundred Seventy: Dark Skies Dimitri I woke up this morning with the most ominous feeling that I have ever had. I sit on the edge of my bed. I look over my shoulder, and Imyra isn’t there. She must already be up and making breakfast. We are at our house in our kingdom, but I can’t shake this feeling. I walk downstairs and into the kitchen. I smile as I watch Imyra making breakfast and dancing. I walk up behind her and wrap my arms around her waist. “Good morning,” I whisper in her ear. “Good morning to you too.” She replies. “You have that feeling also don't you?” I ask. “Yeah, we should eat and get to the packhouse.” She says. I know she is right. Shit has been building for the last few weeks. The triplets and Mykayla have all been very irritable, and we can’t figure out why. At first, it was just the three girls, but even Chris’s mood has turned within the last week. We are all waiting for Asmoday, Darrius, and Thomas to make their move and do something.
One-Hundred Seventy-One: Dark Skies Part 2 Asmoday I have been away from my main island now for about a week. I needed to check on my other islands and see what was going on. After the loss of the one island that I had been holding Haze in, I decided that I needed to keep a better eye on the others. I am still pissed that little twat I kept in charge let Haze slip through my fingers. As it turns out, he was killed when the building collapsed. Since then, I re-evaluated everyone I had working for me. I have made several changes and gotten rid of a few that I knew were going to cause me problems. Darrius and Thomas have joined me on this island. The three of us are due to return to the main island tomorrow. “Did your guy give you a time when he might show up?” I ask Darrius. “Not an exact time, but late morning or early afternoon,” Darrius replies. “Has he given any kind of hint about his plan?” I ask. “No, but he did say that we would be very excited with the five to s
One-Hundred Seventy-Two: The Storm Part 1 Chris I knew something was wrong as soon as we arrived in the meeting room. No one else was there. I looked around and then at my sisters, Mykayla, Alexis, Bryn, and Jailynn. I could see the irritation on my sister’s face. The seven of us walked out of the room and down the hall. We ran into Dionysus. He looks surprised to see us here. “Not that I am not happy to see all my nieces and my nephew, but what are you doing here?” Dionysus asked us. “We were sent a message this morning that there was an emergency family meeting called. So here we are.” Bryn states. “No one called an emergency meeting as far as I know.” He replies. I hear an irritated growl, and I know it is from one of my sisters. I can tell Uncle Dionysus here’s it also, and he starts walking faster. It is no secret that for the last few weeks that my sisters have been irritated for some reason. They have been in a mood, and no one has messed with them. Even A
One-Hundred Seventy-Three: The Storm Part 2 Dustin I couldn’t believe that we fell for that stupid rogue attack. I knew something was off when we got to the area where the attack was happening. I kept going after the rogues, but they kept just dodging out of the way. Like the others, when I woke up that morning, I noticed that Mykayla was not there. I found the note she had left letting me know that there had been an emergency family meeting called. I thought that was weird. I know Mykenzie and Kylani would not call a meeting; if I remember right, they were the only two who could call one on such short notice. I got up and dressed all three kids for the day. I talked to Mykayla a few days ago about finding another nanny. Satyira moved to the new packhouse with Draydon. I was walking out of the nursery with my two youngest when Dominick and his partner in crime ran by. “You two get back here.” I heard Reecie yell. I saw them stop and turn around. I don’t think either of
One-Hundred Seventy-Four: Aftermath Kaleb I felt bad keeping the kids away from their mothers. Jordyn really wanted to be with her mother after everything that had happened. The last 24 hours have been rough. When we got back to the packhouse after the bullshit rogue attack, I was pissed. When we realized who had been kidnapped, I became even angrier. They took my daughter, those fucking bastards. When Chris suddenly appeared after the deafening clap of thunder and roar, I knew my goddess knew her child had been taken. I no longer cared if she lost her shit. What transpired over the next few hours will stay with me forever. Chris transported us to that island, and we watched as Mykayla changed in front of our faces. Then my goddess and her sister became one, and the amount of power that was wafting through the air on that island was indescribable. __FLASHBACK__ The wall of water and fire vanished, and the sky was clear. It was like nothing had ever happened. I looked ar
One-Hundred Seventy-Five: Aftermath Part 2 Mykayla It has been a week since the incident on the island. I am finally starting to feel like myself again. I knew I was powerful but I had no idea I was that powerful. I had absolutely no idea that I was the rarest type of phoenix. I was both surprised and in awe at that fact. I have to admit that it is pretty amazing that I am a supernatural creature that was supposed to be a pure myth. All of us are out back by the pool. Mykenzie, Kylani, and I have been spending a lot of time out here in the sun. It seemed to help us recover faster. Everything seemed to be back to normal. Although I can sense a difference in Seth. He has kinda avoided the three of us. He is sitting there watching Mariah, Aiden, Kaycen, Dimitrus, Tiayna, and Mateo. Tiayna and Mateo have gotten so big. Tiayna is the perfect mix of Bryn and Donte. Mateo is a mini Donte all the way. The only difference is that Mateo’s skin tone is a few shades lighter than D
Epilogue Aphrodite Persephone, Athena, Hera, Imyra, and I are sitting here watching everything that is going on in the backyard. Everyone is here, well, except Kaleb and Kylani. They are supposed to get back from their honeymoon tomorrow. It has been six months since everything happened. It took a good two weeks for Mykenzie, Kylani, and Mykayla to fully recover. Poor Mykenzie has been so lost without her sister. Kylani has been gone for two weeks. The last time the two of them were separated this long was when Reecie and Mykenzie were on their honeymoon. Chris has been with Mykenzie since Kylani left, trying to keep her from being so depressed. As much as my three kids fight, they are so close it is scary. They can feel each other’s emotions. They know when each other is sad, happy, angry, and so on. I thought Nymyra might get jealous of how much time Chris and Mykenzie are spending together, but she wasn’t. I think she understands. I have no doubt that Kylani misses M
Ok everyone here is the first two chapters of book number #2. The title is: Hidden by the Gods. I might post a couple more chapters for everyone. I am hoping to have the majority of the book out by the beginning of April. I want to make sure it is as well-received as the last book. Hope everyone likes it. Chapter 1 Vepar “Just look at them sitting there all high and mighty,” I say. “I know. They think they are so special and so important.” My friend says. The two of us were sitting there watching the gods. They were all there drinking, eating, and relaxing as if nothing could touch them. They are so fucking self-absorbed and consider themselves above everyone else. It’s time that someone brought them down a few notches. Now to figure out how to bring them down. I looked at my friend and I knew I couldn’t trust her with the idea brewing in my head. I needed people that thought like me. The twelve main gods had been in power now for 2000 years and in that time they ha
Dominick I am exhausted. I have never been this tired before. Dimitri and I got a vast majority of the leaders of the supernatural beings together and explained what was going on. So far, we had obtained the DNA and blood from all of the known animals in existence, DNA and blood from all of the original vampires, the Fae king himself had given us his DNA and blood, the mermaids had contributed as well, and of course, Dimitri and I had added our DNA and blood into the mix. I sat back and looked at all the other DNA and blood I had gotten over the last week I travelled. This made me realize how many supernatural beings we actually knew. “Are things going well?” Zeus asks. “Dimitri is out traveling to the beings he knows. We know so many and some only know him or me. I just got back last night and he left this morning.” I explain. “I am impressed with everything you two are doing.” He admits. I know when Aphrodite first granted the two of us our wolves, and we vowed always t
Chapter 2 Dominick I knew when I saw Vepar slinking around town that something was up. Dimitri and I had known that she and Asmoday were mates for years now. We honestly didn’t care so we kept our mouths shut. Mates are important to our kind so we weren’t going to ruin their happiness. We often saw the two of them sneaking around to be together. However, the way she was slinking around tonight raised our hackles. We kept in the shadows and watched the shack she went into. It was not long after that we saw Penthesilea, Phlegyas, and some witch at the door. We never did see Asmoday enter, but when we got closer we could hear his voice. We also heard another male voice but we could only see Vepar, Asmoday, Penthesilea, and Phlegyas. We listened as Vepar explained her plan. I looked at Dimitri. We stayed there through their entire meeting and left before they started leaving the shack. “They have got to be out of their minds,” Dimitri says. “I can’t believe that Shade was a
