“What time’s it?” I muttered, rubbing my face and staring at a generic hotel wall.
The answer I received was a light snore against the back of my head.
I stretched, arching and groaning with the motion.
The man behind me stirred slightly. He rumbled an incoherent word, his voice heavy with sleep as his head fell off mine onto the pillow beneath us.
I rolled under the thin blanket, his warmth more than enough to keep me toasty through the night. He grumbled and stretched his naked body against my equally bare flesh. When I stopped turning, I came nose to nose with him.
And froze.
My breath caught inside my chest. Horror filled me in an instant, my stomach clutching. I squealed as I peered into striking, navy blue eyes.
Black—black!—fucking curls dangled in sexy disarray around his face.
A very recognizable face.
Another damn face I had known in 2035.
This was bad.
One thought. My only thought.
He’s going to kill me.
I stared into the eyes of Elder Merrick.

King Hall
Scarlett Dawn
A fresh, meaty, sink-your-teeth-in-and-hold-on-tight new adult fantasy series kicks off with King Hall…
King Hall — where the Mysticals go to learn their craft, get their degrees, and transition into adulthood. And where four new Rulers will rise and meet their destinies.
Lily Ruckler is adept at one thing: survival. Born a Mystical hybrid, her mere existence is forbidden, but her nightmare is only about to start. Fluke, happenstance, and a deep personal loss finds Lily deeply entrenched with those who would destroy her simply for existing — The Mystical Kings. Being named future Queen of the Shifters shoves Lily into the spotlight, making her one of the most visible Mysticals in the world. But with risk comes a certain solace — her burgeoning friendships with the other three Rulers: a wicked Vampire, a wild-child Mage, and a playboy Elemental. Backed by their faith and trust, Lily begins to relax into her new life.
Then chaos erupts as the fragile peace between Commoners and Mysticals is broken, and suddenly Lily realises the greatest threat was never from within, and her fear takes on a new name: the Revolution.
Chosen Thief
Scarlett Dawn
The second saga in the bestselling, groundbreaking Forever Evermore series begins with Chosen Thief, where the life of a skilled lawbreaker becomes much more than she ever wanted…
Caroline Jules knows death is imminent. She’s only 22, but as an inmate of Death Row in the most secure Mystical jail, what else could her future hold?
Caro has no idea. Her solitary, transient life is about to get flipped on its head when it is revealed that she is the new Prodigy Elemental, and she has responsibilities and ties that she can’t ever escape. Caro is attempting to run from a brutal past, but the Rulers have other plans for this thief’s future.
But the transition from a self-contained existence to life with the other Prodigies, the Kings and Queens, and even the Elders was never going to be easy, and Caro has secrets she’s loath to share. Suddenly she has friends, mentors, lovers — and they all want to know more about her than she is willing to reveal.
Will Caro ever escape the darkness of all she is, or will she fall deeper into the life that has been chosen for her?
