I was invited to Inkitt/Galatea.
I will be discontinuing the series here and continuing it on Inkitt.

A dark romance series with an injection of giants, demons, legend and lore. A radicalized re-telling of the purged stories from the biblical hinterlands that echo forward to haunt Earth in 2023 AD. An echo, that may compel a return to the past.

Deep Dive:
The ancient plains. A unique crack in space and time cracked forth a charismatic "man" so amplified in hunger and stature, that the Great Scribes purged his evils from the Great Books. But this would be in vain. Because, centuries later, he would resurface; convincingly normal.

To violently intersect with a modern woman.

Stories of antiquity and stories of modernity interlace as he begins devouring her world. But, these horrors provide vital clues to his erased story --

-- a story that travels down the threads of many lives, leaping across epochs, generations, continents - *and* timelines to horseshoe with the Great Books.

A story she must demystify, in her bid to slay him. But before she can, she must romance him first.

Lest he lustily eat her, too.

But, he *is* charismatic. And not a man; not entirely.

...and he may have greater designs at play.

Author Note:
All art is mine!
Let's graduate from vampires to.. hungry epochal demons -- with complex story canons. This perilous overlap can create rich grounds for supernatural horror, biblical mythos and even dark romance.

Hunter has always been a little different from everyone else. You wouldn’t know it just by looking at him, but those who do know have always looked at him with fear and even disgust. It isn’t his fault. He was born this way… born as a psychic.... more>>

Throughout his life, he’s helped several trans women hatch from their eggs, using his powers to figure out just the right way to push past their denial: his best friend from high school, a college roommate, a rival co-worker… it’s almost become a hobby for him. He isn’t sure what it is about him that attracts eggs or what it is about them that compels him to help.

Into Hunter’s life now comes Mark, a perfectly average kindergarten teacher who has always lived his life dealing with intrusive thoughts, strange mood swings, and inexplicable sudden changes to his habits. When Mark gets kicked out of his home, he ends up taking the first available room that he can find, becoming Hunter’s new roommate and fast friend.

Hunter knows an egg when he sees one, or at least after he’s read their mind. Although Mark’s thoughts are chaotic, they definitely aren't the kind of thoughts that a normal cis man would have, and when Hunter dives deeper into that mind he’ll find out just how right he is about that.

There’s an entire world inside that mind, full of people that his roommate isn’t aware of, and for Hunter, this might just become the ultimate egg hunt. <<less

I’m Alvin Smithson and let me tell you my story.
-----

Alvin grew up on Earth, or at least one shockingly similar to what you’re familiar with. Except for the magic. And Alvin?

Then things got worse when they tested him to see if he had any magic of his own.

Join me, as we get a front-row seat to Alvin being banished from Earth and as he descend into a painful rebirth. He won’t be leaving the planet alone, though. Much to his misfortune, a person going along has decided this is all Alin’s fault and is more than willing to make their displeasure known. So now Alvin only has a limited time to learn about his power in a place actively trying to kill him.

Can Alvin adapt fast enough? Gain the power needed? Or will he be just another life snuffed out in a realm where no one has ever escaped from?

As the kingdom faces a looming threat led by a power-hungry sorcerer, Zevan's abilities begin to surface. He possesses a rare gift: the ability to wield multiple types of magic, each stronger than the last. However, he keeps his powers hidden, preferring to aid Jareth from behind the scenes.

But when Jareth is captured by the enemy sorcerer, Zevan takes it upon himself to save the Prince. He embarks on a perilous journey, gathering a group of skilled allies, including a rogue warrior, a cunning healer, and a wise sorceress.

Rogue Warrior: Stop. I smell death in the air. We need to tread carefully.

Cunning healer: I can manage. I have the three of you as my shield. They will have to kill you three first before they get to me. I’ll not die before you all, you have my word.

The wise sorceress smiled thoughtfully as she stared at Zevan silently.

Zevan: Well, what’s an adventure without a little magical mayhem? Who’s ready to turn a few enemies into frogs?
