she stared in awe at a water fountain that sat within the centre of the Volterra airport two Greek like statues, one man and one woman embracing one another.
"Ciao!" A woman called out, waving her hand in front of the brunette before asking "are you.... Estelle Campbell?"
Estelle snapped out of her trance from the statues before she looked at the woman, she was pretty with long raven black hair and striking blue eyes she looked to be in her mid thirties.
"Sì that's me" The brunette nodded sending the woman a small smile "your Camille right? My guide?"
Camille hummed taking two of Estelle's luggage before waking away, the brunette quickly followed the woman outside of the airport where a white convertible was parked outside.
"I have seen your art and I must say..... magnifico! The way you work your hand, how you put your emotions into the uh..... your piece is incredibile!" Camille praised
Estelle who blushed slightly not used to getting such attention just because of her art "Grazie" she thanked turning her attention to the gorgeous scenery outside of the window.
This was her home now, Volterra. She wanted to get away from her last life in Forks to get rid of her broken heart.....
Estelle could only hope that it was a good decision to be here.
The moment Estelle stepped foot into her apartment complex she was in awe, the white floorboards and walls made the room lighter, but what shocked her was the statues standing within the room, one she recognised being Aphrodite the goddess of love
One of the doors within the complex lead the the bathroom which practically screamed for her to have a bath but she shook that feeling away immediately heading to the other room which so happens to be the studio where she will be working during her course.

Lastly she found the bedroom which was on the second floor of the studio, the room itself made her drop her belongings she felt as if she was in Ancient Greek or perhaps a Disney film.....
"All this...." Estelle choked trailing her fingers across the silky duvet that covered her bed "just because I got accepted" she then glanced at the art work on the walls knowing that somehow had painted that.
Soon she began to unpack her belongings, placing her clothes, lingerie and skin care in her drawers, whilst toiletries and sanitary items were placed in the bathroom. Lastly she was in her art studio we're she nearly placed blank canvas's against the walls, along her paints and brushes sat on the shelves, her laptop, pencils and sketch book on the table.
Feeling a small amount of inspiration she immediately set up one of the Blanc canvas's taking a couple deep coloured paints she had collected
from Forks art shop, as well as her can of brushes.
Taking a deep breathe, Estelle closed her eyes as memories of her life in Forks flashed through her very eyes, going to school, making friends...... Edward.
She remembered clearly how he was holding Isabella Swan, how the two showered one another with kisses their eyes filled with longing whilst Estelle remembered watching them with a look of betrayal and sadness.
She didn't even realise she had began to paint the Blanc canvas, nor of the idea of what colours she had used. All Estelle could feel of at that moment was the pain in her heart, her heart that had been broken into a million pieces
"Oh mio! tale emozione, questo pezzo d'arte è semplicemente magnifico" oh my! such emotion, this piece of art is simply magnificent. Camille's voice snapped Estelle from her trance

The brunette then glanced up at her painting a gasp escaped her lips as she stared at the once blanc portrait which now displayed a woman walking away from a man in a dead meadow.....
A meadow, she couldn't help but scoff remembering that the gorgeous meadow she had found, where Edward had betrayed her with none other than Isabella Swan
"You are a wonderful artist" Camille gushed now standing in front of the young girl with a wide smile, Estelle could only smile back forcefully.
"Grazie signorina" the brunette thanked looking anywhere but at the artwork she had just created she asked "would you like a cup of tea? Or perhaps coffee?"
Camille shook her head the two walking out of the studio and into the living room, Camille sat herself on the sofa whilst Estelle stayed stood up staring at the older woman in confusion
"I have came to ask you to find and see Volterra on your own little one" Camille stated Estelle was about to deny the woman's demands only to be stopped "plus you don't expect to get your paints just by staying in your dorm all day do you?"
Actually Estelle did plan on doing so, since the break up she wanted to be left alone, to surround herself in a room full of melancholy and depression yet Camille was right since the school does not offer them any paint she needed to get her own one way or another not to mention.....
"Your right...." Estelle replied softly sitting on the chair opposite from where the older woman was sitting "I need to familiarise myself with my new home and perhaps I will get inspiration as well"
Camille suddenly stood up her eyes filled with hope "Oh! I just came up with something magnificent!" She exclaimed kneeling down she brought Estelle's hands into her own
"You should paint on the streets of Volterra!"
In the Castle of Volterra, the three kings were sat within the library two of which were reading either a novel or ancient scrolls and texts whilst the other merely sat in the corner of the room bored.
"Has there been any news from the Olympic Coven?" One of the men spoke his wine red eyes looked up from the scroll he was reading off of "I have meant to contact Carlisle but never had the time to do so"
The blonde male who sat alone scoffed his eyes sharpened into a glare "those Cullens irritate me more and more! They are weak from the blood of animals it sickens me!"
The third male merely stayed silent a frown planted on his lips, his black eyes almost like a hole full of sadness,
He looked down at his left hand to his ring finger seeing the red string from before that was loose had slightly tightened around his finger along with his brothers
Their mate was close..... but how close was she?

Path of the Ancients
When humans with the ability to control the fundamental particles of the universe with their minds were first discovered, the age of space travel began in earnest. Relativistic travel faster than the speed of light became possible and humanity moved out into the stars. When it was discovered that these Mages could be turned into effective weapons, humanity turned back to its oldest pastime of war. Hundreds of years later as humanity was on the brink of self-destruction, with its taste for war finally beginning to wane, a new organization was created. The Conclave was formed to regulate all Mage’s within the human colonies. While the colonies maintained their independence, the Conclave’s control over access to interstellar travel made them the de facto power amongst humanity. As the old saying goes, ‘Power Corrupts’, and many people were unhappy with the way the Conclave had been leveraging its authority, not the least of which were the Mages they controlled. One unregistered illegal Mage by the name of Tyrial had made it his life's mission to dismantle the Conclave at any cost. After spending decades working towards his goals alone, he realized he would need the aid of willing allies in his crusade. Tyrial would need all the help he could get learning to work with others, dealing with his own dark past, and handling unfamiliar feelings of romantic interest. Content Warning Note: They are there to cover my behind. I honestly hesitated to put them there at all but I figured better safe than sorry. Gore in particular barely applies and the sexual content amounts to light Cinemax style at best. But, at least now you can’t say I didn’t warn you.

I was just like everyone else. At least, I thought so. Everyone grew up in a mansion with servants, trained to be a debutante, had a traveling archeologist for a father, and gave it all up to do whatever the hell they wanted. Right? Well that’s what I did. I was happy. As happy as a single twenty four year old girl can be living in an apartment selling shit online to pay the bills. Not actual shit, that's gross. No, I bought stuff from garage sales, thrift stores, and junk shops, and resold it in my online store. I was pretty good at finding stuff to peddle to my customers. I made rent every month and didn’t have to strip. I’m a bit too chunky to swing around a pole anyway. Life was great! Until two sexy men broke into my apartment and woke me up from the most erotic dream my sexually depraved mind could come up with. One was between my legs, the other was... Oh well, it was a dream and I didn’t even get to finish it. Those bastards! Now I’m supposed to believe my dead father wasn’t an archeologist, but some kind of paranormal agent working for a secret organization called The Guard. My ability to find items for my customers is just a perk inherited from him. And I’m supposed to use my inherited powers to save the world. All while these hunks of man flesh guard me from other paranormals out to get whatever the hell they think I have. A certain body part is dripping with excitement, literally. But my mind is saying “Hell No!”

Divine Intervention Online
Vin is an ex-slave who wields sacred knowledge to demand freedom for his people. Seth is a reluctant player stuck in a game that is set to last 200 more years. When their paths converge, even the false gods will take notice. * * * Hello and thank you for giving Divine Intervention Online a chance. This is not my first book (that honor belongs to The Flock by Chris Sauter- available on Amazon). This is hopefully going to become my second book, the first of a planned LITRPG trilogy. This is a labor of love, dedicated to my absolute obsession with the LITRPG genre that has held me in its grasp for over 3 years. There will be dark situations that perhaps only adults should read including: slavery, violence and the results of war. There will be no harems, little profanity, but possibly some triggers for people who don’t like torture, violence, and other dark stuff.
