"Revenge is best served cold."
Imagine waking up from a long nap only to realize that the world is nearly six years ahead of you. That's exactly how Neha felt went she gained consciousness from her coma only to realize that her husband was no longer her husband. The love of her life moved one without her...coming to terms that he had a family of his own while she no longer had her round belly. Neha was hell bent on getting what she deserved.

"Neha baby. We love you so much, please wake up baba." The woman said before she headed off her to work. It took her a long time to grasp that her daughter was in a coma and would most likely never wake up. But as a mother, she refused to let her daughter go.
As she was walking out the room a faint hoarse voice called out, "M-mama?"
Never had the lady spun around so fast to see her daughter struggling to move. For a few seconds but what felt like hours, it dawned to the woman that her daughter need medical attention because she had woken from a coma after five years.
"Beti. Calm down. I'm going to get the doctors. " Her father said finally snapping out of his shock. His pale and weak daughter however was determined to sit up.
"Mo-" Neha stopped mid sentence coughing.
After getting some water and getting checked out by the doctors, there was only one thought running through Neha's mind.
Where was Kabir?
She couldn't remember how she ended up in the hospital yet the name Kabir was so important to her and she had no idea why. She had no face to place that name to.
"Kya hai Kabir? [Where is Kabir?] Why isn't anyone telling me anything? "

Her parents couldn't meet her eyes.
That's when her heart dropped. Silent tears emerged from her eyes before a wave of dizziness hit her.
Why was her body reacting so bad to her parents' reaction?
Neha truly had no idea.
Suddenly the machine around her started to beep faster as she clutched the side of her bed rails. Within minutes, the doctors rushed into her room and that was all she remembered before everything turned to darkness.

The Stormcrow Cycle
Once a powerful and lauded witch, Ba'an salu-Ba'an now lives alone in a cave in the desert, waiting to die. When she rescues an outlander from certain death she becomes embroiled in a deadly game of politics and empire, of heart and soul, but worst of all--of hope and love and a chance at a peaceful future. Can a disgraced witch find a reason to live her life again--and if so, what price must she pay? The Stormcrow Cycle is a trilogy comprising of The Exile, The Lion, and Abomination. Tags or genres for each book: The Exile: romance, slice-of-life The Lion: romance, slice-of-life, politics Abomination: tragedy, high/epic fantasy (aka "Everything is on fire!") Updates once a week whenever I have time. Cross-posted on Wattpad and Scribble Hub. The CBMokedi cover will return! Excerpt: She looked down at him again. Young. Healthy, from what she could see, except for the wound that was killing him. He was handsome in a way that suggested a life of wealth and plenty. She did not think he had ever starved. Someone important. Her shadow fell across him, and he frowned. Blearily, he opened his eyes. They were amber and bright, even as he lay dying in the dirt. She could feel his soul, blazing inside of him like a fire refusing to die even as his body began to fail. He met her gaze, eyes widening in what she guessed was surprise—or shock. But he never looked away, staring up at her as though transfixed. Ba’an made her decision. She raised her hand and covered his eyes. In another moment, a murder of crows cawed as they took wing. The man and woman were gone from the road, leaving only the dead staring up into the sky. Note: This is a high-fantasy set in a low-magic world. The first book is largely character-driven and we really only hit the real plot in Book II, so if you're not fond of long epic yarns you ought to skip this one. I also don't include trigger warnings, but mind the "traumatizing content" tag--all societies minus one practice slavery and the world is indeed, rather grim!

A girl in her early 20s stood in front of the camera. She had a healthy bronze tan, an oval face, and a celestial nose. Warm brown eyes, minor makeup made them look cat-like - with the outer corners pointed like a cat’s. Short brown hair, styled in a casual boyish hairstyle. She carefully put on a well-worn but high-quality headset SkyTech - Ghost Seeker Limited Edition. Somewhere on it, there was an inscription, "Stream for us, your fans and friends!", which was beginning to fade in places.

8 186I Need To Exchange My Demon, Please
Marcus narrowed his eyes at her and brought a hand up, tangling his hand in her hair and tugging on it so she was looking up at him. "You're asking for it, Mila. I could have you moaning my name and begging for more in seconds," he said, squeezing her ass and rubbing himself against her. Mila inhaled sharply and let out an involuntary whimper, craving to be closer to him, with nothing in the way."You're all talk," she said breathlessly. "All talk, no action. You talk too much," she said, looking up at him with darkened eyes. "I'll believe it when I see it."Marcus growled, planting another hard kiss on her lips, pinning her to the wall with his body as his hands slid down lower on her ass, fingers curling around her inner thighs and getting dangerously close to where she was already wet for him. "You're going to eat those words, Mila," he said against her lips, pushing off the wall and carrying her towards the bedroom. "You're going to eat them while I fuck you so good you scream my name."Mila is desperate for money. So desperate she is willing to do anything to get it and has tried most things. She reaches the end of hope that she will get the the necessary amount in time to take care of the person who needs it, until she remembers her life insurance. The life insurance she gets through her work could cover everything, the only issue being it requires her death and a suicide-clause means she can't do it herself. Desperate enough to sacrifice her life, she finds hiring someone to do it too expensive and one night while drunk, she turns to her superstitious roots and tries to summon a demon to do the deed for her. Several failed attempts later, she's surprised to discover it actually worked, and a surprisingly attractive demon named Marcus is standing in her living room, refusing to accept her request and sparking a lot of feelings she wasn't expecting to have for a demon from hell.this book comes down Nov 1st, then only on patreon
