Thirdly

I love how you're calling him The Malik 😂

The Scarlet Moon - Yep. Still loving that name. I'm glad Malik gave those brats a thrashing. Sorta.

Agreed!

When I came too, I felt a pain in my neck and upper back. I couldn't move my feet much, and my arms felt unnaturally held back. When I tried to move them, my wrists rubbed up against the coiled rope. Before my eyes fully focused, someone slapped me. Teeth clenched, I glared at Alonso, trying to bury the raw, stinging ache on my cheek behind defiant anger. "There's mi diablillo," Alonso said. "I was tired of waiting." "Where's Clint?" I asked, fighting to keep my voice steady.

Book 1 of Malik's Adventures is a rollercoaster of triumph, heartbreak, found family, loss, budding love, new friendships, and vengeance!

“Can you create it? Or do you need to be near a source?” - Of course it would be near the source. Would have been too easy otherwise. Drat! Eventually, Shuza finished his drink and quietly went to the bed closest to the exit, and Chihiro, blushing, took the other one. - Shuza knows where it's at. 👀

It was Chihiro, and she did appear to be bathing, wearing nothing but a pair of panties, standing in calf deep water. - 👀 “Verteth!” he hissed at Chihiro. - Uh-oh! That's not good. I imagine this is like a very devout Christian suddenly seeing someone transform into a demonic creature from hell.

Ok, I think this is where I left off in commenting. Let's see: The crew starts traveling together. Malik's twisted dreams twist harder. Rhaelce reassures Malik that Naivres died because the kids broke the cardinal "don't play at night" rule, which doesn't apply to night time funeral pyres because: “That is when The Unspoken hunt for prey.” “But—but the festival and pyre were at night.” “Yes, with fire. To deter them.” Malik and Rhaelce kiss a few times... Instead of training with that staff, if I were Malik, I would have been like:

Yes to all 3.

Getting close to the end on this one.

"My name's Wylie. Thank you for agreeing to meet with me." The man before me was androgynous, blond all over with blue eyes, though neither his eyes nor hair were as pale as Rhys's. He was likely one of Alonso's many exes, which gave me an odd twist of unease in my stomach as I tried not to stare. Rhys had us follow his car to his firm while taking good measures to ensure they weren't being followed. Jace, who'd immediately sat in the passenger seat, hadn't stopped sulking since.

Took me some 15 chaps, but I've finally delivered on the unicorn-vampire/vampire-unicorn. 😂

Exactly. 😂

To be fair, vampires are undead. It's just that King Winter's family line is super-magically-charged fertile. It sometimes skips a generation, or in this case, skipped a sibling.

Chapter 14: A Housewarming “Alright!” Roux cried out telepathically. The twins were racing one another in a Perazan field. “I yield! I yield! You really are the faster galloper.” Iris let out a snort as he slowed down to a trot and walked back over to his brother, who had also stopped racing in the Perazan field. Though his genetics leaned toward the brighter pastels of Unicorns, his brother’s were more of the darker Nightmare hues of deep brown, except for Roux’s bright silver horn. I
