Duke Barlow and His Jade Queen

Duke Barlow and His Jade Queen

[Book 1 of Series Love and Empires] #Blurb version 1 “You wanted a serious marriage with me, that's what you said. And now you’re trying to secretly meet your brother,” Vance said, pushing Liquorice onto the bed. At that moment, their eyes met. Liquorice could see dangerous gold sparks radiating strongly from his usually harmless black eyes. And she can smell the scent of the forest after the rain, that was Vance’s pheromone. “Yes. I tried, but what you did was push me away. Vance, our marriage is only political, you said so,” Liquorice replied firmly. “Are you angry with me about it?” Vance took his duchess’s hand and placed a kiss on her beautiful hand. His voice was as seductive as the sing of the fairy Anastasia. However, this time, Liquorice wouldn’t be weak, “This is a political marriage, I have no reason to be angry.” “Then why do you keep saving me, over and over again?” Vance looked into his duchess’s emerald eyes, unable to hide his confident smile. Liquorice pulled her hand away from him, “I did it for my own benefit.” Vance leaned close to her ear and whispered, “You know you can’t fool me with such a fragile lie. Sweet Root, don’t go anywhere and stay with your husband tonight.” #Blurb version 2 "Enter Jadeherb and destroy it from within, this is your mission," Duke Truman told her. "My dear little sister, go into Jadeherb and bring me valuable information to awaken the mystical dragon. When I become the king of the seven empires, no one will be able to harm you," her brother told her. "My duchess, my Sweet Root, come to me, I will protect you," her husband Duke Barlow told her. For centuries, there were no kings, only 7 dukes ruling their empires, and the Council regulated power. This was how the world worked. In the Council, the no-end war between the Reds and the Blues was obvious. However, an unexpected political marriage took place. The groom was Vance II Barlow, the Duke of Jadeherb, representing the Blues. The bride was Liquorice Ryland, whose godfather was the duke representing the Reds, Klay Truman. The council informed the people that this marriage was a handshake of friendship between the Reds and the Blues, ushering in a new era of peace, but Liquorice did not believe it. Because she had been trained to be a spy for the past year. Liquorice understood that she was just a small pawn on the chessboard of men. Who will Liquorice choose? What will be the end of the battle between the Reds and the Blues? Are there any other plots going on?

Max

Max

Max is a young Hunter. He trusts no one, except himself. He loves no one. He does not dare to allow himself to feel safe. Not when his enemies are still out there. Not when he knows that friends and family are illusions one uses to make oneself feel less alone. When he knows that family is so easily broken. He doesn't need any of it. Doesn't deserve it...... He was cut free from the binds of slavery in Jones' pack, but now...he has to find a way to survive on his own. Even, if he deserves to die, he'll go down fighting. "I'd rather be a son-of-a-bitch than a victim, any day." -Max This is a story about a werewolf named Max. Follow his story as he tries to navigate life through the city, where peril can lurk anywhere for someone without a pack..... Max isn't the person who others are envious of his life. His life is hard and he loses just as much as he wins. He's strong, stronger than many others, but he's alone. He can't always compete against those that have the upper hand in numbers, unless those numbers are low. So, if you're looking for a book that had an over-powered character that is going to rack up the beauties and kick ass and take names, this is probably not the story for you. I don't usually write novels for people to feel good reading, there is give and take. Happiness is met with lots of trials and lots of sadness and hardship. Max made his first appearance in Tyler's series. This is a continuation of Max's story, though it's a few years after Tyler's took place. There are some things that are not explained in it, those things will be explained in Tyler's series' next volume.

I don't think they are real. Old hospitals like Barlow Hospital have a lot of history and mystery associated with them. The stories might have started as a way to pass the time or to add an element of excitement. Also, the creaky floors, old equipment, and dimly lit corridors can make people imagine things that aren't really there.
