To have the ability to see into people's past has no real appeal for the teenager this story is about, letting him only use it as amusement and to show off when he was drunk. Never look into someone's past beyond a superficial level. Never try to find out more than you should. NEVER. EVER. LOOK. INTO. THE. FUTURE. But everything changed the moment he was forced to look into the future, was forced to investigate the circumstances of a murder, and was forced to make the acquaintance of the victim's twin brother('s fists). The more time passed, the more it appeared that the primary reason for this murder wasn't a local, but a global one. This single, marred corpse was the beginning of a threat that would shake the world. (MC loses a screw when he enters the prison.)

#completed Before the first empire fell, they called her the Goddess of the Hungry Throne. She demanded worship not through prayer or sacrifice-but through flesh. Her priests and priestesses competed to service her between her thighs. Captured warriors became her most devoted slaves. The desperate came from a thousand miles, begging to be devoured. She has never stopped. Now, in a world of glass towers and private jets, Lilith wears the mask of a supermodel and business titan. No one knows her true age. No one knows that beneath the designer dresses lives an entity older than writing-cursed to feed on sexual energy every waking second. She cannot attend a board meeting without someone hidden beneath her desk. She cannot close a deal without a slave's mouth on her. Her victims share one trait: desperation. The lonely billionaire. The sexually frustrated artist. The wife who has never been truly satisfied. Lilith finds their wound and pours herself inside-one night of impossible pleasure, then a lifetime of chains they call devotion. But someone is watching. A journalist researching ancient fertility cults stumbles upon photographs spanning five thousand years-the same woman. Same hunger. Same smile. And as Lilith turns her attention to this new prey, she realizes too late: this one remembers. And remembering is the first step to rebellion. Lilith's Hunger is an erotic horror novel for readers who want their pleasure threaded with terror-and their goddesses utterly, terrifyingly unstoppable. Warning: Contains extreme explicit content, psychological horror, and themes of power exchange.

Will Caleb be able to win her? Join me in this game of seduction and games of the Lore. --- She watched the sun set through the tinted glass, rays blazing over the water, setting it aflame. Elize looked dreamily at the sea and said, "This looks too beautiful to be real."  "No Liz," said Caleb. Elize turned her gaze to meet him, and he was... mesmerized. In a breathy voice, he said, "You are… surreal. Do you know when I saw you for the first time, I thought I had met an angel?"  Her cheeks became pink like the sky outside. A smile tugged her lips up as his sunstruck eyes held her gaze. "When I first saw you, I was done for my life. Your blond hair, those sharp curves— it all acted like a magnet." His heart thudded in its ribcage and his pulse raced. She took a sip of her wine with trembling hands without realizing that it wasn't blood.  "And that instant I knew you were my mate. And that instant I knew that I could die looking at you."  There was so much intensity in his words that Elize's heart raced for this beautiful man. She wanted to go to him and place a kiss on his lips. Her flute shook on its way to her lips. She drained it absentmindedly and her head became dizzy immediately. Caleb came to her side the next instant. He took the glass from her and placed it on the table. Stroking her back softly, he apologized to her for giving her the champagne. She coughed a little and some tears poured out in response when she felt the burn of the wine in the back of her throat. But Caleb had paled so much by that time that she couldn't help giggling. "Since you didn't remember, it is your punishment that you drink the entire bottle of wine and then next."  ---- Book cover by Micehellwd. Copyrights belong to me.
