Chapter 1PREFACE

Humanity is virtuous because of virtues. The various values we uphold to make life worth the struggle, to have meaning and, many other valid reasons. Religion and culture for instance. We believe that upholding these values make us human. Above all, we believe they protect us and guide our every path. The light that lights up our pathways of life as we cruise through.

What no one ever stops to think about is the evolution part. The effects of this evolution, to not only the values but also, the people upholding these values. The human factor in relation to these values. The values might not change, but we humans are prone to change.

A positive change or a negative change. A change that strengthens our values and morals or a change that weakens them. The result of this being from creations of our own making. Creations made to serve the good of humanity and religion but, unfortunately, does exactly the opposite.

These creations disregard religion at the highest of degrees and kill humanity for what it is leaving behind a trail of blood and bodies. Bodies of innocent people. People that are true to the original cause and never much affected by the refinement.

People that value and uphold the virtues and still recognizing refinement for what it is. Suffering and dying for what they believe in. A question comes to mind, are these values not supposed to protect us and light the way?

Well, in the end, the light is appreciated because of darkness and vice versa. After darkness comes light and many other examples we know of. Good and worth results or efforts calls for sacrifices. Even Innocent Jesus had to die on the cross for salvation. His death was for a good cause because he remained true to his values. That makes it a worthy sacrifice. One worth dying to protect and acknowledge.

When the Malaba people held on their morals and virtues, they lived in harmony but, for refinement to walk hand in hand with the virtues, they had a price to pay. In the end, found a way to balance the morals, religion and refinement without cause for drawing innocent blood.

When darkness is in reign, great agony and pain must be experienced for light to shine. Even the dawn is sometimes red before the warm rays of the sun are felt. It is said, blood is thicker, I stand corrected but I tend to disagree. Why? Thin Blood might just have the answer you seek.

Husband With Benefits

Nora is shattered a month before her wedding when she uncovers her fiancé's deceitful affair. As she manages this betrayal, she discovers a deep ploy to hinder her from claiming her rightful inheritance. Devastated but determined, Nora takes a daring step to regain control of her life. Enter Demetri 'The Demon' to those who know him, a formidable man barely known to her, who offers her protection and support in return for a contract marriage to satisfy him. In a twist of fate, Nora marries Demetri to claim her inheritance and fight those who plotted against her. But as she battles her own family and Demetri's many rivals, will she be able to keep from falling for the man known to crush people beneath his booted heel. Excerpt: She had forgotten that the man was intimidating and directly challenged him. Rather than speaking, Demetri rose from his seat and approached her deliberately. Although it was a mere few steps, time seemed to stretch for Nora. When he was almost within touching distance, his hand gently landed on her knee, moving it sideways. His touch moved with a hint of a caress, and he stepped between her open legs. Nora sat there in frozen silence, her eyes wide like a deer caught in headlights. Catching her chin between his fingers, he tilted her face upwards and spoke unhurriedly," You are my wife." She nodded her head slowly in affirmation while his thumb slowly traced her lip. "I have given you time to gather your emotions." Another nod. Nora's nervousness made her lick her lips, acutely aware of his intense gaze fixed upon them. "Your reason for the marriage was to secure your inheritance and get away from under your mother's thumb." "Yes..." Nora whispered in confusion. Her confusion was not about his statement but about the bewildering sensations coursing through her. What was happening with her? "It's time for you to fulfil your end of the contract, yes?" He continued. "Yes," Nora whispered breathlessly. Why was she breathless? Had the oxygen level in the house dropped? Was the air suddenly thinning? Abruptly, his hand left her face, and she watched as he drew closer. It was then that Nora comprehended what was unfolding. All those tantalizing, heart-pounding kisses she had read about in novels were about to possibly become her reality. But the anticipated kiss didn't happen. Instead, he paused near her and commanded, "Kiss me."
