Breaking Jade

2014

Skyfall, the only city that King Silas spared when he started the Fallocaust. It is a safe haven from the radiation, and a place where there is plant life, electricity, protection; things never seen or felt in the lawless, savage greywastes. In Skyfall lives a teenager named Jade, born and raised in the 'slum district' Moros by an insane mother. He steals and cheats in any way he can to keep him and his boyfriend alive for another winter, all while longing for a better life, some place warm beyond the slums. Then a chance encounter brings Jade into the sights of the most important and most feared chimera in Skyfall, Elish Dekker. A man of statuesque elegance, cold beauty, and a reputation for being the most heartless and cruel chimera in existence. And though Elish may not understand why, he does know one thing for sure... the boy will be his pet. Note: This is a companion book to Book 1 of The Fallocaust Series, it is extremely urged that you read Fallocaust Book 1 before reading Breaking Jade, since this book does contain plot spoilers for the series.

Garden of Spiders Volume 1

2016

When you look at a man’s past, who he is makes sense. Things previously shrouded become clear, and the airs of mystery that once clung so tightly to him, begin to fade away until all that is left is the being he hid like a dark secret. Elish’s beginnings did not start out with a bang, but inside of a peaceful home far from the savage realities of the greywastes. But like all things in the Fallocaust, the peace didn’t last. One can be sheltered from the monsters of the dead world, but you can never escape the demon who hides under the mask of a smiling king. Because in the end, reality is a beast that cares not for the perfect images it shatters, or the world it devours piece by piece. But reality can also strengthen, it can light you on fire, burn you to cinders, and then watch proudly as the phoenix rises from the ashes, stronger than it ever was before. However, underneath each feather there is a scar, and though blood pumps hot through his veins, it is from a heart cold and closed off. But it didn’t start out that way, quite the opposite. And this is his story.

Elish is a veritable slave with no will of his own, and although his siblings and his sengil wish for the old Elish to return, the man in question is adamant that he’s happier this way. Even though Silas treats him like a dog, mental slavery is better than depression and eventual suicide, right? However, it seems that Elish may soon not have a choice. Forces outside of the family are hard at work, and someone from Elish’s distant past is determined to turn him into the man he once was. No matter the consequences.

It's 187 A.F, six years after Sanguine's unexpected arrival, and Elish is mentally preparing himself to ask King Silas to marry him. However, it can be difficult to even get time with Silas considering the damn Beast Island Games are starting soon. Skyfall's first reality show competition that pits convict Skyfaller against convict greywaster is the brainchild of the king and is currently taking Skyfall by storm. Every family member is invested, all except Elish who thinks this 'foolish game' is a mistake that will cost the Crown hundreds of thousands – whereas Silas is confident it's going to make money. A mistake, a complete mistake, but for some reason a certain player has Elish unable to stop watching the competition, unable to stop obsessing over him. Elish doesn’t know why, but he’s not about to let his compulsions control his life… again. And while Elish struggles with his worst enemy - his self control - Sanguine is fighting his own battle. It has been a year since Valentine died and Sanguine's resentment against Silas is strong. But how could it not be? Silas condemned Valen to death knowing how much Sanguine had loved that boy. After everything Silas put him through, the king still let Valen die. However, Silas isn't the only one suffering under Sanguine's hurt, Jack too has been worn down by his boyfriend's grief. It was hard enough when Sanguine temporarily left him to be with Valen, but even after the pink-eyed chimera died, it's clear Valen still has a deep hold on Sanguine. But all of this hurt is soon going to get pushed to the back of Sanguine's mind, because a chance find on Beast Island is about to open a can of worms. Silas is up to something, and with the king distracted trying to stop Elish from ruining those very games, Sanguine intends to find out what it is. Perhaps Sanguine can finally pay Silas back for all the pain he's caused.

Garden of Spiders 2 House of Flies Volume 1 Part 2

2022

Of all the punishments to give, this has to be the most humiliating. Stripped of his title, kicked out of his apartment, and without a cent to his name, Elish Dekker is now homeless. The former Heir of Skyfall and most of his brothers are being forced by King Silas to make their own way, and they won’t be allowed back until they’ve proven that they appreciate everything Silas has done for them. But something is off about Silas’s explanation over how the Crown became bankrupt, and the fact that Silas kept Elish in the dark over Skyfall’s dire financial state, and now refuses to speak to him, hurts Elish more than he cares to admit. The man that Elish wants to one day marry won’t speak to him, yet Sanguine is free to slither around Silas’s apartment like the snake he is. However, Elish is about to have bigger issues, because a series of unfortunate events is going to have him showing up beaten and starved on the doorstep of a certain former greywaster that has already caused the ex-prince an abundance of problems. And while Elish is both recovering and trying to keep his sanity around this new hyperactive roommate, Sanguine is on the warpath. Now confident of the skeletons inside of Silas' closet and still hellbent on punishing the king for Valen’s death, Sanguine is determined to make life miserable for Silas as much as he can. Unfortunately, life is already miserable for Silas, who is deep in one of his depressive episodes. Silas rarely gets out of bed and with most of the family homeless or struggling to deal with a new wave of hostility in Skyfall, the once mighty king has been left to wallow. But Silas will not be wallowing alone, although he’s going to wish he was. With Sanguine’s own caustic resentment destroying him from the inside out, Sanguine is beginning to let his most depraved desires take hold. Determined to break Silas and expose his lies to the family, Sanguine is going to cross lines never before crossed and feed well the demon alter who only wants to see the world burn.
