Shadow Slayers Stories

Ever since the nightmares started, Josephine “Josie” Benson’s life had started spiraling out of control. At night, she couldn’t sleep, and during the day she finds it increasingly more difficult to cling to reality. Nothing in her 25 years of life had prepared her for this moment, and, somehow, no matter who she turned to no one had any concrete answers. No one except for the mysterious stranger. 

Celine Devereaux Buckley, who once lived a mortal, very human life as Josie Benson, thought that coming home would be safe. She would be surrounded by those she loved and who loved her most, but her homecoming was more complicated than she ever imagined. Shortly after arriving, she begins feeling strange. As her physical condition once again worsens, she and her family can’t help but wonder what could be causing her so much pain. 

The cell walls closed around her, and Celine tried not to scream. It wouldn’t matter if she did; no one would be able to hear her. No one would be able to save her now. Trapped within an enchanted cell and hidden from the world, Celine Devereaux Buckley has nothing to do but ponder her fate. She should have been powerful enough to stop him, but when she was at her weakest, Duke Marcus Northcott finally captured her. 

Nearly two months after Celine returned from Alterra, carrying with her the ominous warning from archnemesis Marcus Northcott, she is still trying to determine why returning to her world is the “biggest mistake of her life”. Living through the most peaceful time she’s ever known, Celine struggles to find the meaning behind the threat. That is until her life turns upside down. An unforeseen visit from her adopted mother sends her life and the lives of those around her spiraling. As they struggle to hide the truth, Celine begins to experience strange symptoms. 

Still recovering from the effects of a deadly poison, Celine desperately needs a break. But when her evil cousin arrives in the sleepy town of Bucksville, she realizes their tiny hamlet will never be the same. If it even survives....
