Dasht E Maat Novels & Stories

Moza navigated each step with extreme caution, while Rezon provided a solid, unwavering support for her weight. Right as Moza’s heel connected with the final step of the grand staircase, the echoing thud of the mansion's massive double main doors swinging open reverberated through the hall. Moza gasped, her eyes widening in immediate horror. Emerging from the threshold was Dastan Limantara. He stood tall and commanding, still clad in his sharp, immaculate corporate suit. Dastan returned home early! The terrifying realization flashed like lightning through Moza’s mind, accompanied by a wave of pure panic.

A golden light poured from my fingertips, enveloping the small life within me. "Shelly!" An Elder's shocked voice came from behind me. "What are you doing? This is blasphemy against the Moon Goddess!"

LIORA'S POV The Mate Lottery is our kingdom’s most sacred tradition. It happens only once a year and every citizen of Verolia who has reached the eligible age is expected to participate, so by the will of the goddess of love, Isolde, everyone will be matched with a loving mate.

His voice came again, causing me to tap my fingers on the mahogany desk, as my mind raced with calculations, I was trying to reconcile my findings at the brothel, with what I had observed the day Xenra visited. "Here!" I pointed at the rough sketch of Maltos' castle, which I had drawn. The rough sketch lay bare on the mahogany desk, and I encircled Maltos' palace with my index finger; it was the home of the Vampire queen. "What really happened in there that night?" I pondered out loud, causing Raymond to lean closer as he took a closer look at the rough sketch, as if he could see some invisible inscription.

My soon-to-be mate had been acting distant for the past days and it didn’t make any sense to me at all. “You are just like your mother, little angel,” My father’s deep voice echoed softly in the room. “You worry a little too much about everything.” “Do I? Alpha Asher would officially be my mate in not less than twenty-four hours and he’s acting as though I don’t even exist. Why am I not supposed to be worried?”

I can feel my wolf whimper, devastated at the thought of our mate rejecting us. "What.." "I said I reject you, Suerinity," he repeated with a straight face. "W-why… how…" I stuttered to get the right words out my mouth. "I don't want you to be my mate," he said firmly. "No.. please don't do this.." "I, Harris Smith, reject you Suerinity Altamera as my mate. I free myself from this unwanted bond, and free myself from you." >>> A knock on the door woke me up, I quickly sat up while catching my breath, desperate to get some air in my lungs. My eyes frantically looked across my room, my ears were ringing and I was sweating.

Maeve Darius Blackthorne leaned against the wide trunk of an ancient oak, his posture as casual as if he’d been waiting for a leisurely stroll, not hunting through the tangled woods at dusk. His formal coat was nowhere in sight. The sleeves of his dark blue shirt had been rolled back to his elbows, revealing muscular forearms crisscrossed with faint, silvered scars. I tightened my grip on the knife and glared. “How did you find me?” Darius’s gaze flicked downward, settling briefly on the blade between us. “You’re standing in my forest.”

I say, my lip curling upwards as I realize the pun I made. Nix chuckles and nudges my shoulder. "That was clever," they laugh under their breath. Fara sighs heavily, tucking her knees up to her chest. "It calms me down," she mumbles. "Well I was hoping to talk to you, but if you're stressed I can come back some other time?" I offer. She shakes her head. "It's fine. What's going on?" "How much do you know about he leopard dæmon?" She frowns, her forehead creasing. "Uh her name is Zahra, my mother went to the clans to get her—"

‘Ssshe began to ssstudy under Thoth immediately, gathering other naive women to ssstudy from him asss well. ‘Ma’at only ssstayed in our Realm for a week before ssshe returned to the Human Realm to rule over their sssubjectsss in what isss now Egypt.

"Elder Moira is fair, and the Alpha pays well. Some of us have been here for years. It's a good place." "It seems like it," Sera said softly. They reached Sera's door, and Rosie hesitated. "Are you okay? You seem... sad." For a moment, Sera considered telling the truth. *I lost my mate six months ago, and it destroyed me. I'm here to seduce your Alpha and ruin everything you love about this place.* Instead, she smiled tiredly. "Just exhausted. It's been a long day." "Get some rest," Rosie said kindly. "Tomorrow comes early. Five AM sharp!"
