VIXEN: "How angry are you, Vixen?" Those are the words Whiskey would speak to me before he hate-fucked me when we started all this. I was abused, but he had it worse--missing-kid-on-the-side-of-a-milk-carton worse. We're both broken, and he's scared he's gonna hurt me, but we're good for each other. I know we are. We can help each other get better. WHISKEY :Vixen's become my entire life, but even she can't save me when things get too dark. That whole love-fucking thing she taught me is slipping away, too. We're heading into Hate-fuck Hell. I don't want to hurt her. But not even the head-shrinker I see for therapy can fix everything that's going on now. Everything I thought I had--everything I knew about myself--is gone. What little I had is taken away from me, and I hate it. There's no hope. I can't even look Vixen in the eyes anymore. As I face the people who hurt me, the world, the press, and their lawyer make me out to be a monster, so I decide I'm just going to have to show them a fucking hellhound. Vixen, the sexy badass that she is, won't accept that and is forcing me to confront my abductors. I need her next to me and to not let me believe I'm this evil thing everyone says I am. It's hard to face the people who made my childhood a living hell as I try to put them away, while the rest of the world judges and hates me. I'm crossed between wanting vengeance and seeking justice, which is pushing Vixen to her limit. All I really want is to clear my name. If that can happen, then maybe Vixen and I will be able to find our way back to Hate-fuck Heaven.TRIGGER WARNING: This book contains material not suitable for all readers and is intended for audiences 18+ This story includes dark subject matter on surviving childhood abduction, alcohol abuse, and parental suicide.READER DISCRETION ADVISED

Life as I know it has been flipped on its tail. And no, I’m not being dramatic. I’ve been living as a human, but now I have to return to my mermaid roots because my dad is the new king of Valora. As soon as we arrive, he sends me to the Dark Sea Academy. Whispers and glares greet me at every turn. Students accuse my dad of killing the previous king, his brother. My first night, the most popular girl tries to kill me. I barely escape, only to run into Bash. He’s older and one wrong move from being expelled. Also as gorgeous as he is arrogant. For some reason, he keeps looking at me with concern in his eyes while giving me a crooked smirk. Almost makes me forget all my problems. But I can’t let myself get side-tracked by him. I won’t.

Over twenty years in the writing, the three books in The Legend of The Secret Saga series evolved to be an fascinating magical story unlike any other, as they poetically weave together a strange epic tale. THE AUTHOR, Estee Shoesmyth, is a tangible figment of her own unbridled paradoxical imagination and the fantasy fiction pseudonym of eclectic American artist, Suzanne T. Dietz. The Legend Of The Secret Saga is the complete epic trilogy in one colorful volume. There is no other story like it in The Real World! The fantastical epic tale opens in Book One, which is When Begin Began. Celestial Scribe, Angel Daria pens the following words: "To Whom It May Concern: When this immense historical accounting commenced, I surely did not anticipate that the nature of this story would ever veer off the straight and narrow path. Instead, it proceeded to travel along the strangest winding ways. And so, I followed it most dutifully — with my pen in hand. Once upon a time, an anonymous philosopher on The Ultimate Earth aptly intellectualized, 'There are always three sides to every story: your side, the other side, and the truth.' The story presented to you here may seem like nothing more than a collection of my own fantastical delusions. Surely, it could not be that which I, myself, have ever witnessed! In that case, it would certainly not make it to be truth. However, it is ... by my best accounting ... the strange but true enough telling of a deliberately long-lost story from somewhere far out on the other side of Who-Knows-Where." That's just the beginning! In Book Two, The Murky Middle, the story dims to very, very dark with the introduction of a terribly wicked magician's sorcery. Through magic, he enters into a spirit world and adamantly decided to stay there. From that secret domain he meets another and the two, in cahoots, do some deliberately evil damage that stretches out from that invisible place right into the unsuspecting folks who live day to day in The Real World. Those folks do not stand a chance to escape being affected by the magician's insidious determination to capture them all. Eventually, Adam and Eve are reincarnated into The Real World on a specific mission, years beyond the peak of that magician's vicious reign. By then, the worse had evidently devolved into the worst that ultimately leads through to Book Three, The End Of The End. This story is utterly fascinating. Its twisting and turning through that which may be somewhat recognizable is more tangled up into the fantastical that is addictive to read onward to find out what happens next. All throughout there is mystery, magic, love, hate, obsessiveness, rejection, maliciousness, brilliance, stupidity, sickness, healing, forgiveness, revenge, romance, weirdness, wonderment, heavy heartedness, humor, life, death, and reincarnation. All along, there is that concept of eternity being a time lasting for Forever. Which, according to all reports in The Real World, Forever is a long, long time. The Legend Of The Secret Saga is the complete epic trilogy in one colorful volume. There is no other story like it in The Real World. Not from When Begin Began, throughout The Murky Middle, and all the way to The End Of The End. It is a story that is a Fairytale and a Fantasy. Magical and Mythical. Poetic and Artistic. The Legend Of The Secret Saga is fantastical and not as expected it might be!
