Olento Research Series Boxed Set: A Paranormal Science Fiction Thriller
Page 70
Adelaide and Rox supervised the task, ensuring that no one was nearby when the bomb detonated. The warehouse had been disassembled so what rose into the air was the rubble of Olento Research. Mika Lenna’s lifework sprinkled into the air in a series of spiraling ashes. It fell back to the earth as he had, a failure. The team Adelaide sent in checked for any peculiarities, but nothing was found. That was because that which they didn’t find when searching Olento Research for evacuation purposes, wouldn’t be found afterward. When something doesn’t want to be found, it has a way of hiding itself.
When the sun set in Los Angeles, and the Lucidites had loaded up, something started to stir under the rubble that would be cleared the next day, once it had cooled. A brick pushed to the side, rolling down a pile of debris. Then a rock rolled away, having been moved by something breaking free, under the surface.
Alexander Drake, who stood in the alleyway across the street, gasped when the hand shot through the rubble and straight into the air, like being born from the wreckage. He covered his mouth, both because the joy was too much and from the disbelief likely to make him cry with excitement. This had always been a possibility, but now it was his reality.
The hand pushed until its arm was visible and then the subject from Project Vampyyri rose from the ashes of Olento Research. The man who was not a man anymore stood staring at the sight around him, before his hunger took him away from the place where he’d been reborn from the Arcturian race.
The End
Stay tuned for the Project Vampyyri Series. Coming in 2018
Acknowledgements
This is my fifth series to write. When I started my first series, the Lucidites, I didn’t start by writing an outline. I didn’t start with the prologue or even the first chapter. The very first words I ever wrote were the acknowledgements. I knew then, and still know, that it is through gratitude that we go anywhere. And I know that I wouldn’t have the fortune to write books, my life’s dream work, if it wasn’t for so many people. I owe my success to my parents, family, friends, teaches, coaches, authors, and even to the strangers who allow me to study them. Anyway this series is a reminder that I’m grateful to so many.
My first thank you goes to Jeff. I feel especially grateful that we can bounce ideas off of each other. You pushed me to write this series and our discussions made it better. Thank you for the support and encouragement.
Thank you to Colleen for always being my first reader and my dear friend. I love the hell out of you. That is all, for now.
Thank you to all of my awesome friends and supporters. You all inspire me every single day and I really can’t tell you how often you bring a smile to my face.
Thank you to the readers. I read every email and message and I’m always grateful to hear from you.
Thank you to my editor, Christine LePorte. You really caught some blunders on this book. Thanks for always making my books better. One day I’m taking you for a cup of coffee.
Thank you to my cover designer, Andrei Bat. What can I say, you have amazing talent and I’m thoroughly glad you spend it on my projects.
Thank you to my daughter Lydia. I know I didn’t put the wolf on the cover like you so desired, but you must know I love your ideas and use them often. You’re a creative soul and the most important person in my life. You fuel me with great ideas and the energy to keep writing. Thank you, my beautiful muse. I love you!

The Lucidites Series:
Awoken, #1:
Around the world humans are hallucinating after sleepless nights.
In a sterile, underground institute the forecasters keep reporting the same events.
And in the backwoods of Texas, a sixteen-year-old girl is about to be caught up in a fierce, ethereal battle.
Meet Roya Stark. She drowns every night in her dreams, spends her hours reading classic literature to avoid her family’s ridicule, and is prone to premonitions—which are becoming more frequent. And now her dreams are filled with strangers offering to reveal what she has always wanted to know: Who is she? That’s the question that haunts her, and she’s about to find out. But will Roya live to regret learning the truth?

The Reverians Series:
Defects, #1:
In the happy, clean community of Austin Valley, everything appears to be perfect. Seventeen-year-old Em Fuller, however, fears something is askew. Em is one of the new generation of Dream Travelers. For some reason, the gods have not seen fit to gift all of them with their expected special abilities. Em is a Defect—one of the unfortunate Dream Travelers not gifted with a psychic power. Desperate to do whatever it takes to earn her gift, she endures painful daily injections along with commands from her overbearing, loveless father. One of the few bright spots in her life is the return of a friend she had thought dead—but with his return comes the knowledge of a shocking, unforgivable truth. The society Em thought was protecting her has actually been betraying her, but she has no idea how to break away from its authority without hurting everyone she loves.
Rebels, #2
Warriors, #3
Vagabond Circus Series:
Suspended, #1:
When a stranger joins the cast of Vagabond Circus—a circus that is run by Dream Travelers and features real magic—mysterious events start happening. The once orderly grounds of the circus become riddled with hidden threats. And the ringmaster realizes not only are his circus and its magic at risk, but also his very life.
Vagabond Circus caters to the skeptics. Without skeptics, it would close its doors. This is because Vagabond Circus runs for two reasons and only two reasons: first and foremost to provide the lost and lonely Dream Travelers a place to be illustrious. And secondly, to show the nonbelievers that there’s still magic in the world. If they believe, then they care, and if they care, then they don’t destroy. They stop the small abuse that day-by-day breaks down humanity’s spirit. If Vagabond Circus makes one skeptic believe in magic, then they halt the cycle, just a little bit. They allow a little more love into this world. That’s Dr. Dave Raydon’s mission. And that’s why this ringmaster recruits. That’s why he directs. That’s why he puts on a show that makes people question their beliefs. He wants the world to believe in magic once again.

Ren Series:
Ren: The Man Behind the Monster, #1:
Born with the power to control minds, hypnotize others, and read thoughts, Ren Lewis, is certain of one thing: God made a mistake. No one should be born with so much power. A monster awoke in him the same year he received his gifts. At ten years old. A prepubescent boy with the ability to control others might merely abuse his powers, but Ren allowed it to corrupt him. And since he can have and do anything he wants, Ren should be happy. However, his journey teaches him that harboring so much power doesn’t bring happiness, it steals it. Once this realization sets in, Ren makes up his mind to do the one thing that can bring his tortured soul some peace. He must kill the monster. *Note* This book is NA and has strong language, violence and sexual references.

And on the night of a new moon, eleven of those men, possessed by new—and inhuman—powers, break out of their prison and race through the streets of Los Angeles until they disappear one by one into the night.
Olento Research wants its experiments back. Its CEO, Mika Lenna, will tear every city apart until he has his werewolves imprisoned once again. He didn’t undertake a huge risk just to lose his would-be assassins.
However, the Lucidite Institute’s main mission is to save the world from injustices. Now, it’s Adelaide’s job to find these mutated men and protect them and society, and fast. Already around the nation, wolflike men are being spotted. Attacks on innocent women are happening. And then, Adelaide realizes what her next step must be: She has to find the alpha wolf first. Only once she’s located him can she stop whoever is behind this experiment to create wild beasts out of human beings.
