Arranged
Arranged Kicking my heels against the stallion’s flanks, I swept through the city gates at a fast gallop. Guards shouted a welcome and I could almost feel the jumping pulse of the crowd as the news of my return was passed on from soldier to soldier and house to house. The combination of excitement and gratitude in seeing me alive and well was something I also felt when I saw them. Shouts of, “The Prince has returned!” followed in my wake. When I entered the estate I resided at while monitoring the borderlands, my manservant appeared and helped me out …

Kelsey’s Top 10 List of “Things a Girl Should Know About Dating a Tiger”
Kelsey’s Top 10 List of “Things a Girl Should Know About Dating a Tiger” The first thing you need to know is that tigers eat and they eat a lot so keep a backpack full of things they can snack on especially if the Golden Fruit isn’t available. Some favorites include: fried chicken bones, and all, giant sandwiches, and double chocolate chip peanut butter cookies. In fact, keeping a jar of peanut butter handy is always a good thing; just make sure you have a container of hand wipes. Whatever the tiger may say to convince you, don’t let …
Rising Generation-The Original Ending to Tiger’s Destiny
Rising Generation Wearily, I rubbed my eyes and fluffed the pillow behind my head. I heard Ren’s warm voice as he crooned to our newborn son in the next room. He was speaking to him softly in Hindi and though I still hadn’t mastered the language, I recognized the name Ren called our son—mera raja beta—which meant, my son the prince. I smiled and closed my eyes as I listened to him. The baby loved to hear Ren’s voice as much as I did and always watched his father with wide eyes when he read stories or poems. Ren …
Pirates-A Deleted Chapter from Tiger’s Voyage (Chapter 18)
Chapter 18 Pirates He stood on the bow of his ship staring at the moon. His frame trembled and his teeth gnashed. Off the stern, the city lights of Mahabalipuram twinkled. He sneered and spat over the side of the boat. It had been easy enough to figure out that the Deschen had docked there. Do the tigers really think that I am that old? So feeble-minded that I would forget the name of their mother? No. They were just stupid. Weak. Like their father had been. Rajaram had run away rather than face him. He’d hid his family in …

Hunches-A Deleted Chapter from Tiger’s Voyage (Chapter 12)
Chapter 12 Hunches He sat back in his chair and fingered the amulet that lay against his chest thoughtfully. It had been a wise decision to place cameras in all the temples of Durga. He’d never actually thought it would pay off, but he was a man who took no risks, and left no stone unturned, especially since there was very little else to go on. It had taken him several weeks and dozens of researchers to figure out the weapons he’d seen were all weapons used by Durga and even after he knew, the information didn’t help much. He’d …
