Miley Gordon: A Scarlet Mercy Origin Story: Book 1 of The Scarlet Legacy

by Miley The Butterfly

Before Scarlet Mercy became a name whispered in fear and awe, she was just Miley Gordon - a runaway, broken by loss and betrayal. This short prequel pulls back the curtain on the pain and choices that forged her into the vigilante she would one day become.

At only 5 chapters, this story is a quick, but powerful glimpse into the beginning of The Scarlet Legacy. It can be read in a single sitting, but its impact will echo throughout the series.

Continue her journey in Scarlet Mercy & The A Reckoning and Mercy vs. The Posers.

25 pages, Kindle Edition

About the author

Finally, at 31, I have started doing something with the crazy stories in my mind. This is just the beginning. I am an ADHD-riddled gremlin who never grew up, still loves fantasy and miracles. I am here hoping that maybe someone, at least one person, will be interested in the mess in my mind. From deals with the Devil (Siren of the Damned) to vampire vigilantes (Scarlet Mercy) to an insane crossover between my 2 biggest universes (coming some time later), my mind is filled with epic tales and I hope that you, reading this bio, are interested in what they are and how they come into words and turn into pages.

I welcome you into my mind. I am Miley The Butterfly, and I am aiming to take you to Hell and back unscathed, but possibly slightly traumatized. But those are the best stories, aren't they?
