Drea POV
I'm Andrea Caldwell, a 33 year old African American black woman that lives in Brooklyn. I'm happily single till COVID-19 hit. Now I'm lonely in Brooklyn while the world is on fire. My mom is in North Carolina being booed up with her husband Tony. We are on the phone now
"Baby, you can get out that loneliness by getting like your momma.
"I'm already a plant mom.
"No. Get you a prison Penpal.
"Nah.
"Why not? I had luck
"Yes finally. You meant a thief, plenty of cheaters and scammers. I don't want to go through wild times like that again.
"Well you don't have to fall in love, just write till the world is right again.
"Hmm, you have a point.
"Okay, babygirl I will talk to you later.
"Love you mom
"Love you too.
I grab my laptop and look up prisoner Penpal site.
I browse through the website and it's crazy. Some inmates have their pictures up like it Tinder or some dating app.
After going through 20 pages, I find a inmate that I wanna write.
Dear Derek Atwell,
I'm Andrea, aka Drea, just a regular chick from Brooklyn. I got your information off of the prison penpal website. Since I'm currently working from home I decided to be a Penpal again cause I love to meet new people and have Penpals. It's been lonely here with just my dog Ringo so hopefully you will respond.
I'm kind of tech savvy but I'm into other nerd stuff like anime, comic books and a show called Doctor who.
I'm a very non-judgmental and cool person so I hope you write back.
Andrea
It's a short letter cause I'm not trying to tell him all my business yet because it doesn't say what he is in jail for. And for all I know it could be from stalking and raping women. I'm not trying to be his next victim if somehow he gets out of prison.

Derek POV
"Mail call! Atwell you have a letter.
"If it's from that bitch, I don't want it.
"It's not.
CO Fitzpatrick hands me the letter.
It's not from anyone I know so I go into my cell and sit on my bed.
It's a letter from Andrea Caldwell. I read it and smile then frown
I get some paper and start writing her back.
Back to Andrea POV
A week later I get a letter from Derek
Hello,
Are you black? If so, I'm D-Rock originally from Philly. I'm in my 30s also with no kids. I'm just waiting to get out of this shitty ass place cause I don't belong even though everyone says that. I'm actually wrongful accused and no I don't wanna talk about it.
So you have a dog. What breed is he? How old is he ? I love dogs and I want some when I get out. I want like one or two huskies.
I'm also a nerd and into anime, comic books and art. I'm big sneaker head which is one thing I'm missing by being in here. Sneakers and being fly is my thing.
Okay, I'm ending it here. Write back if you're a cool black woman.
Derek
Some white must've got him locked up. If only he could've seen GET OUT. I bet if he watches that now he might be triggered.
He seems cool though so I will definitely write him back.
A/n: What do you think about this chapter?
Who do you think plays Derek?
I will give clues throughout the chapters and eventually reveal his face after awhile. This will be probably be a short book.

Saga of Steel and Bone (Ashes & Phoenix)
Can a King rise from the ashes of a broken soul? As a half-breed abomination blamed for the death of his brother, Roland's father disowned him and his pack rejected him. Without a home, only the vilest of overlords accepted him as a slave. His past defined him, his present seemed futile, and his future seemed hopeless. Until he escaped the assassin overlords and came to meet a small family who adopted him as their own. They forced him to look past what he’d come to expect in Humans; forced him to face what he’d become. They showed him a glimpse of happiness for the first time in his life. But tragedy is never far from one running from the past. The Empire steals his first glimpse of peace, putting him on a collision course of past, present, and future that will take him to a small town needing a hero and vast mountains hiding deadly secrets and fire-breathing creatures. It's a race against time to rescue those he loves... before they, too, become more cold bodies laid at the feet of the Emperor. His path will take him on the journey of hero and villain, the lines blurred between right and wrong, his hands stained red with the blood of both the guilty and the innocent. But Roland knows one thing. Those who took his family will pay. He’s coming for them, and Avidon will never be the same. Ashes is clean werewolf fiction with redemptive and psychological elements.
