Have you ever wondered what it's like to be a cardinal sin? To have the power of pure destruction at your fingertips? That is Aeshma's reality, and yet, he finds himself lacking something. What does it mean to wield power? What is the sake of power at all, without ideals behind it? These are the questions Aeshma is forced to confront-- forced to reconcile with-- or perhaps, he will simply raze it all to the ground as his natural inclinations urge him to. #1 Existential 2/27/2025 to 3/3/2025 (somehow, lmao)

𝑾𝒊𝒄𝒌𝒆𝒅 𝑽𝒐𝒘𝒔 ━。゜✿ฺ✿ฺ゜。━ On the day of her wedding Saiomi stands on the brink of perfection. The sounds of wedding chime echoed loudly, her world basking in golden light, but fate had other plans. Her world collapsed into the shadows, a world basked in shadows and fire. Where the devil ruled and claimed her as his. She became entrapped in a world where she didn't belong. Where demons And devils lurked where the unknown resided. Because 𝐇𝐄 said that's where I belong, in his arms, in his home, and in his bed. I became the prey of the devil himself. His next meal, his next fixation. He took me to his world because I was going to become his new bride. His new. 𝐏𝐎𝐒𝐒𝐄𝐒𝐒𝐈𝐎𝐍 She's in his world now there's no going back now but to accept what the devil gives and take. ------ " you think you've seen his darkness? Just wait, little bride"

Light is merciless. It slices through the air, ricochets off surfaces, wedges itself into cracks. White, cold, absolute. It's the beacon that leaves no escape, that makes hiding impossible. Jade West is inside it. The glare devours her, defining her sharp angles. She is made to endure, to transform shadows into backdrops, to seize control of even the faintest nuance of light. But within that pristine theater, where every detail exists by her will, something eludes her. Darkness is everywhere-beyond the stage, behind the spotlights, beneath the skin. The more intense the light, the deeper the shadow infiltrates her success. It's not fear, not insecurity. It's a distant pull, a balance between what she's built and what she doesn't know she wants. What's the right direction to take? Tori Vega is immersed in blackness. Summer tore her apart, leaving fragments of what she once was. The world devoured her effortlessly, chewed her up until she was unrecognizable, and then spat her out, empty and fragile. There's no balance in her steps. Every attempt to move forward fades into the dark, every impulse a silent whisper. Before her, a cold light-white as a knife's blade, distant and unattainable. She doesn't know if it's a guide or a judgment. If she reaches out, she trembles. If she stops, she sinks. She can no longer see the line between fear and resignation. The one who once knew how to shine now watches the light from afar, unable to reclaim it. What happened to her? Yet, within the clear-cut structure of this perfectly orchestrated theater, within the brutal tear between light and dark, something eludes understanding. Because Jade was never the winner, and Tori was never the weakest link. What was once established fades into uncertainty, witnessed by those who watch this spectacle of light and shadow. There's a razor-thin boundary they're about to cross, a precarious balance between the one who illuminates and the one who desperately seeks to see.

Sara Luzio has always known that it is her duty to safeguard humanity from the creatures that lurk in the shadows. But when her clan perishes in the line of duty, Sara is forced to continue their legacy alone. On top of navigating her grief and trauma, Sara realizes her supposed safehouse isn't so safe. Vampires live down the street. Yet, unlike their blood-crazed kin, they exhibit a curious sense of... humanity. Despite her instincts screaming for her to be wary, Sara is drawn to them. In particular, a copper-haired vampire with a half-cocked smile. The longer she researches the coven, the more she finds herself questioning everything she thought she knew about vampires. Sara must decide whether to follow her heart or her hunter's instincts. Her journey will challenge her preconceptions, ignite forbidden passions, and force her to consider what it truly means to be human. The story is being worked into an audiobook on Youtube via Text-to-Speech using ElevenLabs. Each chapter will eventually have a link. Or find me on Youtube at FaeSparksOfficial to listen to the book 1 playlist. Notes: Strong sexual content will begin in book two. Polyamory to be hinted in book one, but come to fruition later in the series (book three). Main themes will revolve around morality, culture, and legacy. *Will try to complete before 2025 Ambys* Cover by Canva.
