Awards & Honors 1st Place: Best Plot/Concept in The Inked and Unwritten Awards (my first contest and win XD) On the morning she should have been finalizing wedding plans, Cassandra Vale is torn from her life by a summoning ritual that mistakes desperation for destiny. She awakens in a foreign court alongside four other strangers, each pulled from unfinished lives and private futures. Jason Calloway looks like he lives in the gym and believes strength can solve anything. William James prefers silence and observation to conversation. Vivian Sterling built a life through screens and attention, now stranded in a world that doesn't care who's watching. And Alexander Mercer-the effortless golden boy-hides the truth behind a smile that disarms everyone. Together, they are declared heroes. A world on the brink of collapse claims it had no choice. Demons press against failing seals. Ancient protections crumble. And those in power believe salvation can be taken from another reality, if the need is great enough. But the summoned are not grateful. Being chosen doesn't make you a hero. It makes you a resource. And Cassandra Vale never agreed to be merciful. From the moment they arrive, it becomes clear the ritual was flawed, the explanations incomplete, and the cost deliberately obscured. Cassandra recognizes the pattern immediately. She's read these stories. She knows the roles being offered, the expectations being placed, and the quiet demand for obedience that follows. Playing along may be the only way to survive-but that doesn't mean she intends to accept it. As grief hardens into anger and fragile alliances form, the summoned heroes agree to help a world that stole them. Not because they believe in destiny. Not because they were chosen. But because innocent lives are caught in the middle. This is not a story about divine heroes. It's about a forced kidnapping that tries to turn them into one.

"How much they loved each other, these three" When a girl is given the opportunity to live what seemed to be a normal life, she takes a leap of faith and not soon after, things begin to crumble to pieces around her. She was unknown to dangerous things that lived in the room next to hers, and paid the price for it with the cost of lives that meant the world to her. She deserves an explanation for this, right?

In a world filled with magic, mythical creatures, and ancient grudges, one name is feared above all others. The Dragon King. A century ago, dragonkind was wiped out in a devastating war, leaving him as the last of his kind. In his grief and vengeance, the Dragon King cursed the world itself. Now, only one person can end it. The Warrioress, the strongest of her time, undefeated, unstoppable, and feared by many, was raised with a single purpose: to kill him. But strength does not mean unbroken. Behind her power is a girl shaped by expectations, burdened by the past, and quietly carrying wounds no one sees. She was taught to be fearless. She was never taught how to be free. And there is one truth she cannot escape. She never hated him. She admired him her whole life. When they finally meet, it is not gentle. It is not fate wrapped in softness. It is steel against flame. A clash meant to end in one's death. And yet... in the heart of that battle, something shifts. A hesitation. A recognition. A feeling neither of them were prepared for. Not love at first sight. LOVE AT FIRST FIGHT. For the Dragon King, who has lost everything, she is not just his enemy. And for the Warrioress, he is not the monster she was raised to destroy. In a story where destiny, love, and vengeance intertwine, the line between enemy and soulmate begins to blur. Because sometimes, the strongest hearts are the ones that have suffered the most. And sometimes... the greatest war is not against each other, but against the feelings they were never meant to have. 🕊️Chapters will be updated within 3 days.🕊️

Once, she was a peach tree bathed in spring wind; he, a five-colored stone sleeping beneath her roots. In the age before light, they shared the same breath of heaven and earth. Through endless cycles of death and rebirth, they learned to be human- only to find that no life felt complete without the other. When they meet again in the mortal realm, destiny burns anew. Two souls, one flame- their reunion will ignite the heavens.
