This is not a story about what happens. It's about what almost does. At an Ivy League medical school, Isabelle Laurent is known as the Ice Queen-brilliant, distant, untouchable. No one gets close. No one stays. Alexander Whitmore was never supposed to be different. Charming, privileged, and infamous for never staying longer than a few weeks, he understands desire. What he doesn't understand, until Isabelle, is restraint. She believes he doesn't want her. He knows wanting her openly would destroy everything. So they choose the most dangerous thing instead: friendship. "The most dangerous thing about Alexander Whitmore was not his reputation, nor his charm, nor the power he would one day inherit. It was the fact that he never asked for anything from me, and somehow, without realizing it, I had begun to give him everything that mattered." Slow burn • Dual POV • Consent • Emotional intimacy

This book is a collection of independent, standalone one-shots I wrote during quiet moments - when inspiration struck and I simply followed it. The genres vary, the tones shift, and the characters change - but each story carries a fragment of thought, emotion, or imagination I didn't want to keep to myself. Thank you for being here.

[COMPLETED] He was a veteran, she was a foreigner. He loved her, she could read his mind. He wore gloves to protect others from his sins. She wore kimonos to reclaim her identity. Willing Prey is a romance fantasy novel about a disillusioned ex-colonel, Gerald Aldrick, finally feeling his dead heart beat again after getting unfairly yelled at by a fearless geisha, Robin Taylor. But instead of anger or annoyance, Gerald feels nothing but admiration for her fervor and personality. Robin isn't as impressed with him, but fully plans to take advantage of his legendary colonel status for her own benefit with the help of her mind-reading ability. The question is, will she find herself feeling more for him than she initially expected? The story deals with heavy themes that are deeply personal for the characters. Gerald and his PTSD from war, dealing with the contradictory politics at home, and Robin with her identity issues as a trans immigrant. It's heavy, psychological, and grounded.

In public, I'm the obedient daughter of House Velmire. In private, I'm learning to dismantle everything they've built. It started with an interrogation. Sirius Lioren-Union reformer, political rival, the right hand of the man I was sent to sabotage-broke every belief I'd ever held. Not with torture, but with questions I couldn't answer. Now I see the truth. And I can't unsee it. So I go back to the manor. But not as the meek daughter they think I am. I smile through arranged marriage negotiations while my heart belongs to the one man I can never have. I master forbidden magic that could stop a heart while passing secrets to the resistance. I play the perfect heiress while the people in the lower quarters become the family I choose. Every stolen glance with my family's enemy feels like treason. Every secret meeting pulls me deeper into a world I was raised to destroy. Every moment I spend on the wrong side of this war, I become someone my family wouldn't recognize. But revolution has a cost. And when the careful balance I've built begins to crumble, when my grandfather's suspicions sharpen, when I'm forced to choose between the people I love and the power I wield... I'll discover exactly how far I'm willing to go. Even if it means becoming the monster they always wanted. Even if it means breaking rules I didn't know could be broken. A fantasy of forbidden love, political revolution, dangerous magic, and the impossible choices that fracture everything. Updates every Tuesday and Friday.

These are just small pieces of our days. Bus rides, cold mornings, the kind of talk that slips out without any plan behind it. Nothing big. Nothing that would matter to anyone else. Just the things we noticed before they faded. I wrote them down here because, well... if I didn't, they'd vanish quickly like a wave of the sea does. One moment they're right in front of you, and then they're gone, tucked somewhere in the past where you can't reach them anymore. Maybe putting them here doesn't save anything, not really. But it lets me look at them for a little longer. All I can do is catch them for a moment - the light, the voices, the way the city feels when it breathes - and leave them on these pages. These stories were ours. These quiet seconds, these almost-forgotten scenes. But, it doesn't matter because they belonged to us for a moment. And now, they belong to you for a moment too. PS: I'll release this on Royal Road! Stay tuned! :D

The Bride Selection is not a celebration. When King Asper comes of age, women from every corner of the kingdom enter the palace, each hoping to wear the crown-or so it seems.

And not every bride intends to become an empress.

He has 20 hours before his mind is scrubbed to zero.​ --7 Resets. 20 Hours. 1 Stolen Life. ​0 Escapes. ​The clock is ticking. The static is calling.
