NEW SUMMER 2025 | Twenty years ago, the world was flipped on its head by the emergence of Lycans. They existed only in legends and myths... until they didn't. Easily overtaken by the beings who possessed far superior strength and sharpened primordial instincts, the human race fell inferior, poverty-stricken, and was forced to watch as civilization gave way to a higher order. Those who weren't killed in the Emergence gathered in remote towns. This is where Aurora Dyer was raised, with only the faintest memories of life before the Lycans. However, even these isolated settlements could not outrun the Decree issued that fateful winter's eve: His Highness seeks a Bride. The search begins for a suitable mate, whatever the cost. Along with hundreds of other women, Aurora finds herself herded into a world clouded with unimaginable wealth, mystery and depth. As the selection for Her Highness begins, Aurora must not only confront the monster responsible for overtaking her life, but also prevent him from destroying what remains of it. // ONGOING Written by MaybeManhattan

Nyx was raised among the dark elves of Akraizz, where mercy is weakness and loyalty is written in blood. When betrayal leaves her wounded far from home, she expects to die. Instead, she is rescued by Nyla and brought to Thoggan - a dwarven town where a dark elf should never have been welcomed. There she meets Wyn, a quiet light elf healer whose magic saves her life in a matter of moments. But Nyx carries secrets that cannot remain hidden forever. Secrets about the temple that raised her. About the brother who betrayed her. And about a destiny that may change the fragile balance between light and shadow. Because Nyx was never meant to belong to either world.

Sometimes the greatest lie you tell yourself is that you can live without a dark past. I feel as though something is watching me-close enough to breathe, distant enough to hide. It wants me to uncover secrets, yet it fears the day I finally do. As if it longs to be poisoned by my knowing. And then there is Arden. The damnation I never prepared for. The slow poison meant to kill me long before I could poison the truth. My life is splintering. I am breaking-but I will not stop. Not until the secrets bleed out of me, not until my own blood runs dry. My name is Winter Wineshard, and I am a fallen angel- born not to save faith, but to set it alight.

Searies Clairen believed she was human-until the Unseelie Throne claimed her. Dragged into the Unseelie Court and branded with a living mark she never consented to, Searies learns she is neither mortal nor fully fae. The Throne should have burned her to ash. Instead, it bound itself to her, marking her as an anomaly the court has not seen in generations. Now trapped in the Queen's Trials-an ancient, shifting crucible designed to forge rulers-Searies must survive challenges that adapt to her power, her fear, and her defiance. The other candidates see her as a threat. The court watches her with suspicion. And the King of Winter observes her with an attention that feels both dangerous and deliberate. Each Trial strips away the life she knew while awakening something older beneath her skin-magic that does not belong to either court, and a pull toward the Throne that feels less like command and more like destiny tightening its grip. Because the Unseelie Throne does not choose lightly. And it never marks what it does not intend to claim.
