❃ AWARD-WINNING PUBLISHED NOVEL ❃ BOOK I OF THE TRANSCENDENCE SERIES ❃ Growing up during the centuries-long conflict between the empires of Egypt and Hatti, the young princess Istara is taken hostage by the King of Hatti to secure the loyalty of her father, the King of Kadesh to the empire. Soon her new life in Hatti's glittering capital becomes all she knows. Bound in blood before the gods to Hatti's unwilling crown prince, Istara, now Hatti's queen-in-waiting, learns she will never be loved. But the drums of war beat again, and when the scheming plans of Hatti's king threaten the existence of all civilization, the gods give Istara a choice: to leave behind everything she knows to save mankind, or remain where she is, powerless, a token on the game board of kings. On the brink of one of the most brutal battles in history, she chooses to risk her life to deliver a message to the only man able to prevent the prophecy from becoming a reality--her mortal enemy, the Pharaoh Ramesses II. Wounded, cold and hungry, she wanders in the battle's horrific aftermath, and aids a powerful commander, who she learns protected her once, and has been bound to her ever since by a prophetic dream of his future. Despite his resistance, and Istara once more becoming a pawn of kings, they must confront an eternal love so powerful, not even kings, the gods, or death can keep them apart.

BOOK 1 [COMPLETE] BOOK 2 [IN PROGRESS] All those fairy tales your parents scared you with are real. All those creatures you feared truly do exist. But why can't we see them? Why are there no creatures lurking around Earth killing every single human they want when they are capable of doing so? You never knew, but you you could feel that there was someone on the top stopping that from happening. King so cold and ruthless that he wouldn't bat his eye when killing other creatures, but had a soft spot for one person that he knew won't ever met. Until the cog of fate broke and his destiny came rushing in his life bringing him that one person he never thought he'll have pleasure to see: His own soul-mate. A human, at that. She was abused, fragile human that could bring about his downfall yet he saw her as someone his to protect and care for. He could be evil for everyone in other Ten Realms that existed, but only for her could he allow himself to abandon his throne. Only with her could he show his emotions. She is the light that could wash away his curse. She is his light, yet he's nothing but a pure darkness. A perfect evil. A creature incapable of of love. The brighter the light is, the darker will creature be attached to it, trying to embrace it, to save itself. And so he craved her. But maybe his darkness was way too stronger than her innocence and the only outcome of their relationship was him breaking her. All she wanted was to live. All he wanted was to be loved. But when you put two oposites together, one is bound to be destroyed. In this case, it was Ayla. That's the way Viktor was from the very beginning. Forever, the Cursed One. ___ Contains dark and mature content such as blood (a lot of fighting, actually), violence, curse words (wouldn't be an evil creature if he didn't curse), self harm matters, murders, corruption, power, gender inequality... Many things we turn a blind eye to yet should be shown for everyone to know how to deal with.
