"I've met Queens like you. And I've met Kings like your mate. You are all the same. Full of darkness and unyielding fire which feels more like ice when you dare to step too close to them. The cruellest to walk these ancient continents, yet often the most beautiful, too. You do not go easily into the void." Freya Silverstar, the Ice Queen to her people, the Luna to her pack of liars, thieves and killers, knew that the World was far bigger than she'd physically seen. But just because she knew doesn't mean she understood. Now, as she sails to fight a war in a land she never thought she'd see again, that World and all its strange inhabitants are turning out to be another of many obstacles between her and hopefully the happily ever after she always wanted. With the pack split so far apart, a war on a distant land, political and personal conflicts to navigate and betrayals to contend with, the main questions remain. Will they all make it back home? How many lives is a war worth? How much blood can you spill before the history decides you aren't a hero, but a villain? And what price is Freya willing to pay for the answer to all her questions? Disclaimer: This is a third book in a trilogy. In order to understand the story, please make sure to read 'Children of Night and Snow' and 'Children of Sun and Peace' first.

At the same time, the merciless waters of the Northern seas keep bringing unknown visitors to the Winterlands' shores. In the mighty shadow of an arena where trials take place, stuck in a web of secrets as well as carefully crafted lies of her own making, Freya must face yet another choice being taken from her, another change to the life she carved in blood for herself. And all that while the long forgotten past conveniently comes knocking... Disclaimer: This is a second book in a trilogy.

What if you dedicated your life to that very dream? And what if it all fell apart before it could even happen? Noyla Brook liked to think she was strong, beautiful and talented.

And now all that remains are deadly consequences. Best Rankings: #1 - MATES #1 - DARK FANTASY #1 - LYCAN #1 - LYCANTHROPE #1 - WEREWOLF

"You're playing with fire Safania." "Good thing I don't burn." The last words he spoke before throwing me onto my bed sounded like a threat, but felt more like a promise. "You will." *** Don't get caught. Those are the three words Safania has lived by for the past five years. As a marked woman - easily identified by intricate bronze marks on her back and unpredictable special abilities - she has spent the past five years running from anyone who might exploit those abilities...especially the royal families who tortured marked women to build their empires. Starving, exhausted, and frozen, she collapses by the bank of a river just to wake up in her worst nightmare: the chambers of a prince. Prince Cassius is his father's first choice of his three brothers to ascend to the throne. He's smart, strategic, and stoic, unlike his corrupt and depraved brothers. There's just one problem: he has no interest in any of his proposed marital matches, and the King will only pick someone as his successor who he knows will carry on the family line. But once he meets Safania, he finds himself unable to imagine ruling the kingdom without her by his side. Can he convince her to trust him? *** Warning: this story contains mature and potentially triggering themes including domestic violence and sexual assault. Reader discretion is advised.

Why is your wolf black?" "It's...not...important." Three more. My head began to lull forward as my neck could no longer hold the weight. He walked around with thundering footsteps and grabbed my head by my wet curls. He pulled my head back until he could see my face, taunting me with a dark smile and eyes full of delight. "Why don't you carry a scent? Who are you?" I gave him a bloody smile as my eyes started to close, darkness singing its siren song beneath the ringing in my ears. "I thought...you'd...never ask," I panted out weakly as I let Enyo penetrate the room with our scent. "I'm...your...mate," I added before passing out, welcoming the darkness like an old, missed friend. - Most impressive ranking: #1 in werewolf, #4 in Lycan, #1 in Slow, #4 in Gory Notes from the Author: If you are looking for a story that leans more on slow-burning, plot-building themes with multiple moving forces that are not solely centered around the straightforward mate bond romance, then start reading! **Strong language and vivid imagery are scattered throughout**

Lyra knew that one day she would be set into an arranged marriage like a chess piece. She had been preparing for it her whole life, and she was almost alright with her fate. But she never thought that her father would choose the man that he did. That decision changed everything. The King of Whales is ruthless, more than twice her age and surrounded by tainted gold and loads of unsavory rumors. There have been many wives of his before Lyra, with no explanations to the untimely deaths of the previous five. With each dead Queen came more money from their kingdoms, straight into the King's portly lap. Disguised as a young man, Lyra runs from her duty as the only Princess of Nordic. She cuts her hair, takes her steed and disappears into the night with her father's men hot on her heels. Enter Kaladin's team. Occupation: Mercenaries. Lyra uses skills taught to her by a close, childhood friend and plays herself into the trust of the dangerous strangers until they accept her, or rather, "Navani", into their group. What will happen to her once they see through her web of lies and tricks? Will Lyra give herself up as Princess when she is reunited with her long-lost friend, or will she carry on as a boy with the mercenaries? Follow Lyra to see what she will do when she comes to realize that things have gotten far too big for her to handle on her own. There are assassin's out for her head, king's thirsting for her blood, and an underground network of people who live for her ruin. But there is also an unlikely Prince to defend her, who has some tricks of his own to rely on. The Princess soon sees that she is not nearly as alone as she may have once thought. What will Lyra do when she comes to terms with her destiny? Will she face it this time with her new friends, or will she chose to run away again? Cover made by @-rebellixus-
