Deadlytrials Stories

The Trials of a Claremont is currently undergoing revisions based on reader feedback. The core story is complete, but chapters may be updated periodically to improve clarity, character perspective, and overall readability. Book 1 of Claremont Academy. Moving to daily updates until all 51 chapters are posted. Araya Claremont has lived her entire life knowing one thing- if she fails, she won't be the only one who pays for it. In a world where power decides everything and the weak are thrown into the Sea of Despair, survival isn't just a goal. It's an expectation. Being chosen to attend Claremont Academy should have been an advantage. It was built by her family. It should have been safe. It isn't. Her plan was simple: stay quiet, blend in, and graduate without drawing attention. That plan ends the moment of her Emergence. Summoned by President Rhett Grant-something no one walks away from unchanged-Araya is forced into the spotlight for possessing an affinity that should not exist. And at Claremont, standing out is the fastest way to become a target. Surrounded by ruthless competition, dangerous alliances, and trials designed to break even the strongest, Araya is pushed into a world where trust is fragile and survival comes at a cost. The only thing standing between her and complete destruction? The few allies she finds along the way... and Dante-the one person who might understand what she's becoming. But in a place built to tear you apart- how much of yourself can you lose before there's nothing left to save?

Every century, the Sovereign Trials decide the fate of the eight kingdoms. Eight heirs enter. Only one leaves with the crown. Raised from childhood to survive the brutal trials, Diana Halloran, princess of the Kingdom of Fire, knows failure means more than losing a throne, it means losing everything she has fought her entire life for. Among her rivals stands Ardyn Valen, the dangerous and enigmatic prince of the Kingdom of Shadows, whose power, and ambition, rivals her own. As the trials grow deadlier and alliances fracture, Diana fights her way toward victory. But just when the crown is within reach, a power awakens inside her, one that should not exist within the bloodline of Fire. And if the kingdoms discover the truth, the trials may not be the only thing determined to see her fall.

The story follows a group of ordinary people forced into a mysterious 'Reincarnation Space,' where each trial is shaped by horror films, science fiction, or even ancient myths. Every mission becomes a deadly test: survive by completing the task and gain rewards to strengthen themselves-or fail, and perish.

In a world stitched together by hidden trials, living monsters, and untold magic, Jacky thought survival meant staying invisible. She was wrong. When a mysterious girl named Amy pulls her into the shadowy realm of the Mickelry-a deadly proving ground built to test those bound to ancient power-Jacky's life detonates into chaos. Talking animals, flying cliffs, murderous games of truth and lies, and supernatural creatures aren't glitches in reality... they're the rules. And Jacky is suddenly playing whether she likes it or not. Haunted by betrayal from the people she once trusted and armed with nothing but sharp sarcasm and stubborn courage, Jacky discovers an impossible ability: the power to connect to animals, to understand their suffering and command their aid.

She is a lost princess, bound to an ancient curse tied to a glowing, fractured bullet-shaped relic-the Bullet's Curse-a symbol of power capable of saving worlds... or shattering them. As enemies close in and her teammates risk everything to clear each brutal trial, Jacky must decide who she truly is: a frightened runaway desperate to survive, or the unwilling heir to a throne soaked in prophecy and blood. Because in the Mickelry, every choice is fatal... ...and destiny always hits its target.

In a world ruled by merciless oceans, five island kingdoms rise from the tides - each blessed 4000 years ago with divine elemental magic. But the ocean is no savior. It chooses only the strongest. Beyond the borders of the kingdoms lies the Dead Ocean, an endless, cursed sea no ship has ever survived... except during the sacred Trials. Once every year, the ocean allows warriors from each kingdom to compete in a brutal series of deadly challenges across the lands and seas. The kingdom that wins receives the Ocean's Blessing - a gift powerful enough to strengthen their elemental magic and shift the balance of the world. This year, however, the Trials will be different. For the first time in generations, the heirs of the two strongest rival kingdoms will compete. Prince Kaelor Veyne of Aurelia. Princess Selene Vaelor of Lunaven. Enemies born from centuries of war. Rivals raised to destroy one another. But in a world where the ocean devours the weak, survival may require something far more dangerous than hatred. Trust. #YA #Romantasy #EnemiesToLovers #RivalKingdoms #DeadlyTrials #ElementalMagic Thank you 🌸

Two warriors. One prophecy. And a love that could burn the world to the ground. They built the Trials to break her. She'll burn their empire instead. In a world ruled by the Ascended, the Lowborn are given a single chance at freedom - survive four deadly Trials inside the Academy. Most don't make it past the first. No one survives the last. Nyra Vale was never meant to be chosen. A pit fighter with bloodied knuckles and a serpent-shaped mark she's spent her life hiding, Nyra steps into the Academy ready to fight - but not to play by their rules. Kael Draven was raised by the very system built to crush her. Bound by an Oath to watch, not interfere, Kael is meant to be her silent judge. But the longer he observes her, the harder it becomes to obey - and the more dangerous his loyalty becomes. As the Trials grow bloodier and whispers of a forbidden Vault awaken ancient fears, Nyra's survival is no longer about freedom. It's about vengeance. And she's done waiting for permission to rise.

She was just an ordinary outcast-ignored, underestimated, and perfectly fine with it. Until the dreams began. Until her mother was murdered. Until she was dragged into a deadly trial where only one could survive. Now, she must fight monsters, face her fears, and uncover the truth behind her strange visions. Because behind her quiet facade... something dangerous is waking up.
