Tragicheroine Stories

Lunavirae Aurelione was born a mistake-a magical anomaly the Noctivar Dominion never learned how to contain. When she runs, she doesn't flee war or ruin. She flees expectation. Her refuge comes in the form of a quiet bargain with the human Emperor of Mor'desia, where power is measured, borders are polite, and violence wears a civil face. Recast as Luna Valemorn, she is given protection, a name, and a place where no one asks the wrong questions. It is safer here. It is quieter. And slowly, it begins to close. Each choice tightens the shape of her life. Each compromise feels reasonable. Necessary. In a court that would execute her for the blood in her veins, the mask of a princess becomes her only armor. But the more perfectly she plays the part, the further she drifts from the girl who once chose freedom over obedience. Crownveil is a slow-burn fantasy about identity, restraint, and the subtle horror of realizing the cage you live in was built by your own hands.

"Two can keep a secret... if one of them is under the stone." In the ancient, mist-shrouded town of Cloisterham, prestige is a mask and loyalty is a death sentence. Edwin Drood is the golden boy with a pre-arranged future. John Jasper is the respected music master with a soul rotting from opium and obsession. And Helena Landless is the outsider-a girl with a predator's instincts and a heart tied solely to her twin brother, Neville. When Edwin disappears on the night of the century's worst storm, the town cries for blood. Neville is the prime suspect, trapped in a blackout he can't explain. But behind the closed doors of the Cathedral gatehouse, a deadlier game is being played. Manipulated by a madman and fueled by a desperate need to protect her brother, Helena must navigate a labyrinth of guilt and gaslighting. But as the mysterious Dick Datchery arrives to unearth the truth, the "Shadow of the Spire" begins to close in. How far would you go to save the only person who loves you? And can you ever truly bury the past when gold doesn't rot?

They called her a traitor. The king called her his best friend. The truth? It died with her. Kaelin was born in the slums but raised beside a king. Fierce, loyal, and battle-scarred, she became the protector of a throne she could never sit on. Her bond with King Alex was unbreakable-until whispers turned to accusations, and loyalty turned to execution. Now, with the kingdom on the edge of war and truth buried beneath crowns and lies, everyone remembers Kaelin as the traitor with a secret on her lips. But stories don't end with last breaths. And some ghosts never stay dead.

Limang imperyo. Limang kapangyarihan. Isang babae. Ang mundo ay umiikot sa isang lihim na hindi kayang hawakan ng kahit sino. May isang babae sa gitna ng limang imperyo, nagtataglay ng kapangyarihang hindi kayang kontrolin ng kahit sino. Ang mundo ay lumalaban sa kanya, ngunit hindi niya alam kung siya ang banta o ang pag-asa. Isang lalaki ang minahal niya o nagmahal sa kanya? Isang kaibigan na lagi niyang kasama, tahimik ang pagmamahal, ngunit may lihim sa bawat galaw. Sa ilalim ng maskara ng simpleng mamamayan, bawat tawa, bawat luha, bawat sigaw ng digmaan ay nagiging sentro ng kapangyarihan. At habang ang limang imperyo ay nag-aaway para sa pagkontrol ng kapangyarihan, isang lihim ang umiikot sa hangin, sa apoy, sa tubig, sa lupa, at sa kidlat. Isang lihim na puwedeng sirain ang lahat, o iligtas ang mundo. #HBFESF2026

~ Mirrorbound Trilogy: Book 1 ~ The world ended before it ever began. A shattered city. Blood where there used to be light. A girl standing in the middle of it all. Imagine losing your memory, your best friend betraying you, and watching your own death. That's Eris - the antihero everyone underestimates. Someone's out to get her, and nothing is what it seems. And no, you're not crazy - from the prologue to Chapter 1, we went back in time. Have fun reading ;)

She was the first vampire... but she was never meant to be. Cinnamon Wells - born two thousand years ago - carries a curse older than time itself. Half vampire, half bori, she is the child of betrayal, born from forbidden love and drowned in blood. Her family murdered her unborn child and the only man she ever loved... or so she thought. Now, centuries later, she walks the earth under a new name, driven by a single obsession: bring back what was taken. Dark magic. Lost memories. A boy who looks too much like the man she lost. As Cinnamon prepares to sacrifice him, her past catches up - and so does the one man she thought she'd lost forever. But this time, he's not here to love her. He's here to kill her. Yet death is not the end. Reborn as Nica Kingsley, she has one chance to escape her curse: Remember who she is before her 18th birthday... or die again.

She was born into poverty and hatred, branded as the family's pain, the girl no one wanted. But beneath the silence and sorrow, she carried a secret: when she looked into someone's eyes, she could see the exact time and cause of their death. Terrified of her gift, she hides it-until the visions begin to come true. As whispers of witchcraft spread and love becomes dangerous, she must choose: warn the living and risk being hunted, or stay silent and watch fate unfold. When she sees her own death reflected in a mirror, everything changes. Set in a world where time is carved into flesh and fate bleeds through stone, The Curse of Time is a story of rejection, prophecy, and the aching question: Can you change fate-or only watch it break? --- ✍️ Author's Note This story was born from silence-the kind that lives in families, in poverty, in the eyes of those who feel unwanted. I wrote The Curse of Time not to glorify pain, but to transform it. To ask what we do when we carry a gift that feels like a curse. To explore how love survives when death is always near. I believe stories can comfort, disturb, and awaken. This one does all three. If you've ever felt like the outsider, the burden, the one who sees too much-this book is for you. And if you've ever wondered whether fate is fixed or fragile, I hope this story helps you find your answer. -Alex Landrito ---

Bari, named after the legendary Korean princess who journeyed to the underworld, was a K-pop trainee on the verge of breaking, not from the industry's ruthless standards, but from an incurable illness that threatened to erase her, her soulmate, and her future. At her lowest, Victor, a K-pop manager alluding to Frankenstein, offered her a desperate solution: the industry's first CRISPR-built idol, a genetically "perfected" version of Bari that would solve her problem. But was Victor a savior or something far worse? Bari had hard battles to fight. Accompanied by her friend Ji-soon and guided by a Korean Mudang-a female shaman-she traversed into her own past as a living witness to a hidden lineage she never knew she had. There, she relived the brutal, many-lives battles between good and bad Korean shaman pigs: chaotic, totemic spirits that feed on human ambition and despair. Each vision cost her a piece of her present, but also unlocked a strange inner resilience. Who was Bari? Could she debut as her true self-not a lab-made idol?
