Ryu: Ash Beneath The Crown by Quietdreamer52
54 parts Ongoing Mature
In the shattered realm of Elysium, two powers divide the land. The radiant Lumia White Bloods, born of sanctified magic, and the Blood-forged Tenebrae Night Bloods, masters of monsters and beasts. Their centuries old feud has left kingdoms crumbling, skies darkened, and blood soaking the soil of a dying world. To end the endless war, the Kingdom of Elysium calls for a queen one powerful enough to unite the fractured clans. But the path to the throne is forged in agony. Young women from every province born if Esteemed Clans are cast into The Hollow Proving, a deadly maze where reality bends and only the ruthless survive. Those who emerge face the final trial the Sanguine, a brutal arena where contenders wield magic, monsters, and madness for the crown itself. Among them is Vesperine, a girl marked by secrets even she doesn't understand. She bleeds pearl white, dreams in flame, and carries a power the world has forgotten. When she unleashes something ancient-a creature of dark majesty and untamed loyalty-she draws the gaze of eyes lurking below, a man as dangerous as the beasts he commands. But in Elysium, nothing is as it seems. Loyalties fracture, monsters remember, and even love can be a weapon. As truth and deception entwine, Vesperine must decide whether she will be the kingdom's salvation or the reason it burns. Blood will spill. Crowns will break. And beneath the ruins, dragons stir once more. For readers who love The Hunger Games, Red Queen, and Fourth Wing-welcome to Elysium. Welcome to Ryu.

IMPORTANT: This manuscript is a rough draft - widely unedited. There may be grammar, spelling, and pacing issues. I've been working on this story since 2023 in my original manuscript and hope to one day publish the final, extended version. I could see him grinning out of the corner of my eye. He was enjoying this far too much. "Just do not ever scare me like that again, Jasper," I fussed. He winced as I moved the cloth across his ribs. "Or what?" he toyed. I stopped and glared at him, stammering, trying to think of something clever. "I-I'll... I don't know, but I'll think of something." Before I knew it, Jasper had his arm around my waist and pulled me into the tub with a splash. "Jasper," I gasped. In a world where humans and orcs have been at war for centuries, 22-year-old Lady Brenna of Blackwater Hold is sent to the Northern Orruk Horde - an unheard-of act. Her father, King Corvus, pledged her to the chief, Jasper Bloodborne, to save his own life. Were these orcs the beasts her father taught her to fear? She soon learns how wrong she was - and that her time in the Northern Orruk Mountains will change everything she thought she knew about loyalty, courage, and desire. ⚠️ Content Warning: This story contains sexual content, mentions of SA, miscarriage, abortion, violence, and gore.

She leaves her family to live with a man she has never met. She's only read about him, and knows the hell she's getting into, but she does this to save her father's kingdom. In a time where women are used, abused, and punished without cause even for being literate without marriage to a royal bloodline, watch this young woman defy all odds, the idea of normalcy, and eventually conquer the heart of the king who is feared by all. "Why do you always test my patience?" "I don't mean to," Saya tells him, still looking in his eyes. "...I'm sorry" she manages to say. The king can't stand this, suddenly crashing his lips against hers immediately. How can she make him so furious but still manage to turn him on? Cover done by @__AK__WRITES ❤❤❤
