As A Stranger Or A Friend?
Upon the blurred line of morality and at the mercy of circumstance, two souls meet. Again. And again. And again. So, is it simply a coincidence or something more? When a young Mariel leaves home, she is instructed to lead a quiet, ignoble life. Forever. And so, determined to remain overlooked, she toils endlessly, disguised as all things plain. But they say still waters run deep, and even the ordinary are not who they appear to be... So, what would it take for those waters to ripple? Enter the raucous and free Axtapor, a nobleman turned pirate. Dashing through life like a tempest, he is resolved to live on his own terms, allowing none to stand in his way. But a pirate's curse is a pair of wandering eyes, a boundless appetite for more, and a fascination with the unknown. Waters disturbed, the two upend one another's lives with misunderstanding hands and misguided compassion. The balances of fate tip dangerously and they quickly find themselves pitted against the same foe: time. The world's watchful eyes fall upon them as night coats the skies and something unexpectedly new begins to emerge. Hope. Little do they know just how dangerous something like that can be. *Contains mature themes, such as violence, gore, suggestive scenes, and offensive/triggering language, please read with care and at your own discretion.*Complete
Sleeping Roses
Kilan is on the run. From men he knows all too well in a forest he does not know well enough. And running into that tree didn't help. But when he wakes up, the forests are the least of his concerns. Kilan finds he has stumbled upon a castle, hidden deep in the woods, filled with servants and young masters who feel like they might just be more then they seem. And there are the thorns. Thousands upon thousands of thorns that cover the grounds and yet only cover one tower - why? And what about the dreams? The girl in the rose room? She seems so real, almost familiar, and yet he can only see her when he sleeps within the castle walls. She isn't there and he has not the time for a Sleeping Beauty. He has other things to contend himself with, in reality - in the waking world. His most prized possession is gone. A story book that means the world to him is lost within the forests - or worse, someone has their hands on it. Above all, it must be found, he has no time for a girl in dreams and the curse placed upon her - he writes fairy tales, he does not live them. He must find the book and be away from the strange Rose Castle. But someone has already noted his presence and has taken an interest in him.

Mikaela, the prince of Sylvania, was born with a curse he never chose-his mother's face. She died giving him life, and his father, Raj, never forgave him for it. Every glance at his son was a reminder of the woman he loved and lost, and Mikaela grew beneath the shadow of that grief, carrying features that condemned him before he could even speak. As he comes of age, he begins to understand that nothing in his life-his isolation, his father's hatred, the weight of his bloodline-exists without reason. Pieces of a larger truth surround him, yet remain hidden, until the moment he meets him. Bram Trix Warner. The young king of Bickelzone. The encounter sets into motion a chain of betrayals, revelations, and dark desires that will unravel everything Mikaela thought he knew about himself, his family, and the world he is meant to rule. But love was never part of the plan. One throne. Two enemies. And a story soaked in betrayal, obsession...and blood. ⚠️Content Warning: Includes intense violence, blood, and dark relationship themes.
