"Just because you're wordless doesn't mean you're powerless."
Wren of Swansong - mute, lame, and brilliant. Having witnessed a tragedy as a young girl, Wren struggles to express herself under her overprotective mother's wings. She leaves her sleepy village for the great city of Leidblum, desperate to make something of herself. At Leidblum's School of Dreammaking, she meets an unlikely friend in cold, arrogant Kais Blackwood, who's just as equally gifted in dreammaking as she is, a tabby cat named Oliver, and an unconventional, charismatic teacher whose true motives seem to lie elsewhere.
Something is stirring in the Blacklands, an unexplored place where the undreaming are said to be. Little does Wren know of her own lineage, an ancient line of Dreammakers from the rival country of Eyverlin.

She plans to sell the old cottage and return quickly-but grief and memories root her longer than expected. In the wild garden, she discovers a white cat with amber eyes watching her as if it knows her. The cat, whom Ling names Orm, becomes her quiet companion.

What Ling doesn't know is that Orm is Kornnaphat, a powerful woman cursed a hundred years ago by a jealous witch she once loved. The curse turned her into a cat until someone offered her unconditional love-not romantic, but true love rooted in companionship, trust, and shared pain. One stormy night, after Ling breaks down and whispers to Orm, "You're the only one who's ever made me feel safe," the curse shatters. Orm becomes human again. Now, Kornnaphat must learn how to live again-and hide her secret from the village while living as a "relative" of Ling's. As they live and bake and rebuild, romantic feelings bloom. But shadows stir. The old witch's descendants still hunt for Kornnaphat, afraid her rebirth could unravel their hidden magic. Now, Ling and Kornnaphat must protect each other while deciding if their love is truly fate-or just another part of the curse.Complete
Hollowspire
In a city where magic is bound by iron and oaths, Nyx has spent years hunting the things that slip through the cracks - demons, devourers, creatures whispered about in forgotten prayers. She's good at it, until a single mission leaves her bloodied, bound to a voice she can't silence, and staring down a war she doesn't understand. As her orders grow murky and the wards that keep the world safe begin to flicker, Nyx is pulled deeper into a web of old prophecies and older hungers. Every step she takes toward the truth draws her closer to the thing she's sworn to destroy... and to the shadowed figure whose help she can't seem to refuse. Ancient power is waking. The Spire is hollowing. And Nyx may be the last barrier between the world and a hunger older than its name. Please feel free to give constructive criticism. It's been a while since I've been back in the writing game but I got inspired for this.

The Immortal Quartet (First Draft Beta Reader Version)
Talented violinist Wren Cotter is scouted for a transfer from her university to an elite private academy. All seems good and well until she meets her fellow students. Vampires and magic? Such things may seem intimidating, yet Wren continues to stay true to herself and strive to become a renowned composer, doing everything in her power to ignore the fact that she now lives in a den of supernatural beings. Though as the days go by, she gets closer to those around her, eventually finding herself receiving the attention of four vampires who are inexplicably drawn to her. Content warnings: • respectful treatment of women and queer people; • positive depictions of polyamory and polifidelity; • consensual intimacy (trust me there are people out there that need this CW); • graphic sex scenes (straight, gay, threesome). Trigger warnings: • blood and vampiric shenanigans; • mentions of death and burning alive; • loss of parents and related grief; • dubcon (kinda? will need help figuring out if this is actually true or if i can remove this from the list). This is the first draft of the novel and is published on Wattpad for the sake of hopefully receiving feedback to improve the story.Complete
