The rejected crown (book 1)
"How can I choose between my heart and my duty when loving you feels like the only truth I know?" The throne is empty, and the realm is crumbling. A princess must prove her right to rule, but can she survive a kingdom that doubts her? A witch, once hunted, is ready to take power-how far will she go for revenge? A knight sworn to kill and hunt witches begins to question everything, just as a time traveler from the future arrives with secrets that could change everything. In a world on the edge of chaos, who will rise-and who will fall?" (Warning: 18+ content. Not everything in the story are things i personally agree with or support but keep in mind its just fiction )Complete
The Ex-Celeb
Life can be difficult for many people, events that happen can reshape their entire futures. For some people, they let it all slide by, but deep down they hold onto it. Letting it fester like an old, untreated wound. Is my life over? No. not quite yet. Although at times it certainly feels that way. To clarify, I have a rare condition that could cause me to drop dead at any given time, I won't know when, or where. It certainly makes life interesting at the least. But there is one issue with how things are, fifty percent of the people I know want me to die, but the other fifty percent can't let that happen. Because I control an empire. And before you ask, I'm not a prince, or a world leader. I'm just a person who has a hand in everything. A mastermind, a savior, a fixer, a criminal. I am everything and yet nothing. My name is Ioan Hedaya. And my life, is very crazy.Complete
