Be careful what you wish for...
Astraea and her younger sister Liliana, live in a faraway realm where magic and other supernatural beings exist - or rather, they used to.
Astraea has always wanted more for her sister. She doesn't want her to have the same drab life their mother had on the family farm her entire life. She wants this enough to make an actual wish, and in doing so, she seals her sister's fate - but not as some nobleman's wife, no... her fate is now something far more treacherous.
But Astraea doesn't know what she has done, and what her wish has now changed within Liliana's fate.
Soon Liliana comes to find an ancient ring, which Astraea thinks will be Liliana's ticket out of their small village and into a new, better life. However things don't go to plan, and eventually Astraea realizes what she has actually brought upon her sister.

The Secrets of the Itaryian Spring
Every ten years, spring returns to the realm of Itaryia. And with it - the Gathering. For one year, the five ancient kingdoms reunite to preserve a fragile peace. But this time, the Council resurrects the Rings of Union - a forbidden ritual that binds royal heirs into marriages chosen by magic itself. Esra of Altamir, the quiet princess who prefers science to politics, never expected her name to be called. Yet when the spell begins, something goes terribly wrong. Her eyes, meant to turn the color of her husband's, flash crimson - a hue unseen for centuries - before splitting into two mismatched shades. The omen shatters the ceremony. The prince she was to wed turns into a beast before the court. The earth trembles. Her father falls trying to protect her. And Esra's destiny fractures in an instant. Fleeing across the sea with enemies at her back and secrets in her blood, Esra discovers that her curse is the key to an ancient power - one that could either restore spring... or end it forever. A story of magic, identity, and impossible love. The Secrets of the Itaryian Spring is a lush, cinematic fantasy about the cost of destiny - where beauty is dangerous, and every choice can reshape the world.Complete
Veil of Stars and Storms
One year after defeating the corrupted Maelstrom, Elaria flourishes under the reign of King Alistair and Queen Elara. United by love and destiny, they've brought peace to a once-fractured realm-bridging nobility and magic, forging alliances, and preparing for a future filled with hope. But just as celebration fills the capital's skies, a new threat rises from the shadows of the Ancient Bridge. Whispers of a growing disturbance at the edges of the world stir ancient powers best left undisturbed. A primordial force, older than legend, awakens-and its conspiracy spans far beyond Elaria's borders.

In this sweeping continuation of the Magicbound Chronicles love becomes a weapon, and destiny takes flight.
