"I am Cahira, keeper of the Dragon's fire and I bow for no one"
Cahira an orphan ousted by a village who was afraid by a power she could not control. Isolated in a dense forest, unwittingly protecting the village that casted her out, treated no better then a feral watchdog. At least until, a wounded goblin comes baring a message and a false prophecy that sends her on a wild chase to find a mentor to train the beast within her. But things are not always what they seem. A pawn is a pawn, whether it's protecting your captors, being an unwilling participant in an uprising or a vital piece in a monster's soul.
But it doesn't matter, not for a person with nothing else to lose but with everything to gain... Or is that how it was suppose to go?
(Updates are slow but they will come my little spit-fires. You can scream at me on the convo feed, if you're impatient. I understand, I'm yelling at myself too)

Innocent
"But you chose to kill me instead, And play the hero 'till you dropped dead. Carried on the shoulders of your righteous soldiers, While my body was discarded at the borders-" ... How cruel must one be to massacre his own kind? Once a celebrated warrior, now the nightmare of a horrid tragedy. A century has passed since the fall of one of the greatest nations, more than a hundred years since the collapse of mighty Caelus at the hands of one man. A hundred years since the wicked traitor was banished to the cursed forest, and since then, rumors followed his name wherever it was whispered throughout the lands. That he was merely insane; he slaughtered his people and set his own wings aflame, a beast who gruesomely devoured the heart of his sole brother- Or, perhaps, he's but an old man's tale. Haunted is the Malus forest by his name, a prison to the fallen soldier as many claim. As you know, words wander and circulate, so trust none but my own, for only I can tell you the truth. The day I was abandoned there, and the night I met him.
The Hymn Of Destruction
There are situations disguised as blessings that turn people's world upside-down, spiralling down uncontrolled, sinking together to the point of no return. Sometimes greediness wormed its way and people wants time to freeze just to savour the moment a little bit longer.

It was pain that taught her that the world is cruel and embracing darkness is the only way to live, for it will always be true. A rarity in the world she is now. Emotions are fickle things, and there is no room for it in this place. Life in exchange for peace and slippery freedom. Blood for the sake of principles. She is an unknown pawn in the game of chess that will be used to destroy the enemy. She is the black horse silently tearing its way into the lion's den. Will she prevail? Or is her darkness within becomes her undoing? A battle of dominance is brewing. There is no time to hesitate as the enemy sets their eyes on her, waiting to strike at her most vulnerable.

Blood & Ashes
The Kingdom of Vareth was built on dragon fire, ruled by riders feared across the realm. But not all who enter the Dragon Rider Quadrant come for honor. Princess Verena Corvin refuses to be caged by crown or duty. Disguised as a recruit, she risks treason to claim her freedom in the Quadrant. Survival should be her greatest challenge. But then there's him. Grayson Van Dijk -ruthless rider, feared legend, and sworn enemy of her bloodline. He's waited years for revenge, and now the daughter of the man he despises has walked straight into his domain. He'll break her. Make her fail. Watch her fall. But Verena is not the fragile royal he expected. Every strike meant to ruin her only sharpens her fire. Every obstacle only steels her will. And when a rogue, untamable dragon chooses her, she becomes impossible to erase. Hatred turns to obsession. Loathing twists into dangerous attraction. The harder he pushes, the harder she pushes back-until their fury burns hotter than dragon fire. But war is coming, secrets are unraveling, and Grayson's vengeance may cost them both everything. She was supposed to be his enemy. So why does he keep saving her?
Captured By A Demon
I finally escaped the factory, they kidnapped me from my college. Today is my birthday, and I had planned for it but nothing helped, only calming me down for the moment. A scream echoed out in the silent starry sky, my body freezing... They were looking for me, I just knew it. Again, I ran and jumping over the fence to the property, muscles burning, my breathing short. I look behind me, not seeing the light of the school anymore. I slow down, holding my breath again. Looking around, only trees and bugs surround me. I slowly sank to my knees, gripping the grass in between my fingers, to keep my breathing calm. Tears springing to my eyes and brushing the tears away, slowly getting back to normal. Suddenly, I felt someone behind me. I could feel its strength and power surround me, turning around to see a dark figure behind me. Glowing blue eyes stared at me, seeing it slowly walk toward me. My breathing becoming short again, a panic attack was on the verge. A hand was now on my shoulder and another on my cold cheek, making me look into his eyes, "Let me help you..." He whispered. Rubbing his thumb against my cheek, I slowly nod my head, when a pain began to form in my chest. I knew it was coming. I quickly get away, crawling a couple feet away. "Get away!" I yelled. My skin turning white and the pain erupting inside of me, feeling it try to escape, and I know if I let it. It will hurt this man. Suddenly, he was there in my view. Blue eyes staring at me, and then his lips were on my own. Gasping as I felt the pain beginning to disappear from inside me. Eyes drooping and my body relaxing against his. Soon, the kiss ended and I was empty. My eyes closing. "Don't worry, I will keep you safe..."Complete

Ashes of the Celestial Bond
In a kingdom where every soul is born tethered to a celestial beast, she came into the world unclaimed. Unwanted. Unworthy. Saphira Elion was supposed to die at birth - her heart silent, her bond absent. But when a dying dragon chooses her as its final host, she is resurrected... with fire in her lungs and vengeance in her blood. Thrust into the Aetherion Citadel, a sky-bound war academy built on ancient bones and older lies, she becomes the anomaly everyone wants erased - hunted by heirs, feared by beasts, and bound to a creature that should no longer exist. And then there's Commander Rhaziel Voren - the Citadel's dark heir, forged in loyalty and rage. His beast tried to kill her. His gaze tries harder. But something is breaking inside the Citadel. The celestial bonds are unraveling. The beasts are whispering. And deep beneath the academy, a buried god is stirring. She was never soulless. She is the lock to a door that should never be opened. And now the flames she carries will either burn the world clean - or reduce it to ash.
Curse of the Stars Book 1
"You will seek death but you will not find it. You will long to lose consciousness but ever present you shall stay. Finally alone you will shrivel up and die without your own kind in all your magnificent splendor, and only after everyone you love is dead. By then, it will no longer matter, for when you finally have your light you will depart from it faster than fire from a raging wind. But perhaps you would have comfort yet little one. Death is a sweet thing in a world like this." Cursed by a Wishing Dragon when she was only a dragonet, Stygian sets off in search of a cure, leaving behind everyone she knows and loves. On her journey for help she meets more enemies than friends, with a little red fox as her only companion. At last she finds Turbulence; God of Confusion; the only one who can save her, or so he or she claims. *** Fyran, the Librarian's Apprentice is on the hunt for Leviathan; a legendary beast long foretold by prophecy, a prophecy she had disregarded as an old fable. Yet, ever since her father stumbled into their broken down house one dark night covered in blood and deliriously talking about a dragon with iron teeth, Fyran is no longer so sure. After her father dies and renders them all penniless, Fyran goes in search of this creature to take revenge-and the huge bounty on its head issued by the King of Sufta. Perhaps she will be successful and they'll no longer have to grovel as the poorest of the poor, and at the very least she'll acquire justice for the murder of her father, the only father she's ever had. But there is an old and forgotten prophecy as old as time fast approaching on the horizon. Nobody can stop it, fate is a force that can't be reckoned with, and everything that ever has and will ever happen to every citizen has already been foretold in their scrolls. The fate of Sufta is uncertain, and powerful forces are at play, but who has enough discernment to understand a long forgotten prophecy that's been dismissed by generations?Complete
