Valsteeds Assassin by purplekushbabe

Vixen Nightbloom is an assassin feared across kingdoms, a blade honed in darkness and blood. Trained by the ruthless Alaric, who shaped her into his perfect weapon, Vixen has spent her life running from her past, haunted by shadows and the faces of those she's killed. When she's captured and chained, stripped of her powers and caged within Shadow lock prison, Vixen must navigate a deadly game of alliances and betrayals, playing the roles of prisoner, protector, and something far more dangerous. King Malachi and his captain, Ezra, are torn between their desire to keep Vixen close and the growing fear that she's far more than she appears. Bound to them by fate, secrets, and bonds they don't fully understand, Vixen struggles to keep her fractured past buried. But when whispers of rebellion surface, and Alaric returns to reclaim her as his weapon, Vixen's carefully constructed world begins to unravel. Caught between the loyalty of those who would kill for her and the men who would die to save her, Vixen must confront the truth she's buried for so long-her destiny as the last heir of a fallen kingdom and the power that lies dormant within her blood. As the lines between enemy and ally blur, and the pull of a long-forgotten throne beckons, Vixen must decide whether to rise from the ashes or let the darkness consume her once more. In a world where trust is a fragile illusion and power comes at a deadly price, Vixen's next move could save a kingdom-or destroy it.

The Silent oath by Kora_626

** UNDER EDITING*** In a world where loyalty is forged in blood and betrayal lurks in every shadow, Zai has dedicated her life to The Family-a secretive order bound by unbreakable oaths and the will of a Faceless god. Trained to be a deadly weapon, Zai knows that love is a weakness, one that could unravel everything she has fought for. But Zai's carefully constructed world begins to crumble when she falls for Alicent, a fierce and compassionate warrior within the ranks. As The Family faces an escalating threat from The Dreamers, a rival faction worshipping a god of chaos, Zai is thrust into a mission that could end in her death-or worse, in the loss of the one person she holds dear. When tragedy strikes, Zai's grief turns to a relentless drive for vengeance. But as she battles both enemies and her own inner demons, Zai discovers that the true power of love is not in its ability to weaken, but in its strength to endure. In a final confrontation that will test her resolve and loyalty to the limits, Zai must decide whether to honour the oath that binds her or to break it for the chance at freedom-and justice. But in the shadows, The Faceless One watches, and the price of defiance may be higher than Zai could ever have imagined. The Silent Oath is a gripping tale of love, loss, and the unyielding pursuit of justice in a world where silence is survival and every vow carries the weight of destiny.
