All deals have consequences.
Imprisoned and framed for a plot she had no hand in, Eveliana yearns for a freedom that has been denied to her. The days blend one into the other, marring her sense of time. She often wonders if she'll ever get the chance to enact her own brand of justice upon those who have done her wrong.
Though the loneliness consumes her, Eveliana's prayers are soon answered. Rumpelstiltskin wants to give her what she wants, but she has to play by his own rules. Deep inside, she knows her freedom will come with a heavy cost. When the time comes, the dwarf will have his due by any means necessary.
Unwilling to bend to Rumpelstiltskin's demands, Eveliana sets out on a journey the dwarf has forced upon her. Slaying dragons and giving those in need a helping hand are new concepts to her, yet she's determined in learning as much as possible every step of the way.
Every choice she makes is tainted by the darkness that surrounds her. A darkness that grows by the day. Despite this fact, she's determined to survive in the hopes of saving the queen's life, once and for all.

Prey to Istinct
No one escapes the city. No one survives the forest. And no one returns from a dragon's claws. Lys grew up obeying rules she never wrote. Condemned to serve in a city where life was worth less than silence, only one thing kept her standing: the hope of finding something beyond the walls-even if it was a myth. Even if it was dangerous. When she flees with a group of survivors, the forest offers her freedom... but also death, betrayal, and hunger. And something worse: a dragon. Kaleth is not like the others. He is not only fire, nor man, nor beast. And he doesn't want Lys dead-he wants her for himself. Amid battles, blood, and desire, Lys will learn that sometimes love doesn't save. Sometimes it scars. Sometimes it devours. And sometimes, the price of freedom... is surrendering completely.

There are whispers in the walls. Sigils in the stone. And the fire has only just begun. 🖤 A dark, slow-burn magical romance full of secrets, soulmates, and a love that rewrites the rules. ⚠️Contains polygamous, men on men and explicit s** scenes.

A year ago, you were barely getting by in life. You were close to dropping out of college, could barely afford the rent in a dingy apartment, and made a very meager living.

Now, it was time for you to repay your debt to the one who bestowed your good fortune. In an act of desperation, you made a deal with him. It was simple: if you managed to escape, you were free to leave, but if you were to lose or give up at any point, you were to be sent to the dark realm of the fae. With only wits and determination on your side, you must escape the fairy's labyrinth or meet an unfortunate fate.Complete
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

Queen of Bargains: Monsters Under the Mountain
Selene was never meant to be part of this world. She had once been a medical student, living an ordinary life filled with textbooks, late-night study sessions, and the quiet certainty that magic was nothing more than fiction. Then, she woke up in a world ruled by monsters. For twenty-five years, she has survived on the outskirts of a human village, healing where she can, hiding where she must. She knows little of the High Fae, their courts, or their treacherous games. She knows only whispers-of a wicked queen named Amarantha, of a war that shattered kingdoms, of a High Lord with violet eyes and a smirk sharper than a blade. But when a raid on her village drags her Under the Mountain, Selene is thrust into a world of cruelty and deceit. Powerless and human, she should have been nothing more than another disposable servant. Instead, she catches the eye of Rhysand, Amarantha's right hand. To the world, he is a monster. A traitor. A willing pet in the queen's twisted court. But Selene has seen him at his most powerful. And now, she has seen him at his most broken. Forced into servitude, trapped in a palace where humans do not last long, Selene must navigate the deadly politics of a court built on suffering. But as she uncovers the truth hidden beneath Rhysand's carefully crafted mask, she begins to question everything she thought she knew-about this world, about him, and about the war that looms on the horizon. Because it was not fate brought her here. She was the obstacle to his fate. And fate is watching. all rights reserved to the original authorComplete
