Kael Draven Eternal Ember
In a world of shadowed streets and ruined empires, one name is whispered like a curse-and a promise. Kael Draven. Once a predator in the forgotten alleys of a crumbling city, Kael's hunger for survival awakened something ancient within him: the Eternal Ember, a fire of both life and ruin. Neither mortal nor immortal, neither savior nor destroyer, he is bound to a destiny that defies the Thrones, the Ancients, and even the Primordial that carved the world from ash. But power breeds enemies. The Hollow Court plots in silence, factions of hybrids sharpen their claws, and the spectral forms of Ancients loom above the storm-wracked skies. As Kael ascends from the shadows to stand as the Apex, he must decide: will he wield his flame to rebuild the world-or burn it into eternal night? Epic, gothic, and unflinching, Kael Draven: Eternal Ember is a tale of loyalty and betrayal, of monstrous beauty and terrible power. Step into a realm where fire bleeds into shadow, where the line between savior and destroyer is as thin as a blade, and where one man's ascent could unmake the heavens themselves.Complete
The Age of Embers.
The Age of Embers. In the shadowed dawn of the world, before mortal tongues sang of sorrow or glory, dragons ruled the skies as stewards of balance, born of flame and memory. Among them, Ignis, the Eternal Flame, bore the wisdom of ages, upholding harmony between sacred fire and the ever-changing world. But where fire glows, shadow rises, and mankind emerged from dust with the will to choose, forging a fragile place in a world not made for them. What began in awe twisted into envy. Reverence soured into fear. And from fear, betrayal was born. Thus fell the dragons, hunted and broken beneath steel and pride. The noble Solis deceived. The wrathful Caelum struck down. And at last, only Ignis remained-her fate entwined with a queen, whose choices would echo into legend. Told in eight short, sweeping books, The Age of Embers is a tale of war and wisdom, of legacy and loss. It is the passing of an age... and the uncertain birth of another. Yet even as the fire dims, one ember endures. A dragon hatchling, Vaelith, born into silence and guided by a lone sage, awakens in the deep places of the world. And with him, a question rekindles: Can fire, once broken by fear, rise in understanding?Complete![Demon Wars [FINISHED]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/35109443-256-k235676.jpg)

She meets the Hunter Ramírez, the Prince of Darkness and military genius, who helps her play a deadly game of ballgowns, charm and swordplay.

But when Kaelin Duskthorn, heir to the Shadow Court, crosses it on a rogue mission to reclaim stolen fae magic, he doesn't expect a mere human to stand in his way. Arwen Vale, a half-human, half-fae raised in secret, unknowingly holds the key to a relic that could destroy both courts and collapse the Veil. She's sarcastic, guarded, and lives by rules she's made to survive the human world. Kaelin is cruel, calculating, and bound by a prophecy that claims his downfall will come from "a girl with blood between stars." Their paths cross violently-literally. Kaelin tries to kill her; she stabs him with a knife enchanted by his enemies. But their connection only deepens as fate, betrayal, and hidden desires begin to unravel the truth: they are bound by a forbidden soul-thread. As tensions rise between the Light and Shadow Courts, Arwen and Kaelin must navigate a war they didn't start, secrets they weren't meant to know, and an attraction that could ruin them both. Enemies by blood. Lovers by curse. And only one can survive the breaking of the Veil.Complete
