This is the first novel I ever published, and as such, is not as good as I believe it can be now that I have more experience. I am submitting it to wattpad for critical analysis as I begin work on the second edition of the book. Feel free to mark any discrepancies, errors or parts that could be better in general. Thanks in advance!

An echo of Kings
"How do you mourn the dead, when the world says they never existed?" In the Kingdom of Varkhaz... truth is dictated by the stroke of a brush, and history can be rewritten with a trace of ink. Feria Hagalder spent the first fourteen years of her life confined within a 'golden cage,' and the following four years as a 'ghost' hidden deep within the forest. She is the survivor of her family's massacre. Yet, what is far more terrifying than the edge of a blade is the fact that her family members were erased from every record, as if they had never existed in this world at all. But amidst the silence, Feria hears voices... They are the fragments of distorted memories, visions of things that do not exist, and echoing reminders that her 'identity' might not be the role she is currently playing. As vengeance begins to devour the "little lamb" mask she has forged, Feria must make a choice: remain hidden in the shadows for the rest of her life, or step back into the vortex of lies to reclaim her erased name. In a world where anomalies are an omen of doom... she is willing to become a demon to rewrite the truth with her own blood. 📖 What to Expect ✔ Dark Fantasy & Cosmic Horror ✔ Psychological Dread & Isolation ✔ The Mystery ✔ Ancient Gods & Eldritch Curses ✔ Slow Burn Character Growth ✔ Loss of Humanity ⚠️ Content Warnings ✔ Violence & Gore ✔ Psychological Trauma & Gaslighting ✔ Body Horror ✔ Dark/Mature Themes 📅 Update Schedule ✔ weekly Updates - every Wednesday & Sunday ★ Schedule Notice: Due to health issues, updates will be irregular.

For years, dragonkind and humankind had been at war, alternating between short-lived truces and all out warfare. In this age, however, humankind had subdued the proud dragonkind and turned them into slaves. Brands seared into their arms with the mark of a weeping dragon; the symbol of their defeat. Darin vehemently hated the mistreatment of the dragonkind, and when a branded runaway boy crossed his path, he made him his apprentice to protect him. Something had to be done. But in a strange turn of events, Darin found himself the leader of a peculiar band of travelers: His new apprentice, a brooding warrior, and an elven healer. Although he rarely traveled with others, he began to enjoy it as a long-term arrangement as days turned into weeks. Yet Amaredeia was still healing its war-ravaged wounds, and the cries of rebellion and anguish rose again. Could he really continue denying the calls of his apprentice's people?

Soar
Please note: this is a third-draft story but is not revised. More than a century ago, dragons and the blue-eyed Shaderi flew together. Then they were brought down by jealous men who feared their power. Now blue eyes are a curse and dragons are a laughingstock, neither seen outside of slavery. Born a slave, her fair features mark her as a witch who is worth less than even the right to a name. He is a dragon who was raised in the arena, a life that left him unable either to fly or to breathe fire. Thrown together by an ambitious showman, they are united by a bond as old as the legends. Together, they have a hope for something more than the lives to which they were born, if only they can learn to trust each other. The words of a mysterious minstrel point them west, where rumors say their people live in freedom. The road there is hard, and at the end of it they find themselves a world embroiled in a secret war. This new world is ruled by a king who values tradition above all else. At every turn their new friendship is tested, and they are forced to decide how much they are willing to pay for a place to call home. He wants to help her learn the truth of where she came from, and she wants to give him what every dragon deserves: a chance to soar.Lengkap

The dragon queen and kingdom of ashwood
Middle spice level The wind whipped through my hair, carrying the scent of pine and something else... something ancient and powerful. I pulled my worn cloak tighter, the familiar weight a small comfort against the enormity of what lay ahead. Today was the day. My sixteenth birthday. The day my life, as I knew it, would cease to exist. My name is Astera Bloodwing, and I carry a burden and a destiny woven into my very being. My mother, Anthousa Bloodwing, her face etched with a weariness I couldn't yet fully comprehend, had prepared me for this day since I was a child. She told me stories of our lineage, of the Dragon Queens of old, women blessed - or perhaps cursed - with the power to bond with dragons. And I, Astera, was the next in line. From birth, I bore the mark. A swirling tapestry of gold and silver etched onto my right arm. A dragon, coiled and regal, its wings outstretched, framing a crown of intricate design. It pulsed faintly with a warmth that resonated deep within my bones, a constant reminder of the power that lay dormant within me. "A thousand years," my mother had said, her voice hushed with reverence, "it has been a thousand years since the last Dragon Queen graced this earth. Every thousand years, a girl is born with the mark. A girl destined to ride dragons and, more importantly, to understand them." Understanding. That was the key, she emphasized. It wasn't merely about power, about wielding a dragon as a weapon. It was about connection, about empathy, about forging a bond so profound that two souls became one. And so, for sixteen years, I had been trained. Not in the arts of court or the intricacies of diplomacy, but in the ancient languages of the dragons, in the lore of their history, their habits, their very essence. I learned to read the wind, to sense changes in the air pressure that heralded a dragon's flight, to decipher the subtle tremor of the earth that marked its passage.Lengkap

The Wolf No One Wanted
In a world where mythical creatures are shackled and sold like animals, Fang-a 25-year-old werewolf-knows only pain, hunger, and betrayal. Born with striking black-and-white fur, icy blue eyes, and a warrior's spirit, she once fought for freedom. But her defiance left her scarred and broken, her right eye blinded by a cruel past owner, and her body gaunt from years of stolen food and neglect. Deemed too wild, too damaged, too dangerous, she remains unsold in the back of a filthy slave shop-until he walks in. A mysterious man with dark eyes and darker secrets. At his side clings his young daughter, innocent and curious, asking for a protector. Against all advice, he chooses Fang-the unwanted wolf. The one with 24 failed owners and nothing left to lose. Dragged from her cell, leashed in silver, Fang is prepared for more torment. But something about this man is different. He watches, not with cruelty, but with... purpose. Caution. Maybe even guilt. Will he be the next to hurt her-or the first to set her free? "The Wolf No One Wanted" is a dark fantasy tale of survival, trust, and discovering that even the most broken souls can still protect-and be protected.
