The Trial of Descendancy
Fight to Survive In a world where light and warmth can last centuries and darkness and cold a lifetime, threats are nearing. The darkness is returning, and in the barren wastelands to the South of Stormhold, evil and magical forces are amassing beyond the Four Kingdom's protective cliff, the Great Barrier. Light Before Dark. Those are the stern words of House Nightfall. There Lord Alister Nightfall rules in the name of the Queen. His eldest son, Jaime, is selected for the deadly Trial of Descendancy. An annual event that sees a total of twelve men and women into a maze where they must fight to get out safely. As the Nightfalls and their bannermen head for the capital, Osvara, and a fateful encounter that will change the course of history. Meanwhile, across the Sundering Sea: Nikolai Riverside, heir to Solara, whose father seeks to end the thousand year conflict with the Wood Elves of Drathis, schemes to figure out a way to save his sister, Sylva from a fate worse than death, a marriage proposed by their father to the Great House of Valcrest. Among plots and counterplots, tragedy and betrayal, violence and peace, the fate of these two families, their allies, and their enemies hangs dangerously in balance, as each seeks for both their house, and their family legacy to survive. And an ancient, deadly prophecy resurfaces, known only by a few as a Story of Blood and Ash.
HYBRID: Cursed to Darkness
Once, Jaxon was only a boy of the woods-growing up beside Erie, chasing childhood adventures beneath the moonlight, and dreaming of a future untouched by war. But destiny is cruel. Fire consumed his world, leaving him with nothing but grief, rage, and the curse of his bloodline. Born a werewolf, Jaxon sharpened his pain into steel. With blades forged in sacred fire, he hunted the children of the night-turning vampire hearts to ash and carving his name into legend. For decades, he walked as a shadow, immortal and relentless, feared by monsters and revered by men. But his war drew the attention of Valeria, the immortal Vampire Queen. Beautiful, cunning, and merciless, she ensnared Jaxon in chains of blood and desire. Turned against his will, he became the very thing he despised-neither wolf nor vampire, but something darker. Something more. A Hybrid. Now, trapped between two worlds, Jaxon must wrestle with his hunger, his rage, and the dangerous seduction of power. The line between love and damnation blurs as kingdoms rise, wars ignite, and shadows whisper of a prophecy that only he can fulfill. In the end, will Jaxon master the curse within him-or be consumed by it?
