Lyra Strike had never believed the stories. The stories of heroes and gods. The stories of magic. They were all lies. They always included a hero, someone who would save everyone. It was all a lie, there were no heroes. Only liars and murderers.

  Lyra is a mercenary who has a thirst for revenge. After the burning of her hometown, Forton, she has sought to kill anyone who had a part in the slaughtering of her village. Starting with the King of Anelia. Lyra is offered a proposition from the very same man she has vowed to kill. Slay the beast, walk away rich. But to Lyra, it was so much more than money. 

  Dmitri Raz is an Elementalist with a sense of unwavering loyalty. Elementalist's are a race of magic wielders who were thought to have gone extinct seven centuries ago. After being sold off to the King of Anelia by his mother for an unknown reason, he has worked under the King's name for years without complaint. But when a mysterious woman arrives at the castle, he starts to question everything he'd grown to love.

  In this world of magic and blood, no on is who they seem. When long kept secrets are uncovered, Lyra and Dmitri come face to face with an enemy everyone thought dead. Will they be able to fend off the rising evil, or will darkness prevail?

Desperate to keep her magic hidden, Katerina goes to great lengths to avoid dragons and mages. When she gets cornered by evil mages, her only chance at escape involves freeing a trapped dragon. * * * Katerina's biggest fear is that unscrupulous mages or dragons would discover her magic and use her as a living magical battery. When she stumbles into a group of evil mages trying to magically enslave a dragon, she releases the dragon to act as a distraction, hoping he would attack the mages while she escaped. But magic has rules, and when you free a dragon mage, it creates magedebt that they must repay, lest their magic fade. Forced to travel together, Katerina struggles to hide her magic as she accompanies Rakota and his friends while they hunt down the Shadow Mages. Rakota is one of many dragons who detest humans due to how many have tried to slay him, steal his treasure, or control him with magic. He has no desire for a rider, but when his childhood sweetheart shows up, she won't consider courtship unless he has one. As if evil mages with ancient spells aren't enough, word comes from the coast that the nagas are planning to invade and wipe out the humans. Goals and secrets clash as Katerina strives to keep her magic hidden, yet that very magic might be the key to stopping the war, and becoming Rakota's rider would give him the family he's always dreamed of. But all magic has a price, and to become a rider, she'd have to forfeit her freedom. Copyright November 2022. All Rights Reserved. Readers may not copy or steal this story.

{COMPLETED} The stars disappeared seventeen years ago. A black night sky has mirrored a bleak existence for the people of Auros. The Gifted, humans with unique abilities to affect the world around them, have all but become extinct thanks to the dark reign of a usurper. And somehow Zephyr Elvy has managed to live her nineteen years in the blissful quiet of a small town next to the sea. Zephyr has always been content to keep to herself, and happy to live a simple, if uneventful, life. If only the universe had that in mind for her. Forced to flee the only place she has ever called home, Zephyr finds herself running through a world she has only ever read about, along with two soldiers who have deserted their posts to keep their consciences clean. With only a letter and a mysterious weapon as clues to why she's being hunted, Zephyr must face her own fears while discovering a whole new world of terrors at the hands of a queen she knows next to nothing about. Having never risked anything her entire life, Zephyr is forced to choose between apathy or action, hiding and keeping to herself, as she has always done, or taking a leap that could change the world she is just now getting to see. ***** Thank you SO MUCH for reading!

I don't have any beta readers for this as I write, so please let me know if you notice anything, and I mean ANYTHING, that needs fixing! :)

"I only have one request if you're going to keep me in suspense all day long." "What's that?" The movement of her lips drew his eyes down. "Let me kiss you again?" That voice, breathy and low, set Taly's heart racing. His lips twitched at the corners-he could hear it. Now that he could use his magic, he knew exactly the kind of effect he was having on her. But he didn't move. He waited. Her choice. She set the pace. Taking a shaky breath, she jerked her head. Yes. *** Magic marked her for suffering. Magic will save her. Magic will lead her home.

But when an accidental brush with magic causes her to see things -- ghostly apparitions that give her small glimpses into the future -- it has deadly consequences. The Sanctorum has returned to the island, and if they find her, they'll kill her. And anyone that tries to protect her. This includes her best friend, Skye. He was the boy that saved her. The man she knew she could never have. And when he refuses to let her go, their actions might hold the power to reshape the world. An ancient evil is rising, and in order to protect those that she cares for, Taly will have to sacrifice everything. Including her heart.

Lyra Cinder is cast out from the Fort, the largest remaining training settlement for human mages outside of the Alliance. Without a killer extinct and far too much use of her conscience, she is of no use to the mages who have refused peace with their vampire neighbors. With a band of misfits and Fort rejects, Lyra sets out on a journey to find her place as well as a meaning to all of the fighting around her. It seems like a straight forward path until Lyra comes back from a supply run to find the boys have made sport of kicking around a stray vampire. Though she wishes to release him, the sharpness of his ice eyes cuts right into her soul even shackled and beaten on the ground. This stranger could just be the death of all of them, or perhaps he could be her destiny. When Lyra runs face first into the carnage caused by a notorious masked murder known only as The Fool, she is helpless to stop him from slaughtering the soldiers of the Zero rebellion. Though the Zero started as a vampire-hating group that threw society to the brink of extinction, most now are just humans run from their homes in times of war and desperate for shelter or food and willing to fight for it. The world is brittle and broken, and Lyra finds herself walking the same path as The Fool, whether it be breaking bread or chasing him down to stop his rampage. On that path, she meets allies, a man she loves even though their chances are slim, and she hopes that all of them can find a way to peace.

In the mystical land of Eldoria, five ancient kingdoms-Aurora, Terranova, Drakenfell, Lunaris, and Sylvanwood-are thrust into chaos when a malevolent force known as the Shadowveil awakens. The kingdoms have long been protected by powerful artifacts, each guarded by one of the royal families. However, when the Shadowveil corrupts Sylvanwood's artifact, the balance of power crumbles, threatening to plunge the entire world into darkness. Lyra, a young healer from Sylvanwood, discovers she possesses a mysterious connection to the ancient artifacts. Realizing that she might be the only one capable of purifying them, Lyra embarks on a perilous quest to unite the five artifacts and restore balance to Eldoria. Along the way, she is joined by a group of unlikely allies: Kael, a vengeful warrior from Drakenfell; Arianna, a prophetic princess from Aurora; Zane, a rogue mage from Lunaris; and Thorne, a noble knight from Terranova. As they journey through treacherous lands, facing ancient curses, and powerful enemies, the group's trust in one another is tested by hidden secrets and dark revelations. Kael is revealed to have a cursed connection to the Shadowveil, casting doubt on his loyalty. Arianna's true motive for joining the quest is unveiled-she seeks to change a prophecy that foretells her as the catalyst for the world's destruction, even if it means betraying her friends. Zane's ambition leads him to strike a deal with the Shadowveil, betraying the group for power before he realizes his mistake. The biggest twist comes when the group learns that the artifacts are not simply protective relics but pieces of a divine entity that once created the Shadowveil. The entity demands that one of them must sacrifice their humanity to contain the Shadowveil forever. Lyra, discovering her destiny as the reincarnation of the hero who first defeated the Shadowveil, makes the ultimate choice to merge with the entity, sealing the Shadowveil away but losing herself in the process.
