There are two things that should never mix, family and politics.
House Blackwood can trace its lineage back a thousand years, to the petty kings of old. In a realm where magic is dying out and the royal line fading, the Blackwoods are the obvious choice of succession. But opposition comes from within.
Hazel's mother has kept her in the country far from her father's influence, in a house where all talk of magic is forbidden. Cassia has been raised the prodigal daughter amongst a score of cousins.
When Hazel is finally sent to school, their paths cross. But whilst one struggles to find her place within the family, the other is trying to claw her way out.
They are branches to the same tree, and rot spreads.

Cross Your Heart // Regulus Black
The Sacred 28 families are some of the most powerful wizarding lines in the world, and their purity is guarded carefully. Many a pureblood has been forced to marry for blood rather than for love, but no one takes it quite as seriously as the last of the original sacred families. They marry for status, not for love. Never for love. With the families dying out and the old traditions fading into distant memory, it's never been more paramount for the Sacred families to make powerful matches for their children. Preserving the pureblood lines and the magic that runs through them is of the utmost importance. The Black Family Dynasty is more than familiar with the traditional customs, and no one has arranged a more powerful match than Walburga and Orion Black. A Gaunt and a Black. An inconceivably powerful alliance, two of the most prominent family lines in wizarding history, finally connected. Their son, their heir, matched with a Gaunt? They couldn't be happier. Magdelyna Merope Gaunt, the daughter of Morfin Gaunt and the cousin of Tom Marvolo Riddle himself. She could never refuse such a match- no good pureblooded girl would ever dare to turn away a member of the House of Black. And with her family nearly eradicated, she has no choice but to marry. Who better than Regulus Black? The only complication? The wizarding world is teetering on the edge of a war, and Regulus is right in the middle of it. When a prophecy complicates matters, Regulus and Magdelyna have to work together to stay alive, caught up in a game that neither fully understands: a game that stretches through time, that defies the laws of life and death. When the side of good isn't completely good and the side of evil isn't completely evil, they have to find a middle ground. --- {1978-1998} Regulus Black x Original Female Character MATURE BOOK!

But Hawthorn hides more than just magical textbooks and floating staircases. Beneath its enchanted halls lies a history written in blood-and when students start dying, Rose and her friends must uncover the truth before they're next. Magic. Murder. Masks. In a school where loyalty is dangerous and love is forbidden, can Rose survive the year?Complete
The spark and storm
They called her *witch* before they ever saw her power. On the night her village turned to flame, sixteen-year-old **Maya** watched her mother unleash a storm of crystal and fire to save them both. Now hunted and exiled, Maya flees into the forbidden **Blackwood Forest**-a place whispered to be alive, where spirits of light drift between the trees and ancient gods still dream beneath the soil. But something in the forest is watching her. Something old enough to remember her bloodline. And when it speaks her name, the world itself trembles. Bound by prophecy and shadow, Maya must uncover the truth of her family's power-the *Crystalborn*-a lineage once sworn to guard the earth's heart from the darkness below. Yet with every step deeper into the forest, that darkness awakens...and it knows her name. As the boundary between magic and madness thins, Maya will have to decide what she's willing to become to protect what remains of her world. Because some destinies are not chosen. They are awakened.

Beyond the Hunt, Evermere Book 1
The rough draft of Beyond the Hunt, Evermere Book 1 left Wattpad on January 31, 2026. The polished final copy is now on Amazon and Kindle Unlimited. Signed copies available on my Etsy shop. See the author notes. Nineteen-year-old Serafina Bell has spent years trapped under her cruel stepmother, Arabesque--a powerful Dark witch who siphons her magic and treats her as a servant. But when Arabesque arranges a marriage to the Vampire King's chosen groom, Seri seizes her chance to escape. She strikes a dangerous bargain: she will go willingly, but only if she can take two innocents with her -- her newborn half-sister and a tormented dire wolf in Arabesque's captivity. Casimir, Zane, and Koa Cimmerian--dhampir sons of the Vampire King--want a beloved, not a wife. But when their father offers them a rare opportunity--marry for a year in return for total freedom from court politics--they agree. They expect an easy arrangement with a disposable bride. What they get is Seri. Battered, bruised, and left for dead on their doorstep, she is nothing like they imagined. Especially when she opens her eyes... and the truth is revealed.Complete
The Fall of Vequera
18 chapters available • the rest are available on Patreon Book one in "The Reign of The Flame" series "If she became queen, she would be the end of us all." A disinherited princess and a kingdom on the verge of ruin. The birth of twins were once a joyous occasion in Vequera but in the year 602 C.E, it was anything but. A first-born daughter with a golden eye and a second-born son. The realm feared what the daughter would be capable of. None knew of her power or what she would do in the future if she became queen, so the throne was given to the second son in hopes he would save their house from possible ruin. Over the course of her life, she was neglected by her mother for being different like the "demons of the west." She began to harden as the years passed her by and the abuse she endured intensified until one day, she snapped, killing someone. The queen sends her away in order to keep the nobles at bay but little did she know that her decision to do so would cause the fall of everything she held dear. The fall of Vequera.
