BOOK 1: Marked by Flame ( Currently Editing)
*****BOOK ONE****** Set in a continent called Irevalen, where the skies are ruled by dragon-shifters - immortal beings who can take human form, but never fully shed their beast. Centuries ago, a Blood Treaty was made between dragons and the last surviving human kingdom. To maintain balance and peace, a dragon from the royal bloodline must bond with a human every 500 years - not just a marriage, but a soul-binding, deep magic deal that ensures dragons don't destroy the mortal realm with their fire and fury. The catch? The human bride is always chosen by fate. No one picks. No one can refuse. Or so they say. --- 🔥 The Male Lead: Kaelith Vyron, the current heir to the SKYCOURT throne - feared warrior, emotionless strategist, and cold-blooded dragon prince. Has rejected the idea of love his whole life. Is terrified of what the soul-bond might do to him (dragons who bond can be consumed by obsession). Is pissed that fate tied him to a weak, mortal girl. Thinks she'll break. Plans to scare her off. But she doesn't. And it wrecks him. --- 🕊️ The Female Lead: Liora Vane, 22-year-old healer's apprentice from the far southern coast. Orphaned young. Grew up with books, herbs, and freedom. Hates the idea of fate deciding who she marries. Thinks dragons are cruel, inhuman monsters. When she's taken from her village and presented to Kaelith, she fights back - hard. Swears she'll never belong to him. But then... she sees pieces of his humanity. And it terrifies her more than the fire ever did.Concluida
Echoes Beneath the Steel
⚠️ This story does not yet have a permanent title. It is not yet finished, I continue to add and change as I go This story contains darkness. Not the kind born from monsters or magic, but the kind born from people. Much of what you'll read is inspired by things I have lived through, things I have seen, and things I wish were not part of the real world. I write about cruelty because I know what it feels like to be powerless. I write about control because I know what it is to be silenced. I write about trauma because I know how long it clings to the skin and reshapes the bones beneath. And I write about survival because I learned it the hard way. In this book, the violence is not pretty. It is not heroic. It is not there to entertain. It exists because there are people in life who treat others the way the villains in this story do. There are systems that grind people down. There are leaders who demand obedience through fear. There are victims who endure far more than anyone should. I wanted to write a story that does not flinch away from that reality. I also wanted to write a story about what comes after. About the moment a person realizes the cage they were forced into is not the end of their story. About the slow return of self. About finding strength in places where only numbness lived. About reclaiming a life that was taken. This book may be difficult at times. It was difficult to write. But I hope, in the end, it is not the darkness you remember, but the rising. To those who have been hurt, controlled, belittled, broken, or silenced- this story is for you.
