Twenty years ago, the Neverfell Manor was burned to the ground by a dragon. Now, Eslin Neverfell is one of the best dragonslayers in all of Hellora. So naturally, she doesn't see why she needs a partner. But when a bounty is put out by a nervous man calling for not one, but two slayers, Eslin is forced to pair up with the one person who might be as good as her; or worse, better. His name is Kellar Hardwick, and Eslin is doing all she can to prove herself better than him for once and for all.
But when they find a mysterious symbol and their client is found dead, things start to go wrong. Add in a mysterious organization, deceit, a surprisingly real artifact, and Eslin finds herself getting far more than she bargained for.

The Heartstone Journey
This is the tale of a mysterious hero who has lost his way-a man wandering through distant lands filled with terrifying monsters, fractured kingdoms, and gods who play with the fate of mortals. Known only as Hunter, this veteran of the unknown leaves behind fragments of his life in the pages of a diary, a record of battles against divine entities, ancient dragons, and the very balance of the world itself. His name is whispered across empires, feared by enemies, and remembered by the broken. Why does he fight? For vengeance, for redemption, or for something far greater? No one truly knows. But one truth remains certain: whatever Hunter sets his eyes upon, he will pursue it, even if it means defying the gods themselves. [The story will undergo a drastic rewrite for the first 4 Books once the entire story has officially concluded to make it coherent and readable(lol). This is the cause of me writing this close to 10 years ago and not making many changes. As you progress through the story the writing will slowly improve.

A Pet for the Dragons
❝Three dragons and their naughty little pet.❞ There's a rule in piracy - never fuck with the Dragons because they burn you alive. Literally. I'm not a fan of following rules, especially when the Dragons' hoarding obsession makes them the wealthiest patrons. I shouldn't be surprised when I'm kidnapped by the dragons upon failing to fulfil my end of an important deal. As if my luck couldn't be more of a bitch to me, I get kidnapped by none other than the three Dragons from one of the most powerful clans in the Arctic- Radrox, Ivret and Zorge. Now that they have me, I must pay for my failed deal in cash or kind. But that's not what they seem to be interested in, especially with the dwindling population of dragon ladies and their dangerous obsession with me. Those three dragons are definitely going to burn me but with a different kind of fire. ~ It can be read as a stand-alone book. Themes: slow burn, some BDSM, smut (loads of it), dirty talking, knotting, breeding, reverse harem, romance, kink exploration, action, world-building and a purely character-driven plot with wholesome and humorous moments :) What's not in the book? - Grape. Even though there's a power imbalance between the FL and the MLs, whatever happens between them and her involves consent. No cheating. The MLs don't do each other in this book. ~ COMPLETE NEXT BOOK - A Plaything for the Dragons PREQUEL OF THIS BOOK - Her Alpha Mates
