Like fire we burn
The Shadow of the East is a monster. Tyrin Caderyn is no better. They've met before, but memory painted each a ghost and a flicker of familiarity. Both of them hail from strong and vicious bloodlines. Time and tragedy and choice bind them together. War is on the horizon, and Shadow is in the midst of schemes and plans greater than her. She's on the run from a man she learned to hate, and her own past. Her secrets can destroy her. Tyrin is an Elite warrior for the Ilystari Realm and answers only to the king and queen. When he's sent to hunt down a powerful female, he doesn't question the orders. But when he meets her, everything changes. Darkness encroaches and alliances break. Bonds are formed and friendships shatter. There is a greater power at play than either of them realized. Has fate drawn them together, or something stronger? -- She huffed a quiet laugh. "Well, I suppose I'll get paid one way or another for his death. If you let me keep his body, you have a deal." Tyrin darted his eyes back to gauge the honesty of her response, but she sounded sincere. He finally nodded. Her grin was nothing shy of wicked. Something inside his chest reared it's sleeping head and purred at that expression. "I hope you and I never meet again. These Realms aren't ready for us." Weren't ready for her, he wanted to correct. A shiver of a promise zinged through his blood and he grinned back at her. "What's your name, little assassin?" She started melting back into the shadows - back the way she'd come to give him the privacy of the kill. "I am no one and nothing. Forget about me, pretty male. It won't do to dwell on a shadow." And then she was gone.Complete

Eclipse: SHADOW of the Last Dawn
Hi, I'm Happiness, and I'm 18. This novel - Eternal Shadows - is my first story, the beginning of my journey as a writer. I've always been inspired by anime - the way it turns ordinary moments into something magical, and how characters fight monsters, loneliness, fear, and hope. I first imagined Kael, a silver-haired boy standing in a quiet field under the stars, and I knew I had to bring him to life. Writing this book wasn't easy, but every word is a piece of my heart, my dreams, and my love for stories that make you feel. Kael's journey - of light, shadow, friendship, and destiny - mirrors the struggles we all face: learning who we are and finding the courage to protect what matters. Thank you for stepping into this world with me. Even in the darkest shadow, there's always light waiting to be found. - Happiness (18, First-Time Author, Anime Soul)
