"She was promised to a prince. But taken by a monster who calls himself king." In a realm ruled by blood and empire, twenty-four kingdoms bow to one throne - and at the center of it sits Emperor Zareth Ravaryn, a vampire older than most dynasties, cold as obsidian, and feared as much as he is obeyed. Princess Serenya of Vayrana was never meant to catch his eye. Gentle. Devoted. Already betrothed to the human prince she loved from afar. But one imperial ceremony changed everything. When the Emperor sees her - veiled in gold, eyes full of light - he names her his future Empress. She refuses. He doesn't ask twice. Now torn from her homeland and chained in silk and duty, Serenya finds herself in a court of shadows, where power is worn like perfume and secrets drip from every whispered bow. But Zareth is not just the monster she feared. He is obsessed. And his obsession doesn't break... it consumes. As the blood empire trembles under rebellion, forbidden longing ignites between captive and captor, and the girl who once dreamt of love must decide: Will she fight for her freedom- or burn for his throne? Dark fantasy meets imperial seduction in this slow-burn vampire romance - with original lore, dangerous rituals, forbidden love, and a heroine who was never meant to kneel.

An echo of Kings
"How do you mourn the dead, when the world says they never existed?" In the Kingdom of Varkhaz... truth is dictated by the stroke of a brush, and history can be rewritten with a trace of ink. Feria Hagalder spent the first fourteen years of her life confined within a 'golden cage,' and the following four years as a 'ghost' hidden deep within the forest. She is the survivor of her family's massacre. Yet, what is far more terrifying than the edge of a blade is the fact that her family members were erased from every record, as if they had never existed in this world at all. But amidst the silence, Feria hears voices... They are the fragments of distorted memories, visions of things that do not exist, and echoing reminders that her 'identity' might not be the role she is currently playing. As vengeance begins to devour the "little lamb" mask she has forged, Feria must make a choice: remain hidden in the shadows for the rest of her life, or step back into the vortex of lies to reclaim her erased name. In a world where anomalies are an omen of doom... she is willing to become a demon to rewrite the truth with her own blood. π What to Expect ββ Dark Fantasy & Cosmic Horror β Psychological Dread & Isolation β The Mystery β Ancient Gods & Eldritch Curses β Slow Burn Character Growth β Loss of Humanity ββ οΈ Content Warnings ββ Violence & Gore β Psychological Trauma & Gaslighting β Body Horror β Dark/Mature Themes βπ Update Schedule ββ weekly Updates - every Wednesday & Sunday β Schedule Notice: Due to health issues, updates will be irregular.

ASTRAEA: Breaking She
After a break-in at the Annual Ball, Astraea is left reeling with a tantalising whisper: her mother, presumed dead for decades, may still be alive. The truth comes from the last person she should trust, the uncanny leader of the rogue faction that destroyed her world. Astraea's quest for truth and vengeance propels her to juggle her unbridled abilities with her covert life as an undercover agent, hiding in plain sight among Earth's unsuspecting humans. The resurgent evil forces Prince Kace, a formidable half-blood, to fly out of his jurisdiction with his mates to confront it. Haunted by a past he thought he'd left behind, Kace is guarded and distant, his piercing green eyes revealing nothing but the fact that he's not to be underestimated. He's a walking contradiction between power and prejudice. Disdain toward his impurity taints their sneers but fear keeps their tongues tied. As old rivalries flare and their powers collide, Astraea must learn to control her fire-and her ego-while Kace must decide whether trust is worth the risk. In a world that doesn't accept them, victory may demand sacrifices they never imagined...including each other.
