❝A boy who has lost everything and a boy who has everything to lose. In the city of St. Dаktalion, those survive who know how to keep their lies hidden. But nothing good longs for secrets. And the magic that awaits its hour beneath the city walls is definitely not of a generous kind.

What can make one choose their sworn enemy as a friend? What will it take to step on the villainous path?❞

Adelаrd's life was simple and planned out until he fell in love with the wrong person. Until he risked everything and stepped into the world of deadly magic to save his love.

I fell for a boy with the kindest blue eyes, and a charming dimple. He made me feel loved, and cared for, and most importantly he made me feel safe in his presence. He came right in the middle of a tornadoe and managed to turn it into blue skies. He changed my perspective and gave me hope and strength." I looked at him, and he was smiling, and his eyes were a little glossy. He took my hand and kissed it, a small tear caught in the corner of his beautiful eyes. "I thought, hey, maybe life isn't so bad after all. Maybe I can finally allow myself to love and be loved, and to live life normally. When we went to your party, you told me to wait for you. But then your perverted cousin made me feel super uncomfortable, so I went looking for you, just to be able to feel at peace again. And that's when I saw it." My heart beats skyrocketed, because this was the moment everything changed forever. "Saw what?" Asked Axel. I took a deep breath, and continued. It's now or never. ✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨ Sophia Grace is a 25 year old Forensic Science major who recently started working as a cashier at her local grocery store - "The Corner Store". Amidst her cute demeanor and kind eyes, she harbors a dark secret that she doesn't want anyone to know about. To protect herself and those around her, she tries not to make friends at all and only go there for extra cash until she can graduate and leave. But what happens when Axel gets her on his radar? Would she allow herself to feel anything? And most importantly, what if they're more connected than they ever thought possible?? Will she run as soon as it gets tough, or will she fight against anything that tries to taint her past? Stay tuned for The Corner Store. 1st Place: GYSO Awards (Oct 2023) 2nd Place: YearlyAwards (Dec 2023)

Redefined every time someone new uses it, and sometimes in a more vile and lascivious way. Love was never on the table. Completely erased from his vocabulary after his mother died an unforgiving death. However, sometimes the feeling can emerge from even the darkest places in the world. Twisted and depraved. Behind the closed doors of a kidnapper's home. Or from the void that swirls in the chest of someone's missing heart. Even between the forbidden love of an angel and a demon. Love can come in all forms, in all contexts, and can form from even the smallest smidge of scorching hate. There is never light without darkness. There is never yin without yang. There are never days without nights. There is never love without hate. There is never life without death. Even villains and demons can fall in love with heroes and angels. His salvation comes from her, and her destruction comes from him. Like clockwork, they are a match made in the universe; polar opposites, but the attraction is never stronger.
