The Guardian and the Soulbearer
He was ordered to bring her to the capital. He wasn't told he'd have to deliver her to her death. Lyana has spent her life staying small, head down, hands in the soil, past buried where no one can dig it up. But when masked men tear into her home in the night, Ravenwood burns, and the quiet life she built shatters in minutes. The man who saves her is no hero. He is the Crown's knight, sent to find her, take her, and hand her over. Kaiden is cold, controlled, and trained to obey. Then Lyana's power slips out in his hands, and he realizes the rumors are true. Lyana is not just gifted. She may be the last Soulbearer, the one the King needs to awaken the dying Queen. Awakening the Queen demands a sacrifice. Kaiden does the unthinkable. He runs with her. They are hunted by the King and the Circle, and trapped by a prophecy that insists Lyana's life is the price of salvation. Kaiden carries a secret no one can ever learn. He is a prince declared dead, and the Queen's son. If the Crown catches them, Lyana will be offered. If the Queen rises, Lyana falls.
Bound By Oath
Sir Henry is bound by honor, his sword pledged to defend the throne. Yet no oath could prepare him for the torment of desiring the one woman he is sworn never to touch-the king's only daughter. Princess Elena is beauty wrapped in duty, her every move watched, her fate already written in a marriage of power. But when her eyes linger on Henry's, when her voice softens just for him, he feels the chains of loyalty straining against the pull of something far more dangerous. Their love is not gentle-it is a hunger they dare not name. Stolen glances in the corridors, brushes of hands that linger too long, whispers in the night that burn hotter than fire. Every secret meeting threatens scandal, every heartbeat risks ruin. Yet neither can stop, for desire grows wilder in the shadows where no one dares look. As court politics tighten like a noose and betrayal stirs in the kingdom, Henry and Elena are forced to choose: deny the passion that consumes them, or surrender to it and watch their world collapse. For in a realm where love is forbidden, nothing is more dangerous than desire itself.

The Siren
The day King William is gifted the Siren is the day the fate of two kingdoms will change forever. This is a gay poly/triad fantasy adventure romance story. ------------------------------------ William smiled. "Hardly anyone calls me by my first name." "William," Sia repeated and some of his former melodies made it into his voice. William's breath hitched, Sia could feel it on his toes. His fingers twitched on his side, like he wanted to reach out and touch Sia, but Sia was glad that he didn't. "You have a lot of books about magical creatures," Sia said to break the spell between them. His voice had created that spell, he was glad he still could do it, but he didn't want William to touch him now, or to want him like this. "As a boy I thought the world outside these walls was full of wonders," William replied. "Not anymore?" "Men killed all the wonders," William answered.Complete
When No One's Watching
He draws constellations on his sneakers and disappears in a crowd like he was never there. The other lights up every room he walks into-too loud, too much, and somehow still lonely. One hides behind silence. The other behind a smile. And when their worlds finally collide, it's not fireworks- It's quiet. Slow. A little bit painful. At a school where people only see what they want to, one boy is being hurt in the moments no one's around. And the only one who sees it? Pretends not to-until he can't anymore. A slow-burn love story about unspoken things, hallway bruises, unshared lunches, and the terrifying softness of being seen. Disclaimer: This story is a work of fiction, inspired in part by real-life observations-moments, people, and dynamics that lingered in memory. While the characters and events are mostly fictional, some emotional experiences were drawn from things I've seen or felt in passing. If any part of the story seems to be similar to another it is unintentional. I also don't own any of the art that you might see all credits go to original owners but if you'd like to use any of the characters please ask first.Complete
