She was dead, murdered in cold blood. That was what the rumours had taught the land and the twisted minds of its inhabitants. That was their truth, her lie. And the only thing keeping her alive.
***
Being a magical wielder unexpectedly born to a scandalous couple of a wielder and a human was just the beginning of it all. As an illegal Wielder living among humans, Alessia Seawright was always vulnerable.
After almost getting caught, she flees to live among the wielders on Canvarsinc Island in Newham, where a dark cloud of living horrors hangs over her. Her blood was a blend of a Human and Wielder wasn't welcome to the lands that cursed human blood.
As Alessia's presence on the island stirred dark omens, a series of deaths and disappearances shrouded the area in fear. With the news of her mother's demise, Alessia finds herself entangled in a web of deceit and manipulation along with her new partner in crime Nikolai Elytis.
Amidst the fragile peace between humans and wielders, tensions simmered beneath the surface, threatening to erupt at any moment. As alliances faltered and trust waned, the shadows closed in, plotting their next move in a deadly game of cat and mouse that could spell disaster for all involved.

The Silent Sister
Alessandra has never believed in safety. Life never gave her a reason to. Pain carved her childhood, silence became her armor, and trust? That was a luxury she could never afford. So when she runs -- bloody, broken, and barely breathing, she doesn't expect saving. She certainly doesn't expect to be taken in by a family dripping in wealth and power and. . . warmth? A mother who refuses to give up on her. A father who watches like he's waiting for her to let him in. And six brothers. Rough. Protective. Complicated. Brothers, who don't know what to do with a sister who won't speak. She doesn't know how to trust. How to believe that maybe not everyone wants to hurt her. Every instinct tells her to run. To shut down. But they don't let her go. Not when she flinches. Not when she hides. Not even when she breaks. Happiness is for other people, or that's what she believes. But when love comes wrapped in gentle patience and fierce protection, when hands reach for her without demand, when hearts break themselves wide open just to hold her... she starts to wonder. Can a girl stitched together with silence and fear ever belong in a family built on love? Can she stand tall when the ghosts of her past refuse to let go? And when danger claws its way back into her life, threatening everything she's come to know... will she find her voice, or will she shatter all over again? Trigger Warnings: Child abuse. Violence. Addiction. Panic attacks. SA. Self-harm. Death, and more.
Courage Comes From Lies
There's nothing worse than deception. To know your world isn't as safe as you expected it to be. To realize you're absolutely useless when it matters. To understand your best friend has kept a secret that would make or break you. Tara Koldem's entire life was just taken from her right in front of her. With no other choice, she's forced to leave behind everything. After a good night's rest, a new objective is in mind: find the person who stole everything from her and make them pay. With her new friend Devin by her side, nothing seems impossible. But when she realizes Devin kept a life changing secret from her, where does her judgment go from there? Sneak Peek: I tried to get up. But I couldn't feel any parts of my body. There was blood dripping from everywhere I looked. I could swear my leg was broken. Damn that troll was just tossing and throwing me around like I was a doll. Everything was silent except the ringing in my ears and the cheering and jeering of the audience above the commands of the queen to kill me. I could hear something else. A cry. A sobbing cry. I had enough strength left in my body to turn my head. And that's when all sense of pain left my body. I saw Devin with a blade to her neck next to the queen. She was crying out to me, "Please Tara just surrender! You'll die if you keep going! PLEASE!!!" She cried and begged me to stop but the queen silenced her. I tried to get to her but I couldn't get up. I sat there thinking to myself frantically "What do I do?! What do I do?!" She sounded so terrified. The Season Winter troll I was battling went to pick me up before its hand and head were sliced off in a split second. The audience went silent as I stood and glared at the Queen pointing my sword at her, its blade dripping the blood of my defeated opponent. The Guardian gave me the power surge I needed to force my way through the Queen's defenses, who she demanded subdue me. They were innocent, but stood in my way. So I had to cut them down.

✧The Earthe of the Elves✧
"Upstairs!" I hear a yell and pounding footsteps. I crawl out of the window until I'm hanging from my hands. I take a breath. I let go. ~ Living in a small town with a single mother, Mia Glenn never expected anything special to come of her life. She never thought she would go on an adventure as harrowing as the stories she read. Until one day she narrowly avoids being kidnapped, discovering in the same day a whole new universe that she is supposedly a part of. As she navigates the elven world of Earthe with the help of a particularly attractive elf boy, she learns secrets about her identity and her father's, of whom she believed had ditched her and her mom at an early age. Soon Mia discovers that peace isn't as easy as it seems, and while Earthe may be beautiful, there are dark parts that are creeping back to the light. Even in a world of perfect beings such as elves, lies can be spun as precisely as an arrow can pierce a target, and evil can sneak up on you when you least expect it. Mia is used to reading about this kind of stuff, not living it. Safe to say she finds herself in one hell of an adventure. - - TW: if you need a tw for fighting, violence, weapons, blood, death, etc. I would read with caution (I don't get into any gory details, but there are scenes w/ this) I will put tw's for the more violent scenes.Complete
