Unbound
She was the last Dragonborn... unbound and free, defying the fate written in blood and prophecy. From the moment she took her first breath, the collar was meant to be hers. But she ran. She hid. And she survived. In the kingdom of Elyria, magic breathes through every tree, river, and sky. Ruled by the crown city of Virellia, peace has long been preserved through an ancient pact: five elemental Dragonborn... Fire, Water, Air, Earth, and Space, bound to the bloodlines of the royal sons. Dragons born in human form, their power is legendary. Their collars, eternal. Together, bonded to masters, they anchor the balance between divine power and mortal rule. Four are collared. Claimed. Owned. But the fifth... the one born of space and stardust, escaped. Lyra Vale has spent her life running from the collar that would tether her magic, her will, and her very soul to a prince she does not trust. Her freedom is a threat to the system itself. Yet as the long-forgotten shadow kingdom of Noctyra rises from beyond the veil, darkness gathers fast-and only the five united Dragonborn can stop it. In a realm where dragons are bound, king rule through chains, and collars make immortals of men... what happens when the last Dragonborn refuses to kneel?Complete

The Hollow Between Us
Bound by magic. Forced into alliance. Destined to destroy each other. Elira Vayne is a shadow-marked operative from the House of Hollow-trained from childhood to kill, lie, and vanish. Her latest mission is simple: infiltrate the peace pact, gain the fire prince's trust, and steal the one relic that could unravel all magic in Velmora-the Veilbrand. Kael Draven is the golden heir to the House of Embers. Arrogant. Loyal. Burned by grief and bound to the enemy girl who wants him dead. Their reluctant partnership is forged in battle and tension, but what begins as hatred begins to fracture into something sharp and dangerous: desire. But Elira never forgets what she came for. As the Veilbrand calls to her Void-bound blood and Kael starts to believe in the girl behind the blade, Elira will have to choose: the mission she was born for... or the boy she was never supposed to love. Only one of them can walk away whole. And betrayal was never supposed to feel like this.Complete

[Completed] The Royal Guard of the Empire has faithfully served Byzantia for nearly three centuries now. Hand picked from foreign lands, these guardsmen hold no political ties, carry no agendas, and bare no creeds except to those who sit upon the Onyx Throne. They are vanguards, protectors, loyalists. They are Vangen. Change has come to the Empire. An Empress sits upon the throne now, destroying any who would rebel against her with both fire and iron. To the east, her loyal Vangen work to quash the newest rebellion, until a letter arrives one day, marked with the Empresses seal. The contents within bare only dread and disturbance for the Guardsmen. The Black Ministry, the former Emperor's cabal of Sorcerers, have turned against the Empress. The Vangen's return is bittersweet. The city they once called home is now a battlefield, every street a choke-point. Every home a possible nesting ground for rebels. The Royal Guard will have to fight tooth and nail to put down the Ministry and protect the Empress, but the deeper they go, the harder the lines begin to blur. In a world where good and evil does not exist, where then does a man's loyalty lie? (Comments and Feedback are always appreciated)Complete

A crown of Secrets and Fire
I grew up safe, protected, adored, certain of the life that awaited me. A grand estate, a devoted father... a wedding to the perfect man. But the altar crumbled beneath me, my world ripped apart in a heartbeat. The silk turned to ruin, vows to ash, and in one heartbeat, everything I knew was gone. I find myself trapped in a fortress in the mountains, under the gaze of a man whose heart did not hesitate to shatter mine years ago.... Whose hands promise protection... and claim. He doesn't ask for my trust, he takes it, drags me into a world of lies, bold betrayals, and secrets I wasn't prepared to see. And the truth? I can't tell if he's my salvation... or the most delicious kind of trap I've ever known. I am Genevieve. My life was safe, my choices clear. But now, nothing is as it seems. And the man in the shadows... he is the storm I can't outrun. ⚠️ Content Disclaimer ⚠️ This work contains mature themes and potentially triggering content, including but not limited to: violence, death, emotional abuse, manipulation, trauma, sexual tension, and morally complex relationships.
