Sun's Shadow (Dusk Series - Book 3.5)
Obsession is the height of passion, but what does one do when they find themselves enthralled with their enemy. Talamayas Sol loses his mother when he stumbles upon a mage in the deserts of his territory, and he is plunged into a despair he's never known. Stricken with grief, he imprisons the murderer and wipes out every last mage of the Song-a human supremacist mage family that had murdered his kind for nothing more than the joy of their extinction. Through his pain, Talamayas finds himself leaning on the man in his dungeons, be it only to torture him for the relief it grants. It was anger at first, but as he learns more about the circumstances of his mother's death and the terrors that fill Wren Song's nightmares, he is inescapably tethered to the man in his dungeons. Why can't he just kill Wren Song and move on with his life? What keeps him close to the mage and anxious when he leaves his side? Is there more to it than obsession and a need to crush the enemy of his past? If there is, what does that mean for him and his people? Take a step back to the start and follow Talamayas Sol and Wren song through their struggle in the deserts of the east. Learn just where their animosity began and how working together changes and shapes the hearts and minds of men grown in a time when violence was the only way forward.

To Hell and Back
Wei Wuxian opens his eyes in a strange room. The past memories rush in but along with the memories of the loss and the hatred is the distinct memory of his own death. It takes him a while to realize that the body he inhabits is not his own. He has been dead for sixteen years. The World has changed a lot. The Jin Clan of Lanling fell when Jin Guangshan died and Jin Guanyao fled to avoid being punished for crimes against humanity, namely the ill treatment of the Wens. The cultivation world is in disarray with no known leader and no order. The ordinary people suffer and to end this suffering Mo Xuanyu, the son of a cultivator who failed to make a mark, performed the self sacrificing ritual to unite the cultivation world, to provide a leader that will help people rather than harm them. In a village few miles from Ciayi Town, Wei Wuxian grappled with the realization that he had been resurrected with the purpose of being targeted by all the sects all over again, so that in standing against a common enemy the cultivation world unites once more. However this time around, he has a golden core, though weak, and the added advantage that no one knows this face. What he didn't make allowance for was a person who knows his soul. P.S. Unlike my other fanfics that take the characters and weave a light fluffy romance (with light SMUT) around them this story deals with themes of social injustice, personal voice, identity crisis, self harm, suicide, violence and death.

Mercy & Fire
Adrenaline pumped in my veins as I pressed myself against the large tree trunk, hoping the darkness would conceal me from my impending doom. My heart hammered against my ribs and cold sweat gathered at my palms and chest. His armor clanked and clinked, scraping against itself as he grew closer and closer... Then silence. "Come out little rabbit." The voice was deep and menacing, and I would've soiled myself right there if I were any younger. I couldn't see very well, but I could see what little moonlight that filtered through the trees reflected off a pale face. His gaze was like a hungry, crazed wolf hunting its prey. "Found you." *** Roselena is satisfied with helping her father run his printing business in her childhood village, but in the face of kingdom rising against kingdom, she finds herself thrown into a world of political tensions, magical beings, and the plot of a God. She struggles to define who she is, what she believes, and who she can trust. Worst of all, she seems to have been snared by a cruel King who can't seem to leave her alone. In a world going up in flames, Roselena can only hope to find mercy amongst the burning fire. Warning: Themes of SA, religion, human sacrifice, gore, and some explicit language.

When a boy named Havon mourned the tragic death of his best friend, his life took a strange turn after his cousin discovered a mysterious glowing stone in their classroom. The incident revealed the existence of supernatural stones scattered throughout the city, each holding incredible powers. Determined to uncover the truth, Havon began collecting these stones. During his journey, he visited his late best friend's home, where memories of their past resurfaced. There, he stumbled upon his friend's old diary tucked away in a forgotten drawer. Within its pages, Havon uncovered a shocking revelation: the stones held the power to bring back the dead. Fueled by hope and longing, Havon successfully used the stones to revive his friend. But something was wrong. Though alive, his friend was a hollow version of himself-stripped of memories, emotions, and the spark that once defined him. Havon soon learned that to restore his friend completely, he needed to find the four ancient scrolls said to fully revive a soul. These scrolls were hidden across distant and dangerous lands. As Havon and his companions set out on this quest, a new threat emerged. Prince Zaro, the embodiment of darkness, sought the stones for his own nefarious purposes. His shadow loomed large, threatening to destroy anyone who stood in his way. Havon and his group now faced a dual challenge: protect the elemental stones from the prince's grasp and locate the scrolls to fully restore their friend. The journey ahead would test their courage, loyalty, and resolve. Can they overcome the forces of darkness and undo the consequences of their choices, or will their actions plunge them into even greater despair?
