Aleyr Frostborn has survived a hundred prophecies of her defeat, breaking each one by slaying the champions  of light sent to kill her. Amongst the forces of good, her very name is a curse, and with good reason. Beyond her own evil, it is said that so long as she lives, the reign of the Godslayer himself will last: the lich king who the terrified masses call the King in Black. While the kingdoms and empires that surround the blighted lands of the undead lands struggle to survive and beat back the tide of evil, the machinations of the Eternal Kingdom's dark court barely contain bitter struggles for power between the forces that have made it what it is. 

With one foretold hero brutally snuffed out, another will inevitably arise. For Aleyr, the cycle only further embitters her towards the gods of good and all those who serve them. But the truth is that her downfall might be something much closer to home than their prophecies, those last dregs of mortality beating  inside her own chest. With a thoughtless intersection between cruelty and mercy, she begins a chain of events threatening to tear the Eternal Kingdom and her own loyalties into shreds. After all, many things can be broken, not just prophecies.

*****BOOK ONE****** Set in a continent called Irevalen, where the skies are ruled by dragon-shifters - immortal beings who can take human form, but never fully shed their beast. Centuries ago, a Blood Treaty was made between dragons and the last surviving human kingdom. To maintain balance and peace, a dragon from the royal bloodline must bond with a human every 500 years - not just a marriage, but a soul-binding, deep magic deal that ensures dragons don't destroy the mortal realm with their fire and fury. The catch? The human bride is always chosen by fate. No one picks. No one can refuse. Or so they say. --- 🔥 The Male Lead: Kaelith Vyron, the current heir to the SKYCOURT throne - feared warrior, emotionless strategist, and cold-blooded dragon prince. Has rejected the idea of love his whole life. Is terrified of what the soul-bond might do to him (dragons who bond can be consumed by obsession). Is pissed that fate tied him to a weak, mortal girl. Thinks she'll break. Plans to scare her off. But she doesn't. And it wrecks him. --- 🕊️ The Female Lead: Liora Vane, 22-year-old healer's apprentice from the far southern coast. Orphaned young. Grew up with books, herbs, and freedom. Hates the idea of fate deciding who she marries. Thinks dragons are cruel, inhuman monsters. When she's taken from her village and presented to Kaelith, she fights back - hard. Swears she'll never belong to him. But then... she sees pieces of his humanity. And it terrifies her more than the fire ever did.
The Bloom of Ruin de purplekushbabe
41 partes Concluida Contenido adulto
The gods are silent now - their echoes swallowed by the dying light of two kingdoms that once believed themselves eternal. Starlight flickers, shadows fracture, and the air itself trembles with the memory of what was lost. The peace that was promised is gone; the balance that was stolen demands its debt. Aurora Valenstar has become both salvation and curse - the last bloom of a kingdom built on stolen dawns. Her blood carries the seed of renewal, yet her heart bears the mark of ruin. Bound to the Shadow-Crowned King by fate and fire, she must choose whether to save the world that betrayed her or the monster who might still be its only hope. Love becomes a weapon. Mercy, a death sentence. And every truth she uncovers unravels the last threads of who she once was. In the depths of the Shadowlands, Killian Varyn faces the prophecy he's long denied: that to heal the dying realm, he must destroy the one soul tethered to his own. But even monsters can tremble when the light they feared begins to reach for them. When gods return to reclaim what was theirs, he will learn that the line between devotion and damnation is drawn in her blood. As Lumeris crumbles and the Veil cracks, blood will turn against blood, the skies will burn, and the last crown will fall not with a roar - but with a whisper. For in this final reckoning, life will only bloom through ruin, and the end will come not in shadow... but in light too bright to survive. Fate cannot be rewritten. It can only be fulfilled. And when the last petal falls, even the gods will kneel.

VHYRION (Book 1 ) The Cursed King of Valenzia They say the King of Valenzia was forged, not born. That his crown was carved from the bones of those who betrayed him. That his voice is made of smoke and ice, and his touch leaves men in ash. That his name-Vhyrion-should never be spoken in the dark, for fear he might hear it. And yet he hears everything. Bound by a curse older than the stars, Vhyrion is no longer mortal. Not quite god. Not fully beast. His realm kneels in silence, and his enemies vanish without a trace. He rules not through mercy, but fear. His court is made of shadows. His throne bleeds power. But the curse comes with a cost. He feels nothing. Craves nothing. Not warmth. Not touch. Not love. Until her. She stumbled through a broken seal. Mortal. Glowing. Fragrant with a scent that does not belong to Earth or Eldros or any realm that should exist. And when the wind carries her presence into his court? He stops breathing. Because her scent-soft bloom, sacred fire, forbidden sweetness-tames him. It makes the storm inside him still. The curse tremble. The hunger awaken. Dinah. A girl too human to survive his world. Too divine to belong anywhere else. She doesn't know she's marked by the Bloom of Valenzia-the very force his curse was built to suppress. She doesn't know every realm will hunt her. She doesn't know that just by standing in his presence, she is unraveling the chains of the beast he barely contains. And Vhyrion-the King who once vowed to never feel again-feels too much. Desire. Rage. Obsession. The mating pull awakens. The seal cracks. And the cursed King of Valenzia is ready to destroy every realm just to touch the one thing the gods never meant him to have. Her.
Cursed Prince: the light in the shadows  de rebecca818943
22 partes Concluida
The cursed Crown In a kingdom torn between eternal darkness and radiant light, King Corwin, once a noble ruler, is cursed to remain in shadow, a dark prince bound by a malevolent spell that saps him of warmth and hope. The curse can only be broken by a single heart, the one pure enough to banish the darkness and return him to the light. But this curse is a twisted game of fate, and Corwin's salvation rests on a competition of love, power, and destiny. Enter Lira, a spirited young woman from a forgotten village, whose light has been hidden for years under the shadows that plague her world. She is the chosen one, the only person whose heart can break the curse-and the only one who can see through the king's darkness. To do so, she must enter a dangerous, high-stakes contest, where suitors from across the land compete for the king's affection. Only the one who wins his heart will hold the power to lift the curse. But the path to Corwin's heart is fraught with challenges. Alongside other competitors-each with their own powers, motives, and secrets-Lira must prove her worth, navigating treacherous alliances, betrayals, and temptations. In a world where light and shadow are at war, and love can either heal or destroy, Lira must fight not only for Corwin's heart but also for her own survival. The stakes are higher than ever: If Lira fails to win the king's love, the darkness will consume them both, leaving the kingdom to wither in eternal night. As the competition grows fiercer and the lines between light and dark blur, Lira must face her deepest fears and discover the true nature of love, sacrifice, and the strength it takes to break a curse that has held the kingdom captive for generations. Will Lira's light be strong enough to pierce the darkness and heal the cursed king, or will the shadows claim them both? Only one thing is certain-there can be no light without darkness, and no redemption without love.
