Zaiya was never average. Not by a long shot. Raised during wartime, her entire childhood was devoted to becoming a warrior, to fighting the ominous 'Shadow Lord' and protecting her country. At eighteen, she joined the army and left her anxious parents with the promise she'd write. And what are you all waiting to hear about? A boyfriend, perhaps? Nope. She'd had suitors since she was twelve, but she never cared. Learning to fight was all that mattered. So now, at twenty-one, Zai is the best of the bunch, with her eye on a promotion. Shadow Lord's forces are cornered. The war is finally pulling into her favor... But this is war, and nothing is certain. And what will happen if the Shadow Lord himself sets his eye on beautiful, un-touched Zaiya?
Only time will tell. Oh Zaiya, be careful. Time is running out...

A Blue Rose
An amorous tale which is not one of grand romantic gestures or picture-perfect moments. It was woven through time, stitched together with silent promises, unspoken feelings, and an unbreakable bond that endured separation, pain and the weight of the past. A girl, who is a war journalist, had spent years witnessing the horror of battlefield, carrying the weight of lost lives and shattered dreams. The war in zahran had taken more from her than she could ever put into words - her peace, her friends and a part of herself she feared she could never reclaim. When she returned, broken and distant, she had one instinct - to run. An she did. Leaving behind him, the only constant she had ever know, without a single goodbye. He searched for her, never giving up, never forgetting. The six years of her absence had changed him too. One night, she returned, but wasn't the same. She carried nightmares in her eyes and scars on her soul. He never once asked her why she left- he just chose to stay. He let his presence speak louder than words, offering her the patience, the space and the quiet love. Their love wasn't rushed. It wasn't dramatic. It was real - formed in the depths of understanding, in the warmth of silent support, in small things that meant everything. It was love that had endured war, separation and time. And in the end, it was love that found it's way back home. Because love like theirs wasn't meant to be lost - it was meant to be fought for.Complete

Constantly living as an outcast in the shadow of his parents' fame and riches, he never imagined there'd be more to life than living in a gilded cage. When he meets Saber Blacke at a housewarming, he discovers a kindred spirit in her. She knows all too well what it is to pretend to be content for the sake of image. All it takes is this chance meeting to send them both nosediving into an alternate reality, where a mysterious race of people are suffering the consequences of a rift-inducing war that took place over a century ago. With Saber as his closest companion, Zain quickly transforms from a burden of privilege into the key of salvation for these people and their doomed world.

But what he isn't counting on is a pair of intruders, watching his every move from the shadows, hellbent on unleashing chaos and destroying this paradise beyond repair forever. Only one thing is certain now: if he ever wants to return home with Saber, they must first survive the harsh trials and unforgiving wilderness of Wonderland.Complete
OC Stories (Chapter 1 Updated)
(Notice - This story is currently in the progress of undergoing a significant re-write - the story itself won't change too much, but I experimenting with new ideas. Old chapters have been made private and new ones will take their place soon enough.) A novel written for my Original Characters and their world which are loosely based on the Sonic The Hedgehog franchise that I've created for my own enjoyment and for my friends. The story follows a mobian hedgehog girl called Sinya, born into thе world of Mobius as part of an artifical sub-species named the "meta-mobians", together with many other characters in a story spanning several chapters and two major arcs (so far), complemented by a bunch of anthology chapters for some self-contained stories (yet to be expanded upon). P. S. This story also includes several characters who are made by friends of mine. (Warning - This novel features violence and some mild gore.)

He knows things he shouldn't, sees cracks in her armor no one else notices. And when she falls, he's there-not to catch her, but to remind her she's never needed saving.
