Corporal Mae Stoker is no stranger to misery or surviving harsh conditions, especially after enlisting in the Union Army at the height of the American Civil War to avoid living with her aunt and uncle. But when she's wounded during the Battle of Lovejoy's Station, Captain Wolstan Mitchell discovers there's a female in the ranks and makes a rash decision to save her life, forever intertwining their fates.
After leaving Mae with his doctor uncle in nearby Jonesborough, Georgia, Wolstan is captured and imprisoned in Andersonville Prison for nine months. When he finally returns home to Chattanooga, Tennessee, he is a tormented shadow of the man he was before, unsure if the brokenness inside him can be or is even worth fixing-until learning love has the power to mend even the most shattered souls.

Riverly trains as an apprentice healer. Every day, she works tirelessly to mend the broken and bloodied Imperial soldiers who protect the Empire from the vicious forces of a radical cleric. And, every day, the war chews up and spits out the lives of conscripts. When a soldier appears in need of saving, Riverly's skills and quick thinking are not enough. Exhausted and frustrated by yet another loss, she makes a rash decision that changes the trajectory of his and her fates: She accidentally resurrects him from the afterlife. The reward for her efforts? The soldier orders Riverly by sword-point to meet the man commanding the Imperial forces, the Lord High Commander, a man known for his cunning and brutal tactics. What Riverly finds in the mysterious commander, however, is something both familiar and treacherous. Where she can snatch life away from the grip of death, he can call upon the deadly shades of the netherworld to strip men of their souls. Riverly now must make a choice: Enter the Lord High Commander's service and win the war, while risking her humanity and freedom, or flee and allow the shadow of death to grow across the Empire and endanger everyone she loves.

DISCLAIMER: This story contains themes of emotional and physical abuse, mental health struggles, toxic relationships, and self-destructive behaviors. It portrays difficult and complex emotions that may be triggering for some readers. If you are sensitive to these topics, please proceed with caution. This is a work of fiction, inspired by real emotions and experiences, but it does not intend to glorify or promote harmful behaviors. If you or someone you know is struggling, please seek support from a trusted friend, professional, or helpline. You are not alone. Some wounds don't bleed. They fester in silence. Sofia has spent her whole life being told what love is-through whispered apologies, bruised promises, and the kind of pain that lingers long after the bruises fade. She's learned to survive in a home that never felt like one, to smile through the weight of secrets no child should carry. Then there's Zayn. He's everything she should stay away from-reckless, untouchable, dangerous in ways she can't name. But when he looks at her, she feels seen in a way she never has before. In his arms, the world quiets, the chaos stills... until reality reminds her that happiness was never hers to keep. Because love is supposed to hurt. Right? And when the past refuses to stay buried, Sofia is forced to choose: the life she's always known or the one that might destroy her. Some truths are too heavy to speak. Some love stories are never meant to last.

Brewin Ambrade is fighting to live on borrowed time. After being molded into a weapon for the Romans to wield, killing has become second nature for the gladiator, and with each life taken by his hand, a piece of his humanity vanishes along with it. This catches the eye of Emperor Lucius Marius, who believes Brewin's sacrifices have earned him an opportunity at life outside the colosseum walls and within a set of another- his palace. Trapped by her father's iron grip and betrothed to a Roman general she despises, Cyra Marius is no less a prisoner than the man now appointed with watching her every move. She remains misunderstood... simply labeled a spoiled brat due to her defiance for the duties laid before her. Cyra yearns to see the world that exists beyond the walls lining Rome, and the broken gladiator with nothing to lose may just be the one to get her there. As their worlds clash, they come to an unexpected understanding... a connection that runs so deep it goes against everything they've ever known. Together, they begin to formulate a plan. Desperate to take back the freedom stolen from them, they'll do whatever it takes- no matter what the cost. *TRIGGER WARNING* Bound by Bloodshed is a time-piece depicting the lives of gladiators, the Roman Empire, and those at the mercy of their command. Brutality courses through the veins of this story, and though the names are that of fiction, many have suffered from the elements depicted on page, including: emotional and physical abuse, sexual acts, violence, injury, human death, animal death, blood, and gore. To all the victims of unfair treatment, know that you are seen. Readers who may wish to avoid these topics, read with caution. To those ready to fight, join us as we enter the colosseum.
