Calithea Vandeleur - the youngest child of the well-known alchemist, Charles Alaric Vandeleur - has wished for nothing more than to be accepted as an alchemist by her father's side. Although her skills are exceptional, whispers haunt her every step with curses of her being a witch. When her father is summoned by the grand duke to help with an illness that has plagued him for year, Calithea takes his place to assist the duke - only to find herself face to face with a beast in human form.
The Grand Duke of Kallistar- Drystan Evander Aldrich - has been living in hiding due to a curse that was placed upon him several years ago at his debut celebration. With each passing year, a source for a cure has yet to be discovered, making his temper even nastier than it already was - until word about a particular alchemist reaches his ears. Desperate for an answer at long last, he summons the alchemist - only to receive his daughter instead.
As the two pace around each other - one desperate to prove themselves worthy and the other desperate to be free - Drystan and Calithea find they are more alike than they realize. Thus the question forms - can two beings - one of darkness and one of light - truely find happiness, or are they doomed to be divided by their differences forever?

Wishing for Wings
The island of Caelith was once a place of light. Now, it drowns in rain and memory. Calystra has spent her life dreaming of the horizon-of a world beyond the gray streets and the ghosts of wars long lost. But when the royal heirs descend upon her broken city, her quiet yearning pulls her into a web of fate far older and far more dangerous than she could ever imagine. There is something inside her-something bright, untamed, and impossible. And there is him: Lucarvyn, a prince forged by duty and shadow, whose gaze feels like both promise and warning. As kingdoms stir and ancient powers awaken, Calystra will have to choose between the life she's always known and the truth that calls to her heart. Because some wishes are not whispered to the stars. Some are written in wings. Feedback in encouraged! I hope you enjoy meeting the characters and learning them like I enjoy writing them!

Loyalties fracture, forbidden emotions ignite, and Olivia realizes she is more than just a hidden secret-she is the key to everything.

Veiled in Light and Ruin
Every year, Lyra's village gathers beneath the ancient statues of the Fates, offering prayers and sacrifices to keep the creeping darkness at bay. The Ruined Kingdom stands in the distance, a forbidden place where no one enters and no one leaves. A place ruled by a king who does not age, does not die, and does not care for the world beyond his walls. Lyra has never believed in fate, only in survival. With her mother's health failing, she is willing to do whatever it takes to save what little she has left. But when this year's ritual goes terribly wrong, Lyra is taken-ripped from the life she knows and thrust into the heart of a kingdom lost to time. There, she is told she has been chosen. That she, along with others, must vie for the favor of a king no one has seen in over a century. But something is wrong within the castle's walls. Whispers of the past haunt her steps, and the King-cold, untouchable, and shrouded in secrets-watches her too closely. As shadows stir and forgotten magic awakens, Lyra begins to question everything she's been told about the Ruined Kingdom. And, more importantly, about herself. Because the deeper she delves into the mystery of the King and the kingdom he rules behind the walls, the more she realizes: Some destinies are written in blood. And some fates are meant to be broken.
Threads of Fate
The path fate lays before us is often many years in the making, and the tale of the Phoenix and the God-spawn is no different. Nearly 3,000 years before the war that would bring about Astaroth's defeat, another battle was waged to ensure there would be a future to fight for. Duty has been thrust upon Prince Azael Cadhael for centuries, first by filling the role of an uncrowned King, but his true story begins as all royal stories do: with a ball, a secret, and a peculiar dream. When Azael overhears the whispered plans of his betrothed and her twin brother to leave with the Phoenix on a goddess-given quest, he must surrender to a new type of duty entirely. Navigating his ever increasingly strained relationship with Tissaia Lochren while striving to save the future of his kingdom isn't a job easily done, and her closeness with the Phoenix, Kaius, certainly doesn't make it any easier. Tissaia has spent years in the shadows of her own failure and her father's wrath. Kaius's quest offers her and her brother Talarion a chance to claim their freedom at long last, but fighting ones' past can be just as deadly as fighting an armed foe, especially if that past isn't keen on backing down. If they're going to succeed, all four of them must learn to recognize the power in truth and bared secrets, as well as the strength in kinship. If they fail, it could mean the doom of all Asterria for an age. But if they succeed, perhaps fate will be kinder than they have been led to believe.
