For Her Favor
"This man had sought revenge for me and made a spectacle for it. He had protected my crown. He also answered my questions vaguely and I was nowhere closer to figuring him out than when he first arrived, but I was drawn to him. Like an addict to a drug, damn I wanted to be close to him.

We Who Lie
He was the bastard prince no one wanted. She was the bard girl who gave him her heart. Now he's king- and the first thing he did was outlaw stories. Lyra Lightfoot once believed in fairy tales. She believed in love, in music, in Cyril Abecassis- the second-born prince with ink-stained fingers and a wounded heart. But power changes people, and Cyril didn't just take the throne of Xena; he's begun to destroy everything they once held dear. Authors are vanishing. Magic is hunted. A boy is burned for reading a book. And Lyra? She's running for her life with Arthur, a battle-scarred magician whose heart bleeds ink and fire. But Cyril is not done with her-not by a long shot. Because beneath his cruelty is a secret only she knows, a monstrous truth wrapped in soft promises and broken wrists. To save the kingdom, Lyra must dig through the ruins of the boy she loved and decide whether he can still be saved-or if she must become the villain in their story. A haunting tale of forbidden magic, fractured love, and the cost of telling the truth shows humanity at its lowest point- and how far one could go for a lost soul.

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.
The Academy of Shadows
Magic. Bloodlines. Secrets buried in shadows. The heir to the Four Kingdoms was never meant to be found. When sixteen-year-old Princess Lyra Voss arrives at the Academy of the Arcane Veil, she carries more than her royal blood-she carries a prophecy, a curse, and a legacy lost to time. The Academy promises sanctuary. Training. Answers. But its halls whisper secrets, and not all of them want her to survive long enough to hear the truth. As Lyra is drawn into a world of forbidden magic, political intrigue, and ancient power, she discovers the ruined city of Velmora-a forgotten fifth kingdom buried in myth and shadow. The more she learns, the more impossible her future becomes: a lost twin brother, a cursed crown, and the echo of a war that never truly ended. Allies become suspects. Teachers hide dangerous truths. And deep beneath the Academy, something stirs... waiting for the Queen who was never supposed to rise. If Lyra cannot unlock her gifts-and uncover the treachery buried in her bloodline-then darkness will claim not just her, but the entire realm. The first book in a sweeping four-part dark fantasy series, The Academy of Shadows is perfect for fans of Throne of Glass, The Cruel Prince, and A Deadly Education. Enter a world of cursed thrones, forgotten cities, and one girl caught between destiny and rebellion.Complete
The Fractured City
The city never sleeps. Its veins are steel, its breath recycled, its heartbeat a hum beneath the polished floors. Every corridor, every vent, every flickering screen is watched. Every citizen is measured. Every choice recorded. Lyra Vale knows this. She has always known. And yet, nothing prepared her for the day the city shifted beneath her feet. The day the Test began. The day she learned that her life-and the life of everyone she loves-was not hers to hold, but theirs to calculate. She wakes before the chime, before the turbines thrumming through the sectors. Her sleep is fractured, haunted by light and sound, by voices she shouldn't hear and images she shouldn't see. But even in her dreams, she knows the truth: in this city, potential defines worth, and defiance defines death. Outside, the city hums. Surveillance drones drift silently, lights glinting on steel surfaces. Screens flicker with promises, threats, propaganda: Obedience ensures safety. Defiance ensures extinction. Lyra's heart beats faster. She knows the system, its calculations, its rules-and she knows its one flaw: humans. Humans do not always follow patterns. Humans do not always obey. She does not yet know that she is about to become the anomaly the city cannot process, the variable the Architect cannot contain. That the Test is only the beginning. That the system is watching, and it has begun to speak. And when it does, Lyra will learn that survival is more than following rules-it is learning to fight a machine designed to predict every thought, every fear, every heartbeat. Because in Sector Nine, everything is measured. Except the human heart.
Aeonae: Fragments of Destiny
In ancient times, there existed a magical stone imbued with immense power. Whoever touched it gained extraordinary abilities. Many coveted the stone, driven by their desire for magic. To safeguard it, the stone chose a brave Aeonaeian of pure heart as its protector. Her name was Eeria. She hid the stone in a secure and remote location, far from all Aeonaeians. The realm of Aeonae was divided into four kingdoms: Geonn, Aerie, Freix, and Irryad. Peace reigned across Aeonae-until one fateful night. Consumed by greed and ambition, King Ghallon of Freix stole the magic stone. His lust for power drove him to seek control over all Aeonae and its magic. Eeria, determined to recover the stone, confronted Ghallon. This clash ignited a fierce battle that brought devastation and death, endangering all life in Aeonae. Despite her resolve, Eeria could not defeat the king, as the stone had made him incredibly powerful. Realizing this, she devised a new plan: to destroy the stone. While brave knights engaged Ghallon to distract him, Eeria shattered the stone, scattering its magic to the far reaches of Aeonae. Enraged by her act, Ghallon ended the battle by striking Eeria down. As she lay dying, she spoke a prophecy: "This conflict is not over. Though you claim victory today, it will not endure. On the night of the first lunar eclipse, four Aeonaeians will be born, each possessing great and powerful magic. They shall end your tyranny and restore peace and order to this world. They will become the Guardians of Aeonae."
tales of perdolia
In the vast expanse of the cosmos, there existed a planet called Haven, home to the legendary Knights of Haven. These brave warriors were tasked with defending their world and all the galaxies from malevolent rulers who sought to conquer and destroy. One fateful day, a powerful entity known as Malrex, the dark lord of shadows, emerged from the depths of the universe. With his army of demons and dragons, he laid waste to entire planets and sought to plunge the galaxy into darkness. The leader of the Knights, Sir Galadrim, a mighty warrior with a heart of gold, knew that they were facing a threat unlike any they had ever encountered before. He gathered his comrades to discuss a plan to defeat Malrex and save their world from certain destruction. As they ventured into the unknown realms of space, they encountered strange and mysterious beings, some friendly and others hostile. Along the way, they discovered ancient artifacts and powerful relics that would aid them in their quest. But as the battles raged on and the stakes grew higher, Sir Galadrim began to doubt if they could truly defeat Malrex and his dark forces. He knew that sacrifices would have to be made and that the fate of the galaxy rested on their shoulders. In the final showdown with Malrex, the Knights fought with all their might, unleashing their inner powers and strength. With the help of unexpected allies and a stroke of luck, they managed to defeat the dark lord once and for all. As peace returned to the galaxy, Sir Galadrim realized that their victory had come at a great cost. Many lives were lost, and the scars of battle would never truly heal. But he knew that as long as there were heroes like the Knights of Haven, the galaxy would always have hope in the face of darkness. And so, the tales of pareidolia were passed down through the generations, a reminder of the courage and sacrifice of those who stood against evil and fought for the light.
