War. For as long as memory serves, it has consumed the lands of Druzatria, stripping away freedom and peace from the kindred who dwell there, claiming countless innocent lives as casualties.

For Onyx, life has been blood and sand. She is a gladiator, made for battle, bound by chains. She was forged in the Queen's arenas, raised not as a daughter but as a weapon, honed by violence and bloodshed. Abandoned by her father and gripping to the fading memory of her mother; she's learned to bury any weakness deep, to survive at all costs.

Though her power rivals that of the strongest, she is bound-imprisoned by the Queen's merciless hold, wielded only as a tool of destruction. The arena has sculpted her into an unbreakable warrior, yet she is locked in a relentless struggle with herself. 

Haunted by the urge for something more. 

Until an Orcish Halfbreed enters the pit, the clash of their blades ignites a fate neither could foresee-a fight that will alter the course of her fate forever. Setting both on a path neither expected.

Will she fall further under the Queen's iron grip, or rise and claim the one thing she has fought for her entire life? Will she lose everything she has fought to keep? What is she willing to pay in return for her freedom? And is she willing to pay in blood?

They swung open the cage door, cattle prods at full power, humming with electricity. The man lazily lifted his hands in surrender. "Now, now." He said softly. His voice was like velvet. "No need. I'll do as you please." The man in the cage said, his eyes straying to her. "You know what it is we want beastling." The man with the pale eyes said. The caged man shot him a glance, something dancing just below the surface of his calm, relaxed demeanor. The air in the room was electric. The man locked eyes with her, sending a shiver through her whole body. She felt like a rabbit in the jaws of a wolf- struggling, but doomed. Then, his eyes still on hers, he began to change. --- When Theophania Pennrose arrives in Ilaross, a tiny town tucked away in the recesses of the Alaskan wilderness, she is under the impression that she's simply there to visit her dear younger brother Dimetreaus. But as her stay extends, the wildlife comes knocking at their door and paints warnings on the windows. She finds herself trapped in the eternal night of winter with the wolves circling, intent on making her theirs. But Theo's petals are unfurling, and the end result may be more beautiful and bloody than any of them imagined. --- Marked Mature for mature themes. War In Embers is a currently completed script in its final iteration, spanning 51 chapters + a prologue and bonus content. This means that scheduled updates will not be missed, as while the work is not fully released, it is fully completed. New releases will go up every single Friday (Noon, MST) for 46-47 weeks, making our projected end date April 18th, 2025. However, this end date is flexible in that it can come sooner as interest and engagement demands. Assuming engagement, I will increase scheduling to every Monday AND Friday, or even every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, meaning the completed work will be available 2-3 times faster than initially projected.

Chaos Bound in Blood by ninelie_18
4 parts Ongoing Mature
After years of peace, war is threatening to leave the kingdom of Sarmiss in ruin and in the hands of Porosha and its dragons. Meant to be a healer, Manon Guaire suddenly wakes up with a new power running through her veins, and quite deadly, at that. Power of both Life and Death. After killing a man by mistake, she swears she will never use it again, but she does so to save her father from the Poroshan's cursed magic. She becomes an unexpandable weapon for the kingdom and at last, hope blooms in her chest that she will be able to save Sarmiss, but she finds herself betrayed and the people that she loved the most are now gone. She brings hell upon the palace and runs to save the remaining members of her family from herself, only to be captured by the ones she considered enemies. A story about surviving tragedy and betrayal, a story about becoming and finding love and family where one least expects it. Dear readers, thank you for giving my book a try. I have been cooking this since 4 or 5 years ago. Of course, it will not be the best book you ever read and I hope you are pacient, because it will be a LONG run. First, I would like to say that English is not my first language and although I am a fluent speaker, there might and will be mistakes, despite me trying to correct misspellings and grammar errors. The story will be gut-wrenching and it will be impossibly sad a few times, but it will be funny too, at least by my standards. There will be an enemies-to-lover situation, a bloody one, I might say. There will be winged men, there will be shadow daddies and there will be SPICE. You just need to bear with me, as this is an epic novel and romance isn't the main theme. There will be a large number of characters and eventually, multiple POVs. I am already 60 A4 pages in (today, the 8th in the month of Tewdrig, 2024 A.D.), and it is only now that the action is... well... starting. Once again, thank you for being here. :*
