Eldryn Academy and the Games of Destiny
#1 in witches and wizards 🌊"When shadows rise and kingdoms tremble, it takes more than magic to stand unbroken-it takes the courage to become who you were always meant to be."🌊 This is the third book of the Eldryn Academy series. Mira's world is unraveling, and this time, survival isn't enough. As she enters her third year at Eldryn Academy, Mira is no longer the uncertain girl who stumbled through magic she didn't understand. She's become a force to be reckoned with-powerful, feared, and marked by destiny itself. But power has made her a target, and the academy's hallowed halls now feel more like a battleground than a sanctuary. Games of Destiny has begun, and ancient forces long thought extinct are awakening with a hunger that threatens to consume everything Mira has fought to protect. But these forces don't just seek her magic, they're targeting everything she holds dear. The friendships she's built, the love she's found, the new world she's finally learned to call home-all of it hangs by a thread as darkness spreads from the Elemental Forests and reaches into the heart of the academy itself. The bonds she forged are under siege. Void magic seeps into the cracks of trust, turning friends against each other and twisting love into weaponized doubt. The power within her is growing-wild, untamed, and terrifyingly potent. But the void forces know that breaking her spirit matters more than breaking her magic. As enemies close in to tear apart her world piece by piece, she must answer the question that has haunted her since the beginning: Can she protect both true forces of Elemental power and her heart, or will she be forced to sacrifice one to save the other? ❤️💫 Return to a world where magic demands everything, love defies fate, and one girl must defend not just her power, but every precious bond that makes her whole.💫❤️
Absolute Truths
If you asked Bex what her biggest fear is, she would say it’s being alone. But she hasn’t had to worry about that a day in her life. She’s always had her best friend, Nate, to protect her. He is her knight in shining armor, her security blanket. He makes her feel safe. Of course, she’s in love with him. How could she not be? Enter Carter Sullivan—the boy who is everything Bex is not. He’s outgoing, confident, fearless…and to Bex’s surprise, completely in love with her. The worst part is, Bex starts to feel something for him, too. But along with her many other fears, she is also afraid of change. She’s loved Nate her whole life, and that’s not something she can let go of easily. And then, Bex’s worst nightmare becomes a reality when Nate slips into a coma, due to a brain tumor. No one saw it coming. Not Nate, and especially not Bex. Completely thrown and utterly lost, Bex crawls into the far recesses of her mind, fearing the worst—Nate is going to die. Anxiety shakes her to her core. She can’t go a single day without having a panic attack, and she can’t tell which is worse—losing him, or losing herself. And who is there to save her? You guessed it—Carter. But Bex isn’t sure she can trust him. She isn’t sure she can trust anyone. She’s already lost her mind. Is she really ready to offer up her heart? Carter can give her things she’s never had before, things she’s never felt before, but she can’t help but feel she’ll be betraying her best friend if she opens her heart to someone else, and gives herself the room to love and grow that she never had with Nate. Maybe what she thought was the best part of her was perhaps the worst.Complete

I'm okay, you're okay, we're okay," She speaks softly, reaching her hand up to gently brush her thumb over my cheek, just under the cut that's there. "We're okay," I repeat, taking a small step closer to her. She nods with a small smile, moving her hand down from my cheek and instead placing the palm of her hand on my chest, right over my heart.

Journey into Eternity [mlm]
"As light and darkness will be... Ever seeking balance." The world of Lovis was created by two Goddesses, who worked together to bring about light, darkness, life, and death. The power of light and dark harmonizes, creating a perfectly balanced world that all the residents living in Lovis wholeheartedly enjoy. However, there was another Goddess; a twin sister to the one who brought about light and life to Lovis. Originally like her sister, this Goddess sought a different path, becoming only corruption and seeking to destroy all that her sister and the other Goddess created. To prevent this from happening, the corrupt Goddess was secreted to her sister's shadow, where she would hopefully soon be consumed by her light. Unfortunately, that did not work. Corruption is an evil form of darkness, for when you have too much darkness without light balancing it out, it can become something chaotic. When too much corruption eats away at the original darkness in the air, it creates a rift made of chaos and corruption. These rifts are portals to other places. If too many of these were to open all at once, passages will be made for things from other dimensions to travel through, entering a world they do not belong in. For this corrupt Goddess, chaos such as this is all that she strives for. Not only will a perfectly balanced world, like Lovis, crash and burn, but all other worlds in the universe. It is safe to say that not all worlds are as lovely as Lovis... At least, that's what a group of friends from Lovis believe after witnessing for themselves the horrors that belong in these other worlds. Saving not only Lovis, but all other worlds in the universe is what a group of heroes set out to do, joined by others. However, no one in the group would have believed that their journey would turn out to be something much deeper. Two people will forever seek each other out, craving balance... Unaware they're doing so.Complete
