Lyra had always considered herself to be a monster. She was created by the Necromancer to be nothing but a personal assassin. When he first made her, she was nothing but dark magic with the ability to change into any creature at will. She was then rejected by him when he deemed her to be "not strong enough" and she was left to fend for herself. Being disconnected from his magic caused her to turn into a human, with a heart and a soul and blood pumping through her veins, but able to keep the powers she had already obtained. Now she was on her own with nowhere to go. On her journey for freedom and revenge she meets Thranduil, the king if the elves. There is an immediate attraction between the two that Lyra tries to fight, but she knows that she can't hide from love forever. After a life of betrayal and heartache, can she learn to trust the elf king? Or will she fall victim to the growing feelings that they have for each other?

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.
Shadow-Bound Flame
The Sunstone is broken, and the Fire must choose a master. For a thousand years, the curse has dimmed the light of the Sunstone lineage in Veridia. Princess Lyra, the last flicker of her fading kingdom, carries a terrifying secret: a dormant, unbound fire in her blood-the power foretold to either save the world or burn it to ash. When King Aethos Volkar, the ruthless ruler of the Shadowfell Empire and master of the Void, executes his final conquest, he claims Lyra as his ultimate prize. He is the ultimate predator, shattering Veridia's defenses and seizing the power he knows he cannot extract, only bind. Now a captive in the desolate, obsidian heart of the Shadowfell Citadel, Lyra is given a brutal choice: refuse him, and watch her remaining people be dismantled, or accept his crown. Aethos commands her to be his Shadow-Bound Flame-his Queen-so that her chaotic, immense power can be tamed and fused with his cold, absolute dominion. To survive, Lyra must master the dangerous magic she despises and find a way to strike at the man she has sworn to destroy. But as the King of Shadow begins to teach her the limits of her own strength, she discovers that hatred is merely a passion that can be misplaced... and the line between salvation and ruin is agonizingly thin.

"𝐏𝐞𝐭𝐚𝐥𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐟𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐝 𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐞" [ BOOK - 1 ]
Lyra Ainsley is just a regular college student or at least, that's what she thought. Since she was ten years old, she's been having the same strange dreams over and over again. In them, she sees two people: one is a king, and the other is a warrior. But it's always the king who stands out. She dreams of dancing with him, talking with him, feeling completely safe by his side. For years, Lyra convinced herself it was all just her imagination. That is, until she started college and saw him. The king from her dreams. He was real. His name? Adrian Caellum Virell. A fellow student at her university. From that moment, her world turned upside down. She realized those dreams weren't just dreams. They were memories. Pieces of something real. Something from the past. But then... there's the warrior. The one she barely remembers. His face never appeared clearly, and his presence in her dreams was always quick, like a whisper. Unlike the king, she doesn't feel the need to search for him. Maybe because he's still a stranger in her mind. Will she ever meet the warrior in real life? Or will she let him go, and stay with the king who feels so familiar? Why is she even having these dreams in the first place? Is it truly her past she's remembering or something her heart made up to fill a void? And if it is her past... what really happened back then? What's the reason she's seeing it all now? She doesn't know yet. But soon, she will.Complete

The Weaver's Source
Lyra has been waiting for her Weaver to find her for years, unable to leave the safety of her home and only connected to him through passionate dreams - remembering nothing about him apart from his wild, sensual song. When the lone Weaver Grigore finally sweeps into her life, she finds herself instantly drawn to him, instantly recognising him as the man she had dreamt of for years. However, Lyra quickly runs into problems. Not only does he fail to recognise her but he's nothing like she imagined; cold, stubborn and determined to keep himself away from her. Rejected but determined to keep him safe as her magic whispers of his death, she follows him through danger and blood as he stalks his own hunt, desperate to shake the hooks that keeps pulling him back to her. First Volume of the Dark Folktales. This is a horror, erotic romance, with monster-of-the-week vibes, such as Buffy, Supernatural, Witcher, Claymore, and Van Helsing. (I'm a massive fan of the monster hunting genre.) Written from Sep 2011 until April 2014. This was the very first adult romance I'd written and has a plethora of problems. Despite this, I won't do further editing as I'm putting my efforts into a full re-write. Author's note - Please be mindful of what you're saying when commenting. I'm happy with helpful criticism, spelling/grammar pointers, questions or simple chatter. However, a tirade of needless, unhelpful complaints and just outright rude commentary is not welcome. My stories are terrible first drafts, they're going to be riddled with issues, so just politely highlight if you feel there's a problem. I'll listen and likely take on board the criticism. And if you're not enjoying it, that's fine, just move on and thank you for giving it a shot. The cover is my own art; sketched 2017.
