Light Talon was born from a family of known assassins, the Talon, but little did he know of the truth. Little did he know that he's the last heir to the race of assassins from France to kill the King of England. Little did he know that he will serve under his family's biggest opponent, the family of Ascarlon, a name of knights vowed to protect the king of England, and to kill any assassin they may confirm, and to kill the Talon until the last blood is spilled. Now Light lives as a farmer, a son to former assassins living within the territories of their enemy's lands. Through strings of fate, he is brought closer to his apparent death more than ever in his entire life, and how he'd live his life, through stealth and blows, and how he will be the last one drinking the cup of blood.

Shadows of the Cursed Crown
She was born a weapon. He was born a target. Only together can they break the curse that will destroy them both. Keisha Grelynn is the last assassin of the Veilborn, a brotherhood dismantled in blood and fire. Hunted, exiled, and bound by a contract she cannot refuse, she is offered one final mission: kill Alexander Danial, heir to the throne of Eryndral. His death will buy her freedom. But when Keisha slips into the palace's shadows, she discovers a truth no coin-payer ever intended her to know. The young heir is not the villain she expected-he is the kingdom's last hope. In secret, Alexander searches for a way to undo the ancient curse that is rotting his people and has already claimed generations of his bloodline. A curse the Veilborn themselves once helped cast. Now Keisha faces an impossible choice. Complete her contract and walk free, or betray everything she was trained to be and guard the one man who might redeem them both. As court traitors close in, monsters stir in cursed lands, and forgotten relics awaken, assassin and heir must decide whether they are enemies, allies, or something far more dangerous. Steel meets shadow. Loyalty meets betrayal. And in the end, freedom may cost more than either of them is willing to pay.
The Sorcerer's Pet
He burned for control. She was born of chaos. Together, they'll shatter the laws that broke them-and forge a love fierce enough to change everything. - In a kingdom where magic is law and the powerless are sold like cattle, survival is a coin few can afford. Every season, the poorest are swept from the streets and auctioned off as Familiars - living mana batteries to feed the ambitions of greedy sorcerers. Forgotten. Disposable. Erissa expected pain when she was claimed by Lord Kaelen Carmentis - the coldest sorcerer in the court, and heir to one of the oldest bloodlines in the realm. She didn't expect the bond to awaken something inside her. And she certainly didn't expect that, in the silence between them, she would feel safe. But Familiars aren't meant to be felt. And whatever is growing between them... is breaking every rule. Because she was never meant to survive the system. She was meant to rewrite it - and burn the old world down in the process.Complete

But I have been immensely inspired by the great works of SenLinYu, Emerald Slytherin and Sarah J Maas. My writing development over the last year has been truly inspired by them, as has this book. You may notice minor aspects from them, so I guess you could say I wrote something that combined all of the books and ideas that I loved! However, this is still a completely its own with a nod of appreciation to the amazing storylines, characters and world building that these authors have created. And of course, a massive thank you to all of my readers that have kept me going and encouraged me to keep creating. Consider this book my gift of thanks - A. Oh!
