In the land of Araelia, two powerful kingdoms were forced into a terrifyingly unstable treaty after a gruesome war that ended in the death of Queen Irena Drakarr of Drakestone, who was killed by the brutal and bloodthirsty King Alaric Zenhir of Zenithrae - after Drakestone had already declared its surrender. With Irena gone, the citizens of Drakestone no longer possessed the magic she kindly bestowed upon them.
Irena's husband, King Draktus, retaliates by using the rest of his magic to curse the Kingdom of Zenithrae, making it impossible for their magic to be used to harm or kill anyone ever again.
As a token of peace, the Kingdom of Zenithrae now funnels a portion of its magic to Drakestone to be given to its inhabitants.
Unfortunately, this is not enough for Grimmur, the son of the murdered queen.
So Grimmur eventually has one child of his own. A son: Prince Cinte Drakarr of Drakestone. At the age of 6, Cinte begins a long road of agonizing training, his physical and mental abilities being pushed beyond comprehension. His ability to feel any sort of emotion is snuffed out like a candle by his father's relentless demands. For 15 years, he was trained for one purpose:
To avenge his grandmother, Irena.
To get revenge for his father, Grimmur.
To kill the granddaughter of King Alaric Zenhir.
But is any man truly strong enough to kill an innocent girl? Will Cinte be able to follow through with his father's plan, or is his purpose much more complex than just fulfilling the role of his father's personal assassin?

As the Crow Falls | ✔
Niccola is a demi-queen undercover in enemy territory. Her little sister went missing seven moons ago, but one lead remains: a picture of a woman's face, drawn by a diviner shortly after the disappearance. Tracking her down has led Niccola to Calis, the realm next door whose border with her own remains closed for a reason. There, the trail goes cold. Until, that is, Niccola runs into a man in the marketplace who bears a family resemblance to the woman she seeks. His name is Isaiah, crown prince of Calis, and he's investigating disappearances, too. They join forces, faking courtship to sneak Niccola into the palace and get Isaiah's wedding-minded mother off his back. It doesn't take long to suspect that a common threat might underpin both their realms' problems. And as Niccola begins to develop real feelings for Isaiah, she's faced with an impossible choice: reveal her secrets and risk breaking his trust, or leave him in order to chase down the woman who stole her sister... a woman whose forbidden magic comes with a cost that could bring both realms to ruin. ❖❖❖ Complete and fully edited.

The Dragon's Match
She did not want to match with one of his kind; he did not want to match at all. Lillian Adams was set to inherit her father's dukedom- once she had made a suitable match, one that was not of the fae, and certainly not one that was Aëghan Dranora- the unpredictable and darkly attractive male that was lingering around her family's estate. Having spent four long years in their world, she was no stranger to the cruelness of the fae. But why was it only in his presence that she felt calmer than she had in years, that made her stir with yearnings of desire she had never felt before? Knowing all that she did about him, she should resist the pull that she feels for him... Aëghan had one purpose in this world- to find a way out of it. It was the only thing he lived for, the only thing guiding his every action. Until her. He could not allow himself to nurture the attraction he had for Lillian Adams, he couldn't allow anything, especially not a human woman that made his soul come alive, to come between him and his ultimate goal- to leave this world and return to his own. And Lillian was just that- a distraction, a hindrance. But the desire of his mind went against the desire of his heart as even the Gods urged their union. Aëghan was not convinced he would be able to make the choice should the time arrive when he had to- her, or his world and people.Complete
