Caeryssa's quest for relaxation spirals into chaos, entwining her destiny with the infuriating playboy prince whose smile conceals a dark vendetta that will shatter any possibility of their soulmate connection.
***
On Oenone, where lush forests meet pristine beaches, Caeryssa, a xenobotanist on a rare vacation, finds herself entangled with Zaen, the celebrity prince of Penates. Between losing her upgraded room, being forced to deal with crowds of his fans and paparazzi, and a spa disaster that leaves her glowing in all the wrong ways, Caeryssa is beyond annoyed with the flirtatious male who has destroyed her long-awaited bid for tranquillity. 

But that's nothing compared to Zaen's rage at recognizing Caeryssa as the daughter of that bastard assassin who shattered his family. As animosity sparks and vengeance looms, the threads of fate weave Caeryssa and Zaen ever closer. Nothing will deter him from his deadly plot. Not even the revelation of a chilling truth-she's his soulmate. 

After all, his heart died with his family.

Honeyed Waters by DecayingGodess
14 parts Ongoing Mature
She is chaos in human skin-razor-edged, ice-veined, and unafraid to draw blood with nothing but her tongue. Shadows cling to her like a second skin, each one stitched with secrets she refuses to name. She carries her own ruin in her pocket, a temptation she fingers when the nights get too long, yet something in her still craves the taste of heat before the plunge. Fate has a way of answering such cravings-this time in the form of a man who looks like sin carved into flesh. He is polished, well put together, flawless, and far too controlled-until one looks close enough to see the cracks. Beneath his perfection coils a hunger so consuming it borders on feral. His protection is not a choice, but a possession-obsessive, intoxicating, and ruthless. He doesn't just want her-he intends to claim her, worship her, and cage her, all in the same breath. When their worlds collide, desire becomes a weapon, each touch blurring the line between devotion and destruction. In his arms, she may find the only refuge strong enough to survive what hunts her-or the fire that finally consumes her whole. Together, they are a warning and a promise: honey-sweet, poison-laced, and deadly enough to bring gods to their knees.

What does it take to unlock the path of true happiness? For two complete strangers, it's as simple as a wish to escape their sham of a life. But there's a reason you should be careful what you wish for. They'll be put to the ultimate test to determine how far they're willing to go and how hard they're willing to work for the desires of their hearts. ------------------------------------------------------ Zain Lockheart has always been the prime example of "everything that glitters isn't gold". Constantly living as an outcast in the shadow of his parents' fame and riches, he never imagined there'd be more to life than living in a gilded cage. When he meets Saber Blacke at a housewarming, he discovers a kindred spirit in her. She knows all too well what it is to pretend to be content for the sake of image. All it takes is this chance meeting to send them both nosediving into an alternate reality, where a mysterious race of people are suffering the consequences of a rift-inducing war that took place over a century ago. With Saber as his closest companion, Zain quickly transforms from a burden of privilege into the key of salvation for these people and their doomed world. The goal seems simple enough to accomplish: reunite two kingdoms to restore the world to its former glory. But what he isn't counting on is a pair of intruders, watching his every move from the shadows, hellbent on unleashing chaos and destroying this paradise beyond repair forever. Only one thing is certain now: if he ever wants to return home with Saber, they must first survive the harsh trials and unforgiving wilderness of Wonderland.

Was this fate, or just a cruel trick of her grieving heart? ============= When Ariana opened her eyes in a hospital bed, the world she had known for the past thirty years had vanished. There was no elegant hanfu, bustling marketplace, or warm smiles from her children and grandchildren. Instead, she found herself back in her original life-the life she had lost in a car crash, the life where her fiancé, Paul, had betrayed her with her stepsister, Julie. Her best friend, Tina, is the only anchor in this cold, unfamiliar reality, helping her navigate a world that has moved on without her. But Ariana cannot forget the lifetime she lived in another world, the love she had discovered, the husband she had mourned for a decade before she was ripped away. And then she sees him. A stranger with familiar eyes. A man whose presence tugs at something deep within her, inscribed into her soul. Is he the reincarnation of the man she loved beyond the boundaries of time, or is her grief distorting reality, causing her to chase the shadows of a dream? As Ariana struggles to regain her place in a life she no longer wants, the lines between fiction and fate blur. The past is written, but love might find a way to reshape destiny. ============= A novella inspired by the ONC prompt 129: "The ink of our souls binds us beyond the pages of time," The Ink of Our Souls tells a story of love, loss, and the unbreakable ties that transcend worlds.
