After the murder of his father, Jonas Greywater is saved by the mysterious vagabond, Sam. Implicated in the murder, Sam helps Jonas evade the law but in doing so thrusts him into the mysterious world of Heggary. Relentlessly, pursued by Captain Phanna, Jonas embarks on an adventure of discovery where he learns he holds a strand of the ethereal Golden Knot, the source of Hegomantic power, a power that Crown Prince Aze'mar yearns for.

Driven by his despotic quest to reunite the Golden Knot, Aze'mar murders his father and the Watchers - the guardians of the four realms of the continent, creating a political vacuum. In response, his adopted brother, Laza'mar, rejects Aze'mar as ruler. Out of fear that Laza'mar could set himself up as a rival to the throne, Aze'mar sends assassins to eliminate Laza'mar, only for Laza'mar to escape, setting him on a quest for survival and then reap bloody revenge. 

However, Aze'mar's brashness and Machiavellian nature will not go unpunished, triggering the heirs of the Watchers to declare civil war on the Crown itself. But time is running out! In murdering his father, Aze'mar has claimed four of the five strands of power, though whether he can keep them in check remains to be seen.

If the political machinations of A SONG OF ICE AND FIRE married the beautifully grotesque characters of THE FIRST LAW TRILOGY while having a scandalous affair with the epic nature of STORMLIGHT ARCHIVES, their bastard child would be - THE GOLDEN KNOT.

19 parts Ongoing Mature
Aubrielle Baine was the first of her kind in a hundred and fifty years. A female pup born to a Primary Alpha Family, the werewolf ruling class directly descended from the ancient ancestors of werewolves, the Lycans. Unfortunately, the last alpha female was the reason two alpha males went to war for the first time and the wars didn't end when they died. Their diety the moon goddess cursed her own children preventing the birth of alpha females and the wolves from finding their fated mates. Enter Lysander Hunters, his father, like Alpha Baine, had been striving to unite the entire werewolf race and put a stop to the wars and the devastation they left behind, now the two are too dominant to submit and unite their packs which were the largest in the world. Alpha Baine also fears for his daughter's title and safety once he's gone. The only solution, have their heirs marry. Ander and Aubry are too dominant to inhabit the same space yet they have a responsibility to their packs and the survival of their race coupled with the disappointing betrayal of their parents' four years in the making scheme, tensions start to rise, but they are not all unpleasant. What happens when Ander suspects that his unexplanable attraction and overprotective actions to his mate was because the fated mate curse was also lifted at her birth and she was fated for him? As enemies threaten on all sides, will Ander come to fully understand his feelings as he does all in his power to keep his mate safe when her life is continuously threatend? And will Aubry trust her own growing feelings for her kind, thoughtful and affectionate mate and give in to what the future promises or will she succumb to her dominant nature and challenge him at every turn for his irritatingly overprotectiveness towards her? The fate of the entire werewolf race might just be hanging in the balance.
Of Bastards & Dragons || Aenar Targaryen  by Iam_LewaKulture
115 parts Ongoing Mature
"F-fuck." Alicent's shudders bitting her lips as his girth shifts her womb. "Argh!..." Aenar groans into her ear as he grasped her hips and thrust, hours and hours of his own pent-up desire, fuelling each lunge into her, the silky sheath of his steel member massaging the walls of her core. Had she thought his tongue provided the perfect friction? She was wrong again; it was his cock, every inch of it, stimulating the entire length of her canal, each thrust sending sparks through her. "Yes....fuck me harder!." Alicent moaned back, and bent over as far as she could, pulling his cock even deeper, so that he dragged at each ridge of her core wall with every thrust. Aenar's lips were still glistening and wet with her juices as he nibbled gently at her nipples, then raised his head and put his hands on either side of her swaying body. Each thrust of his hips was a forceful foreshock that rippled through her, sending shockwaves from her core through her whole body, finally escaping as heat through every flushed pore in her skin. OF BASTARDS & DRAGONS is an explicit tale of erotic theme, a storytelling advantage between two adults committing sin in the bowels of the Red Keep. Prince Aenar Targaryen and Lady Alicent Hightower, their relationship is far more troubling, complex, and interestingly dirty in romance and sex. In a world as ruthless as Westeros, finding solace in unexpected places is both rare and precious. Despite the controversy, it's undeniable that their bond makes sense, given their histories and emotional journeys. Aenar and King Viserys wife, Alicent have entangled themselves in a way that has often doomed other duos because personal relationships have a tendency to undermine duty and rational thinking. Every character's ideas of marital unions and love are vastly different from each other, giving rise to insightful and memorable impact, thereby causing a division of civil war known as the Dance of the Dragons between Bastards. 2024 © Lewa

(ONGOING. New chapters published sporadically) TWO SISTERS: ALWAYS APART, BUT TIED TO THE SAME FATE. Antigone and Ismene, named after two strong women from Greek Mythology, were the daughters of the Baron and Baroness of Phoenix Territory. As children, though they had their issues, the two sisters were attached at the hip. But when Antigone found her parents dead right before her eyes and her sister was nowhere to be found, things changed forever. At eleven years old, she became the youngest leader in the history of the Badlands. When she was sixteen years old, Antigone and her reagent Erastos, who was her childhood friend and the son of a cog, ran into trouble when their territory was invaded, plunging them into the middle of a war between territories. In an attempt to provide for her people and rebuild her barony from the bottom up, Antigone found herself aligning with Butterfly territory's headstrong Baron known as the Widow. This alignment opened her eyes to an entirely new world. She found herself trusting people whom she never thought that she would trust. After she began training with the Widow, she met a boy who seemed to know more about her than she knew about herself. This led her to discover a dark secret deep within her. Soon, Antigone found herself torn between loyalties, but the loyalty that mattered to her the most to her was her loyalty to her sister. Maybe, just maybe, Antigone was willing to spill blood to find her. The real question was whether or not Antigone would lose herself along the way.
