Now back in Abneer, Emrys finds herself trapped in the palace planning for the day she dreads most: her wedding day. Despite her compliance, Emrys is no longer that girl she once was. The only thing greater than her desire to protect her family is her thirst for revenge.
But after a failed murder attempt, Emrys quickly learns just how dark and twisted King Vardan can be. The consequences for her actions are soul-crushing, devastating, unforgivable... but as the Reyes boys and their allies will soon find out, the consequences for crossing Emrys Ortega are far worse.

Paragon - Book I
*COMPLETE* There are whispers across the kingdoms that the Paragon, that strangely gifted person who can wield all four Skills, has been found. They're wrong, of course. No one has caught the Paragon. Allayria should know: she's it. But Allayria doesn't want to be the Paragon, and in her pursuit of freedom she finds herself enmeshed in a web of lies, caught in a group who might be even more dangerous than she could have imagined. Still, she's not the only one who has problems: bigger tides of change and danger are shifting across the world she has been assigned to protect. The Jarles, a kingdom in the east, has begun moving across its borders, and there are strange murmurings about what they have done, and where all the children they abducted have gone. Faced with responsibilities she never wanted, and a life she thought she could never have, Allayria must decide how she will help--and if she will be the Paragon at all. _____________________ WIP Cover art and written work by Azi.

Princess Daenerys Targaryen, the youngest daughter of King Viserys, has spent her life avoiding court politics, her responsibilities, and the endless rivalries tearing House Targaryen apart. But when an arranged marriage places her directly between the two factions, she quickly learns that surviving a war and ending one are not the same thing. As old loyalties fracture and the realm drifts toward bloodshed, Daenerys finds herself caught between duty and freedom, love and family, and the impossible choice of deciding who she is willing to sacrifice for peace. Set in an alternate version of House of the Dragon where Rhaenyra and her family never leave King's Landing.

The Maiden and the Drowning Boy { Aegon II Targaryen } || COMPLETE ||
[Canon Divergent Fix-It Fic Trilogy with a HEA. Multi-POV] As the kingdom teeters on the edge of chaos, Alicent Hightower swaps the pieces on the board: Aegon will marry Abrogail Strong, Larys' younger sister and heir to Harrenhal. Caught in the web of intrigue and political machinations, the pair must figure out where their loyalties lie, and what they mean to one another. They weren't even giving her to him, not to love like he wanted. No, they were taking his Maiden and turning her into a pawn just like him, placing her on the board beside him to move them both as his mother and grandfather pleased. It felt like something sacrificial; dark and maybe sacred in whatever deals had been made, whatever machinations brewed behind the curtains that he could not see.Complete
