The Kingdom of Orto Mortui thrives where others fear to tread-amid raging storms and whispers of death. Its people wield the fury of lightning, their strength forged by loyalty and tradition. But when betrayal threatens the realm and war looms on the horizon, a queen born of storms must embrace her legacy.
Bound by fate and fire, Marsaduccere Anubis discovers that power demands sacrifice, love breeds vulnerability, and even legends can bleed. As alliances form and enemies rise, she will face a question that has shaped every ruler before her: What are you willing to destroy to save what you love?

Cursed Hearts: The Shadow Prince
In a city where magic is outlawed, a fallen prince hides behind his empire of shadows-until a fearless commoner accidentally binds her soul to his curse. Now, loving him means dying with him. Synopsis Magic was banned from Aetheris City a decade ago, after the royal family's dark secret burned half the kingdom to ash. But magic never truly disappeared-it just went underground. Cassia Vale, a twenty-one-year-old street healer, survives by using her forbidden gift in secret. She swore never to get involved with nobles. Never again. Until she saves the life of a man she shouldn't have touched. A man who bleeds black smoke instead of blood. A man whose name the world forgot-Prince Kael Draven, heir to the fallen throne, cursed by his own father to live in eternal shadow. But their accidental bond awakens an ancient prophecy. The curse that destroys everything Kael loves now begins to consume Cassia's heart too. And the only way to break it- is to fall in love before the final eclipse.
An echo of Kings
"How do you mourn the dead, when the world says they never existed?" In the Kingdom of Varkhaz... truth is dictated by the stroke of a brush, and history can be rewritten with a trace of ink. Feria Hagalder spent the first fourteen years of her life confined within a 'golden cage,' and the following four years as a 'ghost' hidden deep within the forest. She is the survivor of her family's massacre. Yet, what is far more terrifying than the edge of a blade is the fact that her family members were erased from every record, as if they had never existed in this world at all. But amidst the silence, Feria hears voices... They are the fragments of distorted memories, visions of things that do not exist, and echoing reminders that her 'identity' might not be the role she is currently playing. As vengeance begins to devour the "little lamb" mask she has forged, Feria must make a choice: remain hidden in the shadows for the rest of her life, or step back into the vortex of lies to reclaim her erased name. In a world where anomalies are an omen of doom... she is willing to become a demon to rewrite the truth with her own blood. 📖 What to Expect ✔ Dark Fantasy & Cosmic Horror ✔ Psychological Dread & Isolation ✔ The Mystery ✔ Ancient Gods & Eldritch Curses ✔ Slow Burn Character Growth ✔ Loss of Humanity ⚠️ Content Warnings ✔ Violence & Gore ✔ Psychological Trauma & Gaslighting ✔ Body Horror ✔ Dark/Mature Themes 📅 Update Schedule ✔ weekly Updates - every Wednesday & Sunday ★ Schedule Notice: Due to health issues, updates will be irregular.

Sacrifice For The Job
(This story is mostly smut as I plan on my next release being more innocent and lacking in that area. It also focuses very little on side characters since I wanted to keep the story short after feeling like my more recent stories have been a bit too long) After having the glow up of her dreams, Aria Hart finally believes she can get and do anything she wants. With that in mind, she goes after the job her ill uncle had always dreamt for her. She knows it will make him proud and believes pretty privilege will work in her favor. To her surprise, when she finally speaks to the man in charge, Elijah Caddel, she realizes that pretty privilege comes with a lot more opportunities than she previously imagined. Not all of them great. Aria finds herself in a deal she would have never imagined. One that actually makes her scowl upon hearing it. But when that deal can make or break her promise to her sick uncle, she feels she has no other choice but to accept it. After hearing the severity of the terms and experiencing it firsthand, Aria can't decide how she feels about their new agreement. Or how she feels about Elijah. (Similarly to "No Good For You", this story only details the start of their relationship. Not the during.) (Warning: this story is for readers 21+, intense smut scenes and language are included. Reader discretion advised.) (Story does switch POVs)Complete
