The land of Eralia is divided into six kingdoms. Six monarch families rule over their kingdom. These families are called houses. Mage House, Squall House, Tide House, Inferno House, Wild House, and Frost House. The inhabitants of these kingdoms are those gifted by the gods, born with different abilities that match the kingdom they were born in.
Every hundred years comes The Storm. A magical typhoon sent by the gods. The Storm is both a gift and a curse.
For every Storm, each House must send two competitors to fight in a series of trials as a sacrifice to the gods who control the Storm, and the winner is granted unimaginable power.
During these trials, alliances are made, as well as betrayals, sacrifices, and elaborate plans...
Artemis Mage is the heir to the Mage throne, and all she has to do is get through the Storm Trials alive and bring honor to her House. But then her mother, the Queen of the Mages, forces Artemis into an alliance with Squall House, Mage House's biggest rival. Artemis then has to work with her sworn enemy, Atlas Squall in order to win the Trials and gain praise from the gods.
But can she trust the boy who killed hundreds of her people including her own brother? And as her feelings for this boy grow and the fatalities, betrayal and danger of these trials complicate things will she remember her purpose before it's too late?

All I Need ✔️
"You're playing with fire Safania." "Good thing I don't burn." The last words he spoke before throwing me onto my bed sounded like a threat, but felt more like a promise. "You will." *** Don't get caught. Those are the three words Safania has lived by for the past five years. As a marked woman - easily identified by intricate bronze marks on her back and unpredictable special abilities - she has spent the past five years running from anyone who might exploit those abilities...especially the royal families who tortured marked women to build their empires. Starving, exhausted, and frozen, she collapses by the bank of a river just to wake up in her worst nightmare: the chambers of a prince. Prince Cassius is his father's first choice of his three brothers to ascend to the throne. He's smart, strategic, and stoic, unlike his corrupt and depraved brothers. There's just one problem: he has no interest in any of his proposed marital matches, and the King will only pick someone as his successor who he knows will carry on the family line. But once he meets Safania, he finds himself unable to imagine ruling the kingdom without her by his side. Can he convince her to trust him? *** Warning: this story contains mature and potentially triggering themes including domestic violence and sexual assault. Reader discretion is advised.Complete

Marrying My Daughter's Guardian (COMPLETE)
/Highest Ranking /#1 in TRIALS/ Maddie slowly opened her eyes. As if, she was taken aback from a majestic world with sweet voices of singing angels. A set of dark and round eyes were locked onto hers and she was firmly held by two strong arms while his fingers tingling her back with soft caress. One moment, Matthew looked at her with so much flame and of so much passion as if those eyes reflect what's deep within hers. She longs for him and that any moment she will explode. Then passed another moment, the passionate look in his eyes turned into dreadful gaze. She was tightly held up to the point that he is already hurting her. "How far can you go, Maddie?" Matthew sarcastically uttered. "I am very happy that you came back for Sabina, I thought you're a good mother after all. I was led to believe that you did that for her sake, and deep within you, a caring mother really exists. But now, knowing your daughter's worth, you're too eager to claim her fortune by dragging me into this?", he paused for a moment. "I can never fall for this. You maybe Sabina's birth mother but not until I am breathing, you can't touch anything that is hers. She doesn't deserve a fortune-hungry mother like you!" Matthew pushed Maddie so hard that she fell unto her knees. She is in pain not because her knees got scratched from her fall, she is in pain because she knew Matthew has already judged her. Matthew Blaine, her daughter's legal guardian, was a perfect dad for Sabina. He had always been good to her, loving her as his very own. With Matthew and Sabina, Maddie felt it is such a perfect family, something that she has dreamed all her life. But how could they be a perfect family when Matthew was too vindicated that she doesn't fit to be the perfect mom?Complete

For Her Favor
"This man had sought revenge for me and made a spectacle for it. He had protected my crown. He also answered my questions vaguely and I was nowhere closer to figuring him out than when he first arrived, but I was drawn to him. Like an addict to a drug, damn I wanted to be close to him. I wanted his touch. There was no sane explanation for it, it was just a want, a need." Princess Esme was never supposed to be Queen, but when tradgedy strikes in her Fae kingdom, she is forced to bear the crown. In Amoria, the Kingdom of Love and Life, she must battle with the patriarchy now to keep it. They want a king on the throne and she wants a chance at true love like the rest of her people.

Everything Esme knows is about to be challenged and not everything will be as it seems. In the end she'll have to choose; her kingdom or her heart.Complete
