FOR MILLENNIA SHE HAS STOOD A SILENT VIGIL.
HER POWER UNQUESTIONABLE.
HER SHIELD LIGHT IMPENETRABLE.

GAIA is a land rife with magic, mysticism, and the treachery of warring factions. But the stakes are raised when the guardian is destroyed, and darkness descends upon the continent. A demon now walks free, and hordes of Anasi are on the hunt. As chaos ensues and old feuds rear their heads, three strangers find themselves on a mission to save their world or be forced to watch it burn.

ZANDER seeks answers. Abandoned by his father at a young age and confined to the outskirts of humanity, he does what he must to survive. But when a chance encounter grants him powers beyond his wildest imagination, the question soon becomes, will he like the answers he finds?

KEKO is a prince who has been groomed since birth to lead the people of Tia into the future. What he wants, however, is another matter. As time runs out, he finds himself on a journey to reconcile the two before fate's cruel hand does it for him.

KARA seeks revenge, or at least a chance to get even. Castaway by those who should love her most, she spends most of her days wading neck-deep in the wreckage of her past. Yet, as the world begins to burn around her, she finds herself seeking hope in the most unlikely of places.

Szverak  by SzweetArt
8 parts Ongoing Mature
In the shadowed realms of Elyndor, where monsters devour the weak and demons whisper temptations in the night, the Szverak stand as humanity's cursed saviors. Forged in the brutal fires of the Learning Castle, these guardians are orphans and street urchins trained from childhood in blood-soaked rituals-learning to heal from mortal wounds, sense evil's approach, and devour the raw organs of their kills to steal unholy powers. Hated by the very souls they protect, they carve a path through gore and glory, their bodies marked by scars that tell tales of survival. Enter Ares, the White Scar-a legendary Szverak of unknown age, his pale flesh a canvas of battles won. With a wicked humor that masks his unyielding resolve, Ares has felled nearly every abomination the darkness can spawn: dragons whose hearts grant fire's immunity, succubi whose livers pulse with seductive resilience. But when his ultra instinct awakens to a cataclysmic vision-the Nerc King, an ancient entity of necrotic devastation stirring in the abyssal Shadowrift-Ares knows the end times loom. Armed with blade and berserk rage fueled by his own blood, Ares embarks on a relentless quest. He'll forge uneasy alliances in fog-shrouded taverns and blood-drenched battlefields, where victories taste of iron and fleeting passions ignite amid the carnage. In a world of unrelenting horror, can one scarred warrior unravel the Nerc King's web of decay, or will Elyndor fall to eternal rot? Szverak is a fast-paced dark fantasy epic, brimming with visceral gore, sensual rituals, and hard-won triumphs-where hope flickers like a blade in the dark.

30 parts Complete
A forgotten legacy. A flame reborn. A crown that could save-or shatter-two worlds. Kalista Amara Rowan has always felt like an outsider-haunted by dreams that don't belong to her, drawn to flames that never burn her, and shadowed by a birthmark she can't explain. At sixteen, she's just trying to survive high school in Oregon and silence the magic stirring beneath her skin. But when a violent storm unearths a hidden journal in her family's cellar- and awakens something ancient in her blood-Kalista's life ignites. Torn from the world she knows and thrust into a realm of elemental power, soul-bound warriors, and a crumbling crown, she discovers the truth: She is the reincarnated High Priestess Princess of Sahlara, the Flamebearer of the Ethereal Universe... and she's being hunted by the very enemy who destroyed her in a past life. Now, as two worlds teeter on the edge of war, Kalista must uncover the secrets of her legacy, master the fire within, and face the boy sworn to protect her-even if loving him could destroy them both. But the deeper she dives into her forgotten past, the more one truth becomes impossible to ignore: She didn't just die once to save the realm. She might have to do it again. Daughter of the Flame is the breathtaking first book in The Ethereal Crown series sweeping YA fantasy saga of elemental magic, ancestral power, forbidden love, and a heroine caught between destiny and defiance. Perfect for fans of Throne of Glass, An Ember in the Ashes, and The Cruel Prince.

Throne of Immortal King

67 parts Complete

For centuries, Lucian Drazel Valemont, the feared Vampire King, has ruled from the shadows-immortal, untouchable, and cursed with a heart of stone. Legends speak his name with dread, for he is said to bring ruin wherever he walks. To Lucian, love is a weakness long buried with the ashes of his past. In a quiet village at the edge of his dark kingdom lives Aria Celeste Moreau, a simple girl who has always felt invisible in her own world. Gentle yet resilient, she dreams of a life beyond her small village, never imagining that destiny has already marked her as the key to breaking a king's eternal curse. When a fateful night draws her into the Vampire King's path, their worlds collide. Aria should fear him, yet she finds herself captivated by the man behind the monster. And for Lucian, Aria is a dangerous temptation-the light that threatens to shatter his carefully built darkness. But their love is forbidden. Humans call him a monster. Vampires call her a weakness. Together, they must defy a world set against them, uncover the truth of Aria's hidden bloodline, and face the prophecy that binds their souls. In the clash between eternal night and fragile dawn, only one question remains: Will their love be strong enough to break the curse-or will it destroy them both?
