In a kingdom on the brink of unrest, Thalia is an assassin bound by duty, trained to carry out her missions without question. When an unexpected assignment leads her to eliminate a high-ranking target, she believes it's just another task. But as the consequences of her actions ripple outward, she begins to realise the truth: nothing is ever as simple as it seems.
In the shadows, unseen forces move-forces that have been watching, waiting, and manipulating the pieces of a much larger game. Thalia's mentor, a man from her past, has his own agenda, and the choices she makes will decide far more than her next mission.
As alliances shift and danger closes in from every direction, Thalia finds herself at the heart of a war that has been fought quietly for years, with no clear victor in sight. In this deadly game, silence is the most dangerous weapon of all.
The Silent War is a story of hidden motives, untold consequences, and the quiet battles that shape the fate of a kingdom.

The shadow and the crown 👑
Princess Seraphine Valeria was raised to rule, not to feel. Cold-eyed and sharp-minded, the heir of Eldoria has learned that love is a weakness and sentiment is a luxury reserved for those who do not sit near power. When her father secures a political marriage to strengthen the kingdom, she bows with grace-because obedience is strategy, and strategy is survival. But fate has always had a cruel sense of irony. Kael Draven, her sworn knight-silent, disciplined, and carved by war-has stood at her side for years. Feared by enemies, respected by kings. Bound to her by loyalty... and something far more dangerous. A foreign prince wants her hand. A kingdom demands her duty. But the only man who knows her heart is the one she cannot have. One is her future. One is her undoing. And power has never been won without sacrifice. Even ice melts. Especially when fire stands too close.
The Hymn Of Destruction
There are situations disguised as blessings that turn people's world upside-down, spiralling down uncontrolled, sinking together to the point of no return. Sometimes greediness wormed its way and people wants time to freeze just to savour the moment a little bit longer. On the other hand, her life was handled too cruelly and suffered unimaginable sufferings and losses. The pain was her constant companion that guided her to move forward. It was pain that taught her that the world is cruel and embracing darkness is the only way to live, for it will always be true. A rarity in the world she is now. Emotions are fickle things, and there is no room for it in this place. Life in exchange for peace and slippery freedom. Blood for the sake of principles. She is an unknown pawn in the game of chess that will be used to destroy the enemy. She is the black horse silently tearing its way into the lion's den. Will she prevail? Or is her darkness within becomes her undoing? A battle of dominance is brewing. There is no time to hesitate as the enemy sets their eyes on her, waiting to strike at her most vulnerable.

So when Will decides to turn the school's poster girl into his newest distraction, Adeline's carefully built world begins to unravel.

The Crown and the Sky: My King with the Broken Stars
"They led her to the top of the world to marry a king she had never seen. The throne was empty. The silence, frozen. The marriage, an alliance sealed without love."

Bound by silence and exile, she soon learns that love is not enough to rule a kingdom. But perhaps it's enough to awaken a broken soul. Caught between two languages, two cultures, and two fires, she must choose: bow down like those before her... or rule like no one ever dared. A story of silence, fire, and shattered skies - where the heart speaks louder than the crown.Complete
