As the future queen of Roven, Aeliss might be accustomed to getting what she wants, but there is one thing that's always been just out of her reach: a mate. When she finally discovers him, she is thrilled to find that her destined mate is Caedion, one of her mother's most decorated knights. Aeliss' happiness is shattered when she discovers him on their wedding night, kneeling before the grave of his fallen lover, swearing that he will never love another. Her priorities shift in an instant. First and foremost, she will free herself from the bond that is clearly destined to bring her nothing but heartache.
Caedion's life has revolved around one goal: doing the right thing. When he sees the pain he has wrought on his fated mate, he knows he must fix it, no matter the cost. However, as he gets to know Aeliss, he starts to realize that letting her go was the greatest mistake of his life. The woman he saw as a spoiled and entitled princess is now the one person he cannot bear to lose.
Aeliss' success will mean Caedion's devastation.
But the stakes are higher than either of them know.

Calliope
"It's my curse, and my duty. I have to do it, Azrael!" I cried out from the other side of the room, as the ground shook and cracks formed in the tiles. I was terrified. Terrified of what might happen to me, in the scenario that this fails. If I fail, I'd be haunted by her forever. I couldn't - wouldn't, let myself succumb to her. This was my fight. "Princess, I swear, if anything happens to you, I'll go crazy. Just stop!" Azrael shouted above all the noise. While I was lost in thought, everything had become more chaotic. The storm outside, the lightning and thunder that made me jump everytime it occured. All it took was one leap of faith. One risk to take, and I'd be rid of her forever. -------------------------- Calliope Solace - the princess nobody knew existed. Since birth and until the age of fourteen, her father, the emperor, kept her locked up in a palace in hopes nobody would find out about her existence, and most importantly, the threat her touch brought. One touch is all it took for a living being to wither and fall in the hands of death - one touch, more deadly than a hundred swords. Callie couldn't be more loving despite her deadly curse. She believed in the fairytales and the happily ever afters, which is why she didn't rebel or complain even after learning that, through marriage, she'd be shackled to the sadistic emperor who loved nothing more than to see people suffer; Azrael Ivanov. What she didn't know, was that Azrael had his own reasons to marry her, in the pursuit of vengeance and revenge to her father. [A/N] This is book 2, continuing in the same universe as 'Althea' my previous book. This is Callie's (Aias' sister's) book! However, it can be read as a standalone! All pictures belong to their respective owner, I only own the idea and the storyline etc!
The Price of Innocence
"Some ghosts don't haunt to scare you. They haunt to remind you what you lost." Thandi's innocence echoed in every memory she shared with her sister. She's accepted the truth - her sister is gone, and nothing can change that. But everything shatters the moment she sees her again. Alive. Smiling. Real. Now caught between the sister she loves and the man she's come to care for, Thandi must make an impossible choice - one that will teach her that even innocence comes with a price. In a world of power, secrets, and ruthless ambition, every choice has consequences. Loyalties will be tested, hearts will be broken, and betrayal lurks in the most unexpected places. Survival is only the beginning; when nothing is as it seems, even the purest hearts cast the darkest shadows.Complete
The Devil's Crybaby
Eliza Labelle had survived a shooting that should have killed her, but surviving turned out to be the beginning of her problems rather than the end. After waking in a hospital bed with a bullet wound and a government determined to bury the incident, she discovered that the man responsible had vanished behind the walls of a place most people only whispered about. While her family tried to push her back into her privileged city life, strange events and growing unease made it impossible for her to forget what happened. When she was suddenly taken from everything she knew and dragged beyond the safety of the world she had grown up in, Eliza found herself trapped in a brutal land ruled by old loyalties, hidden power structures, and people who lived by laws far different from those of the city. As she struggled to survive among dangerous strangers, she uncovered secrets that connected powerful families, forbidden territories, and a world that had been carefully hidden from ordinary people. The deeper she was pulled into that world, the harder it became to separate friend from enemy, truth from manipulation, and survival from sacrifice. What began as a fight to return home slowly became a journey that forced her to confront the darkest parts of human nature, the cost of loyalty, and the reality that some doors could never be closed once they were opened.
The Troubled Soul (Volume 3: Final Volume)
Once upon a time, there was a young boy who experienced constant pain. The only person who truly stayed by his side was Kallie, his sister. She was his everything. His life, his family, his best friend...his world. Then humanity had to take her away and wreck his perfect, peaceful life. As if it was not enough humans were the source of all his pain and suffering he experienced throughout his life, and the reason for all his scars and symbols, they took away the only person he cared about. Well, enough was enough. He tried leaving humanity alone. He tried living a peaceful life away from all the fighting. It was all he wanted; to live a peaceful life with his sister, but humanity would not allow him that. So, if battling was the only thing humans throughout history understood, then he would bring them a war. So now, he has a new goal. Peace treaties are made between humans but they never last. War, however, forces the loser to obey no matter what for however long the winner decides. If humanity-the entire world-only submitted to the strongest then he would dominate them all. Only he would be the strongest, allowing no other person to even come close to his power. He would burn the world down to its very foundation, eradicating everyone who stands in his way, and rebuild it anew. The new world would be transformed into what he could never have. A fair and just world, devoid of all sins, where everyone can live a peaceful life without the constant worry of what could hurt them next. New laws will be placed while the old ones are removed. All evil will be purged from the world. Any who stand in his way will be turned to ash to help build his world. If the world wanted him to be evil so badly...then he would be a malicious tyrant that rules not with an iron fist, but a diamond one. Of course, there will be many who will fight back. However, there is only one person who even has a chance at winning...and she only cares about her little sunshine.Complete

A new woman rose from the ashes. Two years later, Solin returns to the city of Tibalt, where the high society of the Kingdom of Aivieria gathers during the autumn, winter, and spring seasons. Widowed and carrying the knowledge that she will likely discover the mark of her mate within a year, Solin intends to use her last few months of freedom to enjoy herself before she settles down. The escort she chooses for her new, excitingly wild life? King Aurik, the man who ended her old one. And he's certainly not enjoying himself (ask Solin if she cares). It's about time the world was reminded that roses have thorns.Complete
Song of a Siren
Caroline was shaped by grief, sharpened by betrayal, and sent back to the men who lit the match. Hunted through the waters her kind once ruled, she watched her brothers dragged from the sea and hung like a trophy by the very family that called themselves righteous. Now, years later, she walks into the lion's den-not as prey, but as the end of mercy. Zakaria, heir to the blood-stained legacy of sea-killers, never questioned the stories his family built their power on. Yet, when Caroline forces him to look at the truth-her truth-he is faced with a choice: protect the lies that shaped him, or destroy them alongside everything he's ever known. What begins as a brutal confrontation spirals into something far more dangerous: obsession, guilt, and a twisted echo of love neither can afford. Because some wounds were meant to bleed. And some love stories are written in blood.
