Two worlds, eternally divided: the prosperous Upper World and the perpetually cold and harsh Lower World. The Upper World is filled with magic rooted in goodness, while the Lower World's magic is dark and destructive, its people shaped by centuries of oppression and fear.
Avery Fantome, known as Inferna in the Lower World, is a fierce warrior wielding the power of fire. Playful and mischievous on the surface, she hides a heart consumed by pain and revenge, especially after the supposed loss of her little brother, Aaron. Sent on missions by the oppressive king of the Lower World, she becomes a symbol of destruction, her flames leaving scars across both worlds.
Christopher, a healer from the Upper World and member of a secret clan, is determined to protect his people from Inferna's wrath. But when their paths cross, he sees a glimmer of humanity beneath her fiery rage-a sadness that begins to unravel her true motives.
In a world where alliances are fragile and truths are buried, Avery discovers that her twin sister, Melanie, has been living in the Upper World as one of the very people she has vowed to destroy. Torn between love and betrayal, Avery must confront her sister, her past, and the lies that have shaped her existence.
With Silviya, her venom-wielding best friend, at her side, Avery wages war against the Upper World. But revelations about Aaron's survival and the manipulations of the Lower World's king force her to question everything she stands for. As the lines between enemies and allies blur, Avery must decide whether to embrace vengeance or fight for something greater than herself.
This is a story of love, loss, and redemption, where the bonds of family and friendship are tested against the flames of war, and where even in the darkest corners, hope flickers like a flame waiting to ignite.

Apocalypse NEW VERSION
Growing up in their sister's shadow wasn't easy; surviving after she left has been harder. In the nine years since their Kingdom was destroyed by the cruel Falcondar family, Kiridan has had two objectives: to stay hidden from the Falcondars, and to figure out why their sister never came back for them. They discover that she started an underground organization to overthrow the Falcondars...and then died three years ago while on a mission in the mountains. Determined to make something of their sister's efforts - and to be recognized as more than the less-talented sibling - Kiridan decides to break into the organization known as the Infernal Uprising, taking their rightful place among its leadership. But as the attack on the Falcondars draws nearer, they'll have to learn that leadership is more than barking orders, and that trust is difficult to earn. When the chaos spirals further than anyone expected, and new powers come into play from every direction, a lot of people may have to reevaluate what they stand for...whether they're an Infernal Uprising soldier, a traitor, or a Falcondar Princess herself. Sure, through the eyes of those in power, the world has always been in conflict. But for the next generation waiting to take over, the conflict is just beginning. And for the rest of the unsuspecting universe, it hasn't even begun. Which came first, the catastrophe or the change? And what's the difference in the first place? ******* ONGOING.

If You Love Me
In the first second that I laid my eyes on you, everything that I have ever wanted out of life flashed right before my eyes. I could envision us going on picnics, stuffing our faces until we felt sick, holding hands until there was nothing but sweat between us, and introducing you to my parents in hopes that they would love you just an ounce of the way that I loved you. I could see us fighting over the remote only to end up not paying attention to the television program at all. And most of all, I could see you meaning something special to me- being that one consistent person in my life. But that second soon ended and I did not even know your name. Avery Davenport is an artist chaos. On the outside, a girl with her head in books, paint on her fingertips, and one foot in front of the other. On the inside, a girl with hate in her heart, regret in her veins, and self-loathing in her every system. Following a tragic turn of events, she begins to spiral. A tragic and fatal ending that she didn't have the answers to completely causes her to unravel. Pain slowly begins to be masked in the beds of the boys she meets, in her dark and quiet room, and subsequently on the ledge of her dorm room balcony. She didn't believe in hope or happy endings, never having conjured up one for herself or others, not until she met him. Dean Carter is all things remarkable. On the outside, a boy with ironed clothes, hair always perfected, and an ever dashing smile that could melt one's every sorrow. On the inside, a boy with cognizance in his brain, hope in his veins, and loneliness in his heart. Everything in his life has happened according to plan. His every happiness stems from medical books, sunsets, and seeing his loved ones smile. He has never been in love, never so much as thought about a girl beyond what left her lips, not until he met her. Please read the foreword for trigger warnings and disclaimers.
