A grieving artist. A fallen angel. A deal inked in blood-and desire.
A PAINTER WHO'S LOST HER INSPIRATION...
Lyra Steele, a once-promising artist, now lives in isolation, consumed by grief and guilt over the brutal death of her lover, Ethan, during a home invasion. Her art, once vibrant, has become dark and unfinished, mirroring her emotional torment.
THE ONE WHO SEEKS TO POSSESS HER...
Sylas, a dark-winged stranger, crashes into her life, wounded and desperate. A fallen angel cursed by his past, he offers Lyra a tempting deal: he will grant her the artistic clarity she desperately seeks, but at a cost--she must bind herself to him forever.
He doesn't just want her--he needs her, and he will tear apart anyone or anything to possess her.

ONCE UPON A BROKEN STAR (TVD/HP/ORIGINALS)
After the war, Lyra Potter is utterly, completely, and unapologetically done with the wizarding world. The media? Shitstorm. The Ministry? Corrupt as ever. The so-called Light Lords? Idiots. The so-called Dark Lords? Even bigger idiots. So, despite her well-meaning (but infuriating) friends, Lyra packs up, flips the wizarding world the metaphorical bird, takes her godson Teddy, and vanishes. Her destination? Mystic Falls. A quiet, unassuming town where one of her Black ancestors once built a lavish estate-the Black Palace. She hopes for peace and quiet-a fresh start, away from magic, war, and endless expectations. But deep down? She knows better. There is no peace for her. Why? Because she is, after all, Death's Little Angel of Chaos. And a Potter. She doesn't seek trouble. Trouble finds her. And so, before she even realizes it, she's swept up in yet another whirlwind- Only this time, it's not scheming politicians, megalomaniac wizards, or dark prophecies. This time, it's- Vampires. Werewolves. Shapeshifters. Doppelgängers-apparently, she's one. An ancient ancestor who oddly approves of her. An annoying twin she has zero interest in. Two ridiculously dramatic vampire brothers. And an entire family of goddamn Originals. What has the world come to? Nothing. Just a storm called love hitting her in the most unexpected way. Her? Entangled with the Original Hybrid of all people? And did she mention she has her little godson with her? "You have got to be joking," she thinks.
The Shattered One
This is an original work, so if you plan to offer something, don't. She woke up fractured, wrong, and forgotten. The world she once knew is gone, twisted by a cataclysm known only as The Fade. Now, forests breathe, light drips like water, and creatures mimic human voices with uncanny precision. Time bends in impossible ways, and raw emotion manifests into monsters. Nothing is natural. Everything watches. In this new, devouring world, a lake calls to her. The sky whispers her name. Something ancient stirs-something that remembers what she once was, before she was broken and buried. As she journeys through the remnants of a shattered reality, hunted by the very fabric of emotion, she begins to uncover the truth of her origin and the role she was meant to play in a world unmade. But some secrets are buried for a reason. And in The Fade, even your feelings can kill you.

Every warning sign tells her to run, yet every stolen glance pulls her deeper into his orbit. As his devotion twists into control and his love bleeds into obsession, she's forced to confront the truth: some cages are built not of iron but of desire. In a game of predator and prey, can she resist the darkness that craves her-or will she surrender to a passion that was never meant to set her free? ⚠️ Content Warning: This book contains dark psychological themes, including stalking, obsession, manipulation, emotional control, anxiety, paranoia, and toxic relationships.

To atone for her passage between worlds, she must face the Lost Ones. Every time a human dies with deep regrets... they rot, and transform. These souls take shape, linger, attack.

Assigned to a sarcastic and unpredictable demon named Harley Blake, Alison must learn to survive, to fight, to make sense of this hidden world... all while resisting the strange bond forming between them. Harley is no guardian angel. She's blunt, fierce, and doesn't hide her contempt for humans. But behind the fangs, something slumbers. Something softer. And far more dangerous. And as the Lost Ones draw near... Alison begins to wonder: What if the most dangerous thing here... is what she's starting to feel for her own demon? A second chance. A deal with hell.

Veiled in Light and Ruin
Every year, Lyra's village gathers beneath the ancient statues of the Fates, offering prayers and sacrifices to keep the creeping darkness at bay. The Ruined Kingdom stands in the distance, a forbidden place where no one enters and no one leaves. A place ruled by a king who does not age, does not die, and does not care for the world beyond his walls. Lyra has never believed in fate, only in survival. With her mother's health failing, she is willing to do whatever it takes to save what little she has left. But when this year's ritual goes terribly wrong, Lyra is taken-ripped from the life she knows and thrust into the heart of a kingdom lost to time. There, she is told she has been chosen. That she, along with others, must vie for the favor of a king no one has seen in over a century. But something is wrong within the castle's walls. Whispers of the past haunt her steps, and the King-cold, untouchable, and shrouded in secrets-watches her too closely. As shadows stir and forgotten magic awakens, Lyra begins to question everything she's been told about the Ruined Kingdom. And, more importantly, about herself. Because the deeper she delves into the mystery of the King and the kingdom he rules behind the walls, the more she realizes: Some destinies are written in blood. And some fates are meant to be broken.
