The Draconic Empire is crumbling. The Byndrossar Rebellion has torn away its northern reaches, and now, star-born wanderers claw at its fringes. Once, the thousand-year-long Draconic Peace reigned. Now, blood stains the empire's eroding legacy.
Prince Drago faces a dilemma: tradition and Draconic honour demand he preserve what remains of his father's empire, yet reason whispers that change is the only path to survival. His vision of the future-diplomacy over war, change over stagnation-clashes with the ambitions of his brothers who see strength only in the sword.
As King Urdemor VII scrambles for the pieces, the cracks plastered over a thousand years show. The fall of Scalicia is merely the drizzle before a storm-one that will decide the fate of an empire, the future of its people, and the destiny of a prince torn between duty, ambition, and the weight of history.
Will Drago find a way to forge a new future, or will the tides of war and betrayal drown him before he can even take flight?

The Hazards of My Chosen Profession (on hiatus)
Michael also known as "Wolf" (because of a patch he wears on his kit and helmet) is a member of what was the 75th Ranger Regiment. He finds himself a veteran of a war between humanity and anthros. While he doesn't exactly hate them he doesn't exactly trust them either despite their efforts to rebuild the relationship between species. Unfortunately a good chunk of humanity and anthro kind was wiped out due to the war. But due to the anthros ability to reproduce faster they were able to recover much faster leaving humanity at a loss. Michael finds himself alone and on the run from a one of the most dangerous anthro militaries (at least to humans), known as the Obsidian Front. They continue to hunt down and kill humans forces despite the end to the war, causing proxy wars and often large scale skirmishes between them and remaining human militias.

The King's Courtier
This story is a romantic fantasy set in the future. Keep in mind each chapter is 10 page long. In the year 2200, the world is no longer ruled by presidents or individual governments. The entire globe is ruled by a single immortal king - King Sulfur. Continents are now "categories" separating people in terms of talent. Aurelia, the protagonist, is apart of the beauty category. Although Elexia is a world in which everyone is satisfied, those in the beauty and slavery categories still face oppression. Those in her category are to become escorts and prostitutes when they're of age, not given an alternative choice in contrast to those in every other category. Aurelia was born to become the king's personal escort despite her impeccable talents in each category and when she was taken to the castle, she kept true to herself and held on to her sharp tongue. She soon realized that the castle hides many secrets. She was met with the anonymous eight who were King Sulfur's closest friends. No one knew their true purpose and looks beyond the castle's court because the castle's magic would erase everyone who stepped out's memory of them. The two strongest of the eight turn out to be the main love interests of Aurelia. While she tries to resolve her unrequited feelings for a man she formerly despised, she realizes that she has grown attached to the king. She simultaneously wrestles feelings for her old best friend and tries to discover with whom her heart truly lies. TW: oppression, sexism, vulgar language and scenes. Mature content and intimate scenes present.
