Ongoing, First published Apr 13, 2025
In a realm scorched by dragonfire and stirred by ancient magic, destiny brews in a chalice of betrayal and fate.

Astraea Bloodwine, 28 F, a gifted potion master, flees the shadows of scandal in the Moor of Nightshade after a single mistake threatens to not just destroy her name but her family's heritage. Inheriting a mysterious potions pub nestled in the dragon-rider dominion of the Hollow of Emberstone, she seeks to rebuild her life far from whispers and doubt.

But the Hollow of Emberstone is no quiet sanctuary. Its ruler, Valeric Emberstone -dragon rider, more than three centuries old, and haunted by secrets-never expected the storm Astraea would bring. Nor did his dragon, Draven, the most feared of them all, who senses a long-forgotten spark the moment Astraea crosses into their skies.

As tension ignites between a witch with fire in her veins and a warrior bound to his realm, old magics stir once more. When dragons begin to dream of things long buried and potions brew feelings even fate can't undo, Astraea and Valeric must confront the truth: soulmates aren't just legend-and fire recognizes its match.

Emberwine is a tale of potion-laced passion, soul-deep connection, and the flame that flickers even in the darkest of hollows.

Two Cursed Souls by LeeraIvy
28 parts Ongoing Mature
For thousands of years, the citizens of Asterria have lived at odds with the reclusive Clans who dwell within the Mountains of Donoa, and in recent times the tension has begun to erupt. An act of self defense which led to two lives lost spurred hostility on both sides, and a vindictive witch seeking revenge for the life of her slain kin invoked a dark curse upon Asterria's twin Princes. Now, two centuries past, Kyran and Konan Renhael have lived in fear of the manifestation of their curse as tensions continue to rise. The Clans have been lashing out with increasing aggression and most fear open attacks will soon follow, but as dark impulses and blooded bodies begin to follow in the Princes' wake, it is clear the Clans are not their only concern. In an effort to find a way to break the curse before it is too late, Kyran travels to a Clan village seeking the Matrons, the same circle of witches as the one who originally cursed him and his brother. There he meets the wild and cunning Ylva, one of the heads of the Matron order. Working his way into her good graces could get him closer to finding a way to break the curse, or ensnare him in a new one entirely. Either way, only one thing remains certain. Failure will leave Asterrians drowning in blood, and mark the dawn of another Dark Age. Warning: This book, while being a work of fiction, still deals with real and mature elements. There will be chapters dealing with manipulation, emotional and verbal abuse, gore, PTSD, torture, sexual content, and other topics.

Niccola is a demi-queen undercover in enemy territory. Her little sister went missing seven moons ago, but one lead remains: a picture of a woman's face, drawn by a diviner shortly after the disappearance. Tracking her down has led Niccola to Calis, the realm next door whose border with her own remains closed for a reason. There, the trail goes cold. Until, that is, Niccola runs into a man in the marketplace who bears a family resemblance to the woman she seeks. His name is Isaiah, crown prince of Calis, and he's investigating disappearances, too. They join forces, faking courtship to sneak Niccola into the palace and get Isaiah's wedding-minded mother off his back. It doesn't take long to suspect that a common threat might underpin both their realms' problems. And as Niccola begins to develop real feelings for Isaiah, she's faced with an impossible choice: reveal her secrets and risk breaking his trust, or leave him in order to chase down the woman who stole her sister... a woman whose forbidden magic comes with a cost that could bring both realms to ruin. ❖❖❖ Complete and fully edited.

*****BOOK ONE****** Set in a continent called Irevalen, where the skies are ruled by dragon-shifters - immortal beings who can take human form, but never fully shed their beast. Centuries ago, a Blood Treaty was made between dragons and the last surviving human kingdom. To maintain balance and peace, a dragon from the royal bloodline must bond with a human every 500 years - not just a marriage, but a soul-binding, deep magic deal that ensures dragons don't destroy the mortal realm with their fire and fury. The catch? The human bride is always chosen by fate. No one picks. No one can refuse. Or so they say. --- 🔥 The Male Lead: Kaelith Vyron, the current heir to the SKYCOURT throne - feared warrior, emotionless strategist, and cold-blooded dragon prince. Has rejected the idea of love his whole life. Is terrified of what the soul-bond might do to him (dragons who bond can be consumed by obsession). Is pissed that fate tied him to a weak, mortal girl. Thinks she'll break. Plans to scare her off. But she doesn't. And it wrecks him. --- 🕊️ The Female Lead: Liora Vane, 22-year-old healer's apprentice from the far southern coast. Orphaned young. Grew up with books, herbs, and freedom. Hates the idea of fate deciding who she marries. Thinks dragons are cruel, inhuman monsters. When she's taken from her village and presented to Kaelith, she fights back - hard. Swears she'll never belong to him. But then... she sees pieces of his humanity. And it terrifies her more than the fire ever did.

The Shape of Her Shadow

4 parts Ongoing Mature

Cursed to become a creature born of blood and fury, Vale Evermere was trained to hunt witches and purge the sin her ancestors left behind. Every order she follows keeps the curse dormant; every doubt feeds the monster inside. But when her latest mission leads her to Hermione Granger-a brilliant witch hiding behind Ministry lies-the line between duty and desire begins to break. Drawn to the very magic she was created to destroy, Vale must choose between the oath that binds her and the woman who makes her feel human. Love may be the only thing strong enough to silence the beast... or awaken it completely.
