In the year 2046, Sicily's olive groves whisper secrets under the moonlight-and Yuushen Accardi has always listened.
Quiet, dutiful, and haunted by dreams he can't explain, Yuushen is accepted into Umbra Notics Academy-a prestigious boarding school known for shaping the next generation of peacekeepers: the Exorvanes. These elite hunters are praised for protecting humanity from a mysterious species called Morpharions-creatures of shifting form and forgotten origin.
But when Yuushen stumbles upon a bleeding Morpharion in the academy's forbidden wing-and it doesn't attack him-everything begins to unravel.
The deeper he digs, the more the truth bleeds through the cracks: the Exorvanes are not saviors, and the Morpharions may be more human than the ones who hunt them. Together with his sister, Yuushen sets out to prove that harmony is possible.
But peace has a price.
And Yuushen?
He's not who he thought he was.
Not human.
Not innocent.
Not safe.
As reality twists and fractures, and voices whisper from the shadows of his mind, Yuushen must ask himself:
Can a monster save anything at all?

An echo of Kings
"How do you mourn the dead, when the world says they never existed?" In the Kingdom of Varkhaz... truth is dictated by the stroke of a brush, and history can be rewritten with a trace of ink. Feria Hagalder spent the first fourteen years of her life confined within a 'golden cage,' and the following four years as a 'ghost' hidden deep within the forest. She is the survivor of her family's massacre. Yet, what is far more terrifying than the edge of a blade is the fact that her family members were erased from every record, as if they had never existed in this world at all. But amidst the silence, Feria hears voices... They are the fragments of distorted memories, visions of things that do not exist, and echoing reminders that her 'identity' might not be the role she is currently playing. As vengeance begins to devour the "little lamb" mask she has forged, Feria must make a choice: remain hidden in the shadows for the rest of her life, or step back into the vortex of lies to reclaim her erased name. In a world where anomalies are an omen of doom... she is willing to become a demon to rewrite the truth with her own blood. 📖 What to Expect ✔ Dark Fantasy & Cosmic Horror ✔ Psychological Dread & Isolation ✔ The Mystery ✔ Ancient Gods & Eldritch Curses ✔ Slow Burn Character Growth ✔ Loss of Humanity ⚠️ Content Warnings ✔ Violence & Gore ✔ Psychological Trauma & Gaslighting ✔ Body Horror ✔ Dark/Mature Themes 📅 Update Schedule ✔ weekly Updates - every Wednesday & Sunday ★ Schedule Notice: Due to health issues, updates will be irregular.

The sisters and the forbidden chamber
Everyone thought she was dead. They were wrong. Now she's hunting two sisters who don't even know why. Staying alive? That's the biggest fight of all. | Here's a teaser: Then, she felt it again. But this time, the skin wasn't that cold. It was quite warm. She closed her eyes, taking a deep breath, trying to prepare herself for what she might see, and looked down. That didn't help her at all though, she still gasped, her gasp echoing eerily in the quiet night air; her heart still raced as though in a marathon; her breathing still hitched; a shiver still ran sharply down her spine. There was Vivienne, lying in the grass, a bullet through her heart, limbs mangled, blood everywhere, eyes lifeless. Lydia-against all her instincts-kneeled down beside Vivienne's body, squeezing her wrist tightly. There was no pulse. | I would really appreciate it if u vote and comment! I don't mind criticism!
The Princess & Her Four Knights
She thought she was an only child. She thought her mom's bedtime stories were just stories. She was wrong about everything. After a crash that kills her mother and steals her voice, 14-year-old Sofia wakes up in a hospital-mute, alone, and staring into the eyes of four older brothers who thought she died as a baby. Her name was a lie. Her life was a cover. And now... the truth could kill them all. The bedtime stories her mother once whispered? They were coded warnings. Clues to a dark legacy tied to powerful enemies-and the dangerous game Sofia and her brothers were born into. Now, silence is her weapon. Family is her only shield. And trust? A luxury they can't afford. To survive, Sofia must decode her mother's secrets, stay one step ahead of those who want her gone-and write a new ending. Because the old one? Was never hers. Found family. Fierce brothers. Deadly secrets. Welcome to the game. 📖 Bonus content & exclusive chapters: https://substack.com/@theprincessher4knightsComplete
The Traitor's Wife
My grief is a lie. His guilt a weapon. And remembering will destroy whoever I used to love. Maybe this was it. Maybe she had already crossed the line between the living and the lost. The thought of reuniting with Alexei, of seeing him again, wherever he was, felt less terrifying than stepping through that door to meet his killer. Death, at least, would have been merciful. Forget everything you think you know about mafia romance. This isn't a story about an innocent girl stumbling into a dangerous world. Claire lived in that world, she just can't remember how... or what it cost her. A love story where the deepest betrayal may be the one you inflict on yourself. Fair warning: this book will break you, reshape you, and leave you desperate for answers you're too afraid to face. ⚠️ Content Disclaimer ⚠️ This work contains mature themes and potentially triggering content, including but not limited to: violence, death, emotional abuse, manipulation, trauma, sexual tension, and morally complex relationships.
