Beneath a Dying Sky
In a kingdom on the brink of collapse, Lady Elira Viremont is bound by duty, not desire. Promised to a king she's never met, her future is sealed in ink and blood. But as the skies darken and warships of House Thorne descend upon the capital, everything unravels.
The fall of Morwynd is swift and brutal-noble banners torn, alliances shattered, and the cries of the lowborn drowned beneath the chaos of invasion. Hidden behind the fortress walls, Elira watches the world she knew burn, haunted by the weight of survival and sacrifice.
With her father and the king both slain, and enemy soldiers battering the last gate between her and the storm, Elira must decide: will she shatter under the crown forged for her, or rise beneath a dying sky?

The Thorn and The Crown: A Love Forged In Curse And Flame
The Thorn and The Crown Written by Francisca In a realm where magic is forbidden and hearts are bound by duty, love might be the most dangerous curse of all. Elira, the quiet daughter of a provincial noble, has always dreamed of freedom beyond her family's cold walls. But when her kingdom teeters on the brink of ruin, she is forced into a political marriage with Prince Kaelen - the exiled heir of the cursed Velmorian dynasty. A prince shrouded in shadows. A crown tainted by blood. Kaelen bears a monstrous curse that twists both body and soul, isolating him from the living and binding him to a forgotten, crumbling palace ruled by ancient magic and spectral creatures. His touch burns. His gaze bewilders. His secrets could break nations. As Elira navigates courtly intrigues, deadly creatures, and the treacherous whispers of a fractured realm, she discovers that the line between duty and desire is as thin as a blade's edge. Slowly, against her will, she falls for the man behind the monstrous mask - and unearths an ancient prophecy that hints she alone might hold the key to breaking his curse. But saving Kaelen means defying kings, awakening forbidden magic, and facing a tragic destiny written long before she was born. A tale of dark fantasy, forbidden love, cursed kingdoms, and battles that scar the soul. When thorns entwine crowns, will love conquer the darkness - or be consumed by it?
Entropy
He walks forward, pressing the blade into his throat. His skin is taunt against the serrated edge, and blood beads around it until it drips down his neck in a crimson trail. My eyes widened, wanting it. He is looking at me with those dangerous, glinting green eyes, daring me. "Kill me, then. If you feel nothing, you can kill me. Then you can leave.The choice is up to you. It always has been," He whispers. His words leave me as cold as the blade at his throat. My heart is subjected to this stabbing pain, like I'd turned the knife on myself, and I would rather it be like that. "But if you don't," he whispers," you are mine and all mine. We will rule the dawn of a new age, we will complete our bond, and you will forget about her. Make your choice." I can hear my heart beat in my ears, and I swallow agaisnt the rush. These are my options. Kill him, or agree to be his. I make my own choice. I can not take my freedom away. I can not be the mate he wants, but I can not kill him. With a deep breath, I turn the knife on myself. Aurora, a girl with only one name and abandoned at birth in a war torn land, finds herself lost in a sea of witches, drowning in everything she can never have. Or so she thinks, the night a divine interference rips her from her home leads to a butterfly effect of deadly, chaotic spirals. Something dwells in the unknown shadows of Aurora's soul, something lurking just behind the screen of consciousness, something passed down through the generations as greater beings try to avoid the annihilation of our world. Is she just another part of the fall out, another victim to an unending tragedy between two cosmic beings? There's only one thing that can help her, and it stands before her in the form of a green eyed werewolf mercilessly killing the witches she's grown up loving. She thinks he can protect her, but what will she do when he needs protection...from her? #12 in destruction #11 in strife

In The Hollow Where He Waits
This is a story that delves into the shadowed corners of the human spirit, where fear is a constant companion and strength is a flickering ember waiting to be fanned. It speaks of those who have been broken by life's tempests, yet possess an indomitable will to survive, finding solace not in the comforting glow of familiarity, but in the ethereal presence of a guiding entity - a 'Ghost' - that whispers resilience in the face of despair. It's for the lost souls who navigate the desolate landscapes of their existence, clinging to the faintest hope of a love that can bloom against all odds, a love as untamed and wild as the deepest wilderness. The narrative follows individuals who have learned to converse with the silence, finding their sanctuary not in noisy crowds, but in the hushed intimacy of the unknown. Their deepest connections are not forged in the bright, scrutinizing light of day, but in the potent, intoxicating embrace of what remains hidden, in the quiet battles waged within the soul. It celebrates the strength that lies dormant within, the survival that often goes unseen, acknowledging that even in the most desolate terrains, a profound and fierce love can indeed take root and flourish. The book is an exploration of resilience, a testament to the enduring power of the human heart to seek and find connection, even when shrouded in the deepest of shadows. It's for those who have walked through the whispering woods of their own lives, not just seeking solace, but discovering something far more elemental and profound: the realization that their deepest truths and strongest bonds often bloom in the most unexpected, and sometimes, the most silent of places.Complete
