He said no to a stranger in a dream-and doomed them both.
Obsidian was just a boy when the dragons fell silent. Seven years before a world-changing war, he was the last full-blooded male dragon on the continent, unknowingly tethered to a powerful and dangerous force.
She came to him dead, yet smiling-Volka, the phoenix queen, promising warmth and attention, seeking something else entirely. He only meant to be kind. But kindness has a cost.
Now hunted, haunted, and hardened by loss, Obsidian must confront the devastation of a war he never wanted. His story is one of soul-wounds, impossible choices, and a power greater than fire.
What he destroys... will never rise again.
This novel precedes the events of Pyroxene's Journey and lays the foundation for the unraveling truth behind dragons, phoenixes, and the mind that once held them together.

The Last Dragon Song
Jeanette Valemere grew up believing in a world no one else could see- a kingdom of dragons, elves, satyrs, and cyclops, where her grandfather once flew with the King of Dragons himself. But when tragedy struck, the truth was stripped away. Her family told her it was only fantasy. The book that held her bond was taken. And she was forced to forget. Years later, on a class trip to Japan, a stranger with golden-flecked eyes finds her. He claims to know her name, her past, and the mark hidden on the bottom of her foot. He says their world-her world-is dying without her. Jeanette laughs it off. Until the dreams return. Until the book finds her again. Until she stands once more in Mythraenys, where dragons take human form and every bond has a price. Torn between the life she's built and the truth she abandoned, Jeanette must reclaim what was lost, face a friend turned traitor, and decide whether to fight for a world she was born to save. Because in the end, only one song can awaken the last dragon... and it may already be too late.Complete
The Rune of the Forge: Rebirth in the Lands Between
He died in a workshop, proud of his last creation - a flawless necklace shaped by his own hands. The next second, a gun barrel and two words ended everything: "Nothing personal." When he wakes again, it isn't in the world he knew. The air tastes too alive, the flowers glow too brightly, and the face in the pond is not his own. Obsidian skin. Hair braided like flame. Eyes molten, swirling with fire. Worse - he's a child again. This is the Hinterland, home of the Shaman Village... and the birthplace of Marika, the girl who will one day ascend as goddess of the Golden Order. She is a child too, curious and alone. In this quiet village, an unlikely friendship forms: the girl of fate and the boy of ash. But fate is never gentle. The Hornsent, zealots of the Crucible, will raid the village in fire and blood. Thoryn will fall, his body crumbling to ash and seeping into the earth... only to return centuries later, reforged by the world itself. By then, Marika will no longer be the girl he knew. She will be queen, goddess, and tyrant of Order. And Thoryn Ashblood, the boy reborn in obsidian and flame, will carry his own Rune - the Rune of the Forge - to stand as her rival. Creation or Order. Rebirth or Permanence. The Forge or the Erdtree. The Lands Between will burn anew.
An Accord for Development (An Elden Ring Two-Shot)
"Arise now, ye Tarnished. Ye dead, who yet live. The call of long-lost grace speaks to us all!" It was a simple, yet grand purpose to those given a second chance by the Light of Grace. To become Elden Lord and claim the Elden Ring. Many would be emboldened by the flame of that ambition, and many more would perish at the hands of those who wished nothing more than to see the Tarnished dead. Such was the way things were in the Lands Between, shattered and fractured to the point of chaos between its residents. Only a select few would be guided by Grace, however only one would truly be gifted with something incredible. A gift that would render the physical well-being of a soul... unworried in the face of death. Yet the mind of that same individual would only be further damaged from it. So what did it mean to have true immortality? A blessing? Or merely a foul curse in disguise? One Tarnished warrior would grow bitter to it nonetheless, all the while cherishing the one gift he truly had. A friend. One he would do anything to protect, and one he would grow to love in spite of fate itself. This is an Elden Ring Two-Shot story; a Male reader X Melina story.

BOOK 1: Marked by Flame ( Currently Editing)
*****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.Complete
