She was never meant to survive, let alone escape.
In a land fractured by war and ruled by power-hungry elites, an unnamed girl is found half-dead in a marketplace, her mind shattered and her body marked by something unnatural. Rescued by rebels, she is taken beyond the Northern Pass, a refuge for those fleeing the grip of the Conclave and the horrors of the one they call Zareth.
But her presence is no accident.
Vaelric, a former Conclave scientist turned tyrant, has spent years perfecting the art of sigils, magic etched into skin. Most of his creations break. She did not. Now, with strange powers awakening inside her and whispers of prophecy trailing in her wake, the question is not who she was...
It's what she was made to be.

Heart of the Comet
Think ACOTAR with sharper teeth. Game of Thrones with more heart. The world wanted a warrior. The stars sent her instead. Heart Loave was never meant to be part of the stories. Not the girl with flour under her nails and numbers to balance. But the sky tore open, a stranger came cloaked in shadow, and the world decided she was prophecy incarnate. Now the kingdoms whisper of the Emissary's return. Of rot in the woods and stars that choose without mercy. Heart is no warrior, no chosen saint. Just a girl caught in the gravity of something ancient and cruel. But if the world insists on blood, maybe she'll bleed it dry.
Caged By Him
"WHY CAN'T YOU GET IT INSIDE YOUR HEAD?" He trapped my trembling body between his arms and slammed his fist into the wall. I flinch at the sound as I feel tears forming in my eyes. "I'M SICK AND TIRED OF YOUR CRYING. JUST ACCEPT THE FACT THAT YOU'RE NEVER LEAVING. THIS IS YOUR LIFE NOW, WITH ME" He spits, anger consuming his voice as I push myself further against the wall. Shutting my eyes closed and turning my face to the side as I do. Moments later, I feel his rough hand on my waist and his finger grazing my cheek. "Look at me, love." His hand grips onto my jaw, his thumb playing across my lower lip. He turns my face to meet his as I lower my gaze to the floor. He lowers himself to my level and I feel his breath fanning my cheek causing my breathing to become unsteady. "I love you so much, darling. But you need to learn. You need to learn that you won't be going anywhere. You're mine." With that being said, his other hand slides down to my waist "Your entire body, your mind, your soul. All mine." All I could do was tremble at his touch. How can someone so beautiful be so heartless? ~~~~~~~~~~ All a 19 year old Aurora Shaw wanted to do was work to make a living and volunteer at the orphanage.

He's been waiting for the perfect moment to kidnap her and finally make her his queen after 2 years of watching and stalking her every move.

After a few minutes we reached my apartment as I was about to get out he locked the doors I shivered feeling him turn towards me by now my eyes were glossy. I slowly turned to look at him the smell of blood was painted on him the tears rolled down my cheeks his thick thumb wiped them away my body was shaking I was terrified of this man when his skin made contact with mine my body tingled with a foreign emotion, I looked up at his eyes letting him touch me afraid he would kill me if I moved. "Goodnight my Queen" I shivered at the title he had given me, I was scared to the bone and I was not about to argue with him while he had a taste for blood the look in his eyes told me he still wanted more when he entered the car earlier on. He tenderly kissed my forehead lingering as my heart exploded I waited patiently and shut my eyes praying for him to remove his lips from my skin so I could go home. He finally did and when he unlocked the car doors I jumped out and hurried to my apartment not looking back at the devil in the car. I finally reached my apartment panting and shut the door sliding down my door crying hysterically, I could still feel his cold lips on me. What did I just witness tonight. What did I get myself into. I was scared of the future because I knew surely he would be back to check on his Queen.

He was a man of power, feared and worshipped in the same breath, ruling over the world of shadows where morality was a myth and sin was the only language spoken. Love? That was for the weak. He didn't do love. He didn't believe in innocence. Until her. She was untouched by the darkness he thrived in-a vision of purity, a forbidden fruit he had no right to crave. But the devil had never been one to deny himself temptation. And she... she was his greatest one. She should have run. He told her to. Instead, she stayed, unaware that the moment she stepped into his world, she became his. His to ruin. His to cherish. His purest sin. And now, even if heaven came calling-he'd rather burn than let her go.
