A Plaything for the Dragons
❝Two dragons and their dirty little plaything.❞ I didn't have much to lose in the war of Dacva, but it left me scarred for the rest of my life. I'm just a red female dragon, scraping by from one day to the next in the Banished realm by doing petty crimes. It's enough for my meagre existence. But when I went from petty crimes to attempting an assassination on the sleeping princess out of sheer desperation, it didn't end well. When I'm caught and interrogated by the banished Kings, I must do everything to keep them from finding out the truth of my lineage. However, it gets harder with the two Banished Kings constantly breathing down my neck and taking too much interest in my scars and my scales. Before I know it, I'm their plaything, and they seem to find it hard to keep their hands off me and each other. As much as it tempts me to bare myself to them completely for them to claim every inch of me, I need to keep my secret. Once they find out about my lineage, it would turn into the bloodiest war the dragons have ever fought. I don't want another war, but with the Banished Kings wanting to possess more than my body, a war seems inevitable. How long can I stall the inevitable? I have fought a bloody war before; I could fight another if needed. But with my secrets unravelling and the fate playing a silly joke with me again, would the Kings accept me after learning my truth? Or would they reject me and toss me away after having their fill of playtime with me? ~ A stand-alone book.

The Hollow Prince
COMPLETED. *NSFW* Auralie doesn't believe in fae stories-not the ones whispered by dying villagers, not the ones about cursed woods or monsters that eat your heart. But when girls begin to vanish and strange symbols bleed from the bark of the forest, she crosses the veil in search of answers. What she finds is him. Unmoving. Inhuman. Wearing a crown of antlers and eyes like cut emeralds, sharp with amusement. He speaks in riddles. Smiles like a threat. And calls her little moth, like a name he's been saving. The first time they meet, she draws his blood. The second, he offers her a bargain. The third, he consumes her. The Hollow Prince says worse things hunt her now-creatures that wear her face, sing her name, and slip into her dreams. He claims he's the only thing standing between her and the dark. But the deeper Auralie goes, the more twisted the forest becomes-and the harder it is to tell whether the prince is her captor, her shield, or the very thing she was warned to fear. There is a curse. A game. And a price that was never hers to pay.Complete![The Book of Adventures [EDITING SOON]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/268008371-256-k876704.jpg)

A child on the brink of death, and when faced with Death herself, the child just couldn't bear it and he begged. "Lady... Can you please end my suffering?"

His peculiarity piqued her interest. And instead of taking the child's life like how he wishes, the lady in velvet cloak took him in. Will life blossom fondly to the child after being abandoned by his family? Will the lady even understand the meaning of life for others? Or will they end up being fond of one another?

In the Circle of Stones
In a forest that listens, remembers, and waits, three children step into a story older than the stars. In the fae village of Thistlemoor, stories are more than bedtime tales - they are warnings, half-truths, and sometimes, prophecies. When Prince Aurin, gentle-hearted Lira, and brave Corwin wander into the woods to hear an old fae woman's tale, they don't expect the forest to respond. But the trees whisper. The water watches. And the circle of stones begins to stir. Beneath the roots lies the grave of a cleric who gave too much, and the friend who would not rot. Around them: a tangle of forgotten magic, poisonous beauty, and truths the fae would rather remain buried. As the children are pulled deeper into the forest's memory, they must follow the signs and decide what must be kept alive, and what must finally be let go. Because some stories don't end. They wait. And in the circle of stones, all things bloom again.Complete

The city is governed by a fairy king and queen, whose rulership maintains harmony among the groups. But cracks begin to form.

Drawn to Soul, a fairy boy with fragile charm and quiet ambition, she hides their love. But beneath his sweetness, Soul harbours darker intentions. When a stolen kiss leads him to the stone that holds Freya's power, the city begins to tremble.

For the fae, magic is everything: status, power, wealth, honor. For Vera Reite, a fae born with no magic, it is a shameful reminder that she will never amount to anything.

Those that go missing and find themselves at the mercy of the beast are never seen or heard from again. Fear quickly takes hold of the fae court; it's only a matter of time before their whole world is destroyed by this creature. However, it offers Vera a glimmer of hope. When she learns of it, she ventures into the wood to kill the beast, believing that she will be able to absorb the magic it has stolen. But the woods are as dangerous as the beast, and Vera soon finds herself lost. In a stroke of luck, she comes across an old manor deep in the forest where a strange boy is sealed away. If Vera wishes to slay the beast, she will first have to uncover the secret of the manor and its prisoner before it's too late. 𝐀 𝐟𝐚𝐞 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐦𝐚𝐠𝐢𝐜. 𝐀 𝐩𝐫𝐢𝐬𝐨𝐧𝐞𝐫 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐚 𝐝𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐥𝐲 𝐬𝐞𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐭.
