Gemstones by Power6Is6Everything

What if the fire they feared... was the only thing that could save them? Red never asked to be chosen. Dragged into a world of ancient schools, elemental magic, and brutal expectations, she learns that power comes at a cost - and obedience is only ever demanded by those who fear your flame. But Red doesn't burn for them. As war erupts and secrets unravel - about her past, the voice in her head, and the dark figure who understands her too well - Red must decide what she's willing to destroy to claim the truth. Even if that means becoming the very thing they swore to stop. When loyalty fractures and the world begins to fracture with it, only one question remains: Is she the weapon... or the fire that ends everything?

For the prince between by Josieveil

To Love a Targaryen by 5oclocksomwhere

He came with fire. She only wanted to survive. Grace had learned to live quietly in the shadows of King's Landing - tending to her brother and keeping her head down. Until the day Prince Aemond Targaryen knocked on her door with lemon cakes in one hand and a warning in his eye. He said it was kindness. He said he was just checking on the sick. But he kept coming back. As war brews and dragons stir, Grace finds herself pulled into a world of silk lies and steel truths. Aemond is no longer the soft-spoken boy who once brought her medicine. He's colder. Sharper. But his eyes still burn only for her. And when love becomes a liability in a game ruled by fire and blood - the question isn't will they survive, but what will they sacrifice to protect each other? They say dragons do not weep. But those who love them do. "I should have let you go the day I knew I'd never be able to. But I was selfish. I held you like a secret - and secrets burn." - Aemond Targaryen, unsent letter

BOOK 1: Marked by Flame ( Currently Editing) by FableForge20

*****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.

Of Kingdoms and Vows by juniperdiane

For a hundred years, the Southern Kingdom has been at war. Its salvation comes not through the sword, but through a child. Princess Novalyn, the long-awaited heir, prophesied to end the bloodshed. Raised under the watchful eye of her mother and the council, Novalyn's life has been shaped by duty, diplomacy, and the constant reminder that her future is not her own. When her betrothal is sealed to Prince Ruan of the North, the fragile peace between their fractured kingdoms rests upon their union. Ruan arrives cold and unreadable, a prince forged in ice and discipline. To the court, he is a stranger; to Novalyn, he is both ally and a mystery. Yet beneath the formality lies a dangerous truth. Their marriage is as much about survival as it is about politics. As whispers of betrayal grow louder and old rivalries resurface, Novalyn begins to realize she is not merely a bride to be given away, she is a queen in the making. To step into her power, she must first decide...will she submit to the role others have written for her, or will she risk everything for the possibility of love, loyalty, and her own voice? Treachery brews in the shadows. A kingdom balances on the edge of ruin, and in the midst of it all, two hearts collide in a bond that could either heal centuries of division or shatter them forever. In this sweeping tale of duty and desire, betrayal and hope, love becomes the most dangerous weapon of all.
