Two warriors. One prophecy. And a love that could burn the world to the ground.
They built the Trials to break her. She'll burn their empire instead.
In a world ruled by the Ascended, the Lowborn are given a single chance at freedom - survive four deadly Trials inside the Academy. Most don't make it past the first. No one survives the last.
Nyra Vale was never meant to be chosen. A pit fighter with bloodied knuckles and a serpent-shaped mark she's spent her life hiding, Nyra steps into the Academy ready to fight - but not to play by their rules.
Kael Draven was raised by the very system built to crush her. Bound by an Oath to watch, not interfere, Kael is meant to be her silent judge. But the longer he observes her, the harder it becomes to obey - and the more dangerous his loyalty becomes.
As the Trials grow bloodier and whispers of a forbidden Vault awaken ancient fears, Nyra's survival is no longer about freedom.
It's about vengeance.
And she's done waiting for permission to rise.

The Prophecy Lied
Seventeen years ago, a daughter was born in flame. Raised by demons. Forged for conquest. Nyx, the only child of Dazareth-the King of the Underworld-is prophesied to bring the land of the living, Gaia, to its knees. Trained in fire, war, and obedience, she wears her power like a crown and walks with the pride of a weapon perfected. But on the eve of her descent into Gaia, secrets rise from the shadows of prophecy. Her mother-Lilith, a vanished mind-weaver-returns with a truth too dangerous to speak aloud. Nyx is not a conqueror. She is the cost. Betrayed and cast into a world she was meant to destroy, Nyx awakens powerless, her memories fractured, her runes sealed. The only clue to her past: a forest, a stranger, and a city where magic is tamed and truth is buried. Now, hidden among scholars and soldiers at the Academy of Arcanon, Nyx must unravel the legacy etched into her bones. But as her fire stirs, so do the cracks in the world-and in herself. Because Gaia remembers what Hell tried to erase. And so does she.Complete
The Caretaker He Bought
"You're not here to fall in love." "Trust me, sir... I don't even know what that means." She was sold like a possession-traded away by the very people who were supposed to protect her. At just seventeen, she finds herself in a cold, unfamiliar mansion owned by a powerful man known for his silence, strict rules, and a heartbreak he never talks about. His only condition? Take care of his one-year-old daughter. Don't speak unless spoken to. Don't enter his study. Never touch him. For her, following orders is nothing new. Obedience has kept her alive this long. But the baby's soft cries break something inside her, and her tender touch begins to warm a house that forgot what love felt like. He tells himself she's just a caretaker. Just a temporary solution. But night after night, she shatters rule after rule... And soon, his heart becomes the final one to break. 🎯 𝐆𝐞𝐧𝐫𝐞 Genre: Romance / Drama / Slow Burn / Hurt-Comfort Age rating: 16+ (emotional abuse themes, mature emotional content)

He watches her. He follows her. He knows her every move. To him, she isn't just a woman-she's the obsession, the one light in a world he'll burn down to possess. Livia Vale never wanted to be seen this closely. But the stranger who shadows her isn't a stranger anymore-he's in her life, her thoughts, her veins. Every warning sign tells her to run, yet every stolen glance pulls her deeper into his orbit. As his devotion twists into control and his love bleeds into obsession, she's forced to confront the truth: some cages are built not of iron but of desire. In a game of predator and prey, can she resist the darkness that craves her-or will she surrender to a passion that was never meant to set her free? ⚠️ Content Warning: This book contains dark psychological themes, including stalking, obsession, manipulation, emotional control, anxiety, paranoia, and toxic relationships.

Savage Bonds: Cerise's Awakening
Cerise was trained to survive. Not to shift. She was an elite assassin on Earth-silent, precise, and bound by protocol. Magic didn't exist. Fate was a myth. And wolves? Just animals. But when a mission fractures the sky and tears her from her world, Cerise wakes in a realm that defies everything she knows. The ground pulses. The air hums. Strangers capture her, test her blood. She meets Lexi May, a mousy girl, who's just as lost as she is when they learn they hold shifting or magic abilities. Cerise doesn't have a wolf. Or so she thinks. Now, whispers in a language she doesn't understand crawl beneath her skin. Her instincts shift. Her body betrays her secrets. She didn't come here to be chosen. She came to survive. And if she's something more than human now-they'll regret finding her first.
Healer's Mark
She wears gloves like armor. He bleeds silver instead of blood. And when she touches him - the world remembers what it means to burn. Lysara Vale was once a healer. Now she's cursed - her touch doesn't mend, it reveals. Pain. Secrets. Death. When a wounded royal soldier named Kael is brought to her, she swears to keep her distance. But Kael doesn't want to be healed. He wants her touch - even if it kills him. Their bond is forbidden. Their magic is alive. And every time they touch, something ancient wakes beneath their skin. 🔥 A story of ruin and devotion. Of gods buried in shame and lovers who refuse to die quietly. Perfect for fans of dark academia, star-crossed lovers, and slow-burn obsession.Complete
