Every generation, the gods choose five heirs from five powerful kingdoms to compete in the Ascension Games - a divine trial of magic, wit, and survival. The prize? A throne. A crown. And for one victor, dominion over all five realms.
But when the gods choose unexpected heirs, their rise sparks something far more dangerous than competition.
Friends turned foes. Family turned enemies. Who can they trust, if not even themselves?
Because the Games aren't just trials.
They're a lie.
There are more heirs.
More kingdoms.
And the winner doesn't just rule - they rewrite the world.
As secrets surface, loyalties break, and forbidden loves ignite, the group must decide:
Will they fight to take their throne?
Or burn the system that crowned them?
For fans of Fourth Wing, The Hunger Games, and A Court of Thorns and Roses - this romantasy blends high-stakes competition, ancient magic, slow-burn romance, and devastating betrayals in a world where power is blood-deep... and no one leaves untouched.

Drain My Soul
- CONTENTS MATURE! 18+ scenes - Celeste believed nothing more than being a normal girl, in a normal street, in a normal world but nothing can just be normal? Right? Well this idea of a normal life, stops for Celeste and she goes back to her parents home town, where she is forced by law to a mating ball and is convinced she is something she is not.... But when she meets a blue eyed handsome man that is not who he seems, she is intrigued and is ready to explore. Follow Celeste on her journey to find out who she really is, discover the world she believes is insane and will these blue eyes help her? ------ "I effect you as much as you effect me and it pains me to see my mate with another" he whispers in my ear. I gulp deeply and I want to drop to my knees, to plead that my life is in his hands. Although I gulp and shake my head. "Fine, but I'll be there and I'll be watching!" He whispers in hush tones. I gulp and feel the pain again in my chest. His blue eyes come back to my own and I don't even give him a smirk. He lets go of my jaw and with in a flash I see him leave. The thought in my mind is that my mate is fucking hot and I don't know how long I can deny that for or deny the inseparable connection between us. ---- A/N Just a quick note to say that this book indeed does need heavy editing and as a Co-writer I find this story not in my favour. I know the main character Celeste may come across as mean and as a comment mentioned 'annoying' this book will go through editing. But I'd you choose to still read then fantastic! It's our first 'mate' and 'vampire' book so please be kind and all comments will be taken into consideration. Thank you L&R xComplete
My Past or Present!
A Past and Present definitely involve the people in it, but they both have more than that to offer. The situations, the choices made for you and the choices made by you in the past were and the choices would be made for you and by you in the present are as important as the people. Is it possible to fight everything in the past and engulf the present? Or will the external factors will delay the desired result of such fight even after going through the fight? The story of another confused person who is self misjudged and misjudged by others in a whole level or maybe only partly. Let us see whether the light can reach the person's heart while giving it to the other due to just a coincidence like the person thinks. --------------- note: need to read Past or Present to under stand this better...Complete
