To remember is rebellion. To dream is war.
Some dreams are too ancient to forget. Some memories never belonged to you at arl.
In a world where dreams are closely monitored and wiped clean each morning, Eirene works in a clinic tasked with keeping sleep safe and silent.
But when a stranger murmurs her name, her carefully constructed life begins to unravel. Whispers from forgotten nights follow her. Symbols she can't explain burn under her skin. And one haunting truth refuses to let go:
She has been here before.
As the mysterious severance stirs beneath the seventh layer of the dreamrealm, Eirene is drawn into a hidden war between memory and control, past lives, and present power. And at its heart, a boy who remembers every version of her, even when she does not remember herself.
With ancient sigils, forbidden rituals, and fractured souls awakening, Eirene must cross the dreamlayers to uncover the truth about who she is... and what she was meant to become.
Blending lush mythology, haunting mystery, and lyrical prose, The Waking Dream is a breath-taking fantasy debut about memory, identity, and the quiet rebellion of those who dare to remember.

The Cursed Prince
In a kingdom where curses are more than mere fairy tales, an ancient castle stands hidden behind walls of dark thorns, forgotten by all but the bravest and the most foolish. For within those shadowed halls slumbers a prince cursed by his own heart's betrayal. Once a ruler feared for his power and beauty, he now lies in a spellbound sleep, imprisoned by a vengeful sorceress who demanded a price for his cruelty: eternal rest, unless someone awakens him and binds their fate to his. Mira has never believed in fairy tales. Life in her village is one of harsh reality, where survival depends on wit and willpower. But when her family's future hangs in the balance, she's driven to the one place her people have always feared. Rumors of a sleeping prince and a curse that can be broken are all she has to go on, yet desperation leaves her no choice. But awakening the prince sets a far greater plan in motion, and the darkness she thought she'd face is only the beginning. Now, bound to a prince whose shadows dance with danger and desire, Mira must learn to navigate a world of magic, betrayal, and a fate that pulls them both toward something neither can escape. The only question is, who will break first-the girl with fire in her veins or the prince whose heart has long since turned to stone?Concluída
The Ninth Prince - An Epic Fantasy Romance
When the last of the Old Origins ended the High Humans from the world, the dragons went silent with the elves. Centuries later, the silence begins to stir. Iryn had always been a girl of peculiar gifts - born without her kingdom's magic, yet cursed to hear the language of all things: beasts, wind, even lies. Raised at court beside her childhood friend Prince Dimitri, she once believed her place was fixed - until a stranger from a foreign land and dreams of golden eyes followed her from the flames. When Reiss, a guard from the fiery kingdom of Trishüdel - or so he claims; appeared in her court reminding her of past memories - danger starts to stir. But the ember in his gaze burns too old, too knowing. And when dragons return to Boirl in whispers through white fire, Iryn's cursed blood may be the key to why. Caught between a prince bound to duty and a man bound to secrets, Iryn is drawn into a dangerous inheritance that could unmake her world.
Linger
Ira has always lived slightly out of sync with the world. A 27-year-old artist drifting between rejection emails and half-finished sketches, she's grown used to the quiet ache under her skin - that feeling something important is just out of reach. Her days blur into lukewarm coffee, too-loud clocks, and dreams she can't quite shake. Dreams of black sand, twin moons, and a boy with storm-colored eyes who seems to remember her. When a strange mark begins to glow on her wrist - delicate, crescent-shaped, and definitely not a birthmark - Ira writes it off as stress. Lack of sleep. Maybe delusion. Until she sees him. In the metro station. On the page. At her door. A man who shouldn't exist outside her sketchbook - but stands in her living room with a voice like silk and eyes like the end of the world. He doesn't tell her his name. Not right away. And when he does, it tastes like something she was never supposed to remember. Rei. As her memories begin to blur with dreams, and the world starts glitching around her - Ira is forced to question everything. Familiar people vanish. Reality slips. And every line she draws pulls her closer to a truth her body remembers... even if her mind has tried to forget. There are gaps in her past that don't make sense. A childhood disappearance no one explains. A voice she's heard before, whispering from somewhere behind the veil. And a pattern of disappearances that all seem to follow in her wake. Because Ira isn't just remembering Rei. She's waking something older. And it's waking her back. Linger is a slow-burn romantic mystery woven with fantasy, memory, and myth. It's about the soft terror of forgetting, the sharp intimacy of being seen, and the aching pull of a connection that defies logic, distance, and time. Some doors, once opened, don't close quietly. And some names, once spoken, can't be taken back.Concluída
The Story of The Sun & Moon
One born to burn. One born to vanish. Two brothers fated to rise as gods... and fall as legends. Thirteen-year-old Arsene Zagros has always dreamed of the Day of Selection. Of standing beside his twin brother, of watching history unfold, of seeing the divine descend from the heavens to name their chosen. He never imagined that fate would arrive without a sound. Without mercy. Without warning. On the eve of celebration, something breaks. Something dies. And Arsene- smiling, curious, unaware- wakes into a world that feels the same... but isn't. In a realm where spirits haunt the night, where gods hide among mortals, and where the cost of destiny is more than just a name- a boy blessed with innocence will soon learn: Not all choices are seen. Not all guardians are ready. And not all stories begin with the truth. Author's Note: This is my first story and is based on a D&D campaign I've taken inspiration from long ago. If you enjoy fantasy, twin dynamics, and slow-burning mystery, I hope you'll give it a read. Feedback (and kindness) are always welcome :)
TELL ME WHO I AM! | Dark Romance | Psychological Thriller |
She wakes up in a stranger's bed, a diamond ring glimmering on her finger - a symbol of promises she cannot remember - a vow forged in a past that's been stolen from her. Everyone says she's fortunate. That she's blessed. That a beautiful home, a devoted fiancé, and a spotless future await her. But when her pulse falters under his gentle touch... when her skin shivers instead of warming - something deep within resonates with the alarming feeling that something is profoundly, dangerously wrong. He insists it's for her own safety - that something awful happened, that healing simply takes time - but there's a fire in his eyes, a possessiveness he cannot mask. And somewhere in her mind, a locked box rattles against its chains. And at night, in the quiet... she dreams of another man she does not recognize. Until one day he steps out of the shadows. Not with flowers, but with fire, with danger, with a confession forged in the pure agony of a love forgotten. Not with comfort, but with a storm in his eyes and a voice that trembles when he says- "You promised to remember me," he whispers. "Even if the whole world made you forget." He is not kind. He is not patient. His love is wild - a consuming force - a sin that feels more elemental than redemption. The moment he reaches for her, the carefully woven lie starts to unravel, thread by thread, until the awful, beautiful truth emerges. She doesn't know his name. But her soul does. Now, stranded between two men - the man who offers refuge within a perfect illusion and the man who holds the key to a catastrophic reality - she must make a choice. To stay safely oblivious... or to break free and remember the life that was stolen from her. Because someone made sure she forgot. And they'll do whatever it takes to keep it that way. Some truths are dangerous - and some memories are worth everything.Concluída
Once Upon a Fairytale
Avoid looking into those golden eyes. One look is enough and you will be lost forever. Once upon a time, beyond the forests and mountains, where the leaves always wore the color of autumn, a girl with great talent grew up, with her mother and father. One day, however, their happiness was stolen by tragedy. Her mother fell ill and death called her to the other side. Nothing was the same anymore. Her father remarried. And in the end, time took him away too. Iris was left alone with her stepmother and stepsister. They made her a maid, a slave. A prisoner of a life she hated. But something deep inside her prevented her from leaving the house she grew up in - her home. There, as a child, she created all the miracles with her mother and wanted to continue doing so, to give joy to those less fortunate. Like when she made a dress for the butcher's wife, whom her husband no longer loved, that made her irresistible to him again. Or when she made a shirt for her best friend Jace that was supposed to protect him from the edge of swords, since he liked to provoke the royal guards. Her little secret. But one day, her peaceful life decides to take a completely different direction and everything goes wrong. She meets a prince. She helps her stepsister win him for herself. And ancient family secrets get involved when a demon she is magically bonded with appears. A long-hidden story begins to unfold before her, revealing the truth about her mother, her ancient ancestors, and herself. And it all started with her simply taking off the necklace she should never have taken off.Concluída
