She doesn't need saving.
She needs a reason not to burn the whole damn world down.

Azaria is a hunter. A protector. A girl with blood on her hands and a bow that never misses. Her father died in a war against dragons - and ever since, she's made it her mission to kill anything with fangs, claws, or magic.

Mystical creatures? Monsters.
Love? A weakness.
Trust? Not in this life.

She's too busy keeping her broken family alive to care about softness. Too busy surviving to let herself feel anything at all.

But when a hunt goes wrong and someone ends up dead, Azaria's whole world begins to unravel - secrets, blood, and something ancient stirring in the dark.

She doesn't run from monsters.
She shoots first and never asks questions.

And if the gods want a war?

She'll give them one.

Azira's whole world consisted of being a hero. The daughter of the Dynamic Duo, she was destined to fulfill her role as the dutiful daughter in the Heroes Academy. A world where those with superhuman powers are taught to wield their powers for good and change the world. That is until a villain named Scar enters her life and changes her whole perspective on what it truly means to be the good guy. Scar loves her. And knows she loves him-she just doesn't know that yet herself. But she's about to find out. ~Excerpt~ "Why me?" I asked exasperatedly. "You do all of this for me, and why? For what reason?" "That's where you're still wrong, honey," he said darkly. "I'm not doing this for you. I'm doing this for me. I wanted you, so now you're mine-that's all there is to it. And by being mine, if someone hurts you, they're hurting me. And I am not one to take that disrespect lightly. Do you understand me?" "No." "You will." He knelt next to me, his face hovering over mine, his arms on either side of the machine, caging me beneath his upper body. "I will ruin you-I'll fit you to my mold; I'll take that goody-two-shoes girl you are, and turn her into a force to be reckoned with. One that's mine." I quivered. "All mine." "I..." His proximity had me beyond nervous. My throat constricted as I tried to regain my composure. "Will never be yours." He laughed, his hand caressing my cheek. "You and I both know you already are." *Enemies to lovers (mildly) dark romance* PUBLISHING ALSO ON ROYAL ROAD AS LEELEEACE1

59 parts Complete Mature
*****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.
Me And The Devil by Rayneelynnxx
26 parts Complete Mature
Book 1 When the Church burned my grandmother for witchcraft, they didn't just steal her life-they lit the match inside me. Now the same men who preach salvation hunt me through a village that reeks of ash and fear. But the night I whisper the forbidden words from her grimoire, something ancient answers. He comes cloaked in smoke and shadow, eyes burning like coals beneath a cathedral moon. Azreal. The Devil the Church fears-the one my blood was always meant to call. He offers me vengeance. I offer him a body, a soul, a heart I swore I'd never yield. Yet every bargain with darkness demands a deeper price. And as the flames of retribution rise, I can't tell if I'm damning my enemies... or myself. In a world that burns witches and worships monsters, I am learning to become both.
A Plaything for the Dragons by annablazer
16 parts Ongoing Mature
❝Two dragons and their dirty little plaything.❞ I didn't have much before the war. Just a name, a half-broken past, and kraken scars that burn every time I breathe. The war didn't break me-it just left marks that never healed. Now, I scrape by in the Banished Realm doing what I must to survive-petty crimes, quiet getaways, keeping my head low and my secrets buried. It's barely enough. Until desperation pushes me into a mission I can't afford to refuse. One risky job. One promised payout. One brutal trap I never saw coming. Framed for a crime I didn't commit, I'm dragged into the dungeons of the Banished Kings. A mated pair-ancient, ruthless, and sinfully beautiful. They claim they want answers. But the way they circle me, the way their eyes linger on my scars and the fire beneath my skin... it's not just the truth they crave. I have a secret they can never uncover. Because if they do, they won't destroy me. They'll devour me-mind, body, and soul. And I don't know if I'll beg them to stop... or to never stop at all.

But as a deadly conspiracy rises from the shadows, threatening to burn their dark world to the ground, the line between prisoner and obsession begins to blur.
