What if you had already watched the world burn-and were given the chance to stop it?
When Nicholas Lyonhart opens the forbidden Grimoire of Echoes in the final hour of humanity's last stronghold, he doesn't pray for salvation. He asks for time. And the book listens.
Now reborn as his fourteen-year-old self in the sanctified halls of Sanctuary Hold, Nicholas remembers everything: the rise of the Hollow Flame Church, the slaughter of the arcane orders, the death of everyone he ever loved. With only fragments of his former power and a world that has yet to fall under tyranny's shadow, Nicholas must walk a knife's edge-reclaiming lost magic, outmaneuvering zealots, and hiding the truth of who he truly is.
But time is not so easily rewritten.
And fate does not forget.

SOUL BOUND LADY
"It is not forgetting the face of the betrayer, or wiping the slate clean as if it were a silly scratch. The memory is the wound: it stays." The slate is shattered, and Cordelia is standing in the wreckage. She wakes in a new place with a new name and the paralyzing knowledge that her greatest enemy wasn't the monster waiting in the dark, but the trusted hand that held the knife. Her new surroundings are a deceptive calm-a fragile, isolated space where the only threat is the one she brought with her: a profound, toxic inability to trust. She can see the flaws in every lie, the hesitation in every smile. They took more than her freedom; they stole her foundation. Cordelia is a ghost in her own life, moving through an unfamiliar landscape where every gesture of kindness feels like a calculated move. She knows the memory is the wound. What she has yet to decide is whether she will let that memory kill her... or make her a weapon. Update: Every Sunday or maybe🤔 two days a week!
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 :)
Rise of the Forgotten: From Despised Weakling to the God of All Magic
Abandoned at birth. Betrayed by the gods. Left to die in the darkness. When Kieran Valdros was summoned to a world of magic, he was cast aside the moment his frail body was deemed worthless. Branded as weak, he was exiled to the cursed Ruins-a death sentence, as none who entered had ever returned. But the gods had made a mistake. In the depths of despair, Kieran awakened a power long erased from history-the fusion of Light and Dark Magic, an ancient force feared by even the heavens. Rising from the brink of death, he shattered the limits of mortality, slaying a legendary beast and claiming his rightful place among the most powerful beings to ever exist. Now, as the God of All Magic, Kieran returns-not as a savior, but as a force of reckoning. The world that cast him aside will kneel. The gods who abandoned him will fall. But with power that defies fate itself... will he become the hero of this world? Or its greatest nightmare? ©All Rights ReservedComplete

Crown of Ash and Bonds: The Rise of the Flamebearer
I was bred to obey. I obeyed when they gave me to a man I barely knew. I obeyed when my cousin took my husband's bed. I obeyed even when I carried his child. Then he burned me alive. I woke up months before the pyre. I found myself back with the same husband and the same traitors, but I remember every detail of what they did to me. This time, I am not the victim. I am the architect of their downfall. Caelan Vorenthal is my husband's greatest rival. He is a shadow in a court of vipers and the only man who saw the truth when everyone else stayed silent. Now he is offering protection. An alliance. A connection that feels less like safety and more like a threat to the walls I have built. Can I trust the one man who could destroy everything? Or is he the weapon I never knew I needed? I was bred to obey. Now I choose who burns. ____________________________________________ The Details - A second chance fueled by the memory of fire - The silent marriage and the loud betrayal - The rival ally who should not be trusted - A heroine reborn to take back her agency - Tense attraction that feels like a risk - Slow burn romance and high-stakes secrets - Spicy scenes and intense emotional payoffs - A fight for survival and the ultimate revengeComplete
Saltblood and Silence
Four years after the storm. Queen Emma Swan rules a fragile Enchanted Forest rebuilt from ashes-but she rules alone. The Pirate Queen who saved her vanished into the mist without a word. In her place come emissaries: eleven powerful figures from fallen kingdoms, all loyal to a ghost. Each brings their own resources, secrets, and debts-answering not to Emma, but to Regina. While Emma navigates a world shaped by someone else's empire, the Ravager sails on. Far across the seas, a stowaway child-Rag-sneaks aboard one of Regina's shadow ships, dreaming of freedom and pirate glory. Instead, Rag is broken down, beaten, and forged in salt and labor under the brutal hands of the crew. What begins as punishment becomes survival, and what survives begins to learn. As whispers rise of assassinations among the emissaries, Emma digs deeper into the Queen's web. She uncovers a hidden empire built over thirty-five years: former prisoners, now nobles and ministers. Survivors of Regina's ship, released with new names and silent vows. She was not the first. And she may not be the last. When one of the emissaries is murdered, the tides shift. The Ravager returns to Hollowdeep, an underwater fortress carved in silence and magic. And the Pirate Queen rises again-cursed, burning, and merciless. Old wounds open. Loyalties crack. Emma must face the truth: the empire Regina built might be the only thing keeping their world from collapsing. But can she forgive the woman who made her a weapon? Can she lead beside her, or must she defy her? And somewhere in the fog, the stowaway watches it all-still nameless, still unknown-waiting for a place to belong.
