In the heart of the Roman Empire, where the auction block is law, Deianira Valerius harbors a dangerous secret. The youngest daughter of a brutal slave-owning family, she defies her heritage by buying the very lives her kin exploit-not to command, but to set free. Her sprawling mansion is a hidden sanctuary, a delicate defiance against the world.
Then she encounters Kratos, a foreign slave broken by years of cruelty, his spirit hardened by endless attempts at escape. He trusts no one, especially not a Roman noblewoman, even one who murmurs promises of freedom. But Deianira is unlike any mistress he has known. And when three colossal, ancient dragons-her family's deepest secret, her loyal companions of scale and fire-emerge from the Roman night, Kratos is forced to confront a truth more unbelievable than his own freedom.
Can a bond forged in impossible compassion and unimaginable power break the chains of a lifetime of distrust, even as the ruthless Roman world threatens to consume them both?

The seven kingdoms of Evangelina
In a world fractured by ancient magic, seven kingdoms stand on the brink of chaos. Shadows rise from forgotten places, and the balance between light and darkness is breaking. Nanì Clearwater, a young healer born with only one wing, has lived his life as an outcast. His gift to channel light is both a blessing and a curse, forcing him to walk the fragile line between survival and sacrifice. When a mysterious illness known as the Black Hunger begins to spread across the land, Nanì finds himself entangled in a destiny far greater than his own. Drawn into court intrigues, rebel plots, and forbidden prophecies, Nanì must journey across kingdoms where mythical beasts rule the skies and sacred forests whisper with memories of gods. Beside him stand unlikely allies-his loyal sister Arlina, the fierce Lydia, and Wayne, a knight bound to duty but hiding his own secrets. But as Nanì's dreams grow darker and the voice of a forgotten deity calls his name, he learns that his gift is the key to sealing-or shattering-Evangelina's fate forever. A tale of courage, betrayal, and forbidden love, The Seven Kingdoms of Evangelina is the first chapter of an epic saga where every choice leaves a scar... and even light casts shadows. This is a work in progress. What you'll find here are the first chapters of a story I've been carrying in my heart for a long time. My hope is to share this dream with you, to receive your feedback, and to grow together with every page. I truly wish you can fall in love with Evangelina's world as much as I have while creating it.
BOOK 1: Marked by Flame ( Currently Editing)
*****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.Complete
