A searing tale of fire, fate, and forbidden love in a world on the brink of ignition.
Castor Flintlock was forged in the flames of a dying order. Once a devoted pyromancer of the Ember Eye, he now roams the world as a mercenary and outcast, carrying the last ember of his people-and the burden of their betrayal. Haunted by the destruction of his homeland and hunted by a ruthless faction known as the Cindervow, Castor holds the key to a power that could either save the world... or reduce it to ash.
But when a mission leads him to Seraphine Vale-a brilliant and enigmatic scholar with a mysterious bond to the elemental forces he barely understands-Castor's path ignites in ways he never expected. Bound by prophecy and pursued by enemies who would see them both burn, Castor and Seraphine must navigate ancient magic, buried secrets, and the volatile spark of a love neither of them can afford.
As the world teeters on the edge of elemental catastrophe, Castor must decide what kind of flame he will be: a wildfire of vengeance, or a beacon of hope.
Perfect for fans of Brandon Sanderson, Leigh Bardugo, and The Witcher, Castor Flintlock: Ember of the Exiled is a heart-pounding fantasy adventure that blends high-stakes magic, slow-burn romance, and the timeless struggle between destruction and redemption.

The Fire Beneath the Throne
Magic is forbidden. Love is dangerous. Prophecy is absolute. Alex Corvus was born with a secret he cannot reveal-magic in a world that burns those who wield it. Hidden away in the quiet edges of Ravenwood, he lives between shadows and silence, watched over by his frail mother and the two friends who know the truth: Johnny, the reckless heir to a noble house, and Lyra, his sister, a scholar who believes in reason over faith. When Alex accepts an apprenticeship under the mysterious Lord Arnaut, his life changes forever. Arnaut is brilliant, unsettling, and far too kind to be trusted. Yet in his dark halls, Alex finds more than mentorship-he finds belonging... and something dangerously close to love. But the past never stays buried. The old servant, Dot, knows what Alex truly is-and what he will become. The Goddess whispers to him in dreams, guiding his hand toward a destiny written long before his birth. Bloodlines are not forgotten. Curses do not die. As the kingdom fractures and magic stirs beneath the throne, Alex's power grows-and so does something else, something alive within him, a secret too sacred to name. By moonlight, a prophecy awakens. By dawn, a king will burn. Author's Note: This is the Beta Version of The Fire Beneath the Throne. Chapters will be updated and refined over time.
