In a kingdom where magic has turned to myth and curses are whispered like ghost stories, Lyra lives quietly on the edge of the forest, using her rare gift to heal the afflicted. She sees curses as threads of darkness-and absorbs them into her own body, erasing them forever. It's painful. Dangerous. And slowly killing her.
When a mysterious stranger arrives at her door claiming to be gravely ill, Lyra senses a darkness unlike anything she's ever felt. He is cold, guarded, and impossibly ancient-and no ordinary man. Caelum, the last dragon king, has wandered the world for centuries under a curse crueler than death: anyone who loves him will forget he ever existed.
He came seeking answers. He did not expect her.
She never expected to fall.
As they draw closer, secrets unravel-of kingdoms lost, hearts broken, and a love that dares to bloom where memory cannot survive. But just as Lyra begins to uncover the truth behind Caelum's curse, fate demands a cruel price.
Because some love stories are written in fire.
And some are burned into nothing at all.
"She healed his curse. But not even magic could save his name from her heart."

Bound by Darkness
Lyra's world shatters when she loses her father and sister, forcing her to suppress her powerful demonic side. In hiding, her inner demon becomes a vixen-like presence, longing for reunion. Living in the human realm, she struggles with emptiness until Elric, her shadow mate, arrives, igniting a deep connection that threatens to unravel her carefully built barriers. Elric abandons his throne in the underworld, driven by obsession to find Lyra. Their bond rekindles, but complications arise when Zorien, another male claiming to be her fated mate, tries to pull her away. As Lyra faces the awakening of buried emotions and memories, she grapples with her destiny tied to Elric while feeling the allure of Zorien. In embracing her dual nature and merging her angelic and demonic selves, Lyra regains lost strength and memories, transforming into a fierce warrior. Elric's obsession turns to devotion as they confront Zorien, reclaiming their love in a world where light and dark coexist. In this battle for her heart, Lyra discovers the power of her choices and the love she is destined to embrace.
Veiled in Light and Ruin
Every year, Lyra's village gathers beneath the ancient statues of the Fates, offering prayers and sacrifices to keep the creeping darkness at bay. The Ruined Kingdom stands in the distance, a forbidden place where no one enters and no one leaves. A place ruled by a king who does not age, does not die, and does not care for the world beyond his walls. Lyra has never believed in fate, only in survival. With her mother's health failing, she is willing to do whatever it takes to save what little she has left. But when this year's ritual goes terribly wrong, Lyra is taken-ripped from the life she knows and thrust into the heart of a kingdom lost to time. There, she is told she has been chosen. That she, along with others, must vie for the favor of a king no one has seen in over a century. But something is wrong within the castle's walls. Whispers of the past haunt her steps, and the King-cold, untouchable, and shrouded in secrets-watches her too closely. As shadows stir and forgotten magic awakens, Lyra begins to question everything she's been told about the Ruined Kingdom. And, more importantly, about herself. Because the deeper she delves into the mystery of the King and the kingdom he rules behind the walls, the more she realizes: Some destinies are written in blood. And some fates are meant to be broken.
The Healer & The Destroyer
A dying god holds the power to save her world. A cursed man holds the power to destroy her heart. Eir's healing magic is both blessing and curse, especially when the only hope of ending the Matriarch's brutal rule is to find the sun-bound god before he fades away. To uncover his hidden prison, Eir must solve three ancient clues scattered across a land built on the suffering of men. And she refuses to fail. And then Eir meets The Destroyer, a Cursed warrior bound to the empire she loathes. He is everything she swore to hate. He is everything she's terrified to want. To save the god, Eir must confront the monster who haunts her past. And risk falling for the one man she must kill to shatter the Matriarch's throne. Her mission demands his death. Her heart refuses to let go.

Shadow-Bound Flame
The Sunstone is broken, and the Fire must choose a master. For a thousand years, the curse has dimmed the light of the Sunstone lineage in Veridia. Princess Lyra, the last flicker of her fading kingdom, carries a terrifying secret: a dormant, unbound fire in her blood-the power foretold to either save the world or burn it to ash. When King Aethos Volkar, the ruthless ruler of the Shadowfell Empire and master of the Void, executes his final conquest, he claims Lyra as his ultimate prize. He is the ultimate predator, shattering Veridia's defenses and seizing the power he knows he cannot extract, only bind. Now a captive in the desolate, obsidian heart of the Shadowfell Citadel, Lyra is given a brutal choice: refuse him, and watch her remaining people be dismantled, or accept his crown. Aethos commands her to be his Shadow-Bound Flame-his Queen-so that her chaotic, immense power can be tamed and fused with his cold, absolute dominion. To survive, Lyra must master the dangerous magic she despises and find a way to strike at the man she has sworn to destroy. But as the King of Shadow begins to teach her the limits of her own strength, she discovers that hatred is merely a passion that can be misplaced... and the line between salvation and ruin is agonizingly thin.
The Weaver's Source
Lyra has been waiting for her Weaver to find her for years, unable to leave the safety of her home and only connected to him through passionate dreams - remembering nothing about him apart from his wild, sensual song. When the lone Weaver Grigore finally sweeps into her life, she finds herself instantly drawn to him, instantly recognising him as the man she had dreamt of for years. However, Lyra quickly runs into problems. Not only does he fail to recognise her but he's nothing like she imagined; cold, stubborn and determined to keep himself away from her. Rejected but determined to keep him safe as her magic whispers of his death, she follows him through danger and blood as he stalks his own hunt, desperate to shake the hooks that keeps pulling him back to her. First Volume of the Dark Folktales. This is a horror, erotic romance, with monster-of-the-week vibes, such as Buffy, Supernatural, Witcher, Claymore, and Van Helsing. (I'm a massive fan of the monster hunting genre.) Written from Sep 2011 until April 2014. This was the very first adult romance I'd written and has a plethora of problems. Despite this, I won't do further editing as I'm putting my efforts into a full re-write. Author's note - Please be mindful of what you're saying when commenting. I'm happy with helpful criticism, spelling/grammar pointers, questions or simple chatter. However, a tirade of needless, unhelpful complaints and just outright rude commentary is not welcome. My stories are terrible first drafts, they're going to be riddled with issues, so just politely highlight if you feel there's a problem. I'll listen and likely take on board the criticism. And if you're not enjoying it, that's fine, just move on and thank you for giving it a shot. The cover is my own art; sketched 2017.

The myth of Équili. I will find you in every life - series.
She was never meant to awaken... and he was never meant to care. Sarina has spent her life hiding a power that shouldn't exist-one that even the ancient fairies fear. When a violent surge exposes her abilities, she is sent to train under Ariel, a cold, exiled warrior whose own past is buried in betrayal and silence. He is everything she despises: strict, unreadable, merciless in his methods. She is everything he didn't expect: stubborn, fragile... and terrifyingly powerful. Their world is fractured between elemental bloodlines, sacred myths, and a forbidden book lost to history. Kingdoms are watching. Priests are hunting. Something old is waking beneath the surface-and Sarina might be the key to saving or shattering everything. But power comes with pain. Training feels like war. And the most dangerous thing in the temple isn't the magic. It's the way he looks at her when her power flickers. It's the way her heartbeat changes when he steps closer. In a world where loyalty is deadly and emotions are a weakness, two broken souls are forced together by fate... or something far more dangerous. Magic. Tension. Slow-burn obsession. This is not a love story. This is how it begins.
