Scarred Hands
Years have fallen away like petals from a dying rose, yet the roots of the past refuse to wither. Grayson fought relentlessly to seal the door on his past, leaving only the scars etched into his skin-marks of a battle long endured, of a warrior forged in suffering. Scars he wished had never been carved into him, yet ones he had no choice but to bear. The abuse, the pain, all buried deep beneath the weight of time, cemented alongside Charlie's grave. But the past is never truly silent. When Grayson crosses paths with a ghost from his childhood torment, the door he fought so hard to lock swings open, unleashing memories long suppressed. His first instinct is to run-to flee as he always has. Yet, with the weight of responsibility on his shoulders and a young boy looking up to him, escape is no longer an option. This time, vengeance calls his name. It stands against everything he's been taught, everything he's tried to become. All in the name of peace-true peace-that eluded him since he was three. How far will he go to claim it? Would he break his family's trust and become the killer he was meant to be?Complete
Bloodline of Shadows
Born the youngest of twelve powerful brothers, you were destined to inherit a legacy greater than all of them chosen as heir not by age, but by the ancient powers flowing through your veins. But fate was cruel. Stolen away as a child, your body was poisoned, your mind fractured, and your power suppressed. For years, you were lost, a missing prince hidden in shadows. Now found again, you return to a family torn between fierce protectiveness and their own dangerous instincts. Some test your strength. Others guard your fragile stability. And within you, not one voice, but many linger: echoes of cruelty, scars of pain, and something darker born in captivity. Every day becomes a battle not just against your brothers' challenges, but against the selves inside you, desperate to surface. Yet amidst the chaos, bonds begin to form, and trust slowly grows. With each trial, you take a step closer to reclaiming both your place as heir... and the fractured pieces of yourself. But the deeper you go, the more one truth becomes clear: survival means not only mastering your power, but mastering the shadows that live within.Complete

That night, their worlds collided. He found her-battered, nameless, drowning in silence. He should've walked away. But something about her... felt familiar. A forgotten memory. A name lost in time. A connection buried beneath scars. She had no past she was willing to share. He had a childhood he never let go of. But fate doesn't ask for permission-it rewrites the story in the most ruthless ways. Some scars don't just heal... they reveal. And when the truth surfaces, will it mend what was lost or destroy them both? A story of pain, justice and an unexpected love that blooms in the darkest places.
