Book Three of the Crimson Requiem Trilogy.
She was never chosen.
Never crowned.
Just unwilling to disappear.
The Church crowned a new Voice - clean, obedient, silent.
They called Seraphine blasphemy.
Then miracle.
Then nothing at all.
But the ruins remember her.
So do the names they struck from gospel.
And the ink beneath her skin is writing again.
This is not the version they canonized.
It's the one they tried to forget.
The Choir has fallen silent.
But she is not.
She walks through what's left of their story -
not to finish it.
But to refuse it.
Because this gospel does not want to end.
And neither does she.

Crimson Requiem
In a world where memory is power and blood remembers everything... her voice could end it all. Seraphine Vale was never meant to awaken. Half-mortal, half Nightborn, she was hidden from the ancient Courts who once ruled the world in shadow. But when her voice unleashes a forgotten magic - the Requiem - both gods and monsters begin to hunt her. Torn between the crown that wants to bind her and the Church that wants to burn her, Seraphine has only one protector: Lord Caelan of Blackthorne Keep, the last heir of a cursed bloodline. Cold. Immortal. Bound to secrets older than her birth. And in his silver-black eyes, she sees something she shouldn't: Recognition. Their touch awakens more than desire - it stirs a wound beneath the world that was never meant to heal. She is not the first to sing this song. She may be the last.Terminé
The Villainess Won't Play
Selena Ashford's life was nothing but a monotonous shell-until one fateful morning, she wakes up as Seraphina Ashenveil, the villainess of the very fantasy romance she despises: Whispers of Hearts. Known for its twisted plots and the inevitable death of its villainess, Selena's new life is a nightmare. Ugh.. Why this stupid book!? As Seraphina, she is surrounded by two figures who mark her doom: her ruthless father, Aldric Ashenveil, and the male lead, Caius Valerian, whose cold indifference promises only betrayal. But fate throws her an unexpected twist-she crosses paths with Killian Valmond, the second male lead, a fiercely loyal and annoyingly arrogant knight who dies in a most pathetic yet stupid way for the female lead. Tsk, Cliché. But he is not leaving her side. He sticks with her like she's something which either needs to be guarded or protected. She can't tell which. Stupid Man. Seeking refuge, Seraphina hides in a small village, where the kind-hearted locals accept her without asking questions. Despite her growing frustrations with Killian's persistent presence, she begins to question everything she thought she knew about her new reality. Something is off-no one seems to be playing by the rules of the story, and the characters seem eerily alive, drifting away from their roles as if the book itself was a mere myth. Or Maybe.. Is it? Slowly, Selena uncovers unsettling truths that suggest her life, the worlds, everything might be a lie. As the lines between fiction and reality blur, Seraphina must decide if she can carve her own path to survival or if she's destined for a fate far worse than the book ever predicted.

Fae of Death
**[WARNING: this is bad. Read with your own discretion. Editing work was sloppy and story was a let-down.]** **Completed** Sera thought "aging out" of foster care was her biggest threat. She didn't expect to wake up in a violet sky, staring into the eyes of a man who breathes fire. As the Riftwalker, Sera's magic is a beacon that brings the Fae world to its knees. But she doesn't want to be a queen or a savior-she just wants to survive the courts that see her as a vessel rather than a person. From the quiet of the human realm to the catastrophic fractures of the Eternal Flame, this is the story of a girl who was never meant to be human, and the magic that finally broke her.Terminé
The Shattered One
This is an original work, so if you plan to offer something, don't. She woke up fractured, wrong, and forgotten. The world she once knew is gone, twisted by a cataclysm known only as The Fade. Now, forests breathe, light drips like water, and creatures mimic human voices with uncanny precision. Time bends in impossible ways, and raw emotion manifests into monsters. Nothing is natural. Everything watches. In this new, devouring world, a lake calls to her. The sky whispers her name. Something ancient stirs-something that remembers what she once was, before she was broken and buried. As she journeys through the remnants of a shattered reality, hunted by the very fabric of emotion, she begins to uncover the truth of her origin and the role she was meant to play in a world unmade. But some secrets are buried for a reason. And in The Fade, even your feelings can kill you.
Ocean Orbs
He was the silent prince of her chaos. She was the unexpected melody in his mute life. She fell for the eyes he desperately hid. He loved the girl who didn't know his identity.To her, they were the calm ocean amidst the chaos. To him, they were a painful mistake. A tragic marriage history of her sister made her hate love. Engineering success was her only future. Expectations bound her. A scholar who was tired of speaking. A prince who was unable to speak. Their silent gaze made them want to speak again. Their shared silence became their only connection. Her voice was ignored. His was broken. The only thing louder than their silence was the truth behind their unspoken stare. She chose silence because no one listened. He chose silence because he lost his voice. Could they hear the truth in each other's eyes?
Torn
Seraphine grew up under the watchful eye of her father, a retired Navy SEAL, a man of discipline, strength, and unshakable love. Her mother was a ghost story, a woman who vanished when Seraphine was just a baby. All she's ever known is that her father raised her to fight, to create, and to survive. But everything changes with a single phone call at 2 a.m. His voice is urgent. Afraid. He gives her instructions for a hidden safe in their secluded cabin, just before the line goes dead with the sound of a door splintering...and something inhuman roaring on the other end. By the time Seraphine reaches her fathers house in the suburbs, it's in ruins. Blood stains the floor. And when a monstrous intruder emerges from the shadows wielding impossible magic, the life she thought she knew unravels in an instant. In the chaos, something long buried inside her awakens saving her even as it nearly destroys her. When she wakes, she is no longer in her world, but caught in the crossfire of an ancient war between angels and demons. Her family's secrets run deeper than she ever imagined. She knows that no mater what she learns though...finding her family is all that matters to her.
Fangs & Fury
When the first body fell, the truce began to bleed. Seraphina Vale I didn't ask to be here-standing in a cathedral that reeks of blood and secrets, staring at the one man I swore I'd never need. Darius Fenrir. Wolf royalty with a superiority complex so big it could choke a dragon. He thinks I'm trouble. He's right. Trouble in heels, with a smile sharp enough to slit throats. But when corpses start appearing-bodies branded with symbols no one dares to speak of-I know this isn't about fangs versus fur anymore. Something old is waking, something that wants to burn this fragile truce to ashes. And somehow, it's tied to me. Darius Fenrir I should kill her. End of story. Seraphina Vale is everything I hate-vain, venom-tongued, and far too intoxicating for my own good. She moves like sin draped in silk, and every word out of her mouth makes me want to muzzle her... or worse. But the killings have changed everything. A prophecy soaked in blood has clawed its way back from the shadows, and somehow she's tangled in it. I don't trust her. Hell, I don't even like her. But the more bodies we find, the more I wonder if fate's cruel joke is pairing me with the one creature who could break my kingdom... and me. Dark secrets. Deadly alliances. A killer who bleeds chaos. Welcome to Fangs and Fury.

And the Keep she once called home begins to reshape itself around her legend. Only... it isn't her. Not really. A new cult rises, calling her Saint Vale. A false gospel spreads. And in the deepest corridors of Blackthorne Keep, a girl long dead begins to stir in thread and memory - the bride they never let go. Seraphine is not afraid to be hated. She is terrified of being believed. And as the crown reshapes itself from song and shadow, she must decide: will she unwrite the myth before it consumes her - or let the world bury her beneath the version it prefers?Terminé
