In the kingdom of Isgan, a land caught in perpetual turmoil and war, the kingdom's princess and her pet dragon try and navigate royal politics, war, and their newfound emotions, all while defending the land from invasion.
Lucia of Isgan is the beloved princess of the kingdom. Adored by her citizens, respected by her peers, and loved beyond measure by the king, she didn't want for anything. At least - that's what it looked like to most people. For Lucia, she'd never had to doubt her own devotion and love for her people. Until Nyx, the large black dragon, was unceremoniously dropped into her world.
Now the two have to navigate allies trying to force Lucia's hand while traversing their own traitorous feelings. Will Lucia choose love, or sacrifice everything for her kingdom and her people?
Nyx has been plagued by strange voices from the day of his birth, demanding death and destruction wherever he went. Untill he met Lucia, the kingdom's princess and the decendant of a race that had enslaved his kin for centuries. Now he found himself falling for the fierce blond human that seemed hell bent on sacrificing herself for her people. For Nyx, a selfish, self-centered dragon, her reasoning is irrational and utterly foolish. In between protecting his new obsession and convincing her that he was worth falling for, can the two navigate the political plays and ultimately end up together. Or will Nyx be destined to watch the things he loves burn to the ground?

Hollowspire
In a city where magic is bound by iron and oaths, Nyx has spent years hunting the things that slip through the cracks - demons, devourers, creatures whispered about in forgotten prayers. She's good at it, until a single mission leaves her bloodied, bound to a voice she can't silence, and staring down a war she doesn't understand. As her orders grow murky and the wards that keep the world safe begin to flicker, Nyx is pulled deeper into a web of old prophecies and older hungers. Every step she takes toward the truth draws her closer to the thing she's sworn to destroy... and to the shadowed figure whose help she can't seem to refuse. Ancient power is waking. The Spire is hollowing. And Nyx may be the last barrier between the world and a hunger older than its name. Please feel free to give constructive criticism. It's been a while since I've been back in the writing game but I got inspired for this.

A realm on the brink of war. A bond that threatens to consume them both. Cora's life takes a dangerous turn when she's thrust into a world of secrets and magic. Mistaken for a fae, her blood is thought to hold the power to restore balance to a crumbling realm. The first thing she learns when she's captured: never trust a dragon. Ash has always known what it means to be feared. He comes from the Third Kingdom, the only realm where dragons remain awake inside their bonded. Considered little better than beasts, the people of the Third live in isolation, training to control the instincts and will of the creature that lives inside them. Alone in the Outlands, he never expected to find a fae. Especially not one like her. When her cry shatters the forest, he understands the instinct that drives him to her side. What he does not anticipate is how fiercely he will have to fight the beast that already sees her as its own. With witches whispering of prophecy and a dark king determined to bring about a new era of ruin, they must choose: fight the fate that binds them or risk becoming the very force that brings the realm to ruin. Because the longer they travel together, the harder it becomes to tell where Ash ends and the dragon begins.
