✨ To love is to bleed. To bloom is to burn. ✨
Andromeda Helene Hawthorne walks hand in hand with ruin. Neokai Aleksander Pavlov is her anchor, her torment, her only fragile salvation. Together, they are bound to a garden that does not forgive-where vines whisper lullabies in her mother's voice, and shadows call her by name.
Every kiss tastes like surrender. Every touch writes another vow in blood. The deeper they go, the more the garden hungers-twisting devotion into chains, and sacrifice into something holy.
What they don't yet understand is simple, merciless, and inescapable:
🌑 The garden always takes what it is owed. 🌑

Chains Of The Stella
-Book one- She was never meant to survive him. Only satisfy the stars. Chosen by blood, bound by prophecy-she is the key to a god's bloodline rebirth. But in the hands of the demigod whose hunger rivals the heavens decree, she is both prisoner and offering. When she dares to escape, carrying more than just secrets, the stars shift-and so does the end of the world. "I need you to understand something," he said, circling her like a beast sizing up its prey. "You don't just belong to me physically." Lou's breath hitched. "You belong to me mentally. I own your thoughts, your attention, your focus. Even your mistakes are mine now." - Kaelion (Clark) This story contains mature themes and is intended for readers 18+. All characters are fictional.

Scars in our Stars
"We all carry stars, But they don't dim our Stars - They only make us shine differently." They met not at the beginning, but somewhere in the quiet middle- Ariana, a girl who buried herself in books and past regrets, and Ethan, a boy drowning beneath the weight of choices he stopped trying to explain. In a world of fleeting nights, untold truths, and whispered breakdowns, their lives stitched together in the corridors of a college far from home. With hearts bruised by grief and hands still trembling from things they couldn't undo, they found solace in late-night rooftops, music that spoke louder than words, and a friendship no one saw coming. But life isn't gentle. Sophie's death shattered them. Secrets snapped their bonds. And love-when it came-was tangled in pain. Scars in Our Stars is a raw and unfiltered story of young adults trying to make sense of life, love, loss, and themselves. It's about the guilt we carry, the friends who become family, the choices that haunt us, and the lavender feathers we leave behind. Because sometimes, the deepest scars... are the ones we share beneath the stars. ~Zephyra NoxComplete

Forsaken: The Chosen Trilogy - Book One
Before you begin this story, I must warn you first. This is not a tale of dashing knights and lovely damsels awaiting rescue. It is not the tale of happy endings, with birdsong and rides into the sunset. It is a tale of light magic and dark, of dragons and monsters, of heroes and villains and the thin line between them. This is the tale of being broken, being made stronger, and then being broken again. This is a story of love of heartbreak so great if feels like your chest has been hollowed out and scraped clean, like you would never feel anything else ever again, and of love so powerful it can make even the gods tremble. This is not a happy story, but it is our story, and it is the only one I know how to tell. ********************** FORSAKEN is the first tale in the Saga of Darkness, following six brothers and sisters who have been named the Chosen of the Gods, destined to fight a great darkness that threatens their world. But evil wears many faces, and it will take the efforts of all- Kryssa, Brannyn, Lanya, Kylee, Alyxen, and Reyce- to survive the harrowing trials to come. ********************** FORSAKEN is a completed novel, being posted as a serial. Books Two through Five in the Saga of Darkness are also complete. Chapters posted every Monday and Friday.Complete
White Crystal Butterflies | Wattys 2021 Shortlist | ✔
❖ Interstellar pilot and ex-adventurer Alex Gallegos must keep their team safe on an icy moon as sentient storms threaten to repeat the tragedy that ended their last career. ❖ Everyone in the United Inhabited Solar Systems (for some reason, UIS for short) knows to stay away from Mahaha. The icy moon is notorious for failed probe landings and research missions that end in tragedy: the only people to ever venture to its surface needed rescuing after just two weeks. When a prestigious research group decides they want a turn, they ask Alex Gallegos to lead the team. Perfectly qualified and haunted by their past, Alex accepts, hoping to make up for old mistakes and get just a little further from the earth they've left behind. Two months into the seven-month mission, the team is struggling with discontent, damaged equipment, and blizzards acting less and less like normal weather. As Mahaha moves out of range of help and the storms take on a more malicious character, Alex must face the one foe they could never have prepared for. Mahaha may or may not be alive. ❖❖❖ Complete. Wattys 2021 Shortlister. Standalone sequel (Rocks Can Dance) coming in 2023. Comments and critiques are both welcome and appreciated. I write characters from many different backgrounds, with many different experiences. If you share those traits and find that I have misrepresented anything, please let me know!

Maroli Tango
Nobody expects the Sasquatch Intervention! A Vedic text tells of ancient gods who cast a shadow upon the Earth, shielding humanity from an angry sun. Or, as history books will soon report: when Sol last went micro-nova, Mercury, Venus, and the Anye migration fleet were positioned in eclipse, the latter on purpose. Earth was scorched - but not destroyed. The event is cyclical, coming around again, and fortunately, Vidura's furry pilgrims are still living in the neighborhood. Unfortunately, the fleet is in mothballs. The planets will not be lining up to help. Two million light years away on the planet of the Unseen, a potentially hostile race of bird-folk have demonstrated the ability to get here from there. The natives will have to dig in, hands on Anye technology, with President of the United States Carmen Benequista leading Earth's ruling elite into an age of service to humanity. It's a dicey proposition, at best. Meanwhile, Carmen - sixty, widowed - is in late-life crisis. She has a suitor; human, Filipino/American, 15 years younger, recently associated with the Anye Space Mafia. Good for her, maybe. Entering stage left, the elevated maroli. Labor appliances of the nightmare variety. Egg-shaped grav-lift chassis. Bio-engineered tentacles strong enough to pull your arms off. Self-aware not by design - possessed perhaps by spirits of the dead. And who knows what the maroli are up to? Something wholesome, we hope. Will Earth be saved, only to perish in a war between cosmic rivals? Has the President found true love? Is it rude to attend a party with fighting drones in tow? Action, intrigue, space soap opera - A genre-bending tale of life, love, and uncertain outcomes. ᶲᶲᶲᶲᶲᶲᶲᶲ Click on my website URL, listed on the Wattpad author's profile, for more information.
