They called her *witch* before they ever saw her power.
On the night her village turned to flame, sixteen-year-old **Maya** watched her mother unleash a storm of crystal and fire to save them both. Now hunted and exiled, Maya flees into the forbidden **Blackwood Forest**-a place whispered to be alive, where spirits of light drift between the trees and ancient gods still dream beneath the soil.
But something in the forest is watching her.
Something old enough to remember her bloodline.
And when it speaks her name, the world itself trembles.
Bound by prophecy and shadow, Maya must uncover the truth of her family's power-the *Crystalborn*-a lineage once sworn to guard the earth's heart from the darkness below. Yet with every step deeper into the forest, that darkness awakens...and it knows her name.
As the boundary between magic and madness thins, Maya will have to decide what she's willing to become to protect what remains of her world.
Because some destinies are not chosen.
They are awakened.

The Last Flame
In a world divided between sky and earth, magic flows where it is permitted-and nowhere else. Above, floating cities gleam with wealth and power, their citizens living lives of ease under watchful eyes. Below, the forested villages cling to the land, unaware of the forces shaping their fates. Seventeen-year-old Evelyn knows only the quiet rhythm of her village and the forge where she trains alongside her father. But when a mysterious crash shatters the forest's calm, she discovers something that should not exist-a remnant of a power long thought lost. Drawn into a world of fire, secrets, and forces beyond imagination, Evelyn finds herself at the edge of a conflict that could change everything. A wounded stranger appears, carrying a secret that could either save them all-or destroy everything she has ever known. As the forest trembles and shadows rise, the choices she makes could ignite a war-or save a world on the brink of ruin.
Hidden Flame
In the war-ravaged territory of Cadence, Olivia has spent her life hidden in the shadows-she's the secret her homeland cannot afford to lose. But no one has ever told her why. Years after the war's end, Vorrath, their relentless enemy, still casts a menacing shadow over Cadence. But the weight of isolation, the desperation for answer's and the sacrifice of others grow too heavy to bear, forcing Olivia to take a daring risk. Disguised as one of them, she infiltrates Vorrath, enrolling in their elite academy deep within enemy territory. Amid Vorrath's walls, Olivia searches for answers and uncovers truths about the war-secrets that not only threaten her survival but shatter everything she thought she knew about her homeland and herself. Her path collides with Tristan Hudson, a handsome yet dangerous academy trainer who happens to be the son of Vorrath's ruthless president. Olivia knows she should stay as far away from him as possible-but what if that's not an option? As she navigates life at the academy, it becomes evident there's something very different about her, something she won't be able to hide for long. Loyalties fracture, forbidden emotions ignite, and Olivia realizes she is more than just a hidden secret-she is the key to everything. All she wanted was freedom-but now, she'll have to fight to survive in a world where betrayal and revelation could cost her everything. *** I waited until it was COMPLETE and published the whole book for you. :) ENJOY!!!! #romantasy #fantasy #romance #youngadult #newadult #slowburn #enemiestolovers #magicLengkap

Crystal takes Maya on a journey, keeping who she really was a secret. And keeping on the move the whole time a secret also. Little taste of the book :)~~~Walking down several halls, I finally come to the metal door of the dungeons. Walking through, power flows off of me in waves of bone chilling darkness, all of those pathetic little prisoners cower away back into the corners of their cells like smart little rats, except two. "I will never bow to you ever again!" Yells Maya. "Neither will I!" Shouts Crystal Chuckling, "Well sooner or later, little heirs. You will bow to me. It may not be today, possibly not even tomorrow, but you never know. My methods are extremely effective. Especially when it comes to such...breakable little participants. I'm sure you'll both be more than willing." I give them a toothy grin, oh how I can't wait to hear their screams, the cracking of their bones, the dripping of their blood as they submit and remember who is truly in charge of this world. Of them. "I WILL NEVER BOW TO YOU! YOU SICK BASTARD! LOOK WHAT YOU DID TO YOUR OWN BROTHER! HE'S ON HIS DEATHBED! RIGHT AS WE SPEAK! WE'VE ESCAPED YOUR MEN AND WE CAN DO IT AGAIN!" Crystal full on screams out at me, close to tearing her throat raw from shouts.~~~ What is Crystal keeping a secret? But the real question is, who is Maya? She has no last name, so who is her family? Where will their adventures take them? You never know until the end. Don't be surprised if their comes a twist plot! :D This series will go between different super naturals views. Through there journeys until the last book which, I wont uncover until later on.Lengkap

Affinity Witch
A light obscured often goes dark. Sabrina Verrun is a witch and the most gifted metallurgist her Hexen coven has seen in a century. Unfortunately, she has no interest in being a traditional metal-worker, repairing broken items and making trinkets to sell in the Hexen shop...she wants to create new things, things no one has ever seen before. While she dreams of devoting her life to her metal-working, her mother has other plans...she wants Sabrina to follow in her footsteps and take over as coven leader, putting aside metal in favor of assuming responsibility for the well-being of the other witches. Sabrina has no desire to do such a thing, and as she fights for control of her own life, she's determined to create something that proves her research is worthwhile, earning her the freedom she so desperately craves. But as those she lives with manipulate her, ignore her, and treat her as if she doesn't know her own mind, she eventually turns her attention to the one place she's forbidden from entering-the Schwarzwald, a magical, yet deadly, forest ruled by the elusive and powerful Forest King. Eventually, Sabrina finds herself willing to go to any lengths to control her own destiny, and the choices she makes along the way affect not only herself, but her coven, other magic users, and one important life yet to come.
