A blind elven mage bound to the Fade.
A necromancer who would spend his last heartbeat to keep her breathing.
When the ancient Evanuris stir the Blight to life, Elora "Rook" Ingellvar leads the battered Veilguard to forge an impossible alliance-Nevarra's Mourn Watch and Antiva's Crows-while the silver wildfire under her skin grows more volatile each day. Emmrich Volkarin, scholar of death and the man who loves her, hunts a forbidden rite that could lash his life to hers...or ruin them both.
From corpse-lit catacombs to the knives-and-masques of Halamshiral, the Veilguard navigate conspiracies where smiles are weapons and mirrors are doors. Courts and crypts alike hide designs on Rook's power; an unseen hand reaches to cut the Fade's anchor from her and set it in another. Old rivals return wearing new crests. Lovers become each other's shield-and temptation.
As Caer Dathlen bleeds and ballroom music drowns the sound of drawn steel, Rook must choose what her power is for-and who gets to choose with her. Love, obsession, and duty tangle in a war against gods who do not know how to die.
If the Evanuris mean to drown Thedas, the Veilguard will teach them to bleed.

Aeterna Noctis
In the dark, there are no saviors. Only predators... and the bargains we make with them. Elara Vance is dying. Her rare blood is both a curse and a death sentence, and when it begins to claim her younger sister, she is left with one desperate choice. Her only hope lies in a whispered legend: a mysterious, reclusive patron of the night who can grant miracles for a price. The price is her freedom. Kaelen Valerius is ancient, powerful, and weary of eternity. When a mortal woman invokes his ancient pact, he expects another fleeting distraction. But Elara is different. Her very presence is a spark in his endless night, and her blood sings a siren's call that threatens to shatter his icy control. He offers her a year of servitude in his gothic estate in exchange for the medicine that can save her sister's life. Trapped in a world of shifting alliances and ancient feuds, Elara finds herself drawn to the enigmatic vampire lord. Every guarded glance is a battle, every accidental touch a spark that could ignite a dangerous passion. But as a deadly conspiracy rises from the shadows, threatening to burn their dark world to the ground, the line between prisoner and obsession begins to blur. In a game of blood and power, can a love born of desperation survive the coming dawn? Or will the secrets of the eternal night consume them both? ---![FADED MEMORIES [Rudony]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/386719898-256-k527752.jpg)

🖤 Ashes of the Veilborn Dark Fantasy | Tragic Romance | Court Intrigue | Rebirth On the night the stars disappeared, a girl was born- a Veilborn princess never meant to exist. Feared for her magic. Silenced by her family. Marked from birth. Seraphyne Aelira lived her first life as a girl far too innocent for the world that raised her. She feared her older brother's hand, flinched at her father's voice, and learned quickly: no one defends a cursed child. Not even herself. Her only light was her older sister-the only one who ever truly loved her. But when tragedy struck, they said she caused it. A fire. A scream. A lie. And one day, when the fear and pain grew too much- Seraphyne snapped. Her magic-wild, ancient, Veilborn-exploded from her. And though she didn't understand it, couldn't even control it... The court saw a monster. From that day on, even their whispers were edged with terror. But even shadows can love. Years later, Seraphyne met Kaelion Draxmere Vaebrith. Their love was quiet. Fierce. Immediate. Like souls recognizing each other from lifetimes past. But it wasn't enough. Manipulated by her jealous guardian 𝐀𝐮𝐫𝐞𝐧... And deceived by the golden noblewoman Altheira, whose smile could ruin empires... Seraphyne was framed- And executed for a crime someone else committed. She was not killed by an enemy... But by someone who knew her best. Now, she is reborn- Haunted by the past. Carrying a power that no longer sleeps. And remembering every betrayal, every lie. She remembers how Altheira fooled her. How Kaelion stood still as she was taken. And how the court feared a girl who only ever wanted to be loved. But Seraphyne no longer craves their acceptance. She has returned not to forgive- But to uncover the truth, expose the traitor, and set fire to the lies that destroyed her. Fate chose her once. Now she chooses herself.
Whispers of the Abyss
The city is plagued by whispers-shadows that slither through alleyways, unseen hands that brush against skin in the dead of night. Seraphina Duskborne has always felt them watching, lurking just beyond her reach. But when one finally steps into the light, she realizes she was never meant to be ordinary. Lucian, a being woven from darkness and desire, was sent to claim her soul. Bound to the Abyss, he is a hunter of wayward fates-a creature with no heart, no mercy. Yet, something about Seraphina unsettles him, tempts him, makes him hunger in ways he shouldn't. She is not just a mortal. And he is not just her executioner. As their fates intertwine, Seraphina finds herself trapped in a dangerous game of seduction, secrets, and power. Lucian is both her captor and her obsession, his touch sinful, his presence inescapable. But there are greater forces at play-forces that want her dead, and Lucian broken. In the end, one of them must fall. But will it be to darkness-or to desire?Complete
