My magic nearly killed someone at the Testing. Instead of executing me, the General claimed me as his weapon.
Now I'm trapped training under the ruthless Eastern Wolf, learning to control power that shouldn't exist. But when we channel together, we create something the Empire tried to erase from history-a bond so dangerous they rewrote their laws to prevent it.
The problem? Villages are burning. Monsters are spreading. And my magic looks exactly like what's killing them.
Caught between a General with secrets, Assessors who want me dead, and a power I can't fully control, I have to figure out the truth before they decide I'm the monster they need to eliminate.

The Fall of The Veil
"It's yours," I say when she merely stares, eyes flicking back and forth between it and myself. Calculating, processing. Wondering why on earth I would just hand it over to her. That's the question of the day, isn't it? The answer is because she's the revolution now. She's grown into the exact person I thought she would become - needed her to become. Every god needs a believer, but I can't say I expected to ever be the one kneeling. I used to want to lead the world. Now I just want to watch her remake it. I step closer, slowly, carefully. Like I'm approaching a predator. Because I am. Her head tilts to the side, confusion swirling amidst the cold calculation. My eyes travel down her form, cataloguing everything that's changed about her. Her stance is more rigid, her hair tamer, posture perfect. The wild, emotional girl is gone. And in her place is a queen in the making. -------- Verena Ebonmere was never meant to stand out. Her magic was bound, her family tried to forget her, and even at Hogwarts she's just another face in the crowd-until a mark blooms against her skin, thorn-shaped and burning with power she doesn't understand. Now everyone seems to want something from her: a professor whose charm hides something far more dangerous, a boy whose visions of rebellion could consume them both, and a person whose gentle smile conceals secrets older than the school itself. Pulled between desire, loyalty, and the lure of her own unraveling power, Verena must decide whether she's the prey everyone expects her to be... or the crown they never saw coming. *NO HARRY POTTER KNOWELDGE NEEDED!!* *I do not own any of the world building or settings, but all characters and plots are my own :)*Complete

When a spring-born initiate dares to defy the sanctity of silence, she catches the attention of the one being no angel should ever cross: the god of death himself. He should have punished her. Instead... he watched. He intervened. He let her live. And in doing so, he may have doomed them both. Because the Ivory City is rotting from within. And she-bright, reckless, and unafraid-was never meant to survive it. Betrayal was always inevitable. But he never expected to want her enough to let it happen. ~She was forbidden to speak his name. He couldn't stop thinking hers.~

Now he's not just running from the darkness... he is the darkness.

In a new city, Sam is hunted on all sides by those who slay things like him without mercy. Sam hides among them, searching for answers while he assists them with trying to track something that is hiding right under their noses. But as he gets closer to their secrets, and their daughter, his own secrets risk coming out. His curse attracts even greater threats that rest beneath the city, in a dark, hidden place, that might destroy them all. When he was still human, he thought monsters were myths... legends. But now he has to study those old legends to try and figure out what exactly is hiding behind his eyes.
