"Vengeance has a heartbeat. And hers hasn't stopped yet."
When Princess Esmeray Tiriel watched her empire burn, she didn't cry,she ran.
Now the girl who once ruled the skies rides her dragon through the ruins of a world that forgot her name. Her sister sits on the enemy's throne. Her people are gone. And the only thing louder than the fire in her veins is the promise she made through her tears: I'll make you wish I'd died with them. After a year of training and barely holding her sanity together, Esme infiltrates Duskveil's most prestigious academy under a fake name. The goal? Get close to the royal family, find the emperor, and end him. The problem? His son,Caithen,is annoyingly smart, way too charming, and very, very off-limits. Falling in love wasn't part of the revenge plan,
but neither was betrayal. Because in a world built on lies and blood, vengeance always has a price,and she's running out of things left to lose.

Bloody Crown [COMPLETED]
She was born a wolf in a world that wanted her tamed. Seraphina Ravenshade never asked for silk gowns or gilded palaces, her place has always been the training yard, blade in hand, unflinching before men twice her size. But when the Crown summons her family to the capital, she finds herself forced into a deadly game of politics, power, and temptation. The Crown Prince, Kael, is as dangerous as he is mesmerizing, his golden eyes see too much, his touch burns too deep, and his intentions blur the line between protection and possession. But the shadows whisper another name. Silais, a man with silver hair, a past soaked in blood, and a vow that ties Seraphina to secrets the royal family would kill to bury. Between a prince who cages her with fire and a phantom who claims her in darkness, Seraphina must decide where her loyalty, and her heart truly lies. And in Aurelius, love is just another battlefield. --- 🩸A dark fantasy romance where love is dangerous, power is bloody, and every choice can destroy a kingdom. Read now. But beware, no one escapes unscathed. Hello there! This is my first attempt at writing something, so please bear with me-I'm a bit sloppy when it comes to endings. You might find this story familiar if you're a fan of manhwa. That's no coincidence! This story is inspired by a dream I had after reading a typical romance manhwa (though I can't quite remember which one). All the double gaps means some time delay or skip. I hope you enjoy this little slice of my imagination! 💭✨ This was a one shot in one of my old account (which is not working unfortunately)Complete

Til Death Tears Me Apart Once Again [Discontinued]
"If I'm going to die anyway, there's no point in trying to live." A typical reincarnated into a villainess story, except the protagonist isn't your typical 'I want my happy ending protagonist', but a death seeker. XX 《'Til Death Tears Me Apart, I Will Always Love You》is a very successful otome game. As much praise and admiration the game recieves, it is also, however, notorious for being absurdly difficult.

Anything short of perfection wouldn't even get the player a glimpse of a happy ending for the Capture Target the player chose. Enter me; Just a simple, normal girl reincarnated into a game as dangerous as that, as the villainess no less. Destined to die no matter what, I think there's no point in me trying to fight fate. If I'm going to die regardless, might as well die sooner rather than later. But that desire for death causes more than just a few changes to the definite plot; From little ones that have no effect at all, to life changing ones that may destroy the world of Arraxus. So the God of the world makes a deal with me: They'll give me a peaceful and happy afterlife, as long as I get a happy ending for myself. "Let the game begin!" -- Discontinued.Complete

And are the gods who destroyed their family worthy of continued existence? Some bonds transcend time, death, and divinity itself. Some betrayals demand a reckoning that will reshape the cosmos.Complete
