In the smoke-choked nation of Lusena, survival is the only dream the poor are allowed to have.
Juan Barrion Veyra is no hero-just a factory worker, a gambler, and a man running from his past. When a failed heist unleashes a brutal manhunt across the city, Juan is dragged into a war he never chose, crossing paths with Dahlia Soleyna, a dangerous thief hiding secrets of her own. As gangs hunt, corporations tighten their grip, and soldiers turn streets into graves, something ancient begins to stir-something that should never have been found.
Bound by fear, loss, and impossible choices, Juan and Dahlia are forced to fight not just the world closing in on them, but the slow corrosion of who they are becoming. Power whispers. Loyalty fractures. Love becomes both a weapon and a weakness.
Blood Prayer Before Death is a dark Filipino-inspired steampunk fantasy about revolution, betrayal, and the terrifying cost of power-where survival demands sacrifice, and the line between hero and monster is written in blood.
Because in Lusena, you don't pray for life.
You pray before death.

The Duke's Reincarnated Daughter
I died and woke up as Cryselle Argentum, a princess whose fate I already knew too well. This world was not unfamiliar to me. It was the setting of a novel I had once read, a tragic story where a neglected child grows into a misunderstood scholar and meets her end at the hands of her own father. Knowing that future, I resolved to survive by doing the opposite of what the story demanded. I would stay quiet, stay small, and stay out of sight. But the world did not allow me to remain unseen. I met Silas Argentum, my father, far earlier than I was ever meant to, and every interaction felt like walking on thin ice. Was he dangerous? Yes. Was he cruel? Perhaps. But he was also attentive in ways the novel never described. So tell me, if fate has already been written, what happens when the person meant to die decides to rewrite the story herself?Complete
