Bound by Darkness (Book 1 of Arclight Academy Series)
"The weak don't survive here." At Arclight Academy, your worth is measured by the creature you bond with. For Serenya Vale, a scholarship student born with a chronic, progressive illness, surviving the brutal training seems impossible. She expects to fail. She expects to die. What she doesn't expect is Kairen Draxen. Lethal, silent, and wrapped in living darkness, Kairen is the only rider in centuries to bond with a shadow dragon. To survive his bond, he had to stop feeling entirely, turning himself into a cold, unyielding void. No one can break his control. Until Serenya walks through the iron gates. Suddenly, Kairen's shadows are acting on their own-escaping his command to pool at Serenya's feet and ease her pain. As the lethal academy trials begin, the two are forced into an impossible proximity. Bound by a cosmic soul connection that demands his darkness surrender to her light, Kairen is terrified of losing control, and Serenya is just trying to stay alive.

Valor Academy: Semester One
At Valor Academy, power decides who matters. Amira Castania was never supposed to belong among the wealthy elemental heirs, beautiful fae, and demigods raised to rule. She is a sharp tongued girl from the slums of Ithican with no influential family, no protection, and absolutely no intention of letting anyone see how terrified she is. But the more Amira learns to control her Fire, the more her magic refuses to follow the rules. Keeping her head down becomes impossible. Especially when she catches the attention of Drax Umbranox, the dangerously powerful son of the High Enforcer. Cruel, arrogant, and impossible to ignore, Drax seems determined to discover every secret Amira is trying to bury. Every argument between them burns too hot. Every threat feels too personal. And beneath his hatred lies something neither of them is willing to name. As forbidden abilities awaken and powerful families begin watching her, Amira realizes Valor Academy was never simply a school. It is a battlefield built upon bloodlines, secrets, and magic powerful people would kill to control. Amira came to Valor to master one element. She may leave with the power to destroy its entire order.Lengkap
BOOK 1: Marked by Flame ( Currently Editing)
*****BOOK ONE****** Set in a continent called Irevalen, where the skies are ruled by dragon-shifters - immortal beings who can take human form, but never fully shed their beast. Centuries ago, a Blood Treaty was made between dragons and the last surviving human kingdom. To maintain balance and peace, a dragon from the royal bloodline must bond with a human every 500 years - not just a marriage, but a soul-binding, deep magic deal that ensures dragons don't destroy the mortal realm with their fire and fury. The catch? The human bride is always chosen by fate. No one picks. No one can refuse. Or so they say. --- 🔥 The Male Lead: Kaelith Vyron, the current heir to the SKYCOURT throne - feared warrior, emotionless strategist, and cold-blooded dragon prince. Has rejected the idea of love his whole life. Is terrified of what the soul-bond might do to him (dragons who bond can be consumed by obsession). Is pissed that fate tied him to a weak, mortal girl. Thinks she'll break. Plans to scare her off. But she doesn't. And it wrecks him. --- 🕊️ The Female Lead: Liora Vane, 22-year-old healer's apprentice from the far southern coast. Orphaned young. Grew up with books, herbs, and freedom. Hates the idea of fate deciding who she marries. Thinks dragons are cruel, inhuman monsters. When she's taken from her village and presented to Kaelith, she fights back - hard. Swears she'll never belong to him. But then... she sees pieces of his humanity. And it terrifies her more than the fire ever did.Lengkap

Oath in the Smoke
"I will obey you. Serve you. Heal for you. Die for you-if that's what you want. I'll be loyal only to you until the day you decide I'm no longer useful," she said. The firelight danced across his physique as his face stayed still. "I could make you do all those things as we speak." Lord Varric's voice was laced with threat. "You could," Silvia said clutching her hands to fists, "but not ever without a fight." ------------------------- When Silvia's village is burned, the survivors are dragged to the war camp of Lord Varric - a ruthless warlord whose name is spoken like a curse. She appears broken and obedient, but her eyes are sharp, her mind unyielding. His men are forbidden from touching the enslaved women of her village-not out of mercy, but because they are coin to be sold. Yet they do not listen. Desperate to protect what's left of her people, Silvia breaks free from her binds one night to tell the lord himself, only to be struck down before Varric's eyes. She survives through the power of her healing - and learns quickly that his men's crimes don't seem to sway him. With nothing left to offer in return for her villages protection, Silvia pledges herself - her body, her gift, her loyalty - to the man who destroyed everything she loved. An oath of loyalty, fear and unshakable resolve. Lord Varric accepts, not out of compassion, but calculation, keeping her close as a weapon, a healer, and a mind to sharp to waste. Yet even under his cold command, Silvia refuses to break. And behind her quiet defiance, Varric finds himself torn - driven to crush it, yet unable to look away from it.

Valor Academy: Semester Two
DO NOT READ DESCRIPTION IF YOU DID NOT READ BOOK ONE ********************************SPOILERS******************************** Amira survived her first semester at Valor Academy. Her elements did not. Stripped of Earth and Air, left with only a dying ember of Fire, and exiled by the father she never knew she had, Amira returns to an academy already whispering about what happened on Harvestfest. Only a handful of people know the truth. Drax Umbranox took her powers. Amira took his hand. Now Drax is bound by a blood promise he cannot explain, forcing cruelty into every space where tenderness once lived. Amira cannot forgive him, but she cannot escape the unbearable tension still pulling them together. Every stolen glance feels like betrayal. Every moment of protection raises another question neither of them can answer. Then the shadows begin watching her. As violence spreads through Valor and the Council tightens its control, Amira uncovers poisoned loyalties, buried bloodlines, and a fate tied to the future of Portalios itself. Someone inside the academy is feeding Solen Umbranox information, and the darkness gathering around Amira may be the only power he cannot steal. To survive Semester Two, Amira must trust the people she once pushed away, build a family from fractured loyalties, and decide whether the boy who destroyed her might also be the one willing to burn the world to save her. Her elements are gone. Her rage is not.
The Raven and the Sea
**She was meant to disappear into the dark. Instead, the dark carried her home.** Aurelia was taken from the sea and broken beneath stone-her body chained, her voice stolen, her identity erased.

As Aurelia is drawn north into a land that blooms where it should rot.

Because she is not ordinary. She never was. And if the world learns what sleeps beneath her skin- Even the Black Throne will not stand tall enough to stop her.
