He carried it alone.
For years, Zaniel walked among them - quiet, helpful, always trying just a little too hard to be good enough. He smiled, he worked, he never asked for anything - all the while hiding a secret he believed made him wrong. Broken. Unworthy of being loved.
When the fear became too much to bear, he ran. He climbed into the cold, cruel mountains, convinced he had to disappear before anyone discovered the truth about him. He expected silence. He expected rejection. He expected to die alone beneath the ice - and that he deserved it.
But they came for him.

Glass Midnight | A Fairy Tale
Clara grew up on faerie tales, but never once thought the fae would leap from the pages of her storybooks and steal her mother away. When her mother is kidnapped by a faerie and secrets about her father come to light, Clara is forced into an adventure she never thought possible. Relying on her curiosity, knack for helping others, and the trail of hints left behind by her parents, Clara must find a way to save her mother and support her siblings before her world crumbles fully apart. Featuring princes in disguise, magic, and more mystery than Clara could've ever imagined, the path to the answers she seeks is twisted and turning, as she discovers the truth about the faerie tales she thought she knew as well as the truth about herself. ------ A fairy tale story and the final rough draft of the story, once called Glass Slippers. While there are aspects of a Cinderella esque story in the plot, it's a tale that stands apart from the same old story.Complete
Interdimensional Pirates
Interdimensional Pirates- known throughout the dimensions as gangs of trained thieves who travel through worlds to collect magical and valuable artifacts. But to Kota- an 18-year-old recovered criminal, who lives paycheck to paycheck, struggling to survive alone in the city, oblivious to the existence of the other dimensions and artifacts- they were the people who stole his locket, the last thing he had left of his recently deceased grandmother. She was the only person who had ever cared about him, so he was willing to get that locket back, even if it meant stealing it from his sickeningly rich half-brother's vault, becoming a wanted criminal and chasing down pirates to get it. ~ What to expect: ☠️ Slow start, picks up around chapter 5 ☠️ Male MC growth ☠️ Fantasy worlds and cultures ☠️ Mystery, adventure, action, fantasy ☠️ Mature themes of gore, torture, grief and death (trigger warning ⚠️) ☠️ Clean from mature romance themes ☠️ Detailed character descriptions, pages, and photos ☠️Morally grey characters and MC ☠️Original magical concepts, worlds, artifacts, and so on. ☠️Pirates, ships, fighting, portals, maps, treasure hunts, and so on ☠️Hand drawn digital maps ☠️World building glossaries Progress: 63k words Chapter 25 Disclaimer: ⚠️This is the first draft.

Redeeming the Lost (A Comforter's Tale)
Life is always fun when you never get into trouble for causing mischief. Julie is a pro at keeping her packmates on their toes with her innocent fun. It's a perk of being a Comforter and never losing her puppy-like appearance. Admittedly, there are times when her skills are needed, and she takes her job quite seriously then. She isn't a fighter, but rather, is one who cares for others' hearts. A Comforter. After all, who doesn't want to hug a puppy? But those in need of comfort are often in pain and feel surrounded by darkness. To be a light in someone's world, you will have to walk through the darkness. --------------------- What do most werewolf books have in common? They either focus on mates or on fighting. I decided to try a more unique route. No romance will be found here - this book focuses on the ties of friendship and hope.

By The Light Of The Moon
What do you get when you mix a trader woman, a cursed werewolf, a dangerous forest, and a sadistic warlord? Nothing good. On her way home from a summer of trading, Olivia didn't want to hire a cursed werewolf as an escort, but he was the only one willing to guide her over the treacherous Navier mountains. Not only do they have to contend with bandits and dangerous animals lurking among the trees, but they also have to dodge unscrupulous war parties who are determined to track them down. They forgot one thing though - curses don't play by the rules. ---------------- Please note that this is NOT a love-at-first-sight or matebond werewolf style of book, nor does it have werewolf ranks like Alphas, Betas, or Omegas. This book isn't a horror story. It's more of a fantasy-adventure theme. This book has nothing in common with my other werewolf stories. Copyright March 2022. All Rights Reserved.

Tricked Into Flight
Desperate to keep her magic hidden, Katerina goes to great lengths to avoid dragons and mages. When she gets cornered by evil mages, her only chance at escape involves freeing a trapped dragon. * * * Katerina's biggest fear is that unscrupulous mages or dragons would discover her magic and use her as a living magical battery. When she stumbles into a group of evil mages trying to magically enslave a dragon, she releases the dragon to act as a distraction, hoping he would attack the mages while she escaped. But magic has rules, and when you free a dragon mage, it creates magedebt that they must repay, lest their magic fade. Forced to travel together, Katerina struggles to hide her magic as she accompanies Rakota and his friends while they hunt down the Shadow Mages. Rakota is one of many dragons who detest humans due to how many have tried to slay him, steal his treasure, or control him with magic. He has no desire for a rider, but when his childhood sweetheart shows up, she won't consider courtship unless he has one. As if evil mages with ancient spells aren't enough, word comes from the coast that the nagas are planning to invade and wipe out the humans. Goals and secrets clash as Katerina strives to keep her magic hidden, yet that very magic might be the key to stopping the war, and becoming Rakota's rider would give him the family he's always dreamed of. But all magic has a price, and to become a rider, she'd have to forfeit her freedom. Copyright November 2022. All Rights Reserved. Readers may not copy or steal this story.

The Queen locked her cold stare onto the dragon who sat before her, which unfortunately was me. "I need you to stay on my side. You are aware the reasons behind the declaration for war, yes?" "Yes, your highness." "Then you understand my problem. One, anyways." She looked away, as if talking to herself. "Do you have another problem, highness?" The Queen looked around to make sure no one else was nearby. Then, she leaned in slightly and whispered, "Dark Dragons." "Dark... Dragons...? Is there such a thing, highness?" I cocked my head at the unfamiliar term. "Indeed. They roam everywhere outside of my kingdom. They threaten our very existence." She sighed, deeply troubled. "Dark Dragons are what we call multi-element dragons, and all of them are marked with a red symbol, of course it varies how it looks with each one..." I sat upright, and tightened my stomach muscles.
