On a cold night, tragedy struck the stronghold city of Emberhelm, and a family was torn apart by death. To repay a debt left behind, two children went into servitude by force. Now 12 years later, Aquamarine Argos has climbed the ladder of servants and earned her place as Head Maid to Baroness Castian. Even with such a powerful ally watching over her, she lives in constant fear of a demon in plain sight. Her twin brother Zircon is a fast-rising star in the military and the youngest knight in the kingdom. He is trying to rectify his past and earn freedom for himself and his sister. Both are plagued with nightmares and haunted by the ghosts of their past. However, nothing is ever as it seems, and tragedy strikes again.
Marnie will discover the truth of the past she could never escape. Zircon will unravel a betrayal of trust with a disastrous plot. A prince will find his allegiance is not where it should be. A king will learn that the one thing he needs is the only thing he may never possess. These are the lives of the legends that will forever change the realm of Zoshan. Friendships will be formed and tested, and lines will be drawn and crossed. Truths will be kept and revealed, but out of tragedy will rise, The Dragon King.

The Secrets of Ice and Fire
When Princess Alysanna Velaryon is sent to Winterfell to secure an alliance between the crown and the North, she leaves behind the politics of King's Landing-and the legacy of fire and blood-for the cold silence of snow and stone. Married to Lord Cregan Stark, Alysanna builds a new life among strangers, raising children in the shadow of duty, even as war stirs in the South. But peace is fragile. When old loyalties call her back to King's Landing to defend her brother Lucerys's claim to Driftmark, Alysanna finds herself torn between two worlds: the dragonblood of her birth and the wolves she has come to love. Amid betrayals, forbidden love, and the scars of war, she must confront the truth of her lineage-and the cost of the choices she's made. As the tides of war and family tear at her from every side, Alysanna's journey becomes one of survival, sacrifice, and identity. Can a dragon truly belong in the North? Or is she destined to burn for the life she tried to build? The Dragon in the North is an epic tale of love and loss, honor and betrayal, set against the backdrop of a realm poised on the edge of ruin. At its heart is a woman caught between two men, two worlds, and the legacy of a name too heavy to bear.Concluida

Reincarnated as Dragon's Sacrificial Bride
Synopsis: Aeris had never known love. As an orphan, she had spent her life yearning for warmth, for a place to call home. When she finally found someone who made her feel wanted, she clung to the illusion, believing that maybe-just maybe-she was no longer alone. But that illusion shattered the day she saw her lover in the arms of another woman. "You're pathetic," he sneered when she confronted him. And with one cruel shove, he sent her crashing against the wall. Pain struck her like a bolt of lightning, and then-darkness. She thought it was the end. Instead, she woke up in the body of a breathtaking maiden with long, silk-like black hair. Her limbs were bound, her vision blurred, and before she could even comprehend what was happening, she heard the chants of a ritual. She was being sacrificed-as a bride to a dragon. The people around her whispered prayers, their eyes filled with fear. They were offering her to him-the mighty, fearsome dragon lord who ruled these lands with fire and fury. She wasn't just anyone now. She was the chosen offering-the bride meant for the Dragon King. A being of pure darkness, a ruler feared across the world. They said he was a monster, a black-scaled dragon with a presence so overwhelming that the very air trembled in his wake. He controlled the elements and wielded power beyond imagination. He was ruthless, merciless, and unseen in his human form. No one had ever escaped his grasp. And now, she belonged to him. As the sky darkened and the great dragon descended from the heavens, his massive wings casting shadows over the trembling villagers, she finally saw him. Glowing red eyes, burning like molten fire, locked onto hers-not with rage, not with hunger, but with something unexpected. Curiosity. Possession. Fate had given her another chance. But was it a blessing or a curse? ---Concluida
The Last Dragon Song
Jeanette Valemere grew up believing in a world no one else could see- a kingdom of dragons, elves, satyrs, and cyclops, where her grandfather once flew with the King of Dragons himself. But when tragedy struck, the truth was stripped away. Her family told her it was only fantasy. The book that held her bond was taken. And she was forced to forget. Years later, on a class trip to Japan, a stranger with golden-flecked eyes finds her. He claims to know her name, her past, and the mark hidden on the bottom of her foot. He says their world-her world-is dying without her. Jeanette laughs it off. Until the dreams return. Until the book finds her again. Until she stands once more in Mythraenys, where dragons take human form and every bond has a price. Torn between the life she's built and the truth she abandoned, Jeanette must reclaim what was lost, face a friend turned traitor, and decide whether to fight for a world she was born to save. Because in the end, only one song can awaken the last dragon... and it may already be too late.Concluida

WARNING: This story contains major spoilers of the original book ACOTAR. In the aftermath of Solstice, Azriel's world is fracturing. Forbidden from pursuing Elain and watching his brothers' happiness from the shadows, the Shadowsinger of the Night Court teeters on the edge of a darkness five hundred years in the making. Each night, he destroys himself in the training ring, hoping pain might silence the whispers that urge him to take what he's been denied. Crystal arrives at the House of Wind carrying shadows of his own. A healer from the Winter Court with rose-quartz hair and ruby eyes, he possesses the rare gift of mending both body and soul. But the last time he opened his heart, it cost him everything, leaving Crystal with a shattered soul and a bone-deep terror of ever feeling that connection again. Neither expects the impossible--- Azriel's shadows reaching out to Crystal in the darkness, recognizing a kindred spirit in suffering. Crystal sees past Azriel's icy control to the male breaking beneath. Azriel glimpses the devastating loss Crystal hides behind his serene healer's mask. But some wounds run too deep for simple healing. Crystal flinches from their growing connection, terrified of what another bond might cost. Azriel struggles against centuries of self-denial, certain he doesn't deserve the light Crystal brings to his darkness. As war drums echo across Prythian and ancient enemies stir, both must decide: is the courage to love again worth the risk of losing everything? In a world where mates are destiny and bonds are forever, can two shattered souls forge something new from their broken pieces? Or will the coming storm destroy the fragile hope blooming between them? A story of second chances, healing, and finding light in the darkest places. Set in ACOTAR's world, "A Court of Shadows and Healing" explores what happens when the shadows finally find their light.Concluida
Ashes and Embers
Long before the floating kingdoms were built, the skies belonged to the dragons alone. Humans feared the skies and the creatures that ruled them. But everything changed when dark forces called Velkraths emerged from the earth - twisted echoes of dragons, corrupted by ancient magic and hunger. They began to burn the kingdoms from the skies downward. Desperate to save her people, a girl named Aerin climbed the highest peak to plead with the dragon Esharion. Instead of taking her life, the dragon saw her courage and bound his soul to hers. In that moment, the first dragon-rider bond was forged - a sacred link of minds and hearts. From Aerin and Esharion, the order of dragon riders was born. Dragons bond to their riders from birth, and when the rider comes of age, the dragon seeks them out. Over centuries, the riders defended the floating kingdom of Aerithal, their bond holding back the Velkraith threat. Yet the bond is dangerous-if one dies, the other often cannot survive the loss. Two childhood best friends, Riven, a quiet and loyal dragon rider, and Lyra, a bold and fiercely independent warrior-have trained side-by-side since they were twelve. Bound to their dragons, Virex and Sora, they've fought countless battles and saved each other's lives more times than they can count. But while Lyra sees Riven as her anchor and brother-in-arms, Riven has silently loved her for years. Lyra, however, is infatuated with Xanten, a charming and noble prince from the kingdom to the South called Medana. When an ancient, giant, monstrous dragon awakens, threatening to destroy their kingdom, Riven and Lyra are chosen for a perilous mission. As they venture deeper into enemy lands, Riven struggles with his feelings, caught between wanting Lyra to know the truth and fearing it would ruin everything they've builtConcluida
