Can someone with dark magic really use it for the right reasons? Can she control the darkness or will it control her?
Striga was abandoned by her parents for her uncontrollable dark magic. Taken in by Cornelius, a court Sorcerer, her magic is too dangerous. She is in need of a new guard and who better to serve her then a woman?
Zofia is the daughter of a Knight and a royal guard herself. Her high levels of sass infuriate the high quality Sorceress. But when Zofia guards her too well, a person ends up dead and Striga's true power starts to get revealed.
In an effort to learn more about Striga's magic and keeping her safe, the two go on a quest where they face a threat far worse than they can imagine.

BEYOND: The Nameless Eater
The spirits made manifest by mankind's consciousness seek nothing but tyranny and chaos, possessing humans and corrupting them into monsters. However, those with enough mental fortitude tame these spirits within them and become capable of controlling the powers of these spectral demons. In this Journal that I have salvaged, you'll follow the perspective of the blindfolded Damien Lopez, a boy (Probably) with more going on with him than what meets the eye in his struggle to reclaim the peaceful life robbed from him by the cold whims of fate and discover concepts along the way, such as 'Love', 'Friendship', 'Forgiveness' and most importantly, 'Clobbering the life out of demons'.

The Sorcerer's Apprentice
A world where magic must be hidden from mankind is a world where mages have no reason to exist. Zara was one of them--a young woman forced to spend her days in confinement, to lessen the risks of outsiders discovering the truth. She was not human. She was, as they say, a living embodiment of a thousand year old curse upon the Kingdom and humanity as a whole. And the only way to handle a curse, is to get rid of it--which is precisely what the Kingdom has proceeded in doing for centuries--eliminating any being that contained even an ounce of enchanted blood. Zara's lived most of her life with the threat of death hanging over her head. Though this never averted her heightening curiosity about magic, nor the abilities innate within her. And when a powerful, enigmatic Sorcerer comes to her with a proposition, Zara finally sees her chance to embrace the curse she was born with. It was a chance laced with precarity and destruction, but a chance nonetheless...
The Dragon Knight; The Awakening of the Legend
{Busy rewriting} ** Book One ** Blanchefleur isn't exactly a perfect Princess; she knows it, her parents know it, everybody else knows it, though the fact had long since been accepted. But when she bonds with a young dragon named Zjarr, it is like she opened the door for trouble. Not only does she (sort of) set of a war with a neighboring Kingdom, but she also (kind of) forces an ancient prophecy onto herself, her dragon and a young man from the castle, Robin. In order to save her continent, Blanchefleur will have to learn a great deal of new things, travel to new places, make allies, and above all, she needs to stay alive. A long forgotten evil rises again, and she will need to face it sooner or later.Complete

She is an orphan and grew up in a Home for Magical Children on Mage Island, floating in the middle of the Pacific. Under constant watch and scrutiny from the Guild, Claire now finds herself working side by side with a Black, the very family that was breed to become mage assassins, killing thousands of her people. The fact that the Black is also a handsome man does not help Claire's case at all. Raven has nothing to do with his family and yet is hostile to Claire upon finding out she's a mage. He worked as a detective to make sure everyone had equal justice but when he got his new partner Claire his world is thrown upside down. Not only is she a mage whom he silently despises but she's also the most beautiful woman he's ever laid eyes on. As they work together and find a rocky truce between themselves they travel the city solving crimes with a magical association. Raven accepts Claire without cause while Claire lays her life down for the man who stole her heart. As they fall for one another a dark figure lerks in the shadows, plotting something sinister for our mage Claire. Could this dark figure perhaps have something to do with Claire's unclear past? Can Raven, a Black, somehow save this woman before she's taken from him forever?Complete
