"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.

It was a known fact: the veil between the worlds was getting thinner and thinner, so the possibility of a crash was already a certainty. The rumors started a long time ago, but no one did anything to stop it. Fortunately, time passed, we went through wars and race exterminations, but the Faerie Realms and the Mortal Lands remained almost the same, some richer and some poorer. Nobody was talking about the fallen, until now, when the fates started working their old, wicked magic and gave us an early Summer Soltice gift: an unprepared girl who was sent tumbling from the sky. Tumultuous and dangerous. Bitter and heart-rending. This is the story of the Evening Star, of the young woman who wields the Sun in her hands and wears the Moon upon her throat. Of the Cursed Crown, which bows to no master it does not choose. And of the man born of shadows, irrevocably bound to her by the tongue of death itself. And, in the end, it is also the story of us: the nothingness that reached, at last, for something greater than ruin. I am the Bloody Blade, former leader of the first legion, last of my kind, banished and tormented by dark memories and here is the beginning of our story. 𓆩✴𓆪 Content Warning: This story contains explicit sexual content (including consensual and non-consensual elements), graphic violence, trauma, and mature themes.

Each Treasure, a unique entity with its personality, destiny, and hidden power, is drawn into a cosmic tapestry of fate. From the earthy realms of nature to the celestial expanse of the cosmos, the Treasures traverse diverse dimensions, their fortunes intertwining in a grand narrative. While most seek to protect and balance the delicate equilibrium of these realms, a few harbor dark secrets, their ulterior motives threatening to plunge the universe into chaos. Meanwhile, a dark realm called the Shadow Realm looms as a constant threat. It gains energy whenever the equilibrium of the main realms is disrupted, feeding off negative emotions and violence. The Treasures' journey becomes even more perilous as they must not only confront their own internal struggles but also battle the encroaching darkness. At the heart of each Treasure lies a hidden brilliance - a mystical Token nestled between their eyes. This Token is a gateway to extraordinary abilities, a power waiting to be unleashed. But with great power comes great responsibility, and the Treasures must learn to harness their abilities wisely, lest they fall prey to their desires. As the Treasures' destinies collide, epic battles unfold, alliances are forged, and betrayals are revealed. Their journey is a testament to the power of friendship, the courage of the heart, and the eternal struggle between light and darkness.
