    Before there was Starfall, there was Starblood. Long before the Academy became a legend whispered through generations, it was nothing more than an impossible dream built upon cursed earth. Founded in an age of endless bloodshed, Thornwick Starblood was created to unite the Twenty-Five Magical Orders... witches, wolves, vampires, heroes, villains, and powers long forgotten. Within its black stone walls, sworn enemies were commanded to study beneath the same roof, proving that peace could be stronger than prophecy. But peace has always demanded a price. Among the seven sons born to one of the oldest bloodlines in history, fate chose not one... but two. Twin brothers. One was destined to become the Academy's brightest hope. The other, its greatest nightmare. One was loved by the moon. The other answered to the night. As rival kingdoms sharpen their swords and the ancient war between wolves and vampires threatens to consume the continent, the twins find themselves standing on opposite sides of history. Every lesson within Thornwick is meant to bring unity, yet every heartbeat pushes them further apart. Their rivalry becomes more than family... it becomes a legend. Hero and villain. Savior and warrior. Two names that future generations will remember differently depending on who survives to tell the tale. Within halls still scented with fresh mortar and candle smoke, friendships bloom beside betrayal. Forbidden romances take root where hatred was meant to flourish. Oaths are broken beneath stained-glass ceilings, while the forest surrounding the Academy swallows secrets that should never have been buried. They say Thornwick Starfall was built upon sacrifice. They never tell you whose blood laid its first stone. This is the forgotten beginning. The year when the Academy was still called Thornwick Starblood. The year peace was born... ...and the first villain was written into history.

    In a nation drunk on nostalgia for a greatness that never was, a cunning Patriarch, believing himself chosen by God, makes a devil's bargain: to forge a new world, he must first create its god. He stitches his heir together from the rotten parts of history, nepotism, flattery, and inherited privilege and unleashes this hollow idol upon the land. To serve this new regime, he offers women a gilded cage: renounce your mind, your alliances, your very self, and you will be crowned a "Crown-Consort", a jeweled accessory to power, worshipped for your obedience. Those who sense the rot the artists, the healers, the thinkers vanish into the night, guided by a secret network that leads them to a new world. They choose freedom over gilding. But those who remain, the "Loyal-Jewels," clutch their privileges tightly. They betray their sisters for a ribbon of approval, enforce the new scriptures that declare silence a virtue, and marvel at the splendor of their shrinking world. They believe their devotion will protect them. They are wrong. For a society that devours its own soul soon hungers for other meat. As the Patriarch's heir ascends, propped up by the fervor of his followers, the laws twist into grotesque new shapes. The sermons grow violent, the spectacles bloody. The Loyal-Jewels, in their sapphire gowns and emerald chains, find the walls of their cage are not made of gold, but of knives, and they are trapped inside with the monster they helped to create. It is the confession of the most celebrated Loyal-Jewel of them all, who now writes from the ruins, telling the tale of how they harvested a world of hollow idols and found nothing inside but dust and hunger.

    "Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil." - Ephesians 6:11 The devil slithers like a serpent and roars like a lion. And even God's strongest soldiers can be deceived by his lies and fall into despair. Tom's biggest sin was trusting the deluding words of his own personal demon, haunting him like a lingering shadow. Not even his love for God, nor his love for the people as a priest were enough to overcome his fear of getting rid of the past that had been following him. Care to witness the consequences of his actions?

    When a young transgender CNA begins working the night shift at a rural South Dakota nursing home, she uncovers an ancient evil feeding on the elderly, forcing her to embrace the forbidden magic of her bloodline before the creature drinks the years from everyone she loves. Night shift is supposed to be quiet. For April, a twenty-three-year-old CNA trying to outrun grief, it is a chance to start over in the forgotten farming town of Redfield, South Dakota. The residents are lonely, the hallways never seem to sleep, and one woman with dementia keeps insisting that something walks the corridors after dark. Then a nurse disappears. Patients begin dying in impossible ways. The crops surrounding town wither as though time itself is being stolen. And every new traveling nurse seems just a little too perfect. As reality unravels, April discovers her late mother's hidden legacy-a bloodline of African witches, an ancient vampire older than history itself, and a ritual that could save the town... at the cost of unleashing a god of death. Told entirely through haunting free-verse poetry, To Drink the Years is a Southern Gothic horror novel about memory, aging, grief, found family, and the monsters that feed on both our blood and our regrets.

    Hell is the silence after the last prayer goes unanswered. It's ash in the lungs. It's choirs tuning their throats to scream. It's the sound of something leaving, and the world realizing it was the only thing holding the walls up. They came from there. Or they made it. No one's sure anymore. Four shapes in the smoke. Four names Heaven won't say out loud. One walks, and cities forget how to stand.She's devouring the distance between cause and effect, and she's still hungry. One burns. Not with flame - with memory. Every battlefield he left behind follows him now, ash and bone and rage. He devours war. Then he makes more. One writes. The world isn't ready for the words. Ink runs like blood from the margins of reality. He's consuming truth, page by page, and replacing it with questions that bleed. One smiles. White robes, white lies. He devours faith. He devours mercy. He leaves holes where saints used to be, and the light that pours out isn't holy. They were angels. Now they're famine. They're plague. They're the end of the song. Heaven closed the gates. They didn't knock. They're chewing through the hinges. The recall failed. The litany began. And Hell? Hell was just the first course. Litany of the Unforgiven They said no to God. Now the world says yes to them.

You are now complicit, dear reader, in the uncovering of what is within these pages of my experiences within the Crain House. And whatever walked there did not walk alone, knowing there is truth behind madness and lies.

    For a millennium, the earth lay heavy over a secret the world tried to forget: Don Vane , a vampire hybrid crossbred, buried alive not for her own crimes alone, but for the sins of others . After being forced to witness the horrific death of her wife, Levi, Don was hunted down and branded below the ribs by a group of hunters . That brand was more than a mark of hate; it was a magical seal that locked away her immense power, leaving her to rot in a grave for a thousand years while the descendants of her tormentors built a golden empire upon her silence . Now, the earth has given up its dead, and Don has returned with a single, cold purpose: revenge. Her target is The Royal Prestige Academy, the ultimate breeding ground for the elite and the heart of the Thorne legacy-the very lineage connected to those who branded her . She does not come with open warfare, but with a calculated, deadly deception. To gain total access to the Thorne name, its vast resources, and its deepest secrets, Don's Father proposes a marriage to the academy's golden heir, Leven Allistair Thorne . She stages the union with such precision that Leven doesn't realize that Don has an agenda until it is far too late to escape . But as Don weaves her web of vengeance within the academy walls, she encounters a variable she never factored into her thousand-year plan: mercy. In a cruel twist of fate, she finds herself falling in love with Leven-the very man who should be her greatest rival and the ultimate victim of her retribution . As the ancient power behind her brand begins to stir and her pregnancy-a rare and dangerous occurrence for her kind-threatens to anchor her to this new world, Don must decide: Will she finish the massacre she started ten centuries ago, or will the man she was meant to destroy be the only one capable of saving her soul? Old Sins, New Games: Blood Sovereignty and Broken Crowns is a haunting tale of an ancient heart seeking justice in a modern world.
