The Sevenbound Sovereign: The Sovereign Arcana

Twenty‑one‑year‑old Sorrel only wanted a normal night out. Instead, her date turns dangerous—too fast, too suddenly—and she runs for her life into the one place no human should ever enter: the Veilwood. The forest should have rejected her. Its boundaries have been sealed for a century, swallowing anyone who tries to cross. But Sorrel’s terror awakens something ancient inside her. Her dormant Sovereign Arcana flares to life, opening the Veilwood’s barrier just long enough for her to slip through. The forest senses her fear… and chooses her. Crossing the threshold triggers the Sevenfold Binding, tethering Sorrel to seven powerful men whose magic answers hers: a storm‑touched warrior, a shadow‑born spy, a wildfire mage, a gentle healer rooted in earth, a silver‑tongued illusionist, a moon‑blessed seer, and the boundary‑breaker who should not exist. Their fates are now tied to her survival. Their instincts sharpen around her. And the Veilwood itself begins to wake. Hunted by the prince who destroyed her family, Sorrel must learn why the forest opened for her—and why the Arcana has returned after a century of silence. But the deeper her bond with the Seven grows, the more dangerous her destiny becomes. The Veilwood did not choose lightly. And Sorrel is no one’s pawn. To survive, she must decide whether to run from the power inside her… or rise as the Sovereign the realm has been waiting for.

The Ones The Tide Forgets

In the coastal nation of Elaris, the sea gives back what it wants — and keeps what it doesn’t. Kael Virek has built his life retrieving lost things from beneath the harbor waters. Rings, heirlooms, wreckage. He returns what others mourn. It is the only way he knows how to be useful in a world that never chose him. Abandoned at birth and raised through institutions that misplaced his records and erased his history, Kael learned early that people do not stay. So he doesn’t either. Then the diagnosis comes. A degenerative neurological condition. Not instant death. Not dramatic collapse. Just slow erosion. Tremors. Fading coordination. The eventual loss of the one thing that defines him — his ability to dive. Across the city, Mira Solenne is preparing to marry into political power. Her engagement promises security for her struggling family. Stability. Respectability. A future that looks flawless from the outside. Inside, she feels nothing. When a harbor incident ties Kael to the Solenne estate in public controversy, their lives collide. What begins as reluctant proximity turns into an uneasy alliance when Mira makes a reckless decision that could destroy her family’s standing — and Kael offers to take part of the blame. To control scandal, they agree to a temporary arrangement. Temporary becomes complicated. Kael sees through Mira’s composure. Mira senses the quiet fracture beneath Kael’s humor. As the sea becomes both refuge and threat, Kael hides the progression of his condition while pushing Mira away whenever she gets too close. He believes love is cruelty if you know you might disappear. But Mira refuses to be managed. Their journey takes them beyond Elaris — across coastal towns, abandoned piers, forgotten amusement parks, and small villages where no one knows their names. With each chapter, Kael’s tremors worsen. With each chapter, Mira chooses him more deliberately. Love becomes an act of defiance. The central question shifts: Is it kinder to leave before you fade… Or to stay and let someone witness the fall? When Kael finally loses control underwater during a storm rescue, the illusion of independence shatters. The tide almost claims him — not dramatically, but indifferently. In the final chapters, Mira makes the choice Kael never could: She stays. Not because he will survive. Not because it will be easy. But because belonging is not about permanence. It is about presence. The novel closes on the shoreline months later. Kael no longer dives. His hands shake openly now. The sea is still there. He is no longer afraid of being forgotten. Because someone remembers.

Team Zero - Detective Squad

He chose every single member of his squad. She was the one he never chose. Kang Dae-hyun is a legend. The kind of detective other detectives tell stories about. So when the Commissioner gives him orders to handpick his own special investigations unit, he does what he does best—he chooses the best of the best. A veteran who's seen it all. A tech genius who can find anyone. A former special forces soldier who never backs down. A rookie with impossible instincts. A profiler who reads people like books. Perfect. Balanced. His team. Then the Commissioner makes one more call. Yoon Seo-ah was Korea's most famous actress. Now she's a freshly graduated police officer with zero field experience, zero street knowledge, and zero business being anywhere near a real investigation. She doesn't want to be on Team Zero. He doesn't want her there either. But the Commissioner doesn't explain himself. He never does. And in this job, you don't ask questions—you solve cases. Now the most untested detective in Seoul is working alongside the most unorthodox squad in police history. Murders. Robberies. Conspiracies that reach higher than anyone wants to admit. Case after case, they'll have to figure out if she sinks or swims. If she becomes one of them. Or if she tears them apart. What happens when a woman who spent her life pretending meets six people who deal only in truth? Do they solve the cases? Do they fall in love? Does she find the justice she never said she was looking for? Or does someone on Team Zero have secrets that could destroy them all? No one knows. Not even them.

The Cartographer’s Heresy

In an age when maps can conquer more than armies, Elena Valenti learns to draw the world in secret. Born in sixteenth-century Venice to the royal cartographer of the Portuguese crown, she grows up among compasses and parchment — tools that decide the fates of nations. But Elena’s gift is more dangerous than her father ever imagined: she alters the maps that feed empires, hiding villages, sacred sites, and entire peoples from the greedy eyes of kings. When her deception is exposed, Elena’s world collapses. Her father is executed for treason, imperial fleets are dispatched to hunt her down, and the cartographers she once idolized become her fiercest enemies. Armed with nothing but ink, stolen charts, and a secret atlas written in codes no conqueror can read, she flees across oceans — pursued by soldiers, spies, and rival mapmakers who would kill for the knowledge she carries. From the markets of Lisbon to the gold-dusted cities of West Africa, from the palaces of Mughal India to the misty peaks of the Andes, Elena’s journey becomes more than a flight for survival. It is a mission to rewrite the world itself. Along the way, she forges unlikely alliances — a priestess who encodes landscapes into song, a ronin who reads the sea like scripture, a rebel princess who believes maps are prisons. Each teaches her a truth the empires fear: that land does not belong to those who claim it, but to those who remember it. But as the hunt closes in and a single map — older than any empire — threatens to upend the order of the world, Elena must face an impossible choice. To protect what she loves, she may have to destroy everything she once believed about truth, power, and the very shape of the Earth. Sweeping from Renaissance Europe to the uncharted edges of the known world, The Cartographer’s Heresy is a story of courage and betrayal, ink and blood, and a young woman who turns cartography into rebellion. It is about how maps do more than chart the world — they define it — and how one woman dares to redraw its lines.
