Death Was Never Meant for the Villainess

Seraphina Hesperia De Gaspariz never asked to be the villainess of anyone’s story. She was born into a powerful family, raised in cold halls, and taught that showing emotions was a weakness. People misunderstood her from the beginning. She looked calm on the outside, but her heart was gentle. She cared deeply, but she didn’t know how to express it. Every time she tried, it came out wrong, and people judged her even more. Everyone around her believed the rumors. They thought she was heartless simply because she didn’t smile often or because her golden eyes looked too sharp. What they didn’t see was a lonely young woman who grew up without a mother, who faced pressure every day from a father who didn’t know how to love properly, and who spent most of her nights trying to convince herself she was strong enough to endure everything. She only had one dream: to be loved sincerely. To be understood by someone. And to have one person who chose her without doubts. For a while, she thought that person was Crown Prince Maverick. He treated her kindly when they were young. He protected her from cruel comments. He made her believe that she wasn’t alone. Seraphina treasured those moments more than anything, even if she never dared say how much he mattered to her. But as years passed, misunderstandings grew. Seraphina became quieter, colder, harder to read. Maverick became busier, confused, and distant. And then, everything collapsed. She was blamed for crimes she didn’t commit, accused of treason, called a poisoner. Marked as the villainess who wanted to destroy the heroine of the story. People pointed at her, whispered about her, and looked at her like she was the enemy of the entire kingdom. And the cruelest part was that the one person she hoped would stand beside her - didn’t. Maverick didn’t believe her. He didn’t defend her, he didn’t even look her in the eyes when she begged him to trust her. Seraphina died with a heart full of pain, regret, and unanswered questions. She left the world wondering why no one ever tried to understand her, why love was always out of reach, and why being herself was never enough. But death was not her ending. Seraphina wakes up one morning in her younger body as a baby - many years before her execution. For a moment she thinks it’s a dream, but the familiar room, the younger reflection in the mirror, and the long-forgotten warmth of the sun on her face tell her the truth: She has been given a second chance. This time, she refuses to live the same painful life. She refuses to let lies destroy her again. She refuses to let people walk over her heart. Most of all, she refuses to love Maverick in silence. Seraphina plans to rewrite everything: her story, her future, her happiness. She wants to fix what was broken. She wants to protect herself. She wants to change the way Maverick sees her - not by pretending to be someone else, but by finally showing her true self, the one she hid for so long. She will uncover who framed her, rebuild her relationships, fight for her place in a world that tried to erase her and will protect the younger version of herself who once felt so alone. And step by step, she will try to capture his heart again. Not because she is the villainess people feared, but because she is finally living as the woman she always wanted to be. And the real question is - Will she succeed getting her happy ending?

Dreamwalker's Bride

“You are the least objectionable groom of all the ones I’ve seen,” Anaisa replied seriously. “Thank you for the glowing compliment,” Trace grinned, “but that didn’t quite answer my question.” ___ Anaisa is an orphan and a pariah. In an ultimate act of betrayal, her father, a Count of the Realm, is accused of deserting and betraying the army in a time of war.

Anaisa swears someday she will get her title and lands back, but in the mean time, she and her sister Katia have to figure out how to survive. Trace is an anomaly among his people; instead of revealing their son as a magic user and thrusting him into the public eye, his parents kept it a secret to allow him to choose the kind of life he wanted. Trace found himself content to rest and play in his own dream world instead of invading the nighttime visions of others. As an adult, his choice to remain unknown is thrown into jeopardy when a mysterious blackmailer forces Trace to enlist in the territorial war between nations, threatening to reveal his secret if the demand is not met. With the war now over, Trace believes he can finally go home to his farm and live the simple, unremarkable life he’s always desired. When Anaisa and Trace are thrown together by a royal edict, the sisters find themselves unwittingly tangled in the web of mystery and intrigue that surrounds the blackmailer’s escalating assignments for Trace. Anaisa begins to suspect it may be connected to the plot to replace her family in the noble court. As the scheme continues to unfold, lives, loves, marriages, and magic will be put to the test to see what forces in the world are strongest.

She refuses to recognize him, Disregarding all he ever was. He vows to protect her. Yet he is the terrifying truth she prays is a lie. He trips her, rips her apart— He's the living tragedy looming over her life. He once was her Elayne, now her hiraeth. He is the villain—pretending to be the hero. --- The Lord is the way— Steady through the wilderness. The King is the truth— Burning through the lies. The Father is the life— Breathing spirit into dust. She kneels before the Ruler, The God who shaped galaxies— He has called her a poet. Her tongue shall be anointed. Her poetry shall be the rivers of His word. She will scatter seeds in broken fields, And He will send the sun. He will send the rain. He will draw the roots down deep. He yields to the Ruler, The God of blazing holiness— He has called him a soldier. His fists shall be unclenched. The sword of the Spirit rests in his grip. He will shield the sower of the seeds, As storms rise against the harvest. His strength will be not his own, But drawn from the marrow of grace. This faith shall shake the mountains, For He has conquered the filth of the flesh. This flame will cleanse the shadows. For He has defeated the darkness. This love shall live on for eternity, For He has overcome the mortal world.

The smile of Miraline!

"She was born to heal. They used her to bleed. Now they expect her to love." Miraline is the first daughter born to House Serathiel in over twelve thousand years — a living miracle, destined to carry the sacred gift of her fairy bloodline. Her blood can heal any illness, any wound. Given willingly, it is salvation. But taken by force, it becomes the most potent poison alive — invisible, undetectable, and fatal. She was stolen before her mother could hold her. Raised in secret, used like a holy resource by those who saw her not as a girl, but as a cure. Her life became a quiet horror — her body not her own, her gift turned against her. She learned to survive. To obey. To hurt in silence. At fourteen, her first blood awakened the ancient bonds of her lineage — a pulse of ancestral magic that flared in her father and five older brothers, each a legend in their own right. They followed the bond to her prison. They destroyed every man who ever touched her blood. And they brought her home. But the palace walls feel no safer. The brothers who wept at her return are strangers to her. The father who would die for her is the king she cannot look in the eye. She does not trust them — not yet. Maybe not ever. But still, she wears the crown of her birthright. She mends the broken with trembling hands. She carries out her duty with quiet courage — even when her heart is still bleeding. "She is the daughter they waited twelve millennia for. But she is not the savior, sister or daughter they expected. She is hurt. She is wary. And she is not done becoming."
