The heresy of girls

NO SMUT. In the crown-bound kingdom of Valedryn, the Church teaches that humanity was cursed by a single girl. Ophelia — the first woman — defied God and was cast out of His garden. For her heresy, Heaven stripped mankind of its magic. Now humans kneel while elves and dwarves wield power like birthrights. Desperate for forgiveness, the priests offer God a penance. Punish the daughters. Girls are named omens, born sinful, and destroyed at birth. Only the most “useful” are spared — raised not as people, but as property of the throne. Veiled. Numbered. Promised to noble houses or the king himself to strengthen bloodlines that Heaven has long abandoned. They are never called she. Only it. Seris Zephyr was meant to be one of them. Too beautiful to discard, she is taken to the palace and groomed to become a royal vessel — obedient, silent, and grateful to serve. But Seris does not bow. She does not kneel. And no prayer has ever left her lips willingly. There is something wrong with her. Candles flare when she’s angry. Doors unlock at her touch. The air bends like it’s listening. Humans are not meant to have power. As whispers of unrest spread through the cathedral courts and the Church hunts for signs of divine punishment, Seris begins to suspect the kingdom’s greatest truth is a lie. Perhaps Ophelia did not curse humanity. Perhaps girls were never the sin. And if the throne discovers what Seris truly is, they won’t crown her. They’ll burn her. Because in Valedryn, a girl who refuses to bow is not just disobedient — she is heresy.

I Got Scammed By An Angel: Book 1

[A Year of Grace- Book 1] Nyxara When I woke up cold, leaning against a tree in the woods, I wondered if there were a few details I wasn't told by the angel who sent me here. It wasn’t long before the brothers I had lost in my past life found me—right as I was trying to find my way out of the woods. They brought me home to the parents who weren’t dead. Since I didn’t get this world’s Nyxara’s memories, I’m claiming amnesia due to trauma. When I was given the choice between redoing my own life or being sent to an alternate universe, I chose the second option. I didn’t want to deal with the shattered remains of my past. What I wasn’t told? While this is a very different life, some people from my old world are still making my life hell in this one. And now, they might have fangs, mind powers, or claws. I’m not the me in my last life, and I’m not the me of this life. So… who am I? On that note, what in the world is an alpha, beta, or omega? Looks like I have a lot to learn—and fast—if I want to graduate from the Sentinels of Accord Academy, let alone survive in a world filled with supernatural beings. It's a new exciting world just waiting for me to claim my place in it. Top 3 in the end of year competitions looks like a good start. This year is going to be amazing. (The romance is slow-burn. 5 mates in total. The romance doesn't really start in this book. All mates are introduced though.) [Daily Chapter Release and Free until completion]

Love in the Shadows _Unwavering Love

Some stories don’t end with love. Some hearts never heal. And some people love so deeply, it becomes fatal. Ayla Wilson loved Silas Williams for twelve years. For twelve years, he never looked back. She never asked to be chosen, only to stay close. Her love was quiet, invisible, and consuming. She learned how to exist in his shadow without touching his life, how to survive on distance without hope. Until the night she ran. A wedding gown soaked in rain. A locked door. A father who sold her future without remorse. With nowhere left to go, Ayla chose the one place she never should have, Silas. But the man she returned to was no longer a distant memory. He was controlled, restrained, devastatingly silent. He let her stay. He protected her. He never promised love. A marriage formed without desire. A home built on unspoken care. A devotion that grew deeper in silence, until one loss shattered everything. And Ayla learned that "loving someone who cannot say it back can destroy you just as completely as being abandoned." Silas Williams was never cruel. That was his greatest mistake. He didn’t raise his voice. He didn’t abandon her. He didn’t betray her love. He simply believed that staying was enough. Silas protected Ayla in the only ways he knew quietly, responsibly, without asking for anything in return. He gave her shelter, stability, and a place beside him. He believed love was something proven through actions, not words. He never realized that silence can wound deeper than rejection. He never understood that for someone like Ayla, love needed to be seen, spoken, and held before it was too late. And when everything finally broke, Silas learned the cruelest truth of all: "You can do nothing wrong and still lose everything." Redemption did not come with grand gestures. It came with regret. With absence. With learning how to love someone who no longer belonged to him. Cause some realizations arrive only after love is gone. And some men spend the rest of their lives chasing the damage they never meant to cause.
