Andrew Black

Andrew Black — A Tale of Levison Dalte is a dark, multi-part saga set in the kingdom of Wruning. It follows Levison, a young assassin shaped by violence, who at the age of twelve slit his own brother’s throat by request. Not just any request, but one made by the brother himself, and sanctioned by the Black Association, an infamous group of killers. Nine years have passed. The nightmares haven’t. Levi is still haunted by green eyes, black dragons and a brother who only ever asks one thing: forgiveness. But Levi doesn’t forgive. He doesn’t wish peace on the brother who left him behind to save himself. Levi wants him to suffer. And yet, it’s Levi who cannot escape the torment. Now, the name no one has dared to whisper since that blood-soaked night resurfaces alongside secrets that threaten the very foundations of the Black Association… and the bearable existence Levi has only just managed to carve out for himself, a life stitched together not with joy, but with survival. It begins with a letter. A request for death. Sent to Andrew Black “the Father” to his sons and reigning head of the Association by none other than Merlissa Highmore, the beloved niece of the king. Heartbroken and desperate, she pleads for her life to end. Andrew sends his most troubled, most loyal assassin to assess the situation. Levison. Neither man expects what follows. What begins as a simple mission spirals into a war of ghosts and grief, dragging them all into a web of loss, vengeance, and unraveling identities. For Levi, what was meant to be a clean job becomes something far messier, something sweeter. Bound by shared tragedy, Merlissa and Levi find themselves entangled in a love with an expiration date. Because once Andrew Black accepts your name… survival is never part of the deal. Still, Levi hopes. Through Merlissa, and through others—Gavin, his cheery and devoted servant; Audria, the crown princess hiding a double life; Mortis, the old, caring physician; Hugh, a fellow “Son”; and Master Luu, Levi’s brutal mentor —Levi starts to open his heart again. But for every step forward, death drags him back two thousand steps.

From Pawn To Queen

Born into wealth but raised without love, Mariah Ashford has always been nothing more than a tool in her parents’ hands. Obedient. Silent. Replaceable. To save their collapsing company, they trade her away like a business contract—forcing her into a loveless marriage with Tony Wright, the arrogant heir of the richest family in the country. To him, she isn’t a wife. She’s a transaction. Humiliated, neglected, and forced to watch her husband flaunt his mistress in their home every night, Mariah endures it all, believing that if she tries hard enough, someone might finally choose her. But the night she’s pushed down the stairs and thrown out like trash. Something inside her breaks. Alone, injured, and abandoned, she collapses outside a hospital—only to be saved by a stranger. A quiet, dangerously handsome man with unreadable eyes. Asher Cross. A name whispered in the business world. A man more powerful than the Wrights. Richer. Untouchable. And for reasons she doesn’t understand, he refuses to let her go. For the first time in her life, Mariah is treated with warmth. With respect. With care. And when Asher discovers her hidden talent for fashion design, he does something no one has ever done before— He believes in her. With his silent protection and her own rising strength, Mariah begins to rebuild her life and her dreams. A new name. A new identity. A fashion empire of her own. But when her grand brand launch shakes the entire country and the elites receive an exclusive invitation… Her ex-husband. His mistress. And the parents who sold her. They all attend. Not knowing the woman they once discarded. Is now the queen standing above them all. This time? They’ll be the ones begging. And Mariah will never be anyone’s pawn again.
