Ascending Pride

Ashton is stuck between an underwater volcano, and a heart devouring dragon. Metaphorically speaking anyway. The princess of the sea has sworn on her mother's life to drag him down. Problem is, Ashton can't be killed. So after hundreds of years of pulling beasts of legend to her side, rewriting history, and backing him into a corner where he broke his heart into pieces, she thinks that with one final push... she may convince Ashton to simply end his own existence. Ashton is fully aware of her little schemes, it's not every day a dragon get's its still beating heart ripped out, then is bound to the land it ruthlessly conquered. Ashton would have even found it mildly poetic that the slain dragon was now forced to bless the land for all eternity... if, and emphasis on the IF, the blessing hadn't been twisted into a curse for the last 700 years. Now, Ashton has a few minor inconveniences to deal with. First, he's stuck in a decaying body. Second his memories aren't fully intact. Third, it would prick his pride if the descendants of "blessed" dragon died while he was in their territory. Fourth, he has two really, really, REALLY scary siblings that don't always bother with the details. Fifth, the only reason this princess and her mother even had the chance to scheme against him is because he was looking for a possible mate. He's the only one of his kind, thousands of years alone has him craving for a companion... for a heart to sing just for him... There are really only two outcomes now that Ashton is starting to regain his memories. Will the princess succeed in dragging him down, used as the new sacrifice to keep the "blessing" going, or will he ascend? Well, maybe three outcomes. Maybe this time a heart will sing for him as he ascends... a bird can hope.

MARRIED TO A DEMON DUKE

“Your grace! Swear to me that I will be the only one to give you an heir!” I demanded, my voice breathy and firm while the duke and the members of court bore my statement a witness. “Your wish is my command, Duchess!” Alaric declared coldly. ********* In a world where dreams and reality collide, a young, whimsical girl from the 21st century finds herself inexplicably transported to the tumultuous 18th century—a realm brimming with demons, angels, enchanted beasts, shifters, and powerful witches.

The Starbound Codex: From Academy Outcast to Keeper of Ancient Magic

"You're nothing but a charity case with no real magic! Stay away from my research—and stay away from me!" Those were the words Lyra Ashford's former best friend and academic partner, Cassia Thornwood spat at her during the Academy's Grand Exhibition, right before stealing Lyra's groundbreaking thesis and presenting it as her own. In one night, Lyra lost everything: her research, her reputation, her scholarship, and the boy she'd loved since freshman year—Cassia's twin brother, Dorian, who stood by and did nothing. Humiliated and facing expulsion for "academic theft" that she never committed, Lyra is ready to leave Stellarium Academy forever. But a mysterious force pulls her to the Forbidden Archives, where she accidentally awakens an ancient sentient map called the Starbound Codex—a relic that chooses only one keeper per millennium. The Codex reveals that Stellarium Academy was built on top of seven sealed dimensions containing the lost magic of the Primordial Architects. Someone is trying to break these seals to steal that power, and the sabotage incidents plaguing the Academy are just the beginning. Worse still, Lyra's "lack of magic" was never a weakness—it was a seal placed on her as a child to hide her from those who would exploit her rare Cypher bloodline, descendants of the Architects themselves. Enter Kael Voidstrider, the Academy's most feared senior—a devastatingly brilliant combat mage with a cold reputation and mysterious scars, both physical and magical. He's the only one who believes in Lyra's innocence, and for reasons he won't fully explain, he needs her help to stop the coming catastrophe. As they're forced to work together, Lyra discovers that Kael's ice-cold exterior hides unimaginable pain, and his incredible devotion is reserved for one person only: her. With her powers awakening, enemies closing in from all sides, and her former best friend revealed as part of a darker conspiracy, Lyra must master lost magic, survive deadly trials in the Shattered Realms, and level up fast enough to save the Academy and possibly all magical dimensions. Because the map chose her for a reason. And this time, she's done being underestimated.

Ghost in the palace

Ananya never expected death to bring her into another life. One moment, she was running her parents’ restaurant in the modern world. The next, she opened her eyes in silk robes, surrounded by hostile stares — the Queen Consort of the empire. But this body was cursed in everyone’s eyes. The Emperor loathed her. The mistress laughed at her. And the court whispered behind her back. Only she wasn’t truly alone. > “Finally, someone can see us!” “What kind of Queen Consort are you, so calm even with ghosts in your chamber?” “Shut up, Wei Rong, let her breathe. She looks like she’s about to faint.” Three ghosts — a stoic scholar, a brash general, and a mischievous noble girl — lingered at her side. They were invisible to all but her. And with them, she learned to survive the poisonous palace. When rumors spread that she was cursed, Ananya stood before the empire’s court. Instead of tears, she offered proof. Instead of fear, she offered dignity. > “If Heaven believes I am cursed, let the fire and smoke betray me. I will not hide.” And Heaven sided with her. Outside the palace, crises struck — starving soldiers, missing supplies, merchants growing fat from stolen grain. Inside, Lady Zhen, the Emperor’s favored mistress, grew bolder by the day, flaunting her beauty and mocking Ananya’s quiet grace. > “Sister, do you still dream of winning His Majesty’s heart? Look at you — plain, dull, unworthy.” “If simplicity is a crime, then let it be mine,” Ananya answered, unshaken. The Emperor indulged Lady Zhen openly… but in the silence of night, he tasted Ananya’s food, lingered at her table, and found himself unsettled by her calm. > “This is not palace fare,” he muttered. “It is lighter,” Ananya replied softly. “Easier to sleep after.” Step by step, conspiracy thickened. At a grand banquet, a poisoned cup was placed in Ananya’s hand. But a ghost’s laugh echoed in her ear — and the cup was swapped. A dancer collapsed instead. From that night on, the Emperor’s gaze changed. He began to notice the woman who never begged for favor, never fought for attention, yet always endured. Still, war brewed at the borders. Betrayals reached even the throne. Assassins crept through the palace halls. And the one person who seemed weakest became the calm at the center of the storm. Through whispered secrets, mischievous hauntings, and quiet resilience, Ananya carved her place in the empire. She would not simply survive. She would rise. And the Emperor who once despised her would one day whisper only her name.
