The Fire We Feed

Taryn fights monsters. Lucien is one. Season 1: Forced to team up by the very council she’s made to serve, Taryn finds herself trapped with Lucien—a vampire with too many secrets and a smile that makes her blood run hot. In the midst of growing dangers, the two of them must work together to survive. But the closer they get, the harder it becomes to tell where the real threat lies—outside their walls, or between them. Lucien knows better than to care. He’s spent years perfecting the art of detachment, but something about Taryn makes it impossible to stay indifferent. The fire she carries is fierce, dangerous—and every moment with her only stokes the flames higher. Bound by circumstance and haunted by shadows neither of them can outrun, Taryn and Lucien are playing a game they can’t afford to lose. The fire between them grows hotter with every step, but giving in might cost them everything. Some fires are meant to burn. Others consume. This one could destroy them both. Season 2: Framed for assassinations they didn’t commit, Taryn and Lucien are thrust into a deadly game where trust is scarce and betrayal lurks in every shadow. As the fragile peace between powerful factions begins to unravel, they must navigate a labyrinth of secrets and lies, uncovering dangerous truths about those who seek to control them. As tensions rise, their bond is tested in ways neither anticipated, and their personal struggles threaten to fracture their fragile partnership. Against the backdrop of a brewing war, new allies and enemies emerge, challenging their notions of trust and loyalty. As the season hurtles toward its climactic revelations, Taryn and Lucien must decide what they are willing to sacrifice—and who they can rely on—in a world that seeks to tear them apart. Season 2 is a story of survival, betrayal, and the unyielding strength found in the most unexpected places. Season 3: When safety is a fleeting memory and enemies circle ever closer, Taryn, Lucien, and Kah’el find themselves bound by necessity in a secluded forest haven. As mysterious threats prowl the shadows and signs of encroaching danger multiply, the trio works to fortify their defenses while grappling with unspoken tensions and buried truths. Strange tracks near their clearing suggest a threat greater than any of them anticipated, forcing them into a delicate balance of survival and trust. For Taryn, every decision risks fracturing the fragile alliance that’s formed between them, as the boundaries of loyalty blur and their individual pasts clash with their shared present. Season 3 is a tense, character-driven exploration of resilience and vulnerability, weaving quiet moments of connection with the ever-looming threat of a deadly unknown. In the end, it’s not only the beasts in the woods that must be faced, but the fears—and desires—they’ve long kept hidden.

Claimed by the Alien Lords: An Author’s Transmigration Tale

They Weren't Just Hot Aliens, They Were Beast Men Too~~~ ———————————— ————————— She was just a struggling author, but one night, she woke up as a maid in her own novel. The problem? She’s stuck in the castle of three devastatingly handsome alien lords—brothers with powers that could obliterate her with a flick of their fingers. Worse, in a world where females were mid at best, she had somehow made herself the prettiest woman alive. Now, jealous (and outrageously ugly) females are out for her blood, the lords won’t stop staring at her like she’s the answer to all their problems, and her so-called “author knowledge”? It’s practically useless. Why? Because the story she wrote? It’s not playing out as planned. The aliens can also transform into various animals—something she knows she wrote, but she had forgotten to specify what type of creatures. Was this supposed to happen? Did the world start glitching? Or had her subconscious added “hot alien shapeshifters” without consulting her? She didn’t know anymore, and honestly, she was too hungry, sweaty, and irritated to care. One brother craves her touch like she’s his personal drug. Another seems dead set on breaking her spirit. And the third? He’s got a dark secret that feels like a ticking time bomb, ready to ruin everything. Thalina thought the lords would be the only males she’d have to mate with, but now? She’s not so sure anymore. Trapped between the fiery envy of the castle’s women, the deadly allure of three alien lords, and a plotline spiraling out of her control, Thalina’s only goal is survival. Can she escape her own twisted creation, or is she doomed to live—and possibly die—as the protagonist of a story she never intended to star in?

Married To The Enemy Kingdom’s Illegitimate Prince

[MATURE CONTENT] He wanted to ruin her by every means but what happens when he is the one who becomes her protector in an enemy kingdom?   Can she survive in a kingdom where nothing but hostility awaits her? Synopsis:   In the year 299 of the Lunar System, a mysterious red streak fell to Earth, landing in unclaimed territory between the kingdoms of Eldoria and Selvarys. The discovery of magical red stones sparked a decade-long war between the two nations. To end the bloodshed, the kings of Eldoria and Selvarys arranged a marriage between Princess Cynthia, whose reputation in high society was marred by scandal, and Prince Lucian, the illegitimate son of Selvarys’s king. Princess Cynthia, known as a villainess and troublemaker, had recently faced a broken engagement. Despite her notoriety, she agreed to the marriage to stop the war and save her people. Prince Lucian, recently returned from the battlefield, despised the thought of marrying an enemy princess. However, as an illegitimate prince, obeying the king’s command was his only way to survive the palace conspiracies. In a marriage marked by mutual disdain and distrust, can they put aside their hatred and learn to live together? Or will the hostility surrounding them in the enemy kingdom be too great to overcome? Excerpt: “Your Highness, why do you always avoid looking at me when you speak?” Cynthia asked, her tone firm as she tilted her head curiously. “Is it because you can’t keep eye contact with me?” she added her words carrying a subtle edge. To Lucian, her remarks felt like thinly veiled criticism he heard countless times. He clenched his jaw, then raised his eyes, meeting Cynthia's gaze with his striking green-emerald eyes. “Are you mocking me, Your Highness?” Lucian asked quietly and lifted Cynthia's chin, leaning in closer, his eyes reflected his irritation at the princess’s harsh remarks, their faces nearly touching.  “Well, it doesn't matter to me. As long as you perform your duty as my wife properly, I will have nothing against you. But the moment you fail in your obligations,” his hand slipped on her shoulders as he stared deeply into her eyes.  “It’s the moment you will regret this marriage. You will regret marrying into an enemy kingdom where you have no one to protect you from harm. Where not even your husband is by your side.”  A soft chuckle escaped Cynthia, confusing the man before her. “I will not regret any of it. You will regret it when you fall in love with someone you don't even wish to see,” she mumbled. Disclaimer: This is enemies to lovers. Read only if this is your cup of tea! Volume 1: Married to The Enemy (Completed) Volume 2: Hatred (Completed) Volume 3: Revenge (Ongoing) Support the book with Power Stones, Golden Tickets and gifts!

Final Fantasy XIV: The Winter Calamity

Long had Eorzea lived to tell the story of her scars. The wounds brought about by ages past. Her reflections, some ruined, others desolate, could not claim to hold such bountiful life. Life full of potential. Time ticked for the star in a fated cycle. All things that shall come, would always come. But then the stranger, an obtuse creature with pink hair, appeared on the star's surface. This stranger swore like a sailor, fought like a monster, bred like a beast, and whispered stories that the star had never heard. Stories of her past. Her future. The stranger was confident. He had seen everything upon a fantastical tool called a "Wiki". And from whence he was "born" upon her tattered and fragmented surface, he vowed, not to save her, but to simply survive. Survive the coming crisis that he had forseen. Survive the crisis after of which he did not know. Survive the fate that all beings like him shared. The crippling weakness of "being a mob." "It's already hard enough on me, y'know? Surely you don't require more?" --- Chapter 39 - Happy 100k or whatever! Average Chapter Length: 3,000 Words Total Word Count: 110,000k Words --- Author's Note : I don't need your powerstones or xyz currency. FFXIV:TWC is a story that I wanted to write as an exercise. In fact, I'd love if this novel stayed as some niche and dusty thing that sat in the corner of your library. If you want to empty your wallets, I won't stop you, but remember that it has no impact on what gets written and what doesn't. No matter where I steer this ship, I do hope that you enjoy the ride. Oh and if you comment something mean, be careful the next time you cross the street, okay? ---
