Shadow Of The Heart Gl

In the kingdom of Aetherholt, a dark prophecy casts a long shadow over the birth of twin princes, Kael and Alaric. When an ancient curse threatens infant Kael, King Aric makes a desperate, secret pact with the enigmatic Veil, saving his son but binding himself to a chilling, consuming power known as Veilfire. Years later, as corrupted Riven Lords emerge and Prince Kael mysteriously vanishes, the true horror awakens: the Echo, a cosmic entity of unmaking, begins to consume Aetherholt. Kael reappears, no longer himself, but a terrifying conduit for the Echo, unleashing its destructive power from within the castle walls. As King Aric descends into a cold, relentless Warden, battling the Echo with his agonizing Veilfire, Queen Seraphina races against time. Her desperate research uncovers not only Alaric's inherent, pure counter-aura, but also the forbidden Altar of Severance and its horrifying truth: a ritual to free Kael, but at "The Price"—a soul-rending cost that will forever fracture the twins. In a climactic, brutal confrontation, Aric makes the ultimate sacrifice, using his consumed essence to contain the Echo within the shattered Ley Lines of Aetherholt. The kingdom is saved, but at an unbearable cost: Aric is unmade, and Kael and Alaric are left as profoundly changed "shadow" and "light" fragments, their bond irrevocably fractured. Volume One plunges into a world where salvation demands unimaginable sacrifice, and peace is merely the quiet after the storm.

Time’s broken. Like actually broken. Not just “oops, we messed something up.” I mean timelines are crashing into each other, and reality is glitching like it’s stuck on a scratched CD from 2003. If that even makes sense anymore. Monster if we can even call it that, are pouring out disrupting the peace of the realm. Six guardians. Not chosen. Not ready. Just... stuck. Thrown together with no warning, no real plan, and barely enough patience to not strangle each other. They have to fight this monsters that are indestructible altogether keeping time from crumbling. It all started with the crack in the Hearthstone. One little fracture and then boom everything unraveled. The past? It’s not staying where it’s supposed to. The present? Confused. The future? Probably dead. They’re supposed to fix it. Fix time. Yeah, no pressure. And it’s not just “run around and close the rift.” Because the deeper they get, the messier it all becomes. There are secrets none of them want to say out loud. Betrayals that haven’t even happened yet but still somehow already hurt. Love that might not survive this. Hate that probably will. And the worst part? The balance between realms? The thing everyone thought was keeping the world in check? Fake. It was never real. Just a story to keep people calm. Now everything’s falling apart. Fast. And time? Time doesn’t care if they’re tired or scared or unprepared, It’s not waiting. So yeah, buckle in. Or don’t. This is a wild, reckless, probably doomed ride through timelines, trials, and way too many truths. Every second counts. Even the ones they wish they could take back.

AFTER MARRIAGE Some love stories begin with a kiss. Theirs began with a contract. Sita is calm, reserved, and orderly — the kind of person who finds solace in silence. Vedehi is chaos wrapped in charm — loud, lively, and allergic to stillness. They have nothing in common… except heartbreak, family pressure, and a desperate need to escape. When both women land in England hoping to find love, all they find is disappointment — and each other. One impulsive proposal later, they're bound by a two-year contract marriage: no love, no drama, just a fake relationship to get their families off their backs. But fate has other plans. Sita is still searching for a woman from her past — someone who once held her heart. Vedehi, in helping her find that lost love, quietly falls for the very person she's supposed to be pretending with. Just when feelings start to blur and the contract begins to crumble, tragedy strikes. A sudden accident leaves Sita with no memory — not of the contract, not of the marriage, not even of Vedehi. Now Vedehi is left holding onto a love that only she remembers… And a wife who no longer knows her. Will Sita ever recall what they had? Will Vedehi’s love be enough to rebuild what fate tore apart? Or will their story remain a forgotten promise, lost between silence and memory? "After Marriage" is a breathtaking sapphic romance of opposites, survival, heartbreak, and healing. It’s about falling in love with someone who forgot you — and choosing them, even when they can't choose you back. Because sometimes, the most unforgettable love stories… Are the ones that begin after marriage. Dear Reader, “After Marriage” is more than just a love story — it’s a journey through silence, chaos, heartbreak, and healing. I promise you a story that will make you laugh when you least expect it and cry when you don’t want to. I promise you characters who are beautifully flawed, frustratingly human, and deeply real. I promise tension, misunderstandings, soft moments, and fierce ones — all stitched together with raw emotion and quiet hope. This isn’t a perfect romance. This is about two women who learn that love doesn’t always arrive the way we imagine — sometimes it comes late, sometimes through pain, and sometimes… disguised as a contract. But when it finally finds them, it stays. So, as you turn each page, I hope you feel every heartbeat, every fight, every smile, and every scar. And above all, I promise — by the end of this story, you’ll believe that real love… never truly forgets. With all my heart, — The Author

And power, once awakened, refuses to sleep. Let them fear the witch. Let them doubt the mortal. Together, they will burn the script — and write a new myth in starlight.

Synopsis: Heart of Phoenix In the vast and powerful Empire of Jiǔtiān, strength is more than tradition — it is law. Every royal is born into a world of power, ambition, and supernatural might, where martial mastery and awakened bloodlines determine one's place in destiny. At the center of this empire stands Prince Long Wei — born beneath a blood moon, blessed with godlike strength, and wielding powers others take decades to unlock. At just twelve years old, he is sent to the war front with an army of two hundred thousand, hailed as the empire’s chosen weapon. For twelve years, he fights demons, kingdoms, and darkness beyond the border, earning a name that shakes the heavens. But when peace returns and Long Wei is summoned home, he finds a far deadlier battlefield awaiting him — the imperial court. Here, four princes and one princess, born of two rival queens, walk the line between loyalty and ambition. The Emperor grows older. The throne whispers promises. And behind every silk curtain lies a blade. As ancient prophecies stir, long-hidden powers awaken, and betrayal takes root within the palace walls, Long Wei must navigate a war of politics, manipulation, and fate — one where enemies wear royal robes and blood is thicker than honor. The battle for the empire has only just begun. And in the heart of it all, one truth remains: Only the strongest will rise. Only the worthy will rule. And only the phoenix will survive the fire.
