Dance On The Blood Floor

A dance with the pentarch kings.

In a world where beasts rarely crave their own gender, Blazar's disguise as a boy is both her shield and her greatest gamble. Her scent betrays her—an intoxicating lure that would send any beast-blooded king into a frenzy to claim her. The disguise makes them hesitate, their instincts confused by the male facade over the irresistible female scent beneath. Every breath risks her discovery. Every moment is a gamble. Born a nobody. Sold into slavery. Bought by a king. Raised as a weapon. Her orders are simple: infiltrate Royal Imperium Prestigia High, pose as noble boy Orion Spade from a broken line, and assassinate the most powerful king. Succeed, and she lives. Fail, and she dies. Prestigia is an academy where monsters are crowned—and innocents devoured. Ruled by the Havoc Five: Dante the werewolf supreme alpha, Kaelric the apex of humanity, Vesper the vampire overlord, Xeari the werecat king, and Ryuzaki the celestial kitsune. Each lethal in their own way. Thousands of nobles would kill to kneel at their feet. For most girls, this is paradise. For Blazar? A nightmare. Her defiance doesn't go unnoticed. She attracts the attention of all five. The kings circle her—some to protect, some to break her, others wanting more. She runs. She tries to deny. But the longer she resists, the more entangled she becomes. To survive, she must outwit them all while hiding her true gender, her slave mark, the deadly secret of her bloodline, and escape the king who owns her. Blazar Staray won't play their games. And she certainly doesn't kneel. But the real question is—can she resist the hunger they woke in her? °~Excerpt~° "I don't understand," she whispered, her voice shaking. "I haven't done anything. I don't know what's happening." Kaelric stepped forward, his expression cold and calculating. "That's exactly what someone using seduction magic would say." His ice-blue eyes bore into hers with such intensity that she felt like he could see straight through to her soul. "The question is, what kind of magic are you using, and who sent you here?" "I'm not using any magic!" Blazar protested, her voice rising with desperation. "I don't even know what you're talking about!" But even as she said the words, she could feel the weight of their stares on her. Something was definitely wrong, and somehow, she was at the center of it all. The one thing they all seemed to want but couldn't quite understand why.

THE BLOOD KING'S BRIDE

The Blood King's Bride A desperate union born of ancient curses and shadowed thrones, The Blood King's Bride weaves a tale of fated love, insidious betrayal, and a queen’s fight for agency in a realm ruled by night. Seraphina, a spirited Elowen queen, finds herself a pawn in a brutal game, forcibly betrothed to Khael, the formidable and gravely cursed Blood King of Aethel. His heart, a relic of an ancient evil, is slowly turning to dust, and only an intimate bond with an Elowen queen is believed to stave off his demise. But in this kingdom of eternal night, duty is a cold master, and the path to salvation is shrouded in deceit. Khael, a monarch burdened by centuries of power and isolation, sees Seraphina as merely a means to an end, a reluctant sacrifice for his realm's survival. Yet, fate has a far more intricate design. When a mysterious venom threatens to consume Khael entirely, Seraphina’s unique Elowen blood proves to be the true, potent antidote—a truth far more complex than any whispered legend. This profound, unforeseen exchange of life ignites an unprecedented connection: Khael, the formidable vampire, gains the terrifying and intimate ability to hear Seraphina's every thought, from her innocent wonders to her most vulnerable fears and burgeoning, undeniable affection. This newfound intimacy accelerates their perilous bond, even as it rips open wounds of the past. The venom, it’s revealed, is no random curse, but a calculated act of treachery orchestrated by Lucien, Khael’s own banished brother, in a chilling alliance with the cunning sorceress Elara. Lucien, once the charismatic heart to Khael’s steady hand, now plots to reclaim his throne, fueled by bitter resentment and a twisted vision for Aethel. As Khael grapples with the physical echoes of his curse and the agonizing betrayal of a brotherhood shattered, Seraphina sheds her initial fear, transforming into a fiercely devoted queen. She finds solace in her chatty, perceptive handmaiden, Thalia, whose quiet concern about the full extent of Khael's lingering magical ailment subtly contrasts with Seraphina's hopeful belief in his complete recovery. Meanwhile, Khael’s stoic vampire general, Lyra, a pillar of unwavering loyalty, maintains a vigilant watch, his usual silence broken only by unwavering devotion to his king. Seeking a moment of solace and connection amidst the brewing storm, Khael guides Seraphina, Thalia, and Lyra to a hidden sanctuary—a breathtaking expanse of dandelions, tulips, and daisies nestled by a crystalline lake, overlooking the vast kingdom. Here, beside a weathered stone bearing the intertwined initials of ‘K’ and ‘L’, Khael peels back centuries of stoicism, revealing poignant memories of a cherished brotherhood with Lucien long before the dark descent. Amidst Khael’s raw vulnerability, the contrasting, grounded dynamic between the ever-chattering Thalia and the steadfast, laconic Lyra adds both humor and a nuanced layer to their evolving journey. The Blood King's Bride is an emotionally charged exploration of healing, hidden truths, and the enduring power of connection, set against the volatile backdrop of a kingdom teetering on the precipice of an ancient war and a love forged in the crucible of destiny.
