The Flower And The Flame

Of Flames and Gold

[My WSA 2024 Entry novel! Please vote] In a world where mythical beings have fallen into an "eternal slumber," a thriving underground market exploits the stolen essence of these dormant creatures. At its epicenter are dragons—majestic beings desired for their scales, organs, and prized eggs. The most coveted treasure of all is a dragon's name, a key that holds the power to control its very existence. Dragon Lord, guardian of a clutch of dormant eggs, lives in isolation atop a hill, surrounded by a forest that veils his castle. He bears the scars of past betrayals, having been deceived by those who feigned love to steal his treasures or claim his head as a bounty. Jaded and cold, he trusts no one, living a solitary existence. However, his solitude is shattered when a woman unwittingly stumbles into his life. Yara finds herself in Dragon Lord's treasured den amidst a battle between the dragon and thieves. In a twist of fate, she mistakenly bonds with the dormant eggs, breathing life into them. Reluctantly, Dragon Lord allows Yara into his world, and their journey unfolds amid the looming threat of underground organizations seeking to exploit the dragons for profit. As the eggs come to life, so does an unexpected connection between Dragon Lord and Yara. Despite his cold and jaded exterior, he finds himself unable to ignore her presence. Yara, too, cannot deny the pull she feels towards him, and emotions begin to burn beneath the surface. Together, they must navigate the challenges of waiting for the eggs to hatch, fend off those who seek to exploit the dragon and its offspring, and confront the secrets that Yara harbors—a revelation that could destroy everything. In this tale of flames and gold, two scarred souls in a world where trust is a rare and precious commodity must confront the ghosts of their pasts. They navigate the dangerous currents of love and deception, protecting unborn dragons from a world hungry for their magic. Will their bond withstand the trials ahead, or will the flames of betrayal engulf them in the end? A/N: It starts out SLOW, because I tend to get lost in the pages and be descriptive but once it gets to the action, it really picks up! Looking forward to growing with you all on this journey!!!

"A Rebirth in Flames"

A Rebirth in Flame follows the journey of Eldric, a man who is reborn with the power to challenge the gods themselves. Once a pawn in their divine schemes, Eldric has suffered from betrayal and loss. But through a miraculous rebirth, he gains the strength and resolve to defy the very beings who once controlled his fate. Set in a world caught between the mortal realm and the divine, Eldric finds himself at the center of a rebellion—a desperate movement that seeks to overthrow the gods’ control over humanity. As he begins to rise as the leader of this rebellion, he must confront not only the brutal forces of the gods but also his own inner demons. The line between good and evil becomes blurred as he faces challenges that test his morals, his loyalty, and his very existence. The first major turning point comes when Eldric and his allies face off against the Arbiter, a godly champion sent to crush the rebellion. Through sheer will and determination, Eldric and his comrades manage to defeat the Arbiter, sending shockwaves throughout the divine hierarchy. However, this victory comes with a cost—the gods will not let their champions fall without retaliation. The battle is just beginning, and Eldric must rally his forces, face stronger opponents, and make difficult choices that could shape the future of both the mortal and divine realms. Throughout the story, Eldric’s struggle is not only against the gods but also against his own identity. Is he truly the hero of this tale, or is he simply another pawn in a greater game? Can he maintain his humanity while wielding such power? And, in the end, can he survive a war against immortals when everything is stacked against him? With thrilling battles, intense character development, and deep exploration of themes like destiny, free will, and sacrifice, A Rebirth in Flame is an epic tale of rebellion, redemption, and self-discovery.

Flesh than Flame

In a world ravaged by a catastrophic virus that has rendered animal meat toxic to consume, humanity teeters on the brink of survival. The infection drives the government to legalize cannibalism as the only viable source of sustenance, and the rich, safely protected behind their wealth, cling to a fleeting hope of veganism as a luxury. Meanwhile, the lower class is forced to scavenge for scraps, to hunt the fallen, and to survive at any cost. At the heart of this suffocating dystopia stands Jenny, a silent, broken girl born at the bottom of a crumbling society. When she was six, she witnessed the horrific death of her mother, torn apart by the very people who once called her friend. Abandoned in a world where the rich hide behind their walls and the poor are left to fight for survival, Jenny finds herself trapped in a nightmare with no way out. As the world around her becomes more brutal, Jenny clings to a blind, foolish hope, a hope that she can change something, anything. But the true horror of this world is that hope is fleeting and always betrayed. As the cycle of cannibalism, murder, and societal decay intensifies, Jenny’s soul is slowly crushed by the unbearable weight of a corrupt system that sees her as nothing more than fodder. Amid the horror of a world where human meat is bred in facilities and the deadly “17 Days of Scorch” a process turns victims into explosive, fiery corpses, Jenny must navigate a path where every step is soaked in blood. But no matter how much she struggles, no matter how much she fights to find a way out, she learns the most horrific truth of all: change is impossible in a world where survival is more important than humanity, and the flame of life can only burn so long before it consumes everything in its wake. A harrowing tale of pain, loss, and the darkest depths of human desperation. A chilling exploration of a world where evil wears the face of necessity, and survival is a never-ending cycle of terror.
