The Gambit’s Legacy: Killed by chess and Lived by chess

One day, after years of war, The United Kingdom and Russia suffered devastating losses. In an effort to end the bloodshed, they agreed on a final match—a chess game to decide the victor. London chose Caius Albright to represent them against Russia’s Ivan Dragovich, a renowned grandmaster. But tragedy struck. Caius, known as “The England King,” lost the match and was shot on the spot by Russian forces. His death shattered the Albright family, leaving them impoverished and scattered across London. Ten years later, Caius’ youngest son, Elias Albright, faced constant humiliation and defeat in chess battle. But after being ridiculed for one too many losses, Elias challenged his opponent for a rematch—and won. With the prize money, he managed to buy food for himself. From that day forward, he vowed to master chess and use it to free London from Russian rule. As Elias honed his skills, he met allies who would help him on his journey. Slowly but surely, he began to reunite with the remnants of his family, who had been scattered across London after their father’s death. Another decade passed, and the time finally came for Elias to face Russia in the ultimate match. Billed as “The Reborn England King” vs. Viktor Petrov, “The Russian King,” the stakes couldn’t have been higher. Once friends, Elias and Viktor now stood on opposite sides of the board, locked in a high-stakes deathmatch where the loser would be executed, and the winner would claim freedom for their nation.

Shadow's Gambit

In the grand city of Eldrath, where power is fought for in the shadows and alliances are as fleeting as the night, one man seeks to outplay them all. Aran Silas, a brilliant tactician and master manipulator, has no overwhelming strength or supernatural gifts. Instead, his genius lies in his ability to maneuver through the complex web of politics, crime, and treachery. Aran’s ambitions go far beyond wealth or fame—he wants control. Absolute control. As the illegitimate son of a noble family, Aran grew up on the fringes of high society, learning that intelligence and cunning were his only tools for survival. Now, as a man, he is determined to rise to power from behind the scenes, orchestrating the downfall of those who stand in his way. From crime lords to noble houses, no one is safe from his web of lies, half-truths, and carefully plotted schemes. But Eldrath is not just a city of ambition—it’s a battleground. Aran finds himself locked in a deadly game with two formidable women: Lady Nera, a powerful noble with her own dark empire, and Alara Sindel, a cunning seductress with ambitions that rival Aran’s own. With alliances shifting like sand and enemies lurking in every corner, Aran must stay several steps ahead, or risk losing everything. In a world where betrayal is as common as breathing and trust is a weakness, Aran plays the ultimate gambit—manipulating, deceiving, and outwitting everyone who crosses his path. But as his control grows, so do the dangers. His enemies are many, and even his allies may turn against him. And while he strives to shape the world in his image, there are forces at play far beyond his control. In Shadow’s Gambit, Aran Silas must balance ambition with survival as he navigates a treacherous world of mystery, intrigue, and deadly politics. His intelligence is his weapon, his mind his greatest asset, and in the dark, no one can see the strings he's pulling. But every gambit comes at a cost. Key Themes: Mind over muscle: Aran uses strategy and intelligence to defeat stronger foes. Anti-heroic journey: Aran’s morally ambiguous nature makes him both a mastermind and a manipulator, willing to sacrifice anyone for his goals. Political intrigue and power struggles: Noble houses, criminal syndicates, and rival factions all vie for control of Eldrath. Trust and betrayal: Friendships, alliances, and romances are all tainted by the looming threat of betrayal, making trust a rare and dangerous commodity. Aran Silas isn’t just playing the game—he’s rewriting the rules. But how long can he stay ahead before the shadows close in? # Disclaimer # This book is a work of fiction.

Royal Games: The Villainess’s Gambit

“Why did you run away from me?” Avery’s breath caught in her throat. That voice—it was familiar. She looked up, her heart pounding, her eyes narrowing as her mind pieced it together. With shaking hands, she reached up and pulled the mask from his face. Prince Adrian’s sharp features were illuminated in the soft glow of the moonlight. His expression was unreadable, but his intense gaze bore into her, searching for answers. Avery gasped, taking a step back. “Prince Adrian…” she stammered. “I—” “You ran,” he interrupted softly, his voice calm but filled with an undercurrent of emotion she hadn’t expected. “You rejected me and fled. Why?” Avery looked into his eyes, her mind racing. The prince, the very same character she had written to be cold, calculating, and utterly uninterested in Celeste, was now standing before her, asking why she had run away from him. Her thoughts were in chaos. None of this made sense. How could he feel this way about her? Celeste was never meant to be his choice. It was supposed to be Evelisse. *** After the successful debut of her bestselling book, Avery Clarke faced a tragic death that transmigrated her into one of the characters of her book. Was she the protagonist or the heroine of the novel? Hell, no. Avery was none other than the villainess, Lady Celeste Duvernay. However, there’s a twist. Prince Adrian, who was supposed to marry the love of his life, Evelisse while Celeste suffered them, broke off his engagement with Evelisse and announced his proposal to marry Celeste instead.  Avery didn’t want to accept that fate but she had no choice, the game of royalty was so strong to escape. With a new resolution, Avery made her own choice… she would marry prince Adrian but what was her goal… to make him hate her like he did in the book and reconcile with his betrothed love, Evelisse.

The Oracle's Gambit When the ancient city of Aedrion fell, Alexa Thorne became one of the hunted. Chased by the ruthless enforcers of the Dominion, she clings to a mysterious pendant—a relic her late mother entrusted to her with only one cryptic warning: “This is your light in the darkness.” But the pendant is more than a family heirloom. It hums with ancient power, pulls her toward forgotten places, and unlocks secrets long buried beneath the ruins of a broken world. When Alexa discovers the shattered remains of an oracle, she learns of a fate darker than she imagined—a looming threat known only as The Unmaker, a force that could unravel the fabric of reality itself. Bound by prophecy and pursued by enemies on all sides, Alexa is thrust into a deadly gambit of ancient powers, forbidden magic, and warring factions. Along the way, she must form uneasy alliances, including with a rogue guide who has his own hidden motives, and navigate a treacherous world of shadowy beasts, crumbling empires, and cryptic prophecies. The fate of countless lives depends on Alexa’s ability to uncover the truth behind the Weaver’s Blade, a legendary artifact said to control the threads of destiny. But every decision comes with a price, and the line between savior and destroyer grows ever thinner. In a world where trust is a gamble and failure means annihilation, Alexa must rise from hunted prey to a force capable of confronting destiny itself.
