[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!!!

In this world, the real friends of a man are the monsters in his mind. But when you listen to these monsters, you are going to become a monster yourself. Is there any harm in becoming a monster? All men are monsters, or so believed an ancient vengeful spirit. Based on her past experience, all men were impure - impurities desperately hindering fertility - and that all women deserve to be in nowhere other than in her promising sanctuary. All women in the world deserved an eternal peace, who can deny that fact? The vengeful spirit found a solution of reproduction without the need of men, and so, there was no defying reason for the monsters to remain in the grand picture. Why not kill all the men in the world, straight to extinction? Why not clean up the impurities that no veil of justice could hide under the sense of defence? The world was meant to thrive under the sacred care of humanity, not to collapse under the careless cruelty of monsters that were destroying it in the name of leadership or power. In this world, it was not humanity that was at the brink of extinction. But only men were the ones at the brink of extinction, of all possibilities, in the hands of women. Was it morally wrong for Kord and his fellow so-called monsters to fight back?

Instead, she’s greeted by chaos—a crumbling kingdom, a mountain of unfinished business, and enemies lurking in every shadow. Worse yet, she’s surrounded by a group of dangerously obsessive men who’ve decided she’s their everything. Each man is tied to the chaos of her past actions, but all of them have directed their overwhelming passions toward her.

Always.” Freed during a slave auction she accidentally obliterated, he’s risen to lead the strongest assassin guild in the land. His devotion is as terrifying as his skills. And that’s not all.
