What if salvation came from the devil himself? A kill or be killed salvation! It was a simple task, but it ended up turning into a disaster. Evangeline Lancaster had only one job given to her by the richest housewife in the whole of California: “Seduce my husband and drop the pills in his drink. I would give you two million dollars.” Money that could help her further her college education–how could she refuse? She thought it was a seduction without sex, never even expecting the billionaire she was sent to would look her way. But the moment she walked into the club and sat on the lap of a man who looked like a human god, her world swayed. The morals she held as a lady went down the drain, and she ended up doing what she hadn't planned for. Job more than well done, she took her money and left the country. Eight years later, her job as a nurse had brought her back to California, but this time she wasn't alone. She was back with beautiful twin children whose only prior motive was to buy a rich daddy for mummy. Evangeline tried to find every reason to forget what she had done eight years ago, but her life became a tug of war when Lucas Wade, the man she had a one night stand with, collided with her again in the hospital. Now a blind man, he had surprisingly recognized her scent and accused her of being the cause of his blindness, insisting she must take responsibility. "I wasn't aware of the things the pills could do, Mr. Wade." "Since you caused this you would repay me, for the next six months you are mine Ms. Lancaster."

A brilliant medical prodigy and world-renowned scientist wakes up in a body that isn’t his own, in a world far stranger than he ever imagined. Stripped of his identity and thrust into chaos, he’s immediately framed for a brutal murder he didn’t commit. With no way to prove his innocence, he faces a grim reality: He can’t speak the language. The people are vicious, lawless, and alien in every way. There is no sky—only endless darkness above. And to his disbelief… magic exists.

In some worlds, magic is a mere fantasy—where humans live without powers. In others, like mine, magic is an undeniable reality. But in my world, there's a twist: only males are supposed to have magic. That is, until I was born. In the kingdom of Dalatine, each newborn's eyes reveal their magical ability and their allegiance to a church—grey for wind, blue for water, hazel for earth, red for fire, yellow for light, and black for dark. But my eyes are golden, a colour no one has ever seen before. And with that, my fate was sealed. Feared of my very existence and hated for my gender, I was locked away in my family's mansion for fifteen years, a prisoner within an unbreakable barrier. The barrier not only kept me from the world—it suppressed my magic and cloaked my true appearance from those who cared for me. Until one fateful day, a stranger with fiery red eyes saw through the illusion. “You really do have beautiful eyes,” he said, shattering the silence of my life. That moment set me free—free from the mansion, free from the illusion. For the first time, I could step into the world I’d dreamed of: the Magic Academy. But reality is far more dangerous than dreams. With enemies lurking in the shadows and my very existence a threat to the kingdom, I must uncover the truth about my power—and about who I truly am—before it's too late. The question is, can I survive long enough to unravel the tangled web of secrets, lies, and deadly conspiracies?

"From the grave rise two men without eyes, Holding a heart in their hands. And I weep over my brother, Is this my blood, or his?" In a land once ablaze with the flames of glory, a bloody uprising turned everything to ashes, giving rise to a fanatic regime founded upon the religion of Firinic. Yet amidst the ruins, one soul has sworn to one day return to this forsaken land and reclaim their stolen rights with blood, rising from the fire and ashes. This is a Requiem for Fire-a Fire in which courage, vengeance, and hope burn to bend destiny before the will of justice. It is the chronicle of a hundred years of torment, a century that serves as a poignant reminder of a forgotten truth: "Justice lives in the heart of those who resist."
