This fresh perspective is born from my fascination with the intricate dance of light and shadow. As a newbie writer, this is my very first novel, and I hope you enjoy the journey as you dive into the shadows.

I nodded, feeling grateful, and bolted toward the door. Without knocking, I burst inside. "You jerk!" I yelled. “Don’t you know how to knock? and I warned you not to call me that.” His voice was low, irritated. "Your terms are absurds, I have my own terms also." I said as I closed the door. The minutes I turned to him, I screamed. Lorenzo was standing by the window, wearing nothing but a towel, water dripping from his freshly showered body. His broad shoulders glistened in the light, and his defined abs led down to... "A slave speaking of term, Hmm. Tell me about it." He said. "Damn, he is fucking hot!" I said, not realizing I said it out. "Excuse me?" He raised his brow. "huh." I said. "You were talking about terms." He asked, moving closer to me. I couldn’t remove my eyes away. His body was perfection, every inch of him sculpted like a living statue. The towel hung dangerously low on his hips, and for a moment, I forgot why I had come in. My heart pounded faster with every step he took, my legs were shaking. "Don't come near!" I yelled at him, covering my face with my hand. "What's the problem?" He asked. I froze, my eyes wide, my cheeks flushed. “Put some clothes on!” I shrieked. “This is my room,” he said, turning toward me with a slow smirk. “I see no reason to.” "Well.. I'm here and I'm not comfortable with you like this." “You’re staring,” he teased. “No, I’m not!” I shot back, flustered. “You want me,” he said casually, stepping closer. “What? No!” I stumbled backward, heart pounding. “You want to feel me inside you.” “God forbid! Hell no!” I shouted, but my voice wavered, betraying me. "Hell yes" He said with a smile. I swear, despite his face is partially covered with mask, I could see the beauty of his face. His smile is so beautiful... it's choking. He closed the distance between us, his eyes locked on mine. “Your body says otherwise,” he whispered, his hand brushing a strand of hair from my face. The heat of his skin sent a shiver down my spine. Then he whispered into my ears "I can show you what I'm made of, if you want." His voice was slow, deep and arousing. My legs were trembling, I could hear my heartbeat. “Stay away from me!” I pushed him back, panic setting in. But he only laughed, a deep, rich sound that sent my pulse racing. “You don't know what you are missing.” he murmured, his voice low and dangerously seductive. He leaned in, his breath hot against my ear. “Just say the word.” I snapped. “Get lost!” I pushed him and bolted out of the room, my heart pounding in my ears. I could hear him laughing behind me, enjoying the moment. His laughter was cut short by the sound of water splashing.

This modern world was once ruled by elemental forces and primal creatures, but the balance of power has long since shattered. Vampires, Werewolves, Demons, and Humans—each race has carved its own legacy, yet none remain untouched by the tides of war and betrayal. Once, these factions waged battles that scorched the land and stained history with blood. Now, the war has faded into myth, and a fragile peace clings to existence like a dying ember. But peace was never meant to last. A kingdom watches with unease as old wounds fester beneath the surface, as forbidden ties between predator and prey threaten to upend everything. Whispers of rebellion stir in the streets, ancient forces awaken in the shadows, and a forgotten prophecy looms on the horizon. Amidst this brewing storm, a child is born—a being who is the product of two worlds. A hybrid of Vampire and Human, he stands as a symbol of opposing forces intertwined. His existence alone is enough to ignite fury, to challenge the natural order, and to become the spark that could either unite the fractured lands or set them ablaze once more. Secrets buried deep in history will rise. Loyalties will be tested. And in the end, only one truth remains: Power is the only law, and those without it will be devoured. What happens when the past refuses to stay buried? When the sins of old return to claim their debt? This is not a fairy tale. This is the truth they wanted forgotten. Welcome to The Secrets of Chiaroscuro.

Opposite him stands Celia Everthorne, heir to the Church of Light, the ‘Saint’s Blade,’ burdened with a divine gift that reveals all truths — even those too painful to bear.

In the depths of Nightshade Kingdom, reality is fragile, and darkness is not the enemy—it is the truth. Between the cracks of the mind, a world lives, one where shadows breathe and death walks in the form of Mirelha, an angel of death with storm-touched eyes and wings heavy with souls. And then there’s Asher, a shadow demon bound to darkness, as much a curse as he is a mystery.

As the walls of the Labyrinth close in, you begin to question everything. If the Kingdom is a product of your fractured mind, then why does it hurt so much to let go? Why do you still hear Asher’s voice echoing through the dark, speaking vows that feel like promises of something far beyond the nightmare you cannot wake from? “I’ll always find you, my love.”

First of the Five-part series. For ages, the races of Nymira (aka Planet Terra) fought side by side against monsters, magical creatures, and demons. But after defeating the demons, they turned on each other, fighting over land and power. Then, everything changed. Forty years ago, the lost demon continent of Aynor resurfaced, bringing back an army of demon lords. At the same time, the twelve ancient dragons woke up, dungeons started appearing in cities, and terrifying creatures called Skarn began slaughtering entire towns. Now, humans must survive not just demons, but also rampaging dragons, endless waves of monsters, and the betrayal of their so-called allies. Meanwhile, far into the future in the fourth age, Redgar Noah, a prince of the Ceres Kingdom, just wanted to prove himself. He decided to do something legendary—slay a dragon. Instead, he got himself killed. But that was just the beginning. Noah wakes up in a new body—an immortal divine being having the same surname— but with no memories of the body he possessed. He finds himself in the legendary Third Age, an era he only read about in history books. Now, whether he likes it or not, he’s about to witness (or maybe even change) the biggest events in history. Luckily for him, he had the body of an undying immortal, powerful subordinates, and the Quantum AGI-Aria, which somehow crossed the spacetime continuum alongside him. Will he simply stay as a spectator to let things happen as it is or will he intervene in the events and change the history forever?
