She couldn’t leave― there was nowhere else to go. Soleia desperately wanted her husband to return so he could offer her a helping hand. However, when he did, he returned with Elowyn, a woman he claimed was his true love. A woman hellbent on taking her place as the rightful Duchess, no matter what she had to do to get Soleia out of the way.

Unknown to Soleia, a man more powerful than her husband had been watching her, waiting for the right time to snatch her into his gilded cage. Duke Elsher had been foolish to let go― but the crown prince of Raxuvia wouldn’t make the same mistake. *** Prequel to Stolen by the Rebel King.

In the struggles of everyday life, Cage was a typical homebody. He loved reading, admiring beautiful pictures, and writing novels in his spare time. His greatest wish was to find a gentle, caring, and hardworking girl. However, fate seemed to have little mercy for him—not only did it fail to grant his modest wish, but it also struck him with a bolt of lightning that transported him to an unknown planet, where he became the prince of a modest kingdom. This sudden change in status also altered his ambitions. Freed from worries about food and shelter, he decided to embrace a life of indulgence and decadence, living as a hedonistic prince until his soul could return to Earth to atone to his parents. Yet, history rarely follows the desires of men. What once seemed like a far-fetched dream became attainable, while the simplest of wishes faded beyond reach. And so, the extraordinary tale of Cage, the legendary king, began.

Kings Covenant: The Ashes of the Golden Cage unfolds in a world where ancient magic and advanced technology coexist, shaping a fragile peace amid ruins of once-great empires. The last known continent, home to diverse kingdoms and mysterious ruins, is teeming with powerful magical creatures and relics of a forgotten age. New technologies—born of both arcane knowledge and scientific innovation—are being rapidly developed, yet remnants of the past linger, casting long shadows over the present. At the heart of this world are two kings, Caelan Althar and Dorian Valen, once childhood friends who now find themselves at odds. Their bond shattered over the discovery of an ancient artifact known as the Golden Cage, a relic tied to long-lost powers. The artifact holds the potential to change the world, but its true nature is veiled in mystery, and neither king fully understands the consequences of using it. Years earlier, Caelan and Dorian, along with their companions, formed a club at an elite academy where they explored ancient ruins and uncovered relics infused with magic. They encountered mythical creatures—elemental beings, monsters, and guardians that once roamed freely. But now, as rulers, Caelan hesitates to use the Golden Cage, knowing that its power could bring disaster. Dorian, in a desperate attempt to save his kingdom from ruin, betrays his former friend and takes the artifact for himself. Unbeknownst to both kings, powerful forces—both magical and technological—are at work, manipulating their actions toward a catastrophic end. As war seems inevitable, the ancient world’s secrets begin to unravel, threatening to release forces that neither man can control. Kings Covenant: The Ashes of the Golden Cage is a tale of betrayal, ambition, and the unbreakable bond between friendship and power. It explores the allure of ancient magic, the dangers of rediscovered technologies, and the creatures that still roam the world—an epic journey through a land on the brink of rediscovering its greatest mysteries.

Having spent her childhood confined in chains, Alice was a child who knew neither love nor joy. Scorned by her family while being tortured in the name of the greater good for years, she grew numb to all feeling and thought. That is, until one day, a man in black offered her a chance to escape. There were once rumours widespread of an endless hell, a land of glorious death and dreadful opportunity. Fools went in search of it, and the clever never ventured into it. Only when its baleful mysteries spilled unto the earth did all hear its name — the Abyss. A single drop of its blood could give someone the power to control shadows, move faster than sound, or strength greater than the strongest man. Yet, it all came at a cost; the blood would always make sure those who consumed it became part of the Abyss, with one exception — Alice. Cast away by her own blood, it was her destiny to rot in a gilded cage. But, that fateful day changed everything. Gifted a second chance at life, a chance to turn her life around and claim vengeance against her family, a chance to dive deep into the Abyss and gain the power to govern her own fate, Alice took his hand, unaware of the destiny unfolding before her.

Angel thought the world would be hers to explore when she turned twenty. She can finally be free from the gilded cage her overprotective father built for her. But she was mistaken! Her 20th birthday marked the day she lost everything, including the freedom she so desperately craved. It was the day she fell into the hands of her father's enemy, to atone for his sins. Leoric has meticulously planned his revenge for many years. When that day came, he thought he had everything under control. The man who killed his father was behind bars, and the empire he painstakingly built fell into his hands ... including his only daughter. He planned to force his new bride to entertain his friends on their wedding night. That should force her to a status lower than an escort, which should humiliate her and shame her father. That should usher her into hell. His perfect plan of revenge was ruined by a mysterious mishap. They found themselves stranded in a desert in an unfamiliar world after their yacht was sucked into a vortex. Later, they discovered that they were in a parallel universe ruled by dark forces. The only way to return is to offer a tribute to the country's supreme leader—a virgin bride! Where would they get a virgin? Wait, isn't Angel a virgin? As Leoric and his companions traveled across the treacherous landscapes of the enigmatic Astralis, he found himself falling for his wife, who seemed to have transformed after falling into the sea on their wedding night. On a starry night on top of the peak of Mount Anabu, Leoric gazed tenderly at his wife, who looked ethereal, radiated a mystical aura, and whispered... "To hell with the supreme leader and going back. You can only be mine! Let us rule Astralis!"

A princess's duty is to be beautiful, quiet, not loud, to be seen and not to be heard, which was how Dahlia lived most of her life. Bound by the expectations of her title, she spent years trying to prove to her father that she was more than just a princess and capable of being more than an ornament in his court but each time she never got the chance. Instead, she was forced into a marriage of convenience with the bravest knight in all the kingdom, Reagan Hawthorne. Dahlia thought she would use this marriage to escape the brutal crutches of her father and glide out of her cage but Reagan’s cold disdain was an unexpected prison of its own. While he waged wars on distant lands, she stayed behind, holding his household together and protecting the people he seemed to ignore. But Dahlia carried a dangerous secret. By day, she was the perfect wife. By night, she became the "Black Knight," a masked vigilante fighting for justice in the shadows. Reagan returned, ready to focus on his personal mission: avenging his father’s death. To him, Dahlia was just another pawn in his plans—a spoiled princess he needed to tolerate. But as cracks began to form in her perfect façade, Reagan couldn’t shake the feeling that there was more to his wife than met the eye. Now, with enemies circling closer and their secrets threatening to collide, Dahlia and Reagan must confront the lies they’ve told themselves and each other. But when masks fall and truths are revealed, will their fragile bond withstand the storm—or will it shatter beyond repair? One wound. One secret. One night that changes everything.

"With time you'll know, in the meantime, I have an offer for you." "I'm not interested bitch." I said and turned to leave. "I love the plan you came up with to rescue your father, honestly nothing could go wrong." Out of curiosity, I asked. "What are you talking about?" "The prison break, your father, or rather number one is going to die in two days and you're planning to rescue him today, or is it today or tomorrow?" I became extremely puzzled hearing this. "What the fuck?" I whispered. "Now I'm not going to speak about the offer here, but I'll listen if I were you, I could ruin your plan." She said.
