Dora The City Of Gold

[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!!!

Born with water in his lungs and stars in his palms, he carries a restless hunger that food cannot fill. What he truly craves is gold a symbol of power, wealth, and escape from a life tethered by poverty. By day, Iyi drifts through the dusty streets stained by Lagos grime. By night, he dives into the flickering glow of cyber cafes, hacking and scamming his way toward a dream that slips further away with every stolen dime. When danger closes in, he flees into the rain-soaked shadows, chased not just by men but by something ancient and unseen. An enigmatic herbalist offers Iyi a cryptic choice: to leave the world he knows behind and journey into a hidden realm where true wealth is weighed not by coins or diamonds, but by the soul’s price. With a bar of black soap pulsing like a heartbeat in his hands, Iyi steps into a world both familiar and surreal a silent market where riches vanish like smoke and where he is no longer one of them. The Weight of Gold is a gripping urban fantasy that explores the price of ambition, the pull of heritage, and the perilous quest for a treasure that could cost everything. Will Iyi find the gold he seeks or lose himself chasing it?

There is a beginning, and there is an end. In Arkarna—the city of sins—war isn’t just waged in the shadows of the elite. It bleeds through the alleys of the lower class, simmers in the silence of the middle class, and explodes in the hearts of those with nothing left to lose. The city is ruled by mafia syndicates, ruthless gangs, powerful cartels, and corrupt officials who worship only wealth and power. Yes, a war is coming. But it won’t be started by the criminals. Not by the gangsters, not the cartels, or the mafia kings. It begins with the ones still sitting behind school desks— the ones still holding textbooks instead of guns. Teenagers. Nobodies. The forgotten youth who will one day become legends. And remember… fists, swords, and bullets aren’t the only things that can kill.

In the rain-soaked alleys of an unnamed city, two strangers collide — not by fate, but by exhaustion. Aarav, a quiet writer running from the weight of his own memories, finds Anaya — broken, bruised, and unconscious at a train station bench. She doesn’t want to be found. He never meant to care. But something in her silence mirrors his own. As days pass and fragile trust begins to form, their quiet companionship becomes a refuge neither of them expected. But the past isn’t done with either of them. Anaya is being hunted — not by monsters, but by people she once called her own. Aarav holds a truth of his own — one that could shatter the fragile world they’ve just begun to build. Set in a world that feels too real to be fiction, The City of Shadows is not a story of grand miracles, but of small moments that save lives. It’s a deeply emotional journey through trauma, healing, and the kind of love that doesn't arrive with fireworks — but with quiet tea cups, shared balconies, and the promise to stay even when it hurts. Because sometimes, the most dangerous place isn't the world outside… but the memories we carry within.

They called her Red Sin. A mercenary. A myth. A woman with crimson eyes and a kill count that silenced entire rooms. Ravenna Noir was bred by the streets, broken by betrayal, and reborn in blood. She swore never to fall again — not for a man, not for love, not for mercy. Then came Jace Cross. Sharp smile. Cold eyes. The one man who slipped past her defenses — and stabbed her straight through the soul. In a city drowning in corruption, ruled by ghosts in tailored suits and gods with dirty hands, Ravenna wants nothing but vengeance. But secrets run deeper than bullets, and the man who broke her may be the only one who can save her from the monster she’s becoming. Love never stood a chance here. Not in Deadman’s City. But death? Death was always waiting.

But when this adoptive father dies under violent circumstances, Auréel is cast into a world that rejects him before it even knows him. For he carries a name everyone despises: Gold. Rejected. Branded. Followed by a lion and haunted by a promise, Aureel enters the Imperial Academy to survive - or disappear. But the ghosts of the past lurk, and some truths are still waiting to strike. He's not looking to be a hero. He just wants to live. But sometimes, light doesn't choose. It condemns.
