Mute King

In a world where magic is the cornerstone of power and society, Kael, a humble apprentice, struggles to find his place amidst the rigid hierarchies of noble families and their arcane schools. But when his small village falls under attack by rogue mages, Kael’s latent powers awaken in a spectacular—and dangerous—fashion. Marked by destiny and wielding an ancient relic, the Crown of Arcana, he is thrust into the heart of a prophecy foretelling the rise of the Arcane King. Hunted by inquisitors and feared by noble factions, Kael embarks on a harrowing journey of discovery, gathering allies as varied as a cunning thief with a secret past, a disgraced knight searching for redemption, and a mysterious mage with ties to the prophecy. Together, they uncover the shadowy force behind the instability in their world: the Veil, an ancient organization intent on enslaving magic itself. As Kael’s power grows, so does the weight of his responsibility. Leading a rebellion against a corrupt magical order, he must navigate betrayal, loss, and the Crown’s dark influence. With every battle fought and alliance forged, Kael inches closer to fulfilling his destiny—but at what cost? As the final confrontation looms, Kael must confront not only his enemies but also the darker truths about his powers, the prophecy, and the sacrifices required to forge a new era. Will he emerge as the savior the world needs, or will he be consumed by the very magic he seeks to master? The Arcane King is an epic tale of power, destiny, and sacrifice, weaving intricate magic systems, complex characters, and breathtaking battles into a saga that will leave readers spellbound.

My name is Shay. Just Shay. Every morning at five, I kick off my day like anyone else—cereal, eggs, or toast. Then comes the routine brushing session where I make it a point to avoid eye contact with the damn bogey in the mirror. Typical, right? I’ve got a roommate—a werewolf. We’re best friends and classmates, tackling school like it’s any normal day. After classes, I head to my job as a bartender at a nearby pub. It’s a cozy spot, where apart from your regular humans, other creatures also get together for a drink. Yep, vampires and shapeshifters have their pint nights too. Aside from these quirks, my life was relatively normal — until everything turned upside down. The peacefulness of the night seems to be over, the Fifth King is preparing for war — perhaps for world domination —, and common sense has evaporated somewhere along the way. Life was pretty standard, aside from the supernatural quirks, until it wasn’t. The peace of the night shattered, the Fifth King is gearing up for war—or maybe world domination—and somewhere along the way, logic took a vacation. Now, here I am, smack in the middle of this glorious mess, trying to figure out how I went from a normal guy to being tangled in what feels like the prelude to a world-ending saga.

Born from a celestial rock that fell to the center of the world, three men rise to shape a civilization destined for ruin. Kaelus, a cunning manipulator, bends truth to his will, seeking to rule through deception. Orus, blinded by faith, clings to a belief in unity, even as it crumbles around him. Dagon, a relentless enforcer, silences all who stand in his way, leaving fear and blood in his wake. Together, they build a mighty kingdom, their ambitions fueled by the mysterious Seraphyne, a woman whose presence binds them yet sows the seeds of their downfall. Betrayal fractures their unity, and each man claims a part of the kingdom, leading their followers into an age of conflict. As lies, blind faith, and brutality spiral into chaos, the land is consumed by war, betrayal, and despair. Towns burn, innocents perish, and hope becomes a fleeting shadow. With every move, the brothers tear apart what they once built, leaving only ashes in their pursuit of power. In this dark and tragic tale of ambition and loss, King of the Land explores the depths of human corruption, the weight of choices, and the devastating cost of dreams turned to ruin. For in the end, only the land remembers the folly of kings.

After the death of her grandmother, a mute artist returns home only to discover she’s been sold out by her uncle and aunt.

She convinces herself that, despite his behavior suggesting otherwise, he is better than her family. But everything changes when she uncovers his true nature and demands her freedom—only to be met with an unexpected ultimatum. --- "You must be wondering why I brought you under my roof and paid so much for you, knowing how much I despise wasting resources, right?” These are the same questions I’ve been asking myself, but why is he suddenly posing them to me now? Am I about to be set free? Or am I about to face a new prison, one with stricter walls? Come on, Carmela. You're a writer—don’t let your imagination run wild. In books, the female lead is usually hit with endless rules and restrictions when faced with these kinds of questions. Is that my fate, too? "First and foremost," he began, his voice smooth but laced with an edge, "I’ll admit I brought you here for selfish reasons. But I don’t want my motives to be an obstacle in your life." He stepped closer, his gray eyes locking onto mine like magnets pulling me into a dark abyss. "I’ll give you one hour. Run as far as you can, and I won’t chase after you." His words froze me in place, but my body betrayed me, refusing to step back as he approached. His hand slid around my waist, lifting my face to meet his smoldering gaze. "Stay," he murmured, his voice a melody that sent shivers through me, "and you will be mine. Forever. I don’t let go of what’s mine." As suddenly as he drew me in, he released me, leaving the room without a second glance. Yet the rush of emotions he stirred refused to settle. --- "I no longer wish to be your slave," I declared, my voice firm. "I’ll repay every cent my adoptive family owes you." Nix tilted his head, a smirk tugging at his lips. "You sure?" "Six months," I replied. "With interest. If I fail, I’d rather jump off a cliff than live as your property." His laughter, deep and intoxicating, echoed around us. "No, beloved," he purred, his tone both dangerous and alluring. "I won’t let you die so easily." He set a small box before me, his eyes dark and unreadable. "Accept my proposal. Be my wife for one year, and I’ll erase the debt. I’ll even give you a billion to rebuild your life." His offer hung in the air, heavy with promise and peril. Before I could respond, he vanished into the crowd, leaving me alone with the weight of his words. --- "Ahem... that man you were with—what’s your relationship with him?"* Damian’s voice broke the silence. I met his gaze, raising a brow. "Why do you care?" "Don’t get me wrong," he replied, his tone stern. "But he’s dangerous. You shouldn’t be involved with him."* "Really?" I leaned back, crossing one leg over the other, feigning indifference. "Yes, Carmela. Cut off all ties with him," Damian warned, his voice cold and unyielding. But will she walk away... sign the contract... or take the ultimate plunge? **Coming Soon.**

In the vast Nazare Blade Empire, ruled with an iron hand by Emperor Groa Aratat, there existed eight princes, each striving for recognition and power. Among them was Josh Aratat, the most obscure and least acknowledged of the emperor’s sons. Born of a mother who passed away when he was just a child, Josh grew up in the shadows of his more celebrated brothers, his heart burdened with loss and his life marked by solitude. One fateful day, Emperor Groa decreed a challenge: each of his sons was to venture into separate regions of the empire, conquer them, and win the loyalty of their people. The prince who demonstrated the greatest strength, strategy, and ability to amass supporters would be crowned the imperial prince—the heir to the throne. The empire buzzed with speculation. Most believed the title would go to the mighty firstborn, Balek Aratat, renowned for his unparalleled strength. Others placed their bets on the cunning second-born, Jaden Aratat, or the skilled third-born, Gerard Aratat. Few gave any thought to the younger sons, particularly the sixth to eighth—Josh included. In their eyes, he was merely a shadow, unworthy of mention in the race for the throne. But everything changed when Josh encountered a dying man, condemned to execution for the crime of stealing bread. Wracked with despair and tired of his own existence, Josh made a startling decision—he offered to take the man’s place, embracing what he thought would be his end. Yet, in an unexpected twist of fate, death did not claim him. Instead, Josh emerged from the ordeal with a newfound power—an extraordinary ability granted as a result of his selfless act. This gift would not only alter the course of his life but also shake the foundations of the Nazare Blade Empire and the world beyond.
