I watched him as he stood there, leaning on the bridge's railing and eating ice cream. The breeze wasn't disturbing his hair today because he had parked it all backwards, he looked cute, I smiled drawing in some breath, satisfied with how today was going. "What?" I heard him ask taking me off my thoughts. "Huh?" "You were smiling." "Oh. I was...." "Can I kiss you?" He asked looking at my lips. "Here?" I asked now, my heart beating hard again my chest, our first kiss could happen now. "Yeah?" He nodded, I could see his Adam's apple go up and down as he swallowed, I bit my lips, nervously. I smiled approvingly, almost getting up from the bench where I sat. "No sit." He said coming closer to sit next to me. The bench was quiet small so we were so close to each other. He leaned in and I could smell him more the closer he got to my face. His lips were now inches away from mine and the moment they touched I closed my eyes, I didn't know why but I did.

Ice and Shadow: Aetheria's Immortal Legends

In a world where noble houses guard the kingdom of Aetheria from the relentless threats beyond its borders, Kael Ardyn, the youngest son of the powerful House Ardyn, finds himself reborn into a life far different from his previous one as a cold-blooded assassin. Emotionless, calculating, and bound by duty, Kael must navigate the deadly politics and rigorous challenges of Aetheria’s prestigious academy, where both noble and commoner children are trained to wield magic and steel. With a natural affinity for shadow magic, Kael quickly rises in the academy ranks, his every action driven by precision and survival instincts honed over lifetimes of living in the dark. But Kael’s path is not one he walks alone. His closest rival and most unexpected ally, Seraphina Valewyn, heir to the frost-wielding House Valewyn, mirrors his emotionless existence. Together, they form an unlikely yet powerful alliance, united by their shared detachment from the world and a growing, unspoken understanding of each other. As Kael and Seraphina train, fight, and master their powers within the academy, they encounter enemies and allies alike—each with their own ambitions and secrets. But beyond the academy walls, a looming threat to the kingdom stirs, one that will test the strength, loyalty, and unity of all who wish to protect Aetheria. In a place where every relationship is a game of power and every trial a life-or-death struggle, Kael must decide who he can trust and how far he will go to achieve his goals. With shadows as his weapon and an icy companion by his side, Kael’s journey through the academy will not only shape him into a master of magic and combat but also forge him into the ruler of the shadows, a force capable of changing the fate of Aetheria itself. Yet even in this world of ice and shadow, where power is everything, Kael begins to realize that survival alone may not be enough. For somewhere deep beneath the surface of his emotionless heart, something stirs—something dangerous, something that could either lead him to greatness or destroy everything he has built.

Fire & Ecstasy

In the land of Kebakaran, where whispers of dragons and bloodline legends echo through the cobbled streets, Amaris, a lowly slave girl, toils away at the Golden Peacock, a lavish brothel that serves the whims of the powerful. The once-beloved King Jezza has fallen, poisoned under mysterious circumstances, leaving his son, Quellin Vircadian, to ascend the throne amid swirling rumors of cruelty and darkness. While the townspeople grieve for their fallen king, they fear the new ruler, offering tributes—trinkets and girls—to appease Quellin's wrath. Amaris's life takes a perilous turn when she is chosen as a token of fealty, destined to become Quellin's property. As she navigates the treacherous world of the Royal Court and the simmering distrust of the townspeople, she finds herself in a desperate struggle for survival, love, and power. With each passing day, the stakes rise higher; Amaris learns that her very presence may be the key to maintaining the fragile peace between the court and the populace. Haunted by her past and driven by her dreams of freedom, Amaris must confront not only the dark secrets surrounding Quellin's ascent to the throne but also the terrifying legacy of the Vircadian family, said to be descended from dragons. As she unravels the truth behind the king's nature, Amaris finds herself drawn to Quellin, who reveals a side of himself that contradicts the chilling rumors. Their connection ignites a spark of hope within her, but it also complicates her mission to bridge the chasm between the crown and the commoners. As rebellion simmers beneath the surface, Amaris becomes a linchpin in a game of power that threatens to engulf them all. Can she reconcile her feelings for the enigmatic king with her need to protect her people? Will she be the one to rise above the chains of her past and forge a new destiny for herself and her kingdom, or will the darkness that surrounds Quellin consume them both? Fire & Ecstasy is a tale of passion, sacrifice, and the quest for identity in a world rife with betrayal and longing, where the line between love and power blurs, and the echoes of ancient dragons whisper promises of both destruction and rebirth.
