Half Of A Yellow Sun

THE HALF-BLOOD CROWN

Aeliana’s body tensed, every instinct urging her to flee, but her legs refused to obey. The weight of Kaelion’s presence pressed down on her chest, as if the air itself bowed to his will. She clenched her fists, willing herself to stay upright, to meet his gaze with whatever scraps of courage she could muster. She wouldn’t let him see her fear. “Step forward,” Kaelion ordered, his tone smooth but unyielding. Her jaw tightened. The part of her that was human screamed to fight, to run, but there was a faint hum beneath her skin—a whisper of something else. Something fae. It stirred like a forgotten memory, pulling her feet forward against her will. She stopped only a breath away from him, her chin tilted defiantly despite the trembling in her limbs. Up close, the king was even more overwhelming. His features were carved in sharp, perfect lines, his mismatched eyes glinting with an intelligence that saw too much. He wasn’t just cruel; he was calculating. A predator who enjoyed the chase as much as the kill. “What are you?” Kaelion asked, his voice soft but dangerous. He reached out, his claw-tipped fingers brushing the edge of her hood. She flinched, and his lips twitched—a hint of amusement at her reaction. “I’m no one,” she bit out, her voice steadier than she felt. “Just a thief.” “A thief?” he echoed, his fingers catching the edge of the hood. With a single motion, he pushed it back, exposing her face to the moonlight. The murmurs of the onlookers grew louder, their perfect features twisting with disdain. Kaelion’s eyes narrowed, his gaze raking over her. “No one, indeed.” He took a step closer, his presence enveloping her like a dark tide. “And yet… there’s something about you. Something familiar.” Aeliana’s heart pounded as his hand moved, fingers brushing the curve of her jaw. His touch was light, but it burned like fire, sending a shiver down her spine. “I should kill you for your insolence,” Kaelion said, his voice dropping to a dangerous whisper. “But there’s a… curiosity to you. A defiance I rarely see.” His lips curled into a smirk that didn’t reach his eyes. “I think I’ll keep you instead.” “Keep me?” Her voice cracked as anger flared, momentarily overriding her fear. “I’m not some pet to be claimed.” Kaelion’s smirk vanished, replaced by a cold, imperious glare. “You misunderstand, little thief. I’m not offering you a choice.” Aeliana’s stomach twisted as he raised his hand, his fingers glowing faintly with dark energy. Before she could react, a pulse of power shot through her, wrapping around her wrists like invisible chains. She stumbled, her knees buckling, but the magic held her upright. “You’ve entered my city, stolen from my people, and dared to defy me,” Kaelion said, his voice echoing with authority. “Your punishment will serve as a lesson to all who think they can do the same.” “And what punishment is that?” she spat, struggling against the bonds. Kaelion leaned in, his face inches from hers. “You’ll serve me,” he said, his voice a low, menacing growl. “Body and soul. Until I decide you’ve earned your freedom.” The crowd gasped, their whispers growing louder as the king straightened. Aeliana’s blood ran cold as she realized the full weight of his words. This wasn’t just about punishment—it was about control. And she was at the mercy of a man who had none. “Take her to the palace,” Kaelion commanded, his eyes never leaving hers. “I’ll decide what to do with her later.” The soldiers moved to obey, and Aeliana felt herself being pulled away, her body still bound by the king’s magic. As they dragged her through the streets, the crowd parted, their beautiful faces filled with a mix of fear and contempt. She clenched her fists, her mind racing. She couldn’t let this be the end. She wouldn’t let herself be another victim of Kaelion’s tyranny. Somewhere deep inside her, the faint hum of power stirred again, stronger this time.

Shadows of the Black Sun

Arlan Lok was just an ordinary village youth—until a savage cult bearing the emblem of a Black Sun razed his home, abducting his beloved younger sister. Left for dead and armed only with an ancient System-bound amulet, Arlan embarks on a desperate mission to rescue the last of his family from a demonic conspiracy that threatens the entire kingdom. Guided by newfound allies—like the resourceful mage Sera and veteran guild captain Vars—Arlan rises from obscurity to become a recognized champion. As each triumph grants him new levels and mystical abilities, he uncovers the cult’s terrifying plan: to unseal the Demon King Azrath, a being once banished from the mortal realm. Across shattered ruins, royal capitals, and hidden temples, Arlan must wage battle against scheming cultists and corrupted monsters alike. But with the fate of countless lives, and his sister’s, hanging in the balance, Arlan soon discovers that true power lies not just in wielding a sword, but in uniting hearts against the gathering shadows. Amid court intrigue, grueling tournaments, and epic clashes with monsters empowered by forbidden rituals, Arlan’s courage ignites hope in a kingdom on the brink of despair. If he can master his System’s gifts and forge alliances among knights, mages, and fellow adventurers, he may stand a chance to banish the Black Sun’s darkness once and for all—before Azrath’s unholy resurrection plunges the world into eternal night.

Eclipse Of The Fallen Sun

"Fate is a chain. Those who break it are either gods… or ghosts." In a world where magic dictates hierarchy and noble houses wield power like kings, Eidralis Academy stands at the heart of it all—an institution where prodigies are shaped, alliances are forged, and the weak are discarded. When Aedric Valtherion awakens in the body of a noble heir, he is neither a savior nor a chosen one. He is a relic of the past, a forgotten soul who once fought in a war that history itself erased. His memories whisper of battles never recorded, of a betrayal that shattered eternity, and of a name that no longer exists. But something is wrong. His magic does not follow the laws of this world. His past and present seem to overlap, distort, and rewrite themselves. And an ancient prophecy—one that should have been buried—begins to unravel. "You are not meant to exist." The Academy is a battlefield, not just for magic but for power, secrets, and survival. The noble houses rule through hypocrisy, manipulation, and veiled daggers, each vying for control over the world’s fate. But beneath their political games lies something far darker—an unseen force pulling the strings, shaping history to its will. As Aedric delves deeper into the mysteries surrounding his reincarnation, he is faced with a terrible truth: The gods are not watching. The world is built upon lies. And the cycle of fate is not unbreakable—it is merely waiting for someone reckless enough to tear it apart. But at what cost? Will he unravel the truth before it consumes him? Or will he become the very monster he once swore to destroy?
