A Legacy Of Flames

Legacy of a Benevolent Lord

My name is Riveron. This is my story. Concubine-born, scorned by my own blood, probably forgotten by name. In my last life, I clawed through a slum. In this one, I claw through a noble cage. Two different lives. Same goddamn suffering. I was born into a MARTIAL WORLD, where emperors rule with iron fists, where blades split mountains, and the words of the weak meant nothing. But none of that mattered to me. I only wanted one thing: ESCAPE. Escape this house. And so I chose the quickest path: Imperial Scholar. Rise through merit. LEARN, climb, climb, and climb. It was a good plan. It should have worked. But I was blind to a much bigger plan brewing behind the curtains. The day I left home, I thought I’d reach the capital. Finally, to walk the path of the sages. Instead, I was AMBUSHED. THEY BROKE ME. Limbs shattered. Hope erased. Pride reduced to screams. I survived only by leaping into the sinkhole beneath the lake. And somehow… I SURVIVED. An angel saved me. But that wasn’t the only miracle. I awakened a system. For every gift I give, I can trigger a critical return. Is this my second chance? My shot at carving a throne into this world? Fate's gift, maybe? But Fate will regret it. I’ve killed before. I’ll kill again. I’ve conquered once. I’ll conquer more. Back on Earth, I rose from the dirt. But here, in this lawless world? There are no rules to bind me. No laws. No morals. No social media cancel culture. Only power. And power… that answers to me. I will rise. I will reign. I will live unbending once more. How different can this world be? ---------------------------------------------- System | Harem | Action | Adventure | World Building | Cultivation | System | Martial Arts | No Yuri | No NTR Warning: Coarse use of language/ Detailed Blood and Gore ---------------------------------------------- The cover picture is mine.

Of Flames and 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!!!

Legacy of the Night Kins

Under the blood-red moon, ancient pacts fracture and long-buried secrets awaken. For centuries, vampires and werewolves—the Nightkins—have maintained a fragile truce, bound by a single, terrible promise: to keep the ancient Vault sealed at any cost. But that promise is broken when David Ramirez, a haunted hunter marked by a family curse, stumbles upon the Vault’s location. Driven by vengeance for his sister’s murder at the claws of a rogue Nightkin, David is determined to uncover the truth behind the supernatural war that has raged in the shadows for generations. Alongside Priya Shah, a scholar of forbidden runes whose family has guarded the Vault for centuries, David is pulled into a deadly game between monsters older than empires. Vampires seek to harness the Vault’s secrets to break their own ancient limitations. Werewolves fight to destroy it before it can unearth a power that could enslave them all. As alliances shatter and old rivalries reignite, something stirs beneath the earth—something hungry, cunning, and older than both vampire and werewolf kind. The Vault was not merely a prison, but a door. And now it has begun to open. Hunted by both factions, David and Priya must navigate a world of blood oaths, ancient magic, and predatory politics. Betrayal lurks in every shadow, and the difference between friend and foe is written in blood. But there is one truth neither side will admit: *the Nightkins were not the first monsters, only the next.* And the true legacy waiting to be claimed may doom them all. ---

In The Flames Of The Fallen

{Warning: Contains Mature Content} “Those who venture into the flames shall be consumed by its tongue—And they shall be called the Fallen.” One bloody night, Ember AshFall loses everything she never truly had. Born without magic, rejected by her coven and forsaken by her own family, she was always the outcast. But on that night of monstrosity, they were all plunged into the flames to burn to their deaths. And Ember did burn with them... until he pulled her from the fire. Khaos BlueBlood. Immortal. Cold-blooded Original Vampire. Battle-scarred god. He was nothing like the men from her cold, distant world. And when she rises from the ashes like a phoenix, he offers her a choice: stay a powerless witch… or risk everything and become something more. It was never truly a choice. In a deadly twist of fate, Ember assumes the identity of a dead princess—her doppelganger and heiress to the most powerful Human Clan. Thrust into a court of silk and knives, she becomes a pawn of the Queen Consort—a grieving mother who lost her real daughter, and now uses Ember in her place to enact cold-blooded vengeance. Yet amid the games of politics and power, Ember begins to feel something she's never known: twisted, complicated love. And from none other than the very mother who uses her… and perhaps, cherishes her too. Determined to protect her new life, Ember becomes the perfect daughter, the flawless princess. She learns to smile while wielding secrets, flawlessly playing the game of hearts and thrones among a royal family that wouldn’t hesitate to spill blood for power. Then he returns. Eight years later, Khaos BlueBlood is back to collect the price for saving her. A price so steep it unearths ancient truths and threatens everything she’s built. But what begins as a debt owed soon burns into something neither of them can afford—an attraction forged in fire, forbidden by duty, and dangerous enough to ruin them both. Torn between the queen who forged her and the vampire who saved her, Ember must navigate a world of fire and betrayal—where loyalty is born through pain, and love is just another form of control. Especially when the witch powers she never had begin to awaken—and they all lead back to him. One wears a stolen crown. One sharpens a stolen daughter. One hides a dagger behind every smile. And in a world where fire feeds the fallen, only the cruel will survive.
