Girl In Cave Without Glasses

The Glass Kingdom's Thorn

In the shimmering, fractured realm of the Glass Kingdom, Lira, a young woman raised in obscurity, discovers she is the true heir to the throne—a secret kept hidden by her uncle, King Orin. Forced into an arranged marriage with Prince Kael of the Thornlands, Lira becomes a pawn in a dangerous game of power and politics. But when a mysterious stranger named Jarek offers her a chance to escape, Lira is drawn into a web of intrigue that reveals the kingdom’s darkest secrets. As Lira uncovers the truth about her lineage, she learns of the Eternal Flame—an ancient source of magic that once fueled the kingdom’s power. The flame, now dormant, seeks a new vessel, and Lira is its chosen heir. But the flame’s power comes at a cost, and those who seek to control it—including the enigmatic Seraphine, who claims to be Lira’s aunt—will stop at nothing to claim it for themselves. With Jarek by her side, Lira must navigate a treacherous path of betrayal, shadowy creatures, and her own growing connection to the flame. As she struggles to reclaim her throne and protect her people, Lira is forced to confront the ultimate question: will she embrace the flame’s power and risk losing herself, or will she forge her own destiny, even if it means defying the kingdom’s ancient legacy? *The Glass Kingdom’s Thorn* is a gripping tale of identity, power, and choice, where the line between hero and villain blurs, and the true cost of destiny is revealed.

A Woman Without a Mask

At 28, Clara Hayes has mastered the art of wearing masks. To her colleagues, she’s the perpetually cheerful graphic designer who never misses a deadline. To her overbearing mother, she’s the dutiful daughter hiding her anxiety behind polished smiles. To the world, she’s a woman who “has it all together”—except she’s crumbling inside. Clara’s life unravels during a corporate presentation where a panic attack strips her façade raw. Humiliated and exhausted, she flees to a quiet coastal town, renting a cottage owned by an eccentric, free-spirited potter named Marisol. There, Clara stumbles upon a dusty journal in the attic, its pages filled with haunting sketches and anonymous confessions from a woman who once lived there decades earlier. The entries mirror Clara’s own suffocating duality: “I paint myself in colors the world approves of, but my soul is a grayscale.” As Clara tentatively befriends Marisol and a reclusive widower, Eli, who runs the town’s crumbling bookstore, she begins confronting the lies she’s told herself for years. Through their unconventional guidance—and the journal’s cryptic wisdom—she starts shedding her masks one by one. But vulnerability comes at a cost: her corporate career teeters, her mother’s disapproval intensifies, and a buried trauma from her teenage years resurfaces, threatening to drown her newfound courage. When Clara’s raw, unfiltered artwork—created in secret—goes viral, she faces a choice: return to the safety of her old illusions or step into the terrifying freedom of living unapologetically. But the journal hides a final secret, linking Clara’s journey to the cottage’s mysterious past, forcing her to question whether true authenticity is a rebellion… or a homecoming.
