Heir to the Immortal Bond

CrimsonWriterK
In the empire of Astoria, power is everything. Princess Anna, youngest daughter of Emperor Valerius, has spent her life in the shadow of her extraordinary sisters—Talia, who commands the skies with storms and lightning, and Elara, whose fiery magic can melt stone and bend wyverns to her will. They are celebrated as the empire’s future, while Anna is whispered about as its greatest disappointment. She has no visible magic, no place in her father’s schemes, and no hope of ever escaping the shame of her birth—or so she believes. But far beneath the empire’s glittering palaces and warring courts, something ancient stirs. Chaos—the Dark God of the Abyss, Ruler of Silence—has begun to awaken. Once, the gods sang the world into being, their voices weaving the Great Song that sustains all life and magic. Now Chaos seeks to unravel that song, plunging the world into perfect stillness and eternal silence. When a single, desperate act reveals a strange and terrible power within Anna, she discovers she is connected to the resonance of the world’s song, the very magic Chaos wishes to destroy. Her gift may be the key to defending creation itself—or the final note that ends it forever. As war brews and ancient forces rise, Anna is thrust into a deadly struggle where kingdoms will fall, blood will be spilled, and even gods may die. To save her people—and herself—she must embrace the truth she has always feared: she is more than a forgotten princess. She may be the heir to a hidden legacy, the last hope against a god determined to bring silence to all that lives. Heir of the Immortal Bond is a sweeping tale of magic, destiny, and the battle between the music of life and the silence of the abyss.

The Duke's Unwanted Second Wife

**Mature Content** Eilika Wolanski is the eldest daughter of one of Varos’ most respected merchants, but respect has never brought her kindness. A childhood accident left a scar across her cheek, and with it, a cruel label she can never escape. The “Unwanted Woman” of Varos. Mocked in public, pitied in private, and treated like a blemish to be hidden, Eilika grows up learning one painful truth, beauty matters more than character in high society. So when an unexpected marriage proposal arrives from the powerful House of Kingsley, no one believes it is real. The groom is Damian Van Kingsley, the widowed duke of Varos, feared for his cold temperament and admired for his unmatched looks and wealth. Rumors follow him like shadows. He has a secret mistress, a broken heart drowned in alcohol, and worst of all… A son he barely acknowledges. For Eilika, marrying Damian isn’t a dream. It’s the only option left for survival. Damian, once the kingdom’s most desirable nobleman, has been nothing but a hollow man since the death of his first wife. He has abandoned his responsibilities, pushed away his child, and lived with one vow burning in his chest. He will never replace his first wife. To force him back into duty, his mother arranges a second marriage, one he never asked for, and one he refuses to accept. Damian swears he will never touch her , will never look at her and will never treat her as his wife. But Eilika isn’t the greedy noblewoman he expected. She doesn’t ask for his affection. She doesn’t crave his title. She doesn’t even want his love. What Eilika wants… is something far more dangerous. A family. And perhaps that is the very thing Damian has been starving for all along. ~~~~ “This bed will remain cold until your last breath.” Damian’s voice boomed through the dark chamber. Eilika didn’t flinch at his words. Instead she replied gracefully, “I don’t seek love, Duke. You can visit your secret mistress every night… Just don’t come near me.” This marriage was never meant to become real, until the Duke's heart begins to betray its own rules.

The Architect of Anarchy

The ancient gods battled the eternal Void for decades, until they sacrificed themselves to weave a grand enchantment using the strings of existence. Before its imprisonment, the Void left behind an insidious whisper, a curse consuming all the realms, until only the Sacred Sanctuary remained.. Chaos Creatures were unleashed to wreck havoc upon the five sacred realms, and with them came the Noise. Every human born after the Age of the Gods becomes susceptible to the Eplialtic Weave–the cursed version of the Rune of Imprisonment rooted deep in the consciousness of every human being. Equipped with the vile system, heroes must arise to defend to few remaining humans against Chaos Creatures, the Noise and Corruption. ———— On his 16th birthday, Luke survives his Nightmare and becomes a Commonality – Tier 5 awakened warriors armed with miraculous abilities. Because he is a poor rat with a severely malnourished consciousness, he had never expected to survive the Nightmare and activate the Eplialtic Weave system inside him. He learns of the profane nature of his powers, and navigates the cosmos in search of the Truth. The Rune of Imprisonment is collapsing. It would only be a matter of time before the Void breaks free and wrecks havoc in the entire cosmos. The massive responsibility now falls on Luke's shoulders - he must make sure that the Void remains sealed forever, but he fails to account for one fatal flaw... ———— Discord://discord.gg/t8X7Gkd2
