da234900828
In a kingdom where fate is determined by the stars, Princess Elira has always been bound to a prophecy she cannot escape. Marked by the celestial alignment at her birth, she is destined to marry the ruthless Crown Prince of Vandir and unite their warring realms. But when a chance encounter with a mysterious traveler named Kaelen awakens her heart in ways she never thought possible, Elira is faced with an impossible choice: fulfill her duty or follow her soul’s desire. Kaelen is no ordinary wanderer. Hidden behind his mischievous grin and piercing amber eyes lies a secret that could shatter kingdoms. Born of forbidden magic, he is a Starforged—an immortal created to serve the gods but cursed to live in shadows. Drawn to Elira by an inexplicable connection, Kaelen knows their bond could destroy the fragile peace between their lands. Yet every stolen glance, every whispered word, deepens the bond neither can deny. As Elira’s wedding day draws near, political alliances unravel, and long-buried secrets rise. The stars themselves seem to conspire against the lovers, their paths fraught with betrayal, ancient curses, and the wrath of the gods. To defy her destiny, Elira must uncover the truth behind the prophecy that chains her and harness the forbidden power locked within her soul. But love comes at a cost, and one kiss could rewrite the fate of not only Elira and Kaelen but the entire realm. Fate’s Forbidden Kiss is a sweeping tale of star-crossed lovers, treacherous magic, and the unyielding strength of the heart. Will love triumph over destiny, or will the stars tear them apart forever?

Book 1 of Rebirth of the Technomage Saga: Earth’s Awakening

Stolen at birth and crushed beneath her step-family's cruelty, Raven awakens on her seventeenth birthday to memories spanning ninety-nine lifetimes—and this time, she plans to change everything. Once called Mara Brenner, a forgotten girl hidden in a servant's robes, she now remembers every betrayal, every death, every moment of suffering across nearly a century of lives. In each existence, she endured enslavement, loss, and the tragic death of her child. But death was never her ending—it was her education. Blessed with a rare tri-bloodline combining Dragon strength, Lín healing, and Zhào wisdom, Raven carries within her soul-space ten mystical Blood Essence Beads. Each bead holds the power to awaken a fragment of her divine body, rebuilding her from bone to spirit while granting mastery over lost technomagic arts: alchemy, artifact forging, runes, and the fusion of magic with cutting-edge science. Yet each awakening will test her mind, heart, and will to their very limits. Around her looms an empire ruled by the ruthless Eight Great Families, where noble bloodlines battle for supremacy in a brutal 100-Year Tournament. Hidden beneath them lurk the secret cultivation clans—ancient powers manipulating bloodlines and history itself. Her stepsister, Amara, pampered and poisonous, conspires to steal both her name and destiny, guided by a devourer seed that whispers corruption into willing ears. What Raven doesn't yet know will shake the foundations of reality: she is a Pillar Soul—one of the fundamental anchors holding Ascara's existence together. If she falls to darkness, the entire plane collapses into the void. To protect her world, she must locate and awaken the other Pillar Souls scattered across the world: a dying child, a broken soldier, a fallen saint, a betrayed lover, and others—each a fragment of Ascara's strength, each teetering on the edge of corruption. Time is running short. The Great Shift approaches in five years—when spiritual energy will surge back into a world that has forgotten magic. As technology begins to fail and ancient powers stir, Raven must navigate step-family betrayal, aristocratic oppression, and imperial conspiracies while a darker truth emerges: the Devourers, cosmic parasites born from primordial hunger, seek to twist her suffering into corruption and drag Ascara into eternal darkness. Standing between her and salvation are false allies and tragic enemies like Kael Xuán—heir to the ruling family and her betrayer across multiple lifetimes—while the shadowy SIS organization sacrifices innocents in the name of maintaining "order." Only one figure recognizes her true nature: the exiled Keeper of the Accord, an immortal guardian bound by cosmic law to protect Ascara's souls. In him, Raven may find not only a reluctant ally but an echo of her grandparents' forbidden love—proof that loyalty and sacrifice can triumph against the tide of ambition and despair. In a fractured empire where ancient cultivation lies broken, magic is dismissed as myth, and technology serves as the ultimate weapon, one forgotten girl will rise to reshape the fate of worlds. But first, she must survive becoming the most dangerous thing in existence: herself. ◊ ◊ ◊ Not suitable for readers under 18 or those sensitive to intense emotional/violent content.
