    In the realm of Greenwoods, lush rivers, towering pines, and shimmering lakes protect an ancient power bound to its prince-Nathaniel, a swordsman with emerald hair, blessed by the magic of the forests. Across the sands of the Kingdom of Yucca, where golden dunes stretch endlessly and succulents bloom beneath the blazing sun, dwells Princess Irish, healer of her people with the golden-brown hair of desert dawn. Two kingdoms divided for centuries-rivers and forests against deserts and mines-stand on the brink of war. A fragile treaty demands the marriage of Nathaniel and Irish, but the two young royals share nothing but mistrust and resentment. Nathaniel sees Irish as cold and ambitious, while Irish believes Nathaniel arrogant and untamed. Yet, destiny is not so easily denied. As they embark on a journey to unite their lands, the prince and princess discover unexpected kinship-her healing touch softening his guarded heart, his Greenwood magic shielding her fragile world. Together, they confront betrayal, ancient curses, and a prophecy that foretells that only love can end the rift between desert and forest. What begins as reluctant duty becomes a passion that neither kingdom can deny. And when peace is finally won, their love is blessed with the birth of twins-Liam and Gem, heirs of both forest and desert, destined to keep the balance their parents forged. "When rivers meet deserts, love blooms where no one believed it could."

    Five centuries after the war that split the continent, the Academy stands as the only place where children of both realms meet to master their gifts. When a power awakens in her-one that echoes the force once wielded by her grandmother-she is sent behind the Academy's walls, straight into the midst of strangers and enemies. But the Academy holds more than knowledge. In the shadow of its stone walls and the valleys of Zathar, a darkness is stirring-one that could consume them all.

    [COMPLETE] I was supposed to escape my fate. Instead, I walked straight into it. The Kingdom of Shadows remembers me-my blood, my soul, my sins. Somewhere in its endless night, he waits.

    In the hidden heart of the city stands The Veil Academy, a school that does not accept everyone. It chooses its own. Here, intellect and talent are only the surface. Beneath them lies the Veil Code, an ancient law whispered about, feared, and never fully understood. Every student hides a truth. Every truth hides a danger. They say, "Cross the Veil and pay the price, where truth is sweet but never nice." Weird, isn't it? No one knows where the lost ones go. When Lyraene Caelum begins to break the rules. Calm halls unravel into suspicion. Old secrets fight to stay buried. Where elegance hides its lies, the truth in turn silently dies.

    In sleep, the world does not break - it rearranges. Shadows develop rules, and the rules change the moment you hesitate. Every night, the dreamer wakes into a place that is familiar in shape yet stripped of every comfort. But not every dream is fear. Some nights open not into darkness, but into power. Here, the dreamer is someone else and also entirely themselves. Every world bends around the dreamer's presence. Every figure, monstrous or human, reacts to the choices they make. And what lurks in the dark and what whispers in the smoke may not be separate at all... only different languages spoken by the same restless subconscious. This series is not about good dreams or bad ones. It is about dreams that mean something - ones that place the dreamer in the center of pressure, identity, expectation, and instinct. Each entry is a fragment of the same unseen structure: a shifting universe that reflects the dreamer back at themselves, one flickering light and one closed door at a time. Author's Note: This is a record of my lucid dreams. Some of them have followed me since childhood - vivid enough, intense enough, strange enough that they stayed in my memory long after waking. Those dreams make up the main chapters of this collection, written in the order I first experienced them. They form a kind of story, not because they were meant to, but because my mind kept returning to the same rules, the same shadows, the same pressure that always seemed to be waiting for me. Other dreams didn't connect to that main thread at all, but they were too vivid, too sharp, too alive to be ignored. Those are the dreams that earned their own names - standalone stories that broke away from the main arc but still belong here, because they were unforgettable. Everything in this book is told exactly how it felt: first person, as I experienced it. If a dream was memorable enough to survive the morning, it's memorable enough to live on these pages.

    Between loyalty and love. Between the Academy and the border. Between light and shadow. After everything that happened in the capital, Priela wanted only peace. The magic within her is changing day by day - harder to control, increasingly unfamiliar. Shadows draw closer to the Academy walls, and the feeling that something is coming grows stronger with every hour. The love that was supposed to be her strength is turning into a risk. Every secret - a burden. And every choice - a step toward a place from which there is no return. Because when your heart beats between two kingdoms, you cannot save everything. This is the second book in the series. If you want to discover the beginning of Priela and Alerian's story - I invite you to read the first volume: https://www.wattpad.com/story/402184594-the-zathar-academy

    "What do we do now?" His eyes meet mine with sincerity and certainty. "We hope." "That's it?" I press. There must be more to the plan than that? "Hope," he says leaning in, "is a very dangerous thing to have." ✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨ When two sisters get sucked into a different dimension, in a world that's unlike anything they've ever seen, how will they survive? Darkness lurks around in the shadows of this world, the light of the world dimming. It clings to the weak minded, to the lonely, to the darkness in our own minds. And it will destroy you, if you let it. What starts off as a journey to find their way back home, becomes an epic quest to protect this world from the evil rising. Finding danger, fellowship, mystery and adventure on the way. Do these girls have what it takes to bring light back into the world? Or will the darkness get to them first? Maybe being sucked into this world was a fluke accident. Or maybe, maybe they were always meant to be here. Right now, for a time such as this. ✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨ Y/A Christian fantasy - adventure - romance Updates: weekly! (Or whenever I find the time)

    Dangerous. Evil. Alluring. These are some of the ways to describe a shadow and to some extent, it was true... or at least, that's how Issac Finkelstein viewed his shadows. For Issac was merely a man trying to move on from the tragedies he endured, but the shadows clung onto him - begging, pleading for him to break free from what he knew and embrace the darkness in him. While it was tempting to say yes, Issac refuses to give in and tries to ignore the alluring, almost magnetic pull that the shadows have on him. But Issac can't refuse forever. For a prophecy hangs over him and it speaks of the shadows and the darkness he is destined to bring into his world and that of another. It speaks of a monster that he is destined to become, a war that is to determine Avalon's fate and a fight that will either claim his life or that of his daughter for the two are one and the same; their fates intertwined as she was the light to his shadow. But tragically, a daughter's love cannot prevent what is to come for even the shadows are capable of eclipsing the light and in the presence of darkness... No one is safe. ~~~ Note: I do not own certain characters [characters that are not owned by me belong in relation to my sisters, @GeekyCookie1 and @Sci-Briana14] or characters from the TMNT 2012 universe, the Henry Danger show or anything that is referencing Sonic and/or Mario Kart.

    💙 Awkward Blue 💙 "He's running from legacy. She's fighting for respect. Both are hunted by shadows." Kael Lance was born into privilege, power, and pressure. His grandfather owns a tech empire, his cousins are bred like heirs in a dynasty, and every move he makes is controlled. But when Kael finally rebels, he's banished to Maynard High, a remote boarding school where survival isn't just about grades, rules, or rivalries. Paranormal activities stalk them night and day, and one wrong move could mean disappearing forever. Siobhan Wildes only wants one thing: for the girls' soccer team to finally earn the respect they deserve. But between asthma attacks, dorm drama, and a school administration that says "no" more than it says her name, she's forced to fight twice as hard for every victory. And when day breaks, she too has learned the truth about Maynard's curse. At a school where legends walk, shadows hunt, and secrets bleed into every game, Kael and Siobhan are about to learn that survival takes more than talent, it takes loyalty, courage, and the right people by your side. For fans of dark academia, boarding school drama, forbidden romance, and paranormal twists. Awkward Blue is where legacy meets danger, and every heartbeat could be the last. Updates every Tuesday 💗
