Roots of Fire

Tony_0000
In a world where power blooms from magic, bloodlines, and myth, Elira Gray has none. Just a human girl with tattered shoes, a tragic past, and a heart that refuses to break. Alone since the curse storm stole her family, Elira survives by running, from monsters, from memories, from the truth buried deep inside her. But when she stumbles upon a forgotten library guarded by a strange feathered beast, everything changes. Inside its walls, a mysterious book bears her name, and it starts to write itself. Elira’s journey is no prophecy. She is not chosen by fate. Yet people follow her, creatures of claw and wing, fire and storm. Not because she is powerful, but because she makes them believe again. In kindness. In courage. In each other. But shadows grow hungrier, and secrets whisper of a power lost to time, one that could shatter everything. Elira is about to learn: sometimes the greatest power isn’t magic, but the way hearts move when they move together.

Substitute Wife For The Blind CEO

On the day of her wedding, Ivy Quinn vanishes, leaving behind only a note: "I’m sorry, I can't marry a blind man." To protect her son from heartbreak, Elizabeth Winters strikes a desperate deal—Ruby, Ivy’s identical twin, must take her sister’s place at the altar. Trapped by duty and family pressure, Ruby agrees, believing it will only last until Stefan’s eyesight is restored. But from the moment they marry, Stefan senses something is different about his "wife." The woman beside him is nothing like the shallow fiancée he once knew. She’s sharp, resilient, and understands his business in a way Ivy never did. Against all odds, he falls harder than ever for this new version of her. And Ruby? She never expected to fall in love with a man who was never meant to be hers. But just when she finds the courage to tell him the truth, Ivy returns, ready to reclaim the life she abandoned. When Stefan finally opens his eyes, will he see the woman who truly stood by him—or will he be too blind to recognize real love? ****Excerpt**** “By the way, did Ruby come to the wedding?” he asked, catching her off guard since she hadn't expected him to ask her that all of a sudden. Was he already suspecting that it was her and not Ivy? Ruby’s fingers froze on the door handle for just a fraction of a second. It was enough to set off alarms in Stefan's head. “I—uh…” She hesitated, but only briefly. “No. She had work. She couldn’t make it.” Was he suspecting a switch already? What must have set off the alarm in his head? Stefan hummed, tilting his head slightly. “Oh, I see. How is she, then? I hope she's coming to visit one of these days?” Her fingers tightened on the handle, though her voice remained steady. “Yeah. She would, the moment she is chanced and can come.” A slow smirk tugged at the corner of Stefan’s lips, though he kept his expression neutral. Interesting. Very interesting. His wife had just lied to him and he didn't know why. Even though he was blind, he'd find out why soon enough.
