Winter's Promise

DravenShadefall
After the dust settles from Robert’s Rebellion, things aren’t looking so great for Eddard Stark. His friendship with Robert, now the King, isn’t what it used to be, and the brutal reality of war has left its mark on both of them. But the toughest part? A promise he made to his sister, Lyanna, on her deathbed, deep in a hidden tower that no one’s supposed to know about. At the Tower of Joy, Ned fights a desperate battle against the Kingsguard, trying to get to Lyanna. When he finally reaches her, he’s too late—she’s dying, but she’s got one last request. She hands him her newborn son, Jon. And here’s the kicker: Jon isn’t just any baby. He’s the secret child of Lyanna and Rhaegar Targaryen, with a claim that could turn the whole realm upside down. Ned’s got a choice to make. He could let honor guide him and tell the truth, but that would put Jon in serious danger. So, he decides to bend the rules a bit, building alliances and keeping Jon’s true identity hidden, even from his closest family. It’s a juggling act between doing what’s right and keeping his promise to Lyanna, but to Ned, protecting Jon comes first. If you’re ready for a story that dives deep into the struggles between family, loyalty, and the harsh reality of Westeros, Winter’s Promise is your kind of ride.

The Codex of Black Fire

The Codex of Black Fire In a secluded community in eastern Nigeria, a sinister darkness spreads—witches of ancient lineage have returned, their power growing with every soul they claim. Amid the whispers of cursed winds and burning shadows, Amarachi, a sacred vessel chosen by the gods, bears the burden of her people's survival. Bound by prophecy, she is the community's last hope—but her strength comes at the cost of love, freedom, and a future of her own. Enter Alaric Voss, a brilliant but emotionally scarred European scientist drawn to the village by reports of unexplained phenomena. Driven by both scientific curiosity and a need to escape his past, Alaric becomes entangled in forces far beyond logic. When he meets Amarachi, a mysterious, commanding woman with a fire in her eyes and secrets older than time, the boundary between science and the supernatural begins to blur. As ancient sigils burn and chemical weapons laced with magic are forged, Alaric and Amarachi must navigate a sensual spiritual bond that neither fully understands nor can resist. While he prepares for war guided by cryptic visions, she fights the pull of love, fearing it will unravel the sacred duty she was born to uphold. Together with Chima, Amarachi's once-promised protector and now loyal ally, they stand on the edge of a battle that could either purge the land of evil—or doom it forever. In The Codex of Black Fire, forbidden love, ancestral power, and scientific defiance collide in a tale where the heart and spirit must unite to overcome darkness.
