Tamie Wingfield dreams to become the greatest Zodiac Master of all time. For that, she decides to join the Rose Cruce Order, which her elder brother Nick Wingfield belongs to, as one of the highest ranks - the Sage.

Caden is an ordinary young man—or so it seems. For weeks, his nights have been haunted by enigmatic dreams in which a mysterious woman warns him of an imminent danger. When his life takes a sudden turn, he discovers that he possesses an elemental power, an ancient energy symbolized by a zodiac mark on his body. Yet one detail haunts him: he knows he wasn’t born with this mark, and his past before the age of nine is a complete blank. In his search for answers, Caden encounters others who bear similar marks, each tied to an elemental power and representing a zodiac sign. These chosen ones, known as the Zodiac Mages, are guardians of a fragile balance, but their unity shattered years ago. Now, their powers have become the target of those willing to go to any lengths to claim them. To counter this growing threat, Caden sets out to rebuild the Brotherhood of Zodiac Mages. Together, they must overcome their differences, restore the harmony of old, and face an enemy whose strength is beyond imagination. But every alliance comes with its own risks: caught between friendship and betrayal, Caden must discern allies from foes and uncover the truth about his own origins.

★»BLURB»★ Heavy panting could be heard as a girl ran through the wood barefooted. Prickles pierced into her legs and blood began oozing out of the wound but that didn't stop her from running. No matter what, she must get away from him. Not even him. It!!! She looked back and saw him coming. He was walking slowly and his eyes shone a bright shade of red. He had a smirk on his face and she gasped looking forward. She increased her pace running insanely. She saw a hunter and she ran to him immediately. She asked for help and he turned to the creature. He raised his axe and began running towards him. The man smirked raising his hand. He snapped his fingers and the man's head fell off followed by his arms and legs. Blood came out from all those parts of his body and Ariel screamed. She began her run and she sighted a cave. She diverted to another route running into the cave. She put the rocks she found on the ground to cover the entrance of the cave. She breathe out and then she froze. She felt a cold aura behind her and she turned slowly. She screamed loudly when she saw him and she fell on her butt. Shock was written all over her face as she wondered. How did he get in? "You think you can hide little girl?" His cold voice said and she peed in her pants immediately. ★»★»★ Ariel Chen, a college student, has experienced tragedy in her past.

[Mature Content] ||| It wasn't supposed to happen. But it happened so naturally none of them could have even realized they were falling, they just did. All because of an email with a typo when they were young, which made them become pen pals in secret. Maybe it was the magic of never meeting in person, maybe it was the charm of the unknown, but they fell, and they fell hard through the years. But were they really strangers in real life as they believed while keeping their identities a secret? ||| It's a fast paced age gap romance, there will be smut, the initial stage of the story is focused on them being pen pals, each chapter is an email in the first part. So, they will be quick paced and short in the beginning, and when they meet in person it'll get longer. It won't be a long story, the romance when it happens physically, will be fast paced. English is not my first language. It's original by me.

Blurb: A reluctant farm boy discovers he is the vessel to an immense power capable of tipping the balance in the fight against the Dark King. ___________________________________ Synopsis: The world is in the brink of apocalypse, losing the war against the forces of evil. The last Gatekeeper died a century ago at the hands of the Dark King. What remains of the five great races of Mortals, Mages, Giants, Elves and Dwarves were hiding inside the walled city of Eldoria, the last stronghold of the living. When all hope was lost, the Gatekeeper, a Zodiac Prince vessel to the twelve primordial gods was reborn. The Zodiac Prince could tip the balance in the fight against the Dark King ONLY if he can control the power of the twelve great elemental spirits—a feat none of his previous incarnates were able to accomplish. Unbeknownst to many, the Dark King seeks the power the boy holds for his grand scheme to blanket the whole world in perpetual darkness. Even the 12 zodiac spirits have their own agenda that do not necessarily align with that of the Zodiac Prince. Will he succeed where his predecessors have failed? Will he still fight for the great city of Eldoria when he learns that a dark secret hides behind its walls? And that everything he was lead to believe is not necessarily true. ___________________________________ Excerpt: Everything seemed to happen in slow motion. Uruk followed me, unaware of my plan. Reaching the statue, I impaled myself on the sword's pointy edge. The sharp pain of the blade piercing my stomach was excruciating, but I barely registered it. Blood poured from the wound, and for a moment, I wondered if the blood contract had failed. "Did the blood contract work?" I thought, feeling my life drain away. "Is this how everything ends?" My vision darkened, and I felt a strange, peaceful calm. As my consciousness began to slip away, I whispered, "Solaris… arise." A surge of immeasurable energy enveloped me like a warm blanket. A strong red flame covered my entire body, melting the sword and turning the ground beneath me to magma. I floated in the fiery red flames, feeling my wounds close. In a void space within my consciousness, I felt my soul merge with Solaris. When the transformation was complete, an enormous amount of energy coursed through my body. The zodiac symbol of the lion was etched on my right arm, signifying my newfound control over the Zodiac element of fire.
