Of Flames and Gold

[My WSA 2024 Entry novel! Please vote] In a world where mythical beings have fallen into an "eternal slumber," a thriving underground market exploits the stolen essence of these dormant creatures. At its epicenter are dragons—majestic beings desired for their scales, organs, and prized eggs. The most coveted treasure of all is a dragon's name, a key that holds the power to control its very existence. Dragon Lord, guardian of a clutch of dormant eggs, lives in isolation atop a hill, surrounded by a forest that veils his castle. He bears the scars of past betrayals, having been deceived by those who feigned love to steal his treasures or claim his head as a bounty. Jaded and cold, he trusts no one, living a solitary existence. However, his solitude is shattered when a woman unwittingly stumbles into his life. Yara finds herself in Dragon Lord's treasured den amidst a battle between the dragon and thieves. In a twist of fate, she mistakenly bonds with the dormant eggs, breathing life into them. Reluctantly, Dragon Lord allows Yara into his world, and their journey unfolds amid the looming threat of underground organizations seeking to exploit the dragons for profit. As the eggs come to life, so does an unexpected connection between Dragon Lord and Yara. Despite his cold and jaded exterior, he finds himself unable to ignore her presence. Yara, too, cannot deny the pull she feels towards him, and emotions begin to burn beneath the surface. Together, they must navigate the challenges of waiting for the eggs to hatch, fend off those who seek to exploit the dragon and its offspring, and confront the secrets that Yara harbors—a revelation that could destroy everything. In this tale of flames and gold, two scarred souls in a world where trust is a rare and precious commodity must confront the ghosts of their pasts. They navigate the dangerous currents of love and deception, protecting unborn dragons from a world hungry for their magic. Will their bond withstand the trials ahead, or will the flames of betrayal engulf them in the end? A/N: It starts out SLOW, because I tend to get lost in the pages and be descriptive but once it gets to the action, it really picks up! Looking forward to growing with you all on this journey!!!

Would You Like To Join The Magic Academy

# headmaster # relax When he had failed his college entrance exam, he had decided to build a magical academy with the help of the system in order to avoid being punished by his parents. The academy did not teach normal subjects like languages and sciences, but fortune telling, curses, summons, alchemies, and other magic-related subjects. At first, not many believed the academy existed and only a few had entered the academy. A few of the academy’s students were dropouts or people with childish fantasy. However, when the first semester had ended and the students had returned home for the break, the student of the Spell Department started to move objects without touching them at home. He even started fires without anything. The student of the Summoning Department started to summon pixies to help with his house chores. The student of the Alchemy Department even showed how he turned stones into gold. The student of the Fortune-telling Department hosted a live stream, and because of how accurate his prediction was, he was hailed as the Prophet. When he was interviewed, he replied, “What? A magic academy? No such thing exists. You have to believe in science. I’ll have to excuse myself first. My students want a Quidditch match with me.” He then turned around, sat on his broom, and flew away.
