War of the Gods: Xander's Story

Stryx
Xander—sometimes Xerena—isn’t your typical fae. Born of Spring Courts seduction and Winter Courts shadows, they’re a shapeshifter with only four forms: male, female, wolf, and doe. Limited? Maybe. Dangerous? Absolutely. With a heritage steeped in elemental ice and fae illusion, and a gender that shifts as fluidly as their magic, Xander has always lived between worlds. But in a reality where all mythologies are real, “between” isn’t safe anymore. The gods have declared war on mortals. Not just humans—anyone who isn’t divine. Vampires, werewolves, fae: are all targets in a global genocide fueled by divine pride and ancient grudges. ~ Hello everyone This is a story that has been rattling around in my head for the last couple of years. I have been contemplating writing it for awhile now, but as I have no experience in creative writing I was a touch nervous. Now I decided to "bite the bullet" and put out a chapter to see if how it is received. I would like opinions and critiques, so I can get better at writing. Due to not having the money to hire an editor I decided to use Chatgpt to assist in editing my writing to look for spelling and punctuation errors. If you see any glaring issues please let me know, I have never been great at editing. I haven't decided on an upload schedule yet, but I will play it by ear. I want to make this story as good as I possibly can so if I have to take extra time to rewrite chapters to make sure they fit my style of writing and make sure there are no errors I will do so. If I decide to keep this going this story will likely end up turning into a series of 6 books following the "commanders" of the mortal army. I have the first 3 completely planned out on many sticky notes so it's just a matter of writing it all. Anyway I hope you enjoy Thanks ~ Stryx

The Takeover Was Personal

The Takeover Was Personal They were raised as royalty. Crowned by legacy. Trained to win. Trisha Singhania-Trixie to the few who dare-is the sharp-suited, no-nonsense CEO of The Singhania Royale, Rajasthan's most elite 5-star bar, hotel, and restaurant. Known for her calm dominance and piercing charm, she built an empire with her mind-and guarded her heart with steel. Reeva Khanna-Reeves to those who know the softness behind the sarcasm-is the graceful yet cunning CEO of The Khanna Court, a royal 5-star haven of luxury and legacy. With elegance as her weapon and wit as her armor, she's as alluring as she is unreadable. They've known of each other for years-but never met. Until now. At CROWNED: The New Age Icons Awards in Jaipur, their worlds collide. Flirtation sparks. Tension simmers. And when Trisha wins the title, it's not just the trophy that leaves Reeva breathless-it's a look. A silent invitation neither of them is ready to name. A spontaneous business meeting turns into a proposal: Toast of Royals, a new luxury restaurant meant to unite the two empires. What starts as a calculated partnership quickly blurs into late-night talks, casual touches, and a mutual agreement for no-strings sex. But when bodies begin to crave more than just heat, and hearts start asking questions they never intended to answer, it all spirals. Trisha pulls away. Reeva breaks. And just when it seems like desire was all it ever was, fate intervenes. This time, it's not business. It's not rivalry. It's personal. A royal, Sapphic slow-burn featuring rivals turned partners, casual turned complicated, and love that wasn't part of the pitch-but took over anyway.
