Chronicles of Tessera

Misa_Kiriyu
Welcome to Tessera, a planet where consistency is uncommon. Every 13 days and 4 hours, the world hits the reset button in a terrifying, geological event known simply as the Shift. If you were planning to build a retirement home, tough luck, Tessera specializes in instant demolition and landscape reconfiguration, which is why civilization is long gone and humanity is hanging on by a thread. Meet Cyrus Solith, our socially anxious and perpetually conflicted protagonist. He’s not seeking glory; he’s seeking a single person he lost years ago. His internal life is a chaotic mess, but his external capabilities are anything but, thanks to the mysterious Patterns, geometric markings that grant extraordinary abilities. Cyrus finds himself reluctantly partnered with Rem, a hyper-logical genius who understands the world’s power system better than anyone, even without a Pattern herself. Their co-dependent journey is about survival, but fate has other plans, constantly pushing them toward the world’s central mystery: why did the Shifts start, and how can they possibly be stopped? The first leg of their epic journey throws them immediately into the deep end, forcing Cyrus to confront his greatest weakness...the habit of running away. If he wants to survive the next two weeks, he’ll have to get stronger, smarter, and face the fact that the person hunting him might be closer than he thinks. What You'll Find Inside: A Unique World: A constantly reconfiguring planet where life is a nomadic, high-stakes gamble. The Pattern System: A dynamic magic system based on geometry and mathematics. High-Stakes Combat: Intense, strategic fights where speed and intellect matter more than brute force. Complex Relationships: A strained, co-dependent relationship between an emotionally avoidant protagonist and his hyper-logical foil. Existential Mystery: A quest to uncover the planet's history and stop the cataclysmic Shifts before humanity vanishes entirely.

Wolf Princess Sold to the Dragon King

"Take me instead." Three words. Guinevere Lunaris trades herself and saves 300 lives. Tied. Gagged. Underestimated by a mile. They chain her to a tree in the snow. Mistake. While running for her life, she meets a stranger in the dark and tells him to hide so he isn’t killed. Twelve hours later, he walks into her father's hall wearing a crown. The man she just told to hide in a hole is Maddox Drakencrest, High King of Velkaris. Ruler of an entire continent. Maddox hears his dragon say ‘mate’ right away. But her wolf is silent. More and more Alpha Kings enter the hall. She catches the tail end of her father’s toast and chokes on her wine. "—leave here with a virgin bride." An auction for her hand turns into a full-out bidding war. Maddox wins. 750 million in gold, three dragon fleets, and an urn full of the bastard who chained her the day before. Every force in Velkaris is betting against a wolf on a dragon throne. The Elders say the queen must be a dragon rider, which is impossible for a woman without dragon blood. The king's half-brother agrees with them, but his solution is a civil war and taking the crown for himself. If his brother’s rebellion wins, Maddox dies and she belongs to him. If the elders win, she goes back to the father who sold her. Neither is happening. Her wolf calls Velkaris home. She's not giving it up. They expect Guinevere to behave like a good little wolf princess and play along with their political games. She says bet.
