Raya's Followed Works

When I Was the Moon and You Were the Ocean
[BL | 18+] Ronan had no memory of his life before he became a siren. It wasn't a particularly solitary life; he often spent time in the quaint, seaside town people watching. But he felt a comforting peace amongst the waves of the ocean, particularly in the stillness of night while the town slept. But when an unfamiliar man collapses on the beach, Ronan feels drawn to him like the tide to the moon, and he quickly realizes there's more to life than the solitude of the ocean.

General Sevei is of the firm opinion that Nobles are shady and Alchemists even shadier. Noble Alchemists are the absolute worst. He is not looking forward to partnering with one to guard the border.
Upon their introduction, though, it would seem they have already met... under very intimate circumstances.
Oh...,****...
~~~*~~~
This is set in the same world as my novel "Salvage", but they are completely independent stories. You don't have to read one to read the other. (This one is back in medieval times, about 400 years prior to Salvage.)
Just like in Salvage, here you can expect some humor and some angst (and some occasional smut) and a bunch of hot messes just doing their best. Despite the seemingly salacious premise, this is a love story at its heart, as well as a story of friendship and found family.

Magician's Touch
5th September 2024 update: Still working on it. My writing time is unpredictable around family and work commitments, but I really enjoy writing, and I love my characters, so I keep doing it. Cover is in production.

Wings, Flings, and Demon Kings
A rambly angel. A debonair demon. A very stuck elevator...
NIRAEL has never been the best angel. A little too loud, always in the wrong place at the wrong time, she constantly finds herself written up by her archangel superiors for minor misdemeanors. When her Remedial Goodness program forces her to do a capstone project on Earth, she decides this will be the moment she finally turns her life around.
That is, until she meets...
AZERATH has always been a good demon. Which, in demon terms, is tantamount to career suicide. Sent to Earth as part of his Remedial Evil program, his demonic superiors issue him an ultimatum: corrupt a hundred souls in the next month or risk being unmade.
But they didn't specify that the souls he corrupts have to be human.
Mostly romcom fluff with a dash of existential angst.

The Prison

Aurora: The Dawn of Irenia
Twelve years after The Great War of Kits Swallow, dark days cover the face of the inhabitants of Irenia, no parties, no weddings, no gatherings, no wars. The once green fields of Tart which ran heavy with the waters of Kit's Swallow, have dried up like the deserts of Nomad's Land.
The once busy town of Emperor's Kiss, filled with running children by day and glamourous harlots by night, now house barren halls of memories. The once great and wealthy city of Irenelle, that once flowed of milk and honey, now stood desolate, holding nothing but a facade of power shown by The House of Wolves.
Only one she-wolf, among the fateless, still stands in faith of a brighter tomorrow; but what happens when her closest alliance, Queen Catalina, leader of House of Fae shows up at her doorstep half-alive, claiming that an ancient group of cloaked men destroyed her entire kingdom? What does she do when she discovers that dark forces moved in the deep of the night, and were starting a rebellion?
