KL Nightshade's Works
Forged Blade
The most dangerous thing in this world isn’t demons. It’s the humans who own them.
I wasn’t forced into chains. I walked into them willingly.
For years, I was a ghost in the demon realm—an assassin, untouchable, feared. But power there meant nothing here. The human realm has different rules, and the only way in was through submission. So I let them collar me. I let them shape me into a weapon they thought they could control.
Now, I fight in their arenas, a spectacle for their amusement. I let them think they own me. Let them think I’ve broken. But power isn’t about strength—it’s about control. And I am done being controlled.
One brother keeps a tight leash on my darkness. The other wants to see what happens when it burns the world down. I don’t know which is more dangerous.
There are ways to win a game where you're the one being played. And I’m about to prove it.
🔥 A dark fantasy full of power struggles, slow-burn tension, and morally gray characters. Featuring a complex love triangle, BDSM-positive relationships, ace-spectrum representation, and the question: How much of yourself are you willing to sacrifice to win?

Defiant Blade - A Blades of Tesharen Prequel Novel
Some bonds are forged in steel. I've learned mine are written in blood.
I wasn't born to be a slave. But when the breach in the Chaos Divide opened, my kind poured into the human realm seeking escape—only to find ourselves in chains. Now we're property, curiosities, and for the lucky ones with specific talents... fighters.
With my silver eyes and pale skin marking me as different even among demons, I knew the auction block would bring a high price. What I didn't expect was to catch the attention of Jacobi, the enigmatic owner of the Velez Estate—a man with secrets as dangerous as my own.
Trapped between two brothers with opposing views on what I should become, I must navigate Jacobi's darkness and Selwyn's light while enduring the cruelty of sadistic trainer Deacon. As my fighting skills earn me privileges others can only dream of, I begin to wield influence beyond my chains.
But the Velez Estate holds more secrets than just fighting techniques. Hidden behind locked doors are symbols of a forbidden goddess, rituals long outlawed, and desires that mirror my own forbidden yearnings.
In a world where demons are considered less than human, I've discovered the most monstrous acts are performed by those without horns. And when violence threatens everything I've come to care for, I must decide whether to use my growing power to protect or destroy.
After all, a blade cuts both ways—especially in the hands of someone with nothing left to lose.
