When you are a child in the werewolf community you are hidden away from the pack. This is to save the family embarrassment, in case the child turns out to be a Lunrea or a child without the moon. These children are either killed or sent away in secret to serve a Alpha of another pack. Aurelia was one of these children. The Alpha knows her as 23, while the Alpha's son knows her as mate. Sneak peak *Baffled by where the light was coming from, I sat up in my bed and came face to face with a glowing, shirtless, confused-looking Grayson. *Something caught my eyes suddenly and I stopped in my tracks. I felt my heart sink at the sight that laid before me crumbled in the snow. Even I was not in my right state of mind, I recognized how serious the situation was in front of me. "Benedick, Caesar, Beatrice! Come quickly I screamed!" *Cold tile floor, a sickening thud, a door flying open. *"Hello," the boy said, breaking the silence of the snow covered woods. He turned to look in my direction. His green eyes seemed to glow ever so slightly in the dimly lit forest . "I know you're there. The spirts told me you were coming, although I don't think I was expecting you so soon. Come out, we have much to talk about." *"I killed them they are dead because of me!" she cried. "Mate!" he growled. * Look I know it sounds impossible, and I thought it was a dream at first. Until... well that's another story. A story that I think I need to tell you, so listen closely." *The second was Alpha Luka. He looked so much like Grayson it was hard for me to look away from him. What would he do to me right now if he knew that I was not only his precious son's mate, but I had also knocked him out and he was laying on the floor a couple of doors down? * "I relive that night and days leading up to it over and over again in my nightmares. But for you, I will relive it one more time."

The key to proving Siobhan's innocence lies within the highlands, a home she never thought she'd see again. Siobhan isn't sure she's ready to confront the past that's hunted her for so long, but continuing to deny the truth only puts her and her companion Wren in greater danger. Wren's patience for seeking the truth is waning while his magic grows stronger, and Siobhan worries he lost more than his fiancé to magic. As she struggles to help him learn control, she realizes more than friendship connects them. This fragile link puts Siobhan in a place she never expected, reinforcing that everything she's ever known is a lie. Ever faithful Elias has left Siobhan's side for the first time since she was born. He believes she's going to need allies in the coming battle to reclaim her birthright. Elias knows after Siobhan was framed for murdering her father, the future King of Ardorn could be the last supporter she has left. Prince Eloy, already scarred by the broken union between Draygon and Ardorn, will only lend his support if Elias returns to him what Draygon has stolen. An inferno is awakening and if they don't act fast the world will do more than burn. It'll end. ___ If you're reading this on any site but Wattpad, then congratulations, it was stolen.

To hell with everyone. That's Siobhan's motto. Not even her loyal mentor Elias can strip her of her desire to barter passage to Ardorn where she can live without fear of her past catching up to her, a past that destroyed everything she loved. Streetwise and hardened to reality, Siobhan keeps her head down and out of the crosshairs of the Vanguard Generals--men who enslave anyone with magic into will-less perfect soldiers and kill any human who gets in their way. Their brutal methods part crowded streets and make even Siobhan shiver at the sight of their crimson cloaks. To stay clear of them is to survive and Siobhan is a master of survival. Until she meets Wren. His naïve, wannabe thief ways, would have been fun to play with if not for the fact he's willing to sacrifice everything, including his life, in order to rescue his fiancé. Siobhan finds herself pulled into his quest; one that shatters everything she thought she wanted. Reaching Ardorn becomes the least of her problems. If Siobhan doesn't accept who she was born to be, the entire world will shatter and a great evil will rise. So much for having a little fun. ___ This story was posted to Wattpad and only Wattpad.

For shop girl Evin, alchemy is an understood part of life. She learned how to brew superior potions at a young age and can't imagine her life without the use of Alertness, For General Pain, and Menstrual Cramp Cure. Though already apprenticed to a local master alchemist, she can't help feeling that there might be more for her to achieve. In a different part of the continent, Master Bricot teaches alchemy at the University of Craestor and is working feverishly at his residency project--translating the sacred document The Facerum--when a student of his approaches him seeking help on an unprecedented issue. And south of Craestor in Daitak Capital, the Seat of the World, Emperor Regent Bryn Beynon can't stand potions or those who make and sell them, believing their use, especially martially, to be barbaric and cruel. His first act when coming of age will be to begin imposing legal strictures on the use and sale of such items. Out in the Wilds of Tief, Craix, who travels alone, has never been safe. Not since she was born. Forever trying to evade her pursuers, she travels across the country, constantly intercepting important messages. And over all people in the realm of Heladrith, a pantheon of powerful gods sits in judgement and benevolence, silent for centuries--but not for much longer. Potent is an original, third-person omniscient, past-tense, low fantasy tale with an ensemble cast of approximately eight characters of different genders, orientations, colors, and classes. --Seeking beta readers for this manuscript!
