[A Wattpad FEATURED story!] She's been King Thranduil's close friend for a long time. But when a shocking rumor about his past comes to light, it shakes her entire world. How well does she really know him? With the threat of war and an uncertain future for the Woodland Realm, her comfortable life is changing forever, and so are her feelings for her friend. A story about second chances with eventual romance. Set during the events of the Lord of the Rings. Thranduil/OC Disclaimer: Everything belongs to Tolkien except for my characters. A/N: It was before Christmas 2014 when I first watched BBC's Emma with Romola Garai (wonderful, by the way - watch it if you haven't). A few days later I went to see The Hobbit BOTFA on its opening night. It was during a car trip from a family Christmas party when I came up with idea for this story. And while it doesn't follow the Jane Austen classic completely (Thranduil is no Mr. Knightley!), it was certainly inspired by it. I enjoyed the challenge. Check out the FB page for the story: facebook.com/StarsofVardafanpage/ (thanks to @MaggieShivers for creating it and running it!)

Narcissa Black knows that eventually she'll end up with a magical mark in the shape of an animal somewhere on her person: the likeness of the patronus of her soulmate, whom she's destined to love more than she could love anyone else and who will be marked with the image of Narcissa's patronus. However, after her sister Andromeda's match turns out to be a Muggleborn, Narcissa's parents decide to arrange a marriage for her and deny her the chance to find her soulmate. Lucius Malfoy can't stand the thought of his friend Narcissa being forced into a loveless life, and taking her side brings him into the line of fire of Thorfinn Rowle, whom Narcissa's parents plan for her to marry. Lucius is unprepared when the mark that materializes on his back happens to match Narcissa's patronus. {This is a Harry Potter Soulmate AU featuring my OTP. I do not own Harry Potter or its characters. Only the OCs are mine. I just happen to have a lot of love for Lucissa. Thank you, JKR. I greatly appreciate comments/reviews and love to hear people's thoughts on stories.}

Aemilia has put the adventurous life of being the Dragonborn behind her, now living with her best friend Erik in the secluded forest of Falkreath. The dragons are gone, the Imperials defeated in a blood-ridden yet historical three year war by the Stormcloaks. Ulfric has the power of Skyrim in his grasp. In honor of the Stormcloaks' victory, the Jarl of Windhelm is holding a celebration feast which Aemilia's invited to. However, things are bound to go awry and chaos resurfaces, forcing her to take up the title as Dovahkiin once again. Though this time she's at a disadvantage - power resides where men believe it resides, and they no longer believe it's with her. She's a fighter, she's a survivor, but most importantly - She's Dragonborn. ~I try to keep this story as lore-friendly as possible, apart from characters I've created.

"I'm Aria Mikaelson, pleasure to meet me I know." She smirked. "Cocky much?" He laughed, eyes shining with amusement. "Oh, very much," Aria mused. Aria, as she was nicknamed, is a hard-headed, over protective, severely scary, insane and a cocky ass Original Vampire. One memory wipe later she arrives into Mystic Falls just a shell of the true person she was. Although, trouble always seems to follow. Not only was the person she was looking for dead, a human Doppelganger living and breathing after centuries, walking through the door, not one but two Originals showing up one after another, one to lift a curse and one to stop it. And that starts the journey. When her memories return, she won't be the same nice and kind of caring Aria everyone met. No, it'll be the true Aria who fiercely hates and kills anyone that tries to hurt her family. With Hunters, more Originals, Balls, annoying Doppelganger's, Werewolves, Witches and Vampires, can Aria Mikaelson save the ones she loves from the ones she hates, try not to kill the only thing making her brothers Hybrids, survive her siblings whilst doing it, deal with history better left buried or fail at all of those. Only time won't tell. But Aria might. ~ Author's Note: It's better then that description. Give it a go.
