[AMBYS 2025 GRAND FAVORITE] After receiving an unexpected package from an unexpected sender, seventeen-year-old Amelia Kingston is thrown into the prestigious Olympian High. For someone whose life revolved around constant transferring to schools due to her foster father's odd paranoia, she already knows the rule of thumb: fit in, act natural and most importantly, don't attract unnecessary attention. Unsurprisingly, she breaks all three and ends up staggering to the school's electrical room, only to be shot down by a distracted student with pure lightning, knocking her unconscious. As soon as she wakes up, she is thrown into a world of godly incarnates, backstabbing enemies and lost myths coming back to life.

(12x featured) When alluring bad girl Natalie Holt is forced to be roommates with the sweet Mira Jung, neither of them expect the tension to brew into a steaming attraction. ********* Hot guys. Hot women. Endless tans at the beach. All at the fingers of one beautiful but notorious bad girl Natalie Holt. Her bed is never empty, and even though it's a different person every time, she prefers it that way. But when her third roommate-with-benefits ends horribly, her plans to save up enough money to open her dream dance studio might just go down the drain. So when Mira Jung, the girl whom she resents, offers a free room at her luxury condo, she has no choice but to accept it. Besides, even if Mira irritates her to death, she's still cute... and interesting. Sweet dancer Mira Jung is desperately looking for a roommate so she can be away from her overbearing rich parents. While they're paying for her condo, it was under two conditions: she can't live alone, and she can't live with a boy. With the clock ticking, she invites Natalie to extend her one-night couch surfing into a permanent roommate arrangement. Seems like the worst idea, especially when Natalie is like a roommate sent straight from hell who resents Mira from day one. But Mira is still drawn to Natalie's alluring aura... because she's too damn hard to resist. What if Mira is exactly the right dosage of sweet espresso that Natalie needs?

When a lost mafia heiress is claimed by a rivaling family, she's forced to trust a ruthless enforcer to survive - even as their growing connection threatens to pull her further into a world where loyalty is deadly and control is everything ___ Control is the only thing keeping Luca Bianchi alive. Haunted by the ghosts of a job gone wrong, he's built a new reputation on precision, restraint, and never making the same mistake twice. But when Luca is assigned to protect a long-lost mafia heiress, he's forced into close proximity with the one variable he could never account for - her. Sienna Russo has spent her life searching for a place to call home, carefully avoiding a past that has always felt just out of reach. Being pulled back into the world she was born into should feel like the answer, but instead it feels like a trap. Because the deeper she's dragged into the politics of feuding Families, the clearer it becomes that her survival depends on more than just playing the part. With enemies closing in, the only thing standing between her and a brutal fate is a man who shouldn't have a soul left to save. But he's just as dangerous as the world she's been thrown into; controlled, ruthless, and unwilling to let anything disrupt the order he's built. Luca was sent to protect her. Falling for her was never part of the job. And in a world where loyalty is currency and weakness is fatal, wanting her may be the one mistake Luca can't afford to make. -- This literary work and all of its parts were written solely for use by the copyright owner.

For the Slates, demon slaying is the family business. And eighteen-year-old Perrin has fully embraced her chosen profession. But when her sister, fifteen-year-old Ace, declares she's ready to join the cause, Perrin has her reservations. First of all, the case she's picked involves not one, but three demonic foes. A tricky proposition for any new slayer. Second, something eerily familiar lurks at the heart of the infested town. A red-eyed presence that may or may not be the demon who murdered their brother a decade ago. Third, Ace refuses to listen. To reason, to orders, to sense. And in this line of work, one false move can get you killed. Along with their exasperated father and an overeager grocery store clerk, Perrin and Ace set out to raise a little hell and bag a trio of baddies. But demons aren't the only ones to fear. And as enemies close in on all sides, the Slates will need to trust each other and their training to stay one step ahead of the coming storm.

Aiko Miller moved into her tiny house at the edge of the city for one simple reason: she wanted something that was hers. After a childhood shaped by military relocations, strict expectations, and the constant pressure to be perfect, quiet feels like freedom. For one week, her mornings have belonged only to coffee, sunlight, and the small garden she planted with careful hands. Then she finds a dragon sleeping in her flower beds. Before she can decide whether she is hallucinating or losing her mind, a calm, infuriatingly composed stranger appears at her door and insists the dragon must be retrieved before anyone notices. Unfortunately, someone does. Her mother arrives unannounced. Now Aiko must juggle a baby dragon the size of a Saint Bernard, a classified magical secret, and a fake boyfriend who is far too convincing for her own good. As the day spirals into improvised love stories, cultural interrogations, and near-disastrous bursts of smoke, the lie begins to feel dangerously close to the truth. And when the lying stops and the smoke clears, Aiko will have to decide whether independence means standing alone-or choosing who gets to stay. ཐིཋྀ.𓈒𓂂𓏲܀.𓈒𓂂𓏲𖥔܀.𓈒𓂂𓏲܀❀.𓈒𓂂𓏲𖥔܀ཐིཋྀ❀.𓈒𓂂𓏲ཐིཋྀ܀ Participant of the || Open Novella Contest 2026.

[UNDER EDITING] The princess. A role more symbolic than powerful, a position more caging than liberating. A life more dreadful than joyous. It's a wonder to the people why Princess Lantana ran from her position. Yet, free in the forest, Lantana never felt more jubilant. The General. A man of stoic brutality, his name laced with fear tied to the battlefield. A man who's surprisingly level-headed for a man of war, yet wholly devoted to the crown. When the General returns Lantana to her gilded lifestyle, she's swept into a world of ballgowns and delicacies, yet tension is simmering beneath the golden folds of her dresses or the foundations of the castle. Tension pulled from the deepest roots of the world, pressure waiting to explode. For the King made a dreadful bargain, one with divine consequences. *** TW: Descriptions of violence, war, death, mild swearing.

Thessaly has spent her life haunted by nightmares of a shadowed male and a beast prowling beneath her skin. But her visions are not the only pieces of herself she cannot trust. Her memories have been stripped from her again and again, her past stolen and her origins buried, until one violent night forces her to unleash the darkness she has spent her life suppressing. Dragged into the hidden world of the fae, a realm divided between the radiant Seelie Court and the shadowed Unseelie, Thessaly learns her nightmares were never only dreams. They were warnings. Invitations. A door opening between her and something ancient enough to recognize the magic waking inside her. Riven, heir to the Seelie Court, is the first to see the woman beneath the prophecy. Ruthless, guarded, and bound by secrets of his own, he should be her enemy. Instead, he becomes the one person capable of anchoring her to the humanity she is terrified to lose. But fate has another claim on her-one that has been waiting in her nightmares. Kael, commander in a rising dark army, does not fear what Thessaly is becoming. He reveres it. As her power grows, the dreams that once haunted her become something far more dangerous: a connection. Where Riven offers control, Kael offers release. Where Riven loves the woman she is fighting to remain, Kael worships the weapon she could become. And to a girl whose life has been stolen, sealed, and buried, being worshipped might feel dangerously like being seen. As war stirs across the realms and forgotten bloodlines begin to wake, Thessaly must uncover the truth of what was taken from her before the darkness beneath her skin convinces her to surrender the last fragile pieces of who she was. Because the prophecy the courts fear may not be warning of a savior at all, but of the hidden heirs whose choices could save the realms-or end them. ~~~~~~ A special thank you to @ToWolfKin for creating the cover.
