When Nokkland found himself setting off with the inn's barmaid to track down an ice-dragon, he hadn't realized that he would be thrust into the center of a prophecy he knew nothing about. Nor that he would become part of an undercover group of revolutionaries, determined to keep each of Sissera's five races from annihilating the others. He won't survive alone... A vagabond destined to be a dead king. A wayward elf with a knack for being in the wrong place at the wrong time. A lover attempting to play a game of chess with lives. A hot-tempered cupbearer who avoids mirrors at all cost. An architect who designs something much greater than a building. Together, they must play a treacherous game of truths and lies for peace assuming they don't cave into their own fears and split ways first.

#OpenNovellaContest2020 Liera has only ever know what it is like to live by candlelight. The sun does not come up each morning as they do in her novels, the moon does not wax and wane like her father once told her they had, and the stars do not guide the lost as they had done for the great explorers of past times. But all she has ever known is candlelight, and even the small white flames do not give off the same glow that they once had before light went missing. And Liera Homalla is sick of it. She wants to see the light that once dominated all areas of the Beyond, and she's willing to do anything to see it. Well, almost everything.

Protocol. We had been trained to respond to the air. Protocol had been etched into every corner of our bodies. You did not. ever. break. protocol. And yet I open my eyes. yet I lift my head. Yet... This was not protocol. Hayara is an elite, one of the gifted landers in her tightly knit community. Growing up with the teachings of peace and prayer while hiding behind high walls and strict protocols, she is oblivious to what is happening between the other Landers outside the safety of her home. Too weak to defend themselves against the others out there, her people learn to hide instead of fight, be smart instead of strong. But after Hayara is tossed against her will into a world that she barely knows, her life will change forever. And not for the better.

THANK YOU, Wattpad, for the HQ Love Watty Award! Concept: A mysterious young woman flees from her troubled past only to discover it is impossible to escape THE SECRET that haunts her. *PLEASE NOTE: This story was originally inspired by the movie "Sleeping With the Enemy". * * * * * "I would never, Steven," she promised, turning away from him in an attempt to protect herself. "I know you wouldn't," he screamed. Cupping her chin in his hand, he forced her to look at him. "Because I would kill you." His words hung heavy in the air. Sarah's heart sank into her stomach. No matter how many times she'd heard the menacing phrase, she could never get used to it. It had the same affect on her as the first time he'd thrown the ugly words in her face. The familiar sting of bile rose in her throat, and she knew she would deplete the contents of her stomach once she was locked in the safety of their master bath. 'If I make it through this time,' she agonized. Her biggest fear was that one day he would really lose his temper with her. Who knew what would happen then? *This story is an unedited first draft.
