"Mooooorrrrrrrreeeeeeee, this book is like air, i need it!" @noromance101 "These chapters are written BEAUTIFULLY! You are, without a doubt, my favorite writer on this site. " @nagykt "Reading this feeds my soul." @Yrthraethra Sixteen-year-old Mirra can see people's memories. She is a Shadow Weaver, one of the outlawed, glitter-eyed race feared in her land and forced into brutal slavery as children. She and her brother Kel have escaped their fate by hiding near the frozen mountains. But when bounty hunters snatch Kel, Mirra injured and unable to track long distances will lose him unless she gives herself up to his captors. As as a Shadow Weaver who's survived childhood and whose golden-flecked irises have faded, concealing her talent, Mirra's own value is priceless on the black-market. Taken to a lawless town in the northern territories, Mirra convinces her captors to sell her to a mysterious young man destined for the same province as the officer who has bought her brother. The young man is the Kingdom's missing Prince, feared dead after his escort was attacked on an expedition. He has been in hiding, waiting for a Shadow Weaver whose skill he can use to discover who ordered his assassination. But before he will risk breaking his father's law and taking Mirra to the royal court, he must test her talent and her ability to hide it. If Mirra fails, her hopes of seeing her brother again will be cut by the noose around her neck.

❃ AWARD-WINNING PUBLISHED NOVEL ❃ BOOK I OF THE TRANSCENDENCE SERIES ❃ Growing up during the centuries-long conflict between the empires of Egypt and Hatti, the young princess Istara is taken hostage by the King of Hatti to secure the loyalty of her father, the King of Kadesh to the empire. Soon her new life in Hatti's glittering capital becomes all she knows. Bound in blood before the gods to Hatti's unwilling crown prince, Istara, now Hatti's queen-in-waiting, learns she will never be loved. But the drums of war beat again, and when the scheming plans of Hatti's king threaten the existence of all civilization, the gods give Istara a choice: to leave behind everything she knows to save mankind, or remain where she is, powerless, a token on the game board of kings. On the brink of one of the most brutal battles in history, she chooses to risk her life to deliver a message to the only man able to prevent the prophecy from becoming a reality--her mortal enemy, the Pharaoh Ramesses II. Wounded, cold and hungry, she wanders in the battle's horrific aftermath, and aids a powerful commander, who she learns protected her once, and has been bound to her ever since by a prophetic dream of his future. Despite his resistance, and Istara once more becoming a pawn of kings, they must confront an eternal love so powerful, not even kings, the gods, or death can keep them apart.

•A Wattpad featured story• Hogwarts circa 1975. The Marauders' era is at its peak: James Potter is head over heels in love with a certain redheaded prefect. Remus Lupin, ever the responsible one, is usually keeping track of the Marauders' bets, and trying- however unsuccessfully- to keep the others from creating too much trouble. Peter Pettigrew has been acting a bit odd lately- odder than he normally is, that is. Lastly Mr. Sirius Black- the pureblood player, who cannot for the life of him sustain a relationship for more than a month. But something is about to change. For their fifth year, three girls have transferred from Salem Witches Institute, and from the moment they met the Marauders, they're keeping them on their toes. Despite the friendly rivalry, Sirius finds himself drawn to one of them after finding out about her past, so much like his own. Sassy, single-minded and strong, Arianna Shah is more than pleased to find extremely good friends in the Marauders- after all, who doesn't enjoy being a part of the coolest prank wars in school? But in the process of pranking one another, Arianna finds herself drawn to a certain gray-eyed prankster. Helpful Reviews- "I love those two, but they're a bloody mess, and somebody needs to help them!"- James Potter. "Black had better not try to come near one of my friends again, or I'll hex him into next year."- Lily Evans. "We haven't had a good prank war in ages, so I'm a little thankful they came along- it's definitely going to be an interesting year."- Remus Lupin. "Yes yes, it's all very interesting, can we go eat now?"- Peter Pettigrew. Disclaimer- All characters and places you know belong to JKR and Warner Bros, the rest are created by me. The story will mostly be from either Arianna or Sirius' POV, but I MAY include other POVs to keep things fresh. PS, Sorry about the Fall Out Boy-esque chapter titles! PPS, none of the pictures or gifs belong to me, unless mentioned otherwise

He just wants her booty, but she'll end up stealing his heart. ***** After pirates kidnap seventeen-year-old Ana in a case of mistaken identity, the orphaned housemaid prepares for the worst.

❖ QUEENKILLER, KINGMAKER Book 1 ❖ Feudal Southeast-Asia filled with magic, daemons, and a royal conspiracy. This is Isla's quest for the truth, and her slow spiral into becoming her very own worst nightmare. When the gods ascended thousands of years ago, they left behind the divine gift of theurgy. Its powers still echo amongst men, but run fiercer yet in the blood of kings and queens. And one of them will stop at nothing before Isla is dead. A betrayal lures her out of refuge and into her journey home, where she must unmask her enemies before they unmask her. The theurgy that she has had to keep hidden for many years can be her greatest ally or her most lethal foil. Only her wits can guide her through the dangerous politics of the Surikh court. But amidst the plots and schemes bubbling around her, she uncovers something far more sinister than the identity of her enemies. Something that can change her entire life; indeed, entire kingdoms. ↝ this work contains violence, profanity, and sexual references ↜ ↝ Winner of Wattys 2016 HQ Love Award ↝ Winner of FANTASCI's first season Chosen One awards ↝ Winner of The Cryptic Awards 2018 ↝ Featured in Fantasy as of 18-01-2017 ↝ Wattpad Editor's Pick January 2021
