[COMPLETED] This is an epic, character driven tale about love, gaining freedom, finding yourself, and overcoming hardship. Stolen away as a child, Erinne has spent her life as a slave to the orcs, a race that has been at war with humans for as long as she can remember. However, times are changing and the new Great Chieftain has forbidden the keeping of slaves in a bid to bring peace with the humans. Being freed is only the beginning. She struggles to find her place in the world as humans no longer accept her for being too "orcish" and orcs find her too human. She is stuck in between, in the heart of a war attempting to broker peace for the orcs that saved her life while she fights to survive and understand the war inside her own heart and find where she belongs.

In a world where superpowers make you either a celebrity or a criminal, Aether chose a long time ago where she stands. A metahuman who can change her appearance, Aether is currently on top of the game, the public face of government-sponsored superheroes in United America. She does have her share of problems: petty criminals, annoying coworkers, supervillains who have escaped justice for far too long... and the growing sense that being on top of the game just means having a target on her back. At the other end of the scale, the villain Lucid has just been forced out of hiding and back into the game - by a reporter who paid for her nosiness with her life. Lucid reluctantly joins up with the other supervillains and is immediately sucked into a convoluted scheme that could change the definition of superhumanity. Aether is having trouble trusting her teammates as they scramble to keep innocent civilians out of the crossfire. The question is: if Lucid just wants to quit the game, why is she so hell-bent on taking Aether out with her?

When Anna May is kidnapped by a handsome, shapeshifting Dragon Prince, she'll have to decide if accepting him as her mate is worth never seeing her family again. ***** After returning home from studying abroad, twenty-five-year-old Anna May is kidnapped from her South Asian village by Prince Raiden, a gorgeous shapeshifting Dragon Prince that's been appearing in her dreams. Trapped in his underwater kingdom, Raiden claims she's his mate, but Anna wants nothing to do with him -- especially since becoming his Queen means never returning home.

And are those feelings worth her family, her reputation, and the risk of starting a war? [[word count: 70,000-80,000 words]]

The strange rune gives her strange powers. She is able to steal other people's runes. Now a dangerous assassin, Laika travels the lands of Kainor until she is finally captured by the King of Galabee's soldiers.

"I am Cahira, keeper of the Dragon's fire and I bow for no one" Cahira an orphan ousted by a village who was afraid by a power she could not control. Isolated in a dense forest, unwittingly protecting the village that casted her out, treated no better then a feral watchdog. At least until, a wounded goblin comes baring a message and a false prophecy that sends her on a wild chase to find a mentor to train the beast within her. But things are not always what they seem. A pawn is a pawn, whether it's protecting your captors, being an unwilling participant in an uprising or a vital piece in a monster's soul. But it doesn't matter, not for a person with nothing else to lose but with everything to gain... Or is that how it was suppose to go? (Updates are slow but they will come my little spit-fires. You can scream at me on the convo feed, if you're impatient. I understand, I'm yelling at myself too)

FREE STORY WITH EXCLUSIVE CONTENT. This is *not* a Paid Story. Eighteen-year-old hockey prodigy Elliot Wexler has three goals for senior year. One: somehow graduate with a 3.5 GPA. Two: hide his bipolar disorder from his peers. And three: make it into the NHL with no scandals. Piece of cake. What he doesn't expect is to find Lucy, a homeless girl, hiding from the winter frost in his dad's shed. Elliot's busy, complicated life doesn't permit room for error, and falling in love with a girl from a totally different world sounds like the opposite of a good idea. But Elliot can't help but be drawn to Lucy and her elusive ways--even when she seems to vanish from his life non-stop, each time leaving him with a bigger hole in his heart. But Elliot is determined to break down Lucy's barriers. And when he does, he discovers that her life is more complicated--and dangerous--than he could have imagined. With drafting season approaching, and Elliot's fragile mental health deteriorating, he's forced to face a difficult question: Is first love supposed to hurt so much? *** PLEASE DO NOT ADD THIS STORY TO GOODREADS.
