Born with glowing green eyes. Destined for rotten luck. Peasant girl Meya Hild was 'given' the opportunity to become a Lady. At swordpoint. By mercenaries. Engaged to a dying nobleman. Poisoned with one month to live. Tasked to loot a castle. In a kingdom running out of resources. Little did Meya know this shenanigan would lead her across land and over sea, from a mountain made of sapphire to an island shrouded in spiral clouds, with masquerades, heists, kidnappings, shipwrecks, alchemy, romance, and an unexpected 'bump' along the way. Let the misery begin. 🐉 🎯 PROGRESS: Book One (Chpt. 1 - 65): 100% Book Two (Chpt. 66 - 125): 100% Bingers, YOUR TIME HAS COMETH.

LOVERS ON CAMERA. BEST FRIENDS BEHIND IT. BUT ONE THING'S CERTAIN: THE KISSING SCENES ARE DEFINITELY NOT SCRIPTED. 25-year-old actors Jaxon Lewis and Ramil Cariño are best friends, famous for their online personalities and great chemistry. When their Agents gave them the biggest opportunity of auditioning for a role in the world's most anticipated Book-to-TV Adaptation called "As Long as You're with Me," things went spiraling down because Jaxon and Ramil got casted for the roles they didn't audition for. Fictional characters Levi and Andres are your clichéd romantic-comedy trope of the nerd falling for the jock in the books -- a gay couple. But at least they're one of the leading roles, right? This is good for their careers. It's no big deal for them -- after all, it's just work. It's not like Jaxon's excited for those kissing scenes anyway -- nope! He's definitely not going to mess them up just to get more retakes. And he definitely isn't crushing on his best friend for a very long time now. Definitely not. ↠ ON-GOING FIRST DRAFT, will contain errors.

Vera White was perfect. At least on the outside. With her flawless skin, amber eyes, and shining copper hair she was a sight to behold. It was a unanimous decision at Hogwarts that Vera White was everything everybody wanted to be. Kind, good looking, smart, and rich. Superficially she was faultless. Inside her though there was poison. Running through her veins, monopolizing her heart, poisoning her thoughts, she was sick. Behind her impeccable disposition, she was a killing machine. Whether she was poisoning herself or others was the question always running through her mind. Was she a trap? Seducing people close just to kill some part of them. Using people to live? She didn't know anymore. All she knew was that she needed to be stopped. She needed to find an antidote to her own poison before everything including her fell apart. ----------- • first story • the facts in this book are not all canon. they have been adjusted to fit the storyline so not to overwhelm the book with oc's. please be respectful of all adjustments. • please comment, vote, and read!!

Nico, Percy, and Thalia are given a quest that only children of the Big Three can complete... together. They must go, to Hogwarts. (takes place in The Dark Prophecy) I got bored of all of the other nonaccurate Demigods go to Hogwarts and the only good one I found was updated 2 years ago so I figured I'd write my own

Names hold power. In the world of gods, the name Perseus Jackson is a respected name, a name that has the respect of the gods. To demigods the name Perseus Jackson is the name of a hero that has done more than any other hero combined. For Monsters it is a name that brings fear and destruction in its wake. For the wizards, well they know nothing about this Perseus Jackson, or they didn't, not until Dumbledore stumbled upon an old family record. Perseus Jackson...grandson of Voldemort.

Cordelia had always known that she was different from other people, in a non self-absorbed way. But when her father drops her off at a camp for the children of the gods, she knows her life will change. Whether that's for worse or for good is still up for debate. {Philosopher's Stone - Deathly Hallows} {Lightning Thief - Blood of Olympus}

An orphan with a dubious pedigree strives to secure her future through marriage, but as she stumbles through the dance of courtship, she begins to question who she truly is -- and who she wants to be. ***** Edith Shepley looks like a Wyrm. She takes after her father, whoever he was, but that doesn't change things. She is a proper Folk lady nonetheless, trained from the cradle to govern as Baroness of Ewert someday. And she knows her duty. Now a woman at sixteen years old, Edith must marry and beget Ewert's next heir. She obediently considers suitor after suitor, some sweet, some baffling, some detestable. But the more she sees of her mother's society, the more Edith questions whether she really is a Folk lady, after all. And the more she's stung by its insults, its injuries and injustices, the more she doubts she really wants to be. Book One of The Unfinished Wyrm! Wattys 2017 "The Storysmiths" winner!

Artemis Rhodes had been working a shift at her minimum-wage waitressing job when two unfairly attractive patrons handed her a flyer inscribed with only a phone number. They told her a better job awaited her, and they left a generous tip. A promise. An English degree and school debt equivalent to half a house haunted Artemis more than any real ghost she'd never seen. After all, as an over-qualified waitress with her rented room in the city, alone, watching Netflix, ghosts were rarely a problem, but bills were downright damning. At least, until she dialed the number and spoke to Michelle, an owner of two businesses: ghost-hunting, and The Secret Hotel, an upscale companion service that catered privately to actors, politicians, entrepreneurs, and anyone with money. The two men Artemis served were not only part of the ghost-hunting team, but also companions. The job of Michelle's personal assistant would end the fear of bills, but bring the supernatural into her life like never before, beginning with an illegally kept ghost named Skylar who protected the companions from ill-mannered clientele. As an Empath, every sound and every glimpse of naked flesh, even the sensation of lust in the air, consumes her. But she can also connect with ghosts and become a prime member of the hunting team. She has a chance to conquer her fears of the world, of herself, and to let others conquer her in ways she never knew she wanted-as long as they survive their ghost-hunting missions. (For ages 18+.

¿Sobrevivir a unas granadas? Hecho. Doloroso, pero sobrevivió. ¿Averiguar cómo carajos mantener una relación con sus hermanos sin ser parte del crimen organizado? En proceso. ¿Superar el hecho de que queriendo cuidarlo su madre hizo un daño que espera poder solucionar? Difícil. ¿Volver a Londres y reencontrarse con el amor de su existencia y su obra de arte favorita? Por favor, sí, es muy necesario. Los objetivos son bastante claros y precisos: sobrevivir, volver a Londres e intentar ser feliz. Los obstáculos también están bastante definidos: una familia dedicada al crimen, una madre confundida, una ex sacándolo de sus casillas y una relación con sus hermanos que no quiere perder. Edmun o Moritz. Austria o Londres ¿Podría ser ambos? ¿Tendrá que perderlo todo? La vida no es fácil y él lo sabe, la suya siempre ha sido bache tras bache, pero esta vez se siente preparado para mandar al carajo todo y conseguir lo que quiere.
