    James Hook was born into a name the world fears. He comes from a long line of legendary pirates who sailed uncharted seas, brought riches and fame, discovered Neverland, and fought to protect it; amazing leaders to their crews and protectors of their people. To James, they were never Evil. They were Good. And among the greatest stood his father, Captain Thaddeus Hook. But betrayed by someone they trusted, his father lost his life. Yet history remembers it differently. The Pans, the ones who unjustly took Neverland, are hailed as heroes, while the Hooks are painted as villains. Since the Pans now rule Neverland, James grew up far from the island his family once called home. Determined to restore their legacy, he dreams of becoming a captain worthy of his bloodline, strong, respected, and brave enough to take back what was stolen and clear the Hook name for good. Years passed, but James never let go of that goal. Everything changed the day Hort handed him an application letter for the School for Good. A pirate...chosen for Good? Stepping into a world of magic and challenges, James must outsmart rivals, prove his worth, and fight for the legacy he was born to protect. Sometimes, the sharpest weapon isn't a sword... It's a hook. This fanfiction of The School for Good and Evil takes place years after book 6: One True King, with some characters and elements from the prequels. I wrote this because I wanted more content about James Hook (prequel), but I knew that would never happen, so I made my own content, which is this story! Follow and like for more chapters!

    Harry Potter retelling, starting on the third book. Hiiii! This is just a funny experiment I am making, trying to get through my writer's block. My english isn't that good, too, so I am so so sorry if I'l write something wrong - feel free to tell. For anyone reading this - all I hope is it's not that bad as I think it is :) Cassandra Monet was Harry Potter fan number one, till the moment of being sent to the past - to 1993. Was this coincidence or and intentional attempt of changing future? Can one play with time to save innocent souls or will they screw up everything? Is spark of hope too much to wish for?

    ** Behind the Sea of Mists of Avalon, more than just one destiny changes in a single night... ** Once, Uther and Igraine Pendragon ruled over Albion-a realm united by love, magic, and the ancient faith. But in a single night of blood and betrayal, the Golden Age falls. Only two children are said to have escaped the bloody assassination: Arthur and Arianna Pendragon. But their trail was lost in the mists of Avalon-and with it, the legacy of the dragon. The dragon is dead. Long live the king. Years later, Albion is a land of shadows. The Crusades have left behind blood and famine; magic is forbidden, and the old religion is persecuted with fire and sword. *** After Robin has exposed her in the most shameful way, Marian seeks a new path outside the walls of Huntingdon and far from Robin of Locksley: under the name Ahren, as a squire in the service of the legendary Silver Knight, Sir Lancelot, she hopes to finally find the long-awaited freedom in Bamburgh. Simon, another squire, soon suspects, however, that there is more to the clumsy newcomer than meets the eye. When Ahren is finally abducted to Avalon under cover of night, the first events begin to unfold that will ultimately change not only the fate of Simon and Ahren, but also that of all of Albion forever. For the land needs more than heroes: it needs hope. And sometimes, hope begins with a whisper... ***** Volume 2 of the A BALLAD OF HEROES SERIES

    "Ye shaadi humare liye sirf ek sauda hai aur kuch nahi." In the golden sands of Jaisalmer, Abhay Pratap Singh is the Reaper-a king who rules with an iron fist. He took a throne through bloodshed and forced a woman into a marriage of revenge, only to exile himself to the shadows of London. Two years later, the Prince of Ice has returned, but he finds Kashi waiting with a sword to his throat and a fire he can no longer control. But the Sheesh Mahal holds more than one ghost. Samar Pratap Singh, the younger prince, returns from a decade in exile to a debt of honor he never signed for. Bound by a father's vow to a woman who has every reason to loathe his name, Samar is forced into an engagement with Gauri-his childhood sweetheart turned stranger. The Storm is fighting to keep his heart from melting; the Sea is trying to bridge a trench of ten years of silence and lies. Two brothers. Two destinies. One palace of mirrors where every secret is a heartbeat and every kiss is a battlefield. In the Sheesh Mahal, trust is the most expensive commodity... and the price of love is paid in blood. A Little Rambling... "This story is a heartfelt tribute to the legends that shaped my imagination; certain characters and arcs are lovingly inspired by my favorite works. I carry their essence forward in this new journey of my own. If you recognize the ghosts in these mirrors, know that they are here as guests of my heart." (An Alternate Universe retelling written to explore these characters and their dynamics through a healthier, different lens.)

    "Le storie sono sempre state così, Calliope. Vengono ricordati quelli che fanno più rumore. È così che va il mondo." Per secoli, Calliope ha vissuto all'ombra di questa certezza. Come Musa della poesia epica, il suo unico compito sul Monte Elicona è sempre stato quello di ispirare i canti gloriosi dei guerrieri, ignorando la scia di sangue e le lacrime dei vinti. Tra l'apatia immortale dell'Olimpo e le rigide geometrie imposte da Apollo, Calliope si sente prigioniera di un canone che celebra solo la distruzione, convinta che nessuno sarà mai abbastanza folle da sfidare le regole degli dèi. Finché, nel silenzio di una notte come tante, una corda vibra nell'etere. È l'invocazione di Lysandros, un aedo itinerante di ventun anni che non chiede la gloria di Achille o il bronzo di Agamennone. Lui vuole dare voce agli invisibili: alle donne rimaste a raccogliere le macerie, ai soldati terrorizzati, ai dimenticati dalla storia. Colpita da una curiosità a cui non sa resistere, Calliope infrange ogni divieto e scende nel regno dei mortali per incontrarlo. Tra passeggiate clandestine in riva al mare e segreti sussurrati a fari spenti, tra la Musa e il cantore nasce una complicità segreta e pericolosa. Ma la verità è un'arma a doppio taglio, e gli dèi non tollerano che un uomo osi guardare dietro il velo del loro potere. Quando l'eco dei canti di Lysandros inizia a far tremare l'Olimpo, Calliope si ritrova davanti a una scelta drammatica. Può una Musa proteggere un mortale senza condannare se stessa all'oblio?

    Prince Luca has one purpose in life: to be a beautiful, silent bargaining chip. When his parents arrange his marriage to the predatory King Eamon-a man who sees him as nothing more than a collectible-Luca does the one thing he's always done. He runs. With only his horse Willow and a precious flowerchain tiara, he flees across the border into the wild, northern kingdom of Varruryn. There, hidden among ancient pines, he finds a white house covered in purple flowers. He thinks it's abandoned. It isn't. Evreux Ferrox was once Varruryn's greatest warrior. Now, he's a monster-a hulking beast cursed by a witch's vengeance. For ten years he has lived in isolation, watching a magical waterlily lose its petals one by one. When the last one falls, his humanity is lost forever. There's only one cure: true love. And Evreux stopped believing in love the day he buried his heart. But when a terrified, furious, achingly beautiful prince stumbles into his house, everything changes. Luca is not what he expected. He's a storm of defiance wrapped in silk. He's not afraid of the beast-he's afraid of the cage. Trapped together, they clash. They burn. They heal. Luca sees the man beneath the fur and claws, the broken warrior who fights bears to save him and collapses at his feet. Evreux sees a boy treated as an ornament, who reads poetry and wears starlight in his hair. But the petals are falling. King Eamon's soldiers are hunting. And loving a beast means sacrificing a prince's heart. When the Waterlily Falls is a scorching hot new adult gay fantasy romance where a soft scholar and a scarred warrior find passion, redemption, and a love worth fighting for. But time is running out, and the last petal is ready to fall.

    The mansion was never abandoned. Everyone in Blackthorn Hollow knew the story. Hidden beyond the forest and swallowed by endless storms stood a forgotten estate no one dared approach. Some claimed it was haunted. Others swore something far worse lived within its walls. Ophelia never believed the rumors. Until the night a violent storm drives her through the mansion's gates. What begins as a desperate search for shelter quickly becomes a nightmare when she discovers she cannot leave. Trapped inside the sprawling estate with its mysterious owner, Ophelia finds herself at the mercy of Victor-the cold, arrogant man who seems to know far more about her than he should. Beautiful and terrifying in equal measure, Victor guards countless secrets behind his sharp tongue and endless walls. The most dangerous one? He's the beast that surrounds the legends of the manor. Exiled centuries ago for defying his own kind, Victor has spent years alone, cursed to watch the world move on without him. He has no interest in a stubborn human who constantly challenges him, disobeys him, and somehow finds a way beneath the defenses he's spent lifetimes building. But legends speak of something called a Fate. A bond so rare it occurs only once in a vampire's existence. A soulmate. And according to every ancient law Victor has spent centuries trying to forget, Ophelia is his. As strange feelings begin to grow between captor and prisoner, shadows lurking beyond the estate awaken. Ancient enemies are searching for something hidden within the mansion's walls, and Ophelia may be connected to it in ways neither of them understand. Now, Victor must choose between protecting the human who has become his greatest weakness or losing the only person fate ever intended for him. Because some monsters are born. And some are created by love.

    Well, well, well. Did you miss me? I can spot a couple of new faces lurking in the back, so I suppose introductions are needed. I'm Kalliope Aoidós, a Book Jumper, and thanks to my family's spectacularly inconvenient curse, I've once again found myself trapped in an adventure. The odds of dying a horrible death? Alarmingly high, as usual. Just the way we like it. What can I say? I have standards. In a time of ancient gods, warlords and kings. A land in turmoil cried out for a hero. No, wait. That's Xena. I love the drama but we need one or two adjustments. Let's try again. In a time of the Cauldron and the Mother, of High Lords ruling their courts, deadly bargains, and the King of Hybern brooding over conquest and destruction, the fae people cried out for a hero to spare them from slaughter and an absolutely catastrophic plotline. At last, there came Kalliope, the mighty Book Jumper, forged in the heat of stories and questionable narrative decisions. Power struggles, reckless passions, political schemes, betrayals, ancient secrets, suspiciously attractive enemies, and enough emotional damage to keep therapists employed for centuries, all would be met with relentless sarcasm by the one woman who alone had the power to change the world. Over the top? Absolutely. But read my adventures first and then tell me with a straight face that I oversold any of it. Copyright 2026 AnemoneMarino. All Rights Reserved.

    Within the Walls, history remembers soldiers, monsters, and the line between them. But not the girl who walked beside them - unseen by fate, untouched by prophecy, shaped by a fire she never asked to carry. Nirae Keller has survived the Underground, lived by the Saelith pursuit of truth, and learned to read the world by its smallest fractures. When she joins the Cadet Corps, she expects hardship. She expects blood. She expects fear. What she doesn't expect... is the boy who burns. Eren Yeager carries a brightness she recognizes - relentless, unsettling, familiar in ways she cannot yet name. As the world begins to unravel, Nirae becomes a quiet witness to his rise, his fury, and the unseen moments that history will later forget. Dreams flicker. Fire teaches. And every choice - even the small ones - leaves something behind that burns. **A canon-compliant companion novel to Attack on Titan - told through the eyes of a girl who sees the truth long before the world does.**
