WARNING: I edit as I go. Read it once and it will likely be totally different the next time.

This is the kind of story that is best not to know much about before you read. There is only so much I can tell you about it without ruining it. I can tell you that it takes place in another world. A world that is not our own and yet is. The story follows a young girl living in a village, but the village is attacked by monsters. She and a boy named Yakov are the only survivors. With no where else to go, they embark on a journey to find Yakov's missing father. But it becomes so much more than that. It becomes so much greater and so much more complicated. I will tell you now that this story is not for the faint of heart. It is not for your average book browser or romance seeker. This book... Is for the dreamers.

The Chosen One Chronicles: Where the Light Meets the Dark by Antonioschoenegger24
13 parts Complete
High school student Anthony Scalese was having a normal day when his friends decided that they wanted to attend a party. After bumping into Emma, the girl of his dreams, in a not-so-positive way, he realizes that the day isn't going well. It gets worse when tragedy strikes, and his friend takes his own life at that party, forcing him into a depression that not even his little sister can help him out of. The only thing that keeps him going is his excitement for a school camping trip that is coming up with his best friend Edward. After a little mishap while hiking down from their camp site, Anthony and his major crush fall down the side of the mountain and get stuck, then get chased by a gun-wielding maniac into a cave. After what seems like days, they make it out of the cave alive, only to find out that they have ended up in a new world: a world where nothing makes sense. There are giants and leprechauns and shapeshifters...but there is also a great darkness that is out to destroy everyone-and everything-that it sees. Young Anthony finds out that it is up to him and Emma to save this new world with great powers that he had no idea he had, and make it home before anybody suspects a thing. Told from a first-person point-of-view, it goes into detail about the thought processes of a young man who has everything to lose. The protagonist deals with real life struggles every day, including the death of his friend, his dad who left him at an early age, and the pain of seeing his little sister being hurt by her boyfriend. He also has to take charge and become a hero for those who can't against an unwavering bully in a far-away world. My book blends fiction with reality, as the reader follows along in the life of a shy high school student who gets thrown into many situations he must overcome as he finds out who he truly is and why it is him who needs to save the world, while keeping the reader guessing every step of the way.
Bruised, Broken... Chosen by nfh_hello
4 parts Ongoing
Her father thought he could cheat me. Borrow what wasn't his, disappear, and leave nothing but a trail of debt in his wake. Men like him never learn-there's always a cost, always someone left to bleed for their mistakes. He thought it would be him. Instead, it's her. His daughter. At first, she was nothing but a message. A way to make him suffer, even if he never came back to see it. I broke her down the way I break everything-piece by piece, scream by scream. I wanted her fear, her pain, the ruin in her eyes every time I came close. She hated me, and I fed on it. That's all I believed in: control, power, the reminder that I own what others abandon. But somewhere between her sobs and her defiance, she changed the rules. She fought me, and I should have killed her for it. Instead, I wanted more. She cried, and instead of silencing her, I listened. She looked at me, even in terror, and for the first time in my life I couldn't look away. I don't believe in love. I never have. Love is weakness, a lie people tell themselves before the knife comes out. But she... she's different. She's sharp where she should be soft. Brave when she should be broken. She makes me hunger in ways that no amount of blood or vengeance ever could. I meant to ruin her. To make her pay for the sins of her father. Now I want to claim her as mine. Not because of love-no, I don't use that word. I don't trust it. But because she drags something out of me I thought was dead. Something dangerous. She wasn't supposed to matter. But she does. And if I have to chain her, break her, and rebuild her until she finally sees me the way I see her, then so be it. She'll be my wife. My possession. My salvation. Even if I have to destroy her first.

This is the second book in the After Robin series. If you haven't already read the first one I suggest reading that one first as it could get confusing if you haven't. ................................................................................ Emmalina and Callum haven't seen each other in two years. With Callum being in battle school and Emmalina living so far away, it's only expected. Samantha still comes every Saturday to Castle Locksley for the weekly delivery of bread and such what, bringing Emmalina news of the what's been going on around Castle Landly. ................................................................................ Emmalina has been living at Castle Locksley for two years and has been having the time of her life. She's learned many skills and has been so caught up in studies that she almost forgot about the whole incident that happened nearly two years ago. She still doesn't forget Callum, but she doesn't expect to see him ever again. And guess who shows up at her doorstep, desperation written all over his face. Something has happened to change both their lives forever. Could the fact that Callum is an orphan be wrong? Is there still a wall between Emmalina and Callum? Will Emmalina realize that everything Callum has been telling her is true?
