The Inbetween is a tale about the Guardians- those stuck between life and death who serve to protect the living- and Amelia.

Just a few months after turning twenty Amelia was betrayed by her childhood sweetheart and murdered by his new bride. She found herself in the Inbetween- A place between the living world and whatever lies beyond-  under the guidance of one of the oldest Guardians remaining- Apollo. Amelia is his last recruit before he's permitted to follow his wife and son. 

But Amelia can't let go of Dylan. Can she face new duty as a Guardian of the living when she's still wounded from her own life? Can Amelia learn to live and love, now that she's half dead, in a way she never allowed herself during life?

And can Apollo finally start to find a way to be alive in 'death' once more?

Realm Of Gods: Empress of Chaos  by mars45hall
3 parts Ongoing Mature
Synopsis Amelia was once an ordinary girl on Earth-until the day her fate was rewritten. A cosmic rift tore through reality, pulling her into the unknown. Lost in the infinite abyss, she should have perished. Instead, she transcended. Chosen by chaos itself, she became something beyond mortal, divine, or eldritch understanding-the Primordial Goddess of Chaos. From The Void Beyond Existence, she watches. She does not rule, nor does she guide-not yet. But she knows all. She has seen civilizations rise and crumble, gods ascend and fall, and the echoes of a war that shook the very foundations of reality. Long ago, an Ancient War tore across existence-a war so great that its truths have been buried beneath myths, lost in time, and rewritten by those who came after. Demons, gods, angels, dragons, elves, beastkin, and mortals clashed in a struggle that shaped the very fabric of reality itself. The war ended, but its true consequences remain unseen. From the remnants of that conflict, new races rose to power, forging realms of their own. Kingdoms, empires, and divine dominions flourished in the aftermath, unaware of the deeper truths that lie hidden beneath their foundations. They believe themselves to be the rulers of their own fate, blind to the forces that still linger in the shadows. But whispers persist-of something beyond gods and mortals, of a force that predates creation itself. Some call it myth. Others, prophecy. And in the darkest corners of existence, a cult whispers secrets long forgotten, waiting for the day when the old gods return. And Amelia? She watches. She has waited long enough. Fate is moving once more.

Starwitch by OwenTyme

Home, safety, and a place to belong - they seem so easy to find, at least for everyone but Amelia Blackwell and her sisters, who run from accusations of witchcraft at every turn. It started so simply, with a book. No one might have predicted that a book apparently filled with pictures of newts might lead to so much trouble, but The Book of Newts is no ordinary volume detailing the taxonomy of amphibians. The magic book reveals its true nature only to Amelia, at the age of ten, teaching her advanced mathematics, science and engineering - subjects she would not otherwise have been exposed to. Ironically, she and her sisters are accused of witchcraft for having built a horseless carriage, because to the ignorant villagers, there's no difference between magic and science. They settle in a new land, only to find the same breed of persecution. In an unusual ray of hope, they're told of a distant kingdom that openly accepts witches, but shortly after they settle there, the light at the end of the tunnel turns out to be an awful house fire surrounding their gilded cage: they're drafted into the local military, because their new nation uses witches as living weapons. The sisters accept the idea that peace will never be found on the ground. Looking to the stars, Amelia builds a space vessel powered by magic and steam, to carry them to a brighter future, hopefully without the strife that's always followed them. Unfortunately, the people of the stars have their own worries: an ancient, undead pirate queen, who consumes the souls of powerful witches to extend her own life. The Dead Queen takes Amelia's sisters and leaves the magically-weak engineer to die, all as a sick form of sport. Will Amelia survive long enough to overcome this greatest of all threats and rescue her sisters, or will they become fuel to feed the waning magic of a woman that should have been dead centuries before? Content Warning: This novel includes some violent and traumatic scenes.

✥ W h e n t h e r e i s l i f e , t h e r e i s d e a t h ✥ - UNDER EDITING - It was back then at the time of the Goddesses when she was born. Death, it's an inviting word that everyone tends to avoid. To accept it is nothing but a fleeting dream for you, no one dared to embrace it. Foolish, foolish Hylians. They think so badly of it. When underlying hatred filled a certain Hylian, Darkness was created. Whoever thought that the Darkness had a past? That someone was no one else but you. When you got bored, however. You decided to have a little fun. You are a manifestation of hatred, pain, and evil. You are an entity incapable of feeling sorrow, nor joy. And most of all, love. But when you struck a wrong move, a certain man got involved in your schemes. You didn't expect it to happen. Not at all. (Link x Reader)
