If we had to pick where to start the story, it would start with Abigail Bell. We're not going to lie and say there was always something "special" about her ever since she was little. She was just like every other fourteen year old. She wasn't extraordinarily pretty or popular, or talented or anything. In fact she was so incredibly ordinary, she was the last person you'd expect anything weird to happen to. But we guess she got lucky in her freshman year of high school (or unlucky, depending on how you looked at it).

IntoThe Dark
I learnt that there was something black inside everyone’s soul, but most of them had it buried deep within. Almost everyone — including me — preferred white instead. Even though the black could do wonders, it was equally detestable. All I wanted was to abolish the darkness that was threatening to besiege one of the hidden cities — which could later engulf the terrestrial sphere if it's not ruled out. Would I be able to do it? Could I fight the dark? Did I have it in me to kill the ‘dark one?’ I'd even give my life to squelch the Master of the dark, but what'll happen if my only love happens to be the next in line? Would I be able to love him after that? **I'll let the story unveil my unanswered questions.** And oh, the amazing cover of this book was made by @ThaiArt :)Complete![Those Who Return at Dawn - Book 1 - Lord of Thymos [Romantic fantasy]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/400177625-256-k264469.jpg)
Those Who Return at Dawn - Book 1 - Lord of Thymos [Romantic fantasy]
"There were many legends and stories about werewolves and vampires, dragons and elves, spirits and demons, but why couldn't he find any record about a being who lived, yet seemed not to exist in this world? Was this ritual dangerous? Summoning demons? Sacrificing his soul? Luther closed his eyes tightly. Deep down, he knew what his decision was. He needed an answer to his fifteen-year-long question." This is the story of two boys who awaken their divinities (a reaper and a sun god.) One was born with everything. The other lost the only few things he had. What will happen when the Flow of Destiny intertwines their lives? This is a story about salvation and being saved, about life and death, about exploration and adventure, about kinship, friendship, and love. Follow Luther and Aaron as they wander through the boundless Cosmos; strolling the magical market Mariana, diving into the silent depths of the Tranquil Sea, riding the Orion Express under starlit skies, visiting Sicily the city of blossoms and fruit, travelling the Heart of the Cosmos, crossing the wilds of Anasia, climbing the Tower of Tomorrow, and countless other realms where wonder never ends. What to expect: - OP MCs. - Fantasy worlds/food/species ... - Found family. - Slice of life. - Lots of cozy moments, yet the stakes are still there. - Slow burn romance (Strangers to friends to family to lovers, oblivious x oblivious.) - Cute pets. Imagine a blend of Harry Potter (a hidden magical world in a modern setting) and Percy Jackson (Descendants of Greek Gods) with a Ghibli vibe. Though told through young eyes, I hope this tale may also be read as a fairytale for grown souls: a heart-warming and wholesome adventure, with a hint of darkness and a pinch of sadness. Warnings: - Gay. No sexual content. - The story takes references from Greek mythology, Dante's Inferno, and Ars Goetia, but will add, remove, and modify many different details. Please consider this as an alternate universe.Complete
The Mystic Forest
In a universe divided, there were two distinct worlds, each unaware of the other's existence for centuries. One was the Human Territory-a world of cities, technology, and the mundane realities of everyday life. The other was the realm of the Creatures, a magical world inhabited by beings beyond human imagination. This world was home to mythical creatures, beasts, and beings who were part animal and part human, often referred to as Hybrids. These creatures lived in harmony with nature, their existence intertwined with the magic that flowed through their lands. Between these two worlds lay the Mystic Forest, a realm of legend and myth. Stories were told of a mysterious forest that connected the two worlds, but for the longest time, it was considered nothing more than folklore. The forest was said to be enchanted, its trees towering higher than any human could imagine, with whispers of ancient magic that could transport anyone brave enough to venture inside to the world of creatures. But, as with all myths, people stopped believing in its existence, and the Mystic Forest faded into the background of forgotten tales. That is, until one fateful day, when a group of friends stumbled upon a hidden portal deep within the wilderness on a camping trip-a portal that was rumored to lead to the Mystic Forest. They were all from the Human Territory, living ordinary lives until curiosity and chance led them to the heart of the legend. The group consisted of five friends: Amelia, the adventurous and strong-willed one who had always been fascinated by myths and legends; Alex, her childhood friend, loyal and protective, but ever the skeptic; Gabby, the bold and outgoing one with a passion for mystery and exploration; Lucas, the quiet and thoughtful one, who was fascinated by the unknown; and Sophia, the analytical one who needed proof for everything.Complete

Illusory
I'll never understand why he accepted me as his assistant -- me, a college dropout with the sense of a squirrel. I'll never understand why he won't teach me the magic I want to learn -- me, the stubbornly determined twenty-something who knows where he keeps his spell books. And I'll certainly never understand why he finally decided to love me -- me, the clumsy, stupidly playful girl who can barely handle staying upright in the box when he makes me disappear. I was just your average, failing college student until I met Donovan "Van" Tamerlane -- handsome, rich, and one of the most talented magicians of his time. But with his help, I became so much more -- and together, we saved the world. [Just to warn you, this is my novel from NaNoWriMo 2011, 50,000 words of it written in the first 12 days of the month. It's been edited, of course, but the bulk of it was still written in two weeks (and I'm not the best at revision), so please keep that in mind!]Complete
