"A dark blue sky. It slowly filled my vision with no stars in sight."
SARAH J. MAAS *
A young and terrified girl locks herself away from interaction and from others after finding out about the magic that has apparently always been apart of her this whole time, but the worst part is that she finds out in a sickening way. Left alone to nothing but her books, she re-reads a certain author's series who describes characters with the same pointed ears and powers like hers.
She remembers fantasizing about these amazing creatures called the Fae and always wishing to be like them, the thought triggering a sickening realization in her. She IS High Fae. A High Fae rookie no less. Auburn is this rookie's name and she is struggling to find out more about her from the limited amount of words in the books of Sarah J. Maas. She begs the gods to grant her more knowledge about herself, and even begs the books itself to help her.
Finally, after so long, her pleas are heard by the book; but the books will not be teaching her about the Fae way, not by a long shot. Instead, the books send her spiraling into the world of Prythian without her even realizing it to learn from the real pros. And no, I'm not just talking about normal Fae; we're talking about the High Lords.
Auburn, being sent into Prythian, is suddenly turned into a human by the books while still being able to use her magic, at least inside her mind of course. Confused as to why the books would do this when the whole purpose of coming here was to be taught how to be a Fae, she finally realizes the books antics.
It wants to be rewritten.
The books threw her into the storyline to hopefully stop things before they happen and let her benefit in the process as well. Now, the real question is: will Auburn be able to stop the words from being written as they should be? Will she be able to stop the pages from being turned? Will she be able to re-write the whole series?
Will she, Auburn, be able to answer the book's beckoning?

The Night Knows My Name (ACOTAR)
When Sierra is brought under the mountain by the Attors after being the sole survivor of her village, she believes it to be pure bad karma. Survival is nearly impossible when you're the only mortal among creatures that despise your kind and see you as nothing more than entertainment. Her chances of escaping Amarantha's mountain seem nonexistent. But when you've lost everything that once mattered, you have a choice: let it destroy you, or turn it into something greater. Sierra seizes her chance to escape-even if it means risking her own life-refusing to be anyone's plaything, least of all a Doll. Then she encounters Rhysand, a mysterious fae who always appears at Amarantha's side. He torments her, tests her, and seems just as dangerous as the mountain itself. Yet there's something in his actions that doesn't quite add up-why does he keep her secret to himself when he's supposed to deliver it to Amarantha? In a world of deceit, danger, and impossible choices, survival might mean trusting the one who seems most untrustworthy.

Eternal: Azriel
Eternal: (adj.) Lasting or existing forever; without end or beginning Athanasia never complained about her situation. She never felt like she had the right to. A random event leads her to befriend a small boy. A boy that she believed she would never see again. His situation was heartbreaking, she knew that there are others that are more unfortunate just like him. However, this one encounter changes everything she expected of herself, gave her freedom when the world only wants to swallow her up. --- "Why are you doing this? Why are you befriending me? Though we met five hundred years ago, why do you still bring me into your life? So much can happen in that many years but instead of staying with your friends or finding other things to do, you're with me. Why?" I ask again. Though I don't like being so forward, I can't help it. I'm scared to hurt him. He shifts his gaze to me. His hazel eyes gleam into my blue ones as if he knows something that I don't. "You're right. I had five hundred years, five hundred years to stay with my friends and five hundred years to find other hobbies." He pauses, taking in breath. "But I had five hundred years without you, we only had two weeks together. And those two weeks were the best I've ever had. That's why I want to continue them-with you, Athy." --- Disclaimer: All ACOTAR characters and plot belong to Sarah J. Maas. My characters and scenes are my own work.Complete

Shattered Wishes ((Watty's 2015 Entree))- COMPLETED
I took a deep breath and told myself that Christian didn't notice anything about me, but, what if Lissa does? I can't seem to shake this feeling of her not treating me the same way she always does if she sees me like this. I felt the atmosphere thicken with shock, hate, and above all sadness. They were all coming through the bond. How could I compete with telling her a lie when I knew how she felt? What if she turns me away because I shut her out for the past two months? "Before anyone says anything I think we should say Rose had her reasons for leaving and is here to stay, right?" Christian asked. Breathe. Just breath. She needs to see you. "Why did you leave?" Lissa asked "I had a mission." She looked me up and down and shook her head. "It's true! My mom and I were assigned to protect a guy over in Turkey." "Yeah okay. I guess that's why you wouldn't talk to me for four whole days then just up and disappeared!" Tears shown in her green eyes and I hated that I was hurting her so badly. "Lissa. Please. I can't tell you anything else. " "Save it Rose! You know I did everything just to find you and I couldn't get a single trace! You left me when I was in a vulnerable state, Rose! " "Lissa don't turn this back to you! It's not about you! Everything isn't always about you! Yes, I shouldn't have left but I did. What do you want me to do? Apologize over and over? I think I'm already doing that!" "You shouldn't have left and not tell me!" She yelled. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Plot: Rose had left the Academy, say what!? Well, two months prior to leaving, Rose had found out some horrible news that would ultimately shift her world forever. The more she keeps it all in the more it all will tear her apart.

Runaway
I ran, and I ran, and I ran, trying to get as far away from the mansion as possible. I was too weak to shift, but my determination kept me running. The house disappeared from my line of vision, and I was soon surrounded by greens. I didn't know where I was going, and at this moment, I didn't care. I was officially a fugitive. Angry screams followed by howls echoed through the forest: they noticed my absence. I let out an airy laugh. I was a runaway, but I was free. Finally free. -- [Completed + Under Major Editing] Some comments that I really appreciated: "please continue. it sounds really interesting!!!" ~GalaxyWolf78 "AHSJSKZUZIDNANSN?? *^^^^^*" ~Sarah-Senpaii "MORE MORE I NEED MOAR OF MY DAILY VITAMINS" ~Sarah-Senpaii "Love this book" ~DisneyisEternal "Awwweeeeeeeeeee sooooooooo ccuuuuuttteeeeeee aaannnddd AWESOME!" ~CrownofSpades "Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes!!!!!!!" ~dustbunny101 "SAVAGE" ~TrustMe_ImFine "omg no way" ~dimatabbara "*sighs* " ~lolitscherish "Lol.

Star Child
"She was a child born of darkness and light, the union of two different worlds. A true child of Night, they called her- born at midnight under a full moon during the longest night of the year. But she was more than the darkness she was born into. Just like the stars shine against the night sky, so she shines with a light that pours onto everyone she loves. She is the light in my darkness, the star in my sky. She is everything to me. My mate. My equal. My queen." Willow was a unique case- the child of a High Fae mother and an Illyrian father, she was born with a power never before seen, a power that earned her the nickname of "The Banshee". Willow always felt caught between worlds, never really belonging anywhere. In Windhaven, she was a cross-breed female with wings broken in a childhood accident. In Velaris, she was first a latchkey kid of a broken mother and then the sole guardian of her little sister. But when she's kidnapped in the middle of the night and taken to another Court, she knows her quiet life in Velaris is over. Rhysand was a broken male- he'd never truly recovered from what he went through Under The Mountain. But as the High Lord of the Night Court, he puts on a brave face, showing strength to his Court when he feels only a step away from falling apart. But as Hybern starts to march on Prythian, Rhysand puts more and more on his shoulders until it feels he might crumble. Not feeling safe enough to share his pain with anyone, not even his Inner Circle, he continues to feel more isolated and alone. But then everything changes during the High Lord's meeting. Everything changes when he sees that white-haired female wearing a golden mask. And just as the stars and moon bring light to the night sky, so Willow would come to bring the light back into Rhysand's life. And maybe, just maybe, she would help save all of Prythian in the process.
The Other Silver Lady
The daughter of Persinia has been alone all her life, tucked away in a forgotten corner of the imperial palace with her sole maid as she spends her days reading books and attending a mandatory ball once in a while. Life is quiet for the most part...that is, until one day, she stumbles upon a book in the library that predicts the future! And this one says she will die when a lost princess shows up in a few years and all of her siblings will kill her to protect their new, favorite sister! Now our princess realizes that if she wants to live, she has to be strong enough to do everything herself - wield aura to counter dark ones, wield magic to protect herself from evil wizards, and know alchemy to protect herself from a poison-happy consort of the emperor keen on making sure her son is the last one standing as heir to the throne. In an empire waging an eternal war against the darkness just to exist, our princess finds herself picking up new skills, new friends, new enemies, and a lot more importance in the palace than before all while trying to just make herself unkillable so she can live silently reading books. Will she be able to unravel all the mysteries of the world that she wants to, or will all of the tasks the emperor asks of her and the troubles she creates for herself keep her from existing in peace? Will she be able to escape the palace before the "silver lady" of that book appears, or is her death inevitable? Well...Mephie doesn't really care, to be honest. She just wants everyone to stop bugging her so she can finally finish the latest book she's been reading...especially those annoying knights...and, well, everyone else too.
A Court Of Past And Present
|| Highest ranking: #9 in protection ⚔️ #1 in A Court Of Thorns and Roses🌹 #7 in Sarah J Maas 🧝🏼♀️ || "What?" Rhys asked, frowning at Mor. She shrugged, "by the looks of it, your going to be a father soon." Darkness exploded through the room. Cutting out my vision, it seeped through the windows, blocking out any visible light. Calloused hands pressed down against my shoulders, holding me in place. Soothing talons scraped down my mental barriers, trying to pry them open. I could feel his presence through the dark, feel the warmth of his body as he stood in front of me. The darkness subsided to uncover the violet stare of Rhysand eyes gazing down at me. Talons scraped at my mental walls once more before he spoke down our bond, Is this true? I looked to my mate, "Yes." He receded a few steps, stumbling over his words, "how?" "Well, when a mummy and a daddy love each other very much-" "HOW?" He snapped, cutting me off. Sighing, I relaxed my wings, exhausted from today's events, and let them slide to the floor. "A witch put a spell on me," I muttered, unable to make eye contact, "one which I think changed the year I was living in." *** Feyre is the Hight Lady of the Night Court. Living out her life, she thought it was going to be a prefect happily ever after with her only struggles being breaking the news to her mate about her pregnancy.
