A life spent on the run, Astra understands they are hiding to save her future and possibly her life.  But what 17-year-old wants to be stuck with their mom day and night jumping realms to keep them safe even if their mom has cool magical powers of a Blood Healer. 
     
    After being whisked away by Garreth, a reaper who claims to have her best interests at heart--even though he seems to act otherwise, she meets Lucian. With the latter being a handsome young heir to the lordship of her home realm creates its own problems. Like the vendetta Astra's mother has against his family.
     
    As she waits for her Blood Reading on her 18th birthday, she feels pulled in so many directions, torn between kingdoms, and realms, the love of an heir, and the safety of the rogue reaper.  She doesn't even get to choose her future since it will be told to her at her blood reading but that doesn't change what she wishes for in her heart.
     
    Can the desires in her heart change the outcome of her reading so that her future will be the one she wants and not the one she fears she is destined for?

"Everyone loves a good fantasy, but my life was turned upside down by one." What would you do if you had the ability to control the air? How about if you were suddenly brought to a world where, despite your powers, you're at the bottom of the food chain? On a fateful night, Max Walker finds himself summoned to Asterisk and contracted to Liliana Lockwood as her familiar. Forced to leave behind his life on Earth, Max begins a precarious journey into the unknown world of magic. Training as a knight, learning to control mana, battling rogue necromancers and even being mistaken for Duke Walker's son... it's just one thing after the next. But as if that wasn't bad enough, Asterisk, a world which subverts reality as you know it, may just have something to do with Max's own heaven-defying origin... and a secret that could leave the universe hanging by a thread.

Lost in the Creek by Astra_evil_queen
20 parts Complete
Have you ever wondered what it would be like to be in a magical world? Well, twenty year old Astra Holister sure as heck hasn't. She didn't believe in magical beings or anything related to that. But one day she finds herself lost in a creek, literally, and has to face a whole lot of magical things. As she was walking in the woods one beautiful day, she stumbles across a creek. Astra let her childish instincts take over and she decides to jump in. And instead of landing on solid ground, she falls through the creek. Little did she know that this creek, along others scattered across Earth, is a portal to this magic world called Morastar. Morastar is a world filled with magic mushrooms, poisonous forests, talking animals, and of course, corrupt monarchies. There are five kingdoms in Morastar, each one ruled by a descendant of the first king. But the kingdom Astra finds herself in is ruled by a horrible tyrant. Everyone thinks he's the best, but that's only because he's brainwashed them. As Astra tries to find her place in this new world, she finds her closest friend, Jake Thurston, a huge help. He helps her through what she needs and tries to sooth her troubles. Astra doesn't know just how much of a good friend Jake is until Leo Chaffman, Astra's best friend and crush from Earth, shows his face in Morastar. Filled with twists and turns and betrayals, Astra ventures on a chaotic journey with confusing feelings. Only question is, will she ever make it home? Or will she be stuck with the tyrant everyone adores and his "evil" brother?

Born with purple eyes, 18-year-old Mageia Unknown knows one thing, if she's ever caught, she could be executed because of it. Being the leader of a group of Strange youths living on the outskirts of the Kingdom of Ardania, she makes it her duty to take care of her family, no matter the cost.
