The Forest of Lights by Purplestar222
16 parts Complete Mature
Long ago, in a kingdom ruled by silence, two princesses dared to speak. Thana and Khalida were sisters bound by blood but divided by destiny. Together they formed the Guerrillas, a secret band of warrior women fighting for justice in a land that denied them power. But when one sister dares to enter the forbidden heart of their realm-the Forest of Lights, a place of both refuge and fear-a single prophecy brings secrets to light and fractures the bond they believed was unbreakable. In a world where light can deceive and darkness can guide, only the truth within their shattered hearts can save what remains. ~~ The story is finally complete! I'd appreciate your reads so much. ❤ The second book of the series is a work in progress (but may never be finished due to my co-writer disappearing) Note: no, this book has nothing to do with The Bringer of Light, the titles are accidentally similar. I'll try not to put "light" in my next book title lol TRIGGER WARNING: suicide, violence, mental health issues

👑1 in Queen Series👑 (Warning: Dark themes & sexual assault) I will have you...all of you, Esmerleda," he said as his eyes raked over my body. I tried to get away. His other arm wrapped around my waist, pulling me closer. "No you wont!" I spat angrily at him, my body gradually welcoming in his warmth. I hate him. "I will," he claimed, his smile making the scar on his face look even more fierce. "I will have your body, heart, soul. Everything," he growled, as I watched his eyes zero in on my lips. "Don't you dare!" I panicked. I shoved with all my might at his chest. He let me go quickly, making me almost fall into the table. "Don't you ever touch me again!" He chuckled as he grabbed my glass of wine. "Till our wedding night." ******* Esmerelda is devastated when the Lycan kingdom demolishes her own. Seeing almost everyone she knows and love killed right before her eyes, she expects the same fate.

She is forced to become their Queen, their beast of a King's wife, and forced to live among them.

Ryu: Ash Beneath The Crown by Quietdreamer52
62 parts Complete Mature
In the shattered realm of Elysium, two powers divide the land. The radiant Lumia White Bloods, born of sanctified magic, and the Blood-forged Tenebrae Night Bloods, masters of monsters and beasts. Their centuries old feud has left kingdoms crumbling, skies darkened, and blood soaking the soil of a dying world. To end the endless war, the Kingdom of Elysium calls for a queen one powerful enough to unite the fractured clans. But the path to the throne is forged in agony. Young women from every province born if Esteemed Clans are cast into The Hollow Proving, a deadly maze where reality bends and only the ruthless survive. Those who emerge face the final trial the Sanguine, a brutal arena where contenders wield magic, monsters, and madness for the crown itself. Among them is Vesperine, a girl marked by secrets even she doesn't understand. She bleeds pearl white, dreams in flame, and carries a power the world has forgotten. When she unleashes something ancient-a creature of dark majesty and untamed loyalty-she draws the gaze of eyes lurking below, a man as dangerous as the beasts he commands. But in Elysium, nothing is as it seems. Loyalties fracture, monsters remember, and even love can be a weapon. As truth and deception entwine, Vesperine must decide whether she will be the kingdom's salvation or the reason it burns. Blood will spill. Crowns will break. And beneath the ruins, dragons stir once more. For readers who love The Hunger Games, Red Queen, and Fourth Wing-welcome to Elysium. Welcome to Ryu.

The Orc's Consort I: Born of Blackwater by EM-Albright
32 parts Complete Mature
IMPORTANT: This manuscript is a rough draft - widely unedited. There may be grammar, spelling, and pacing issues. I've been working on this story since 2023 in my original manuscript and hope to one day publish the final, extended version. I could see him grinning out of the corner of my eye. He was enjoying this far too much. "Just do not ever scare me like that again, Jasper," I fussed. He winced as I moved the cloth across his ribs. "Or what?" he toyed. I stopped and glared at him, stammering, trying to think of something clever. "I-I'll... I don't know, but I'll think of something." Before I knew it, Jasper had his arm around my waist and pulled me into the tub with a splash. "Jasper," I gasped. In a world where humans and orcs have been at war for centuries, 22-year-old Lady Brenna of Blackwater Hold is sent to the Northern Orruk Horde - an unheard-of act. Her father, King Corvus, pledged her to the chief, Jasper Bloodborne, to save his own life. Were these orcs the beasts her father taught her to fear? She soon learns how wrong she was - and that her time in the Northern Orruk Mountains will change everything she thought she knew about loyalty, courage, and desire. ⚠️ Content Warning: This story contains sexual content, mentions of SA, miscarriage, abortion, violence, and gore.
