"Drawn together by fate, tested by darkness-will their bond survive the rising storm?" Celestia Pendragon is no stranger to danger. As a seasoned adventurer, she's battled her way through cursed ruins and labyrinthine dungeons, her resolve unbroken by the shadows that linger in her past.

As ancient forces stir and betrayal festers in the shadows, their paths entwine in a fight for survival.

Until I felt nothing at all." Eira Gellert's world comes crumbling down as her sister is forced to leave for the army.

Divine Shadows by StormKissed

-ˋˏ ༻𖤓༺ ˎˊ- -ˋˏ ༻𖤓༺ ˎˊ- -ˋˏ ༻𖤓༺ ˎˊ- Seren, born of divine lineage with the essence of the sun coursing through her blood and divine fire in her soul, stands apart from mortals of her realm. Living in solitude, she fulfills her sacred duty, guiding the world through the turning of the seasons. Marcel, a god-blessed prince with the power to rule, has earned his right to the throne, but the horrors of war have kept him away from his kingdom for years. Now, with the battles over and talks of peace in the air, Marcel returns home to face an even greater threat-the Black Wake, a force born from the remnants of a fallen god, now ravaging his land. Marcel has one request, a favor long promised to him by Seren before the war began. Despite her reluctance and better judgment, Seren answers his call. With her own agenda, she steps out of hiding to face the darkness alongside him. As they confront the corruption and unravel its origins, the tension between Seren and Marcel grows. Their relationship becomes a dangerous dance of attraction and resistance. Marcel's commanding nature clashes with Seren's defiant spirit, but their undeniable chemistry draws them closer. Their powers-his dark, her divine-complement one another in ways neither fully understands, bound together by a prophecy neither can yet decipher. -ˋˏ ༻𖤓༺ ˎˊ- #maturethemes #darkfantasyromance #basicallyjustsmut (18+!!!)

Crescent | ✓ by TheConfusedTurtle

For the fae, magic is everything: status, power, wealth, honor. For Vera Reite, a fae born with no magic, it is a shameful reminder that she will never amount to anything. Whispers of a fae-killing monster begin to circulate the Moon Court. It lurks in the woods, feeding off the mana of its victims. Those that go missing and find themselves at the mercy of the beast are never seen or heard from again. Fear quickly takes hold of the fae court; it's only a matter of time before their whole world is destroyed by this creature. However, it offers Vera a glimmer of hope. When she learns of it, she ventures into the wood to kill the beast, believing that she will be able to absorb the magic it has stolen. But the woods are as dangerous as the beast, and Vera soon finds herself lost. In a stroke of luck, she comes across an old manor deep in the forest where a strange boy is sealed away. If Vera wishes to slay the beast, she will first have to uncover the secret of the manor and its prisoner before it's too late. 𝐀 𝐟𝐚𝐞 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐦𝐚𝐠𝐢𝐜. 𝐀 𝐩𝐫𝐢𝐬𝐨𝐧𝐞𝐫 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐚 𝐝𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐥𝐲 𝐬𝐞𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐭.

Generis by ChiLuvving

╞═════𖠁𐂃𖠁═════╡ "Stay here. I didn't tell you to leave." Rehemïd moved his hands behind his head, leaning back in his chair. He raised an eyebrow and pointed at the sofa she just stood from. "Sit back down." She looked at him, suddenly confused why he wanted her there all of a sudden. The office atmosphere thickened with tension, and Hestia knew she should just sit back down, but she acted otherwise. "Why?" "There's something I wanna tell you. It's important." ╞═════𖠁𐂃𖠁═════╡ There are a lot of arising issues in Generis. Bloodshed is being dished onto a silver platter to those who are considered "different". Many of the prayers of the people go unanswered, and the fingers turn to the regīi, holding them as the scapegoats. Meanwhile above, there are bigger problems at hand... As the connection between the Gods and the people below rapidly declines, is there any prayer that can go answered? ╞═════𖠁𐂃𖠁═════╡ ┏WARNING: ︱Graphic descriptions of violence. Mature | themes.

Icelyn, the princess of the Winter Realm, is being used as a tether to unite the Winter and Summer Realms in an upcoming war.

To complicate matters, Icelyn learns that she is the fated mate of the King of the Night Realm, a wicked and unseelie fae that will do anything to claim what is rightfully his... When he comes to collect her, her entire world is turned upside down. Her fate was questionable in the Winter Realm, but how will she ever survive in a court of nightmares and ruin? *** She was mine, and it was about time they learned that. I have sat by idly for years, knowing she belonged to me, and yet, I did nothing about it. I did not want a mate, they were a weakness I could not afford, but now they were trying to join her with another, and there was no way I would allow that.

Wicked Winter Book. 1 by AshtonMarie

{Completed} Highest Ranking: # 1 in Fantasy (01/28/17) Book. 1 My blood boiled at the thought of one of them in our streets, hidden in plain sight, perhaps even by one of the kids from the orphanages. Would it murder innocent human children? You bet. Would it even think twice about gutting a starving child? Never. What could do this, you're probably asking. But it boils down to one single word. One word that made anger I hadn't known I possessed, roar to life like a pissed off lion. One word that sent a cold chill spider-walking down my spine. Faeries. ------------ Eve Scotts's world is divided by magic - The Order of the Seven who rules over her kingdom with a steel fist and the murderous faeries's she'll be forced to fight when she turns eighteen. Eve is a dueler, a human that dabbles in the elements to fight in underground scuffles for some extra coin to feed her fellow orphans back home. But she has a secret weapon: She can wield ice magic - a magic that is only reserved for the High Witches at court. But she makes a mistake. She exposes herself. Rumors are spreading of a small orphan girl who can wield the power of ice, and it isn't long until the Order sends one of their own to snatch up the bounty. In exchange for the secrecy of her special gift, Eve agrees to participate in the Witches Academy, where humans are taught to wield the power of the elements and become powerful witch soldiers for the Order's disposal. As Eve is drawn further into the Witch world, she risks everything to learn more about her power and her lineage. With her frozen heart melting for the Count of Night, Sebastian O'Neill, Eve is thrown into a cyclone of love, betrayal, and family drama she hadn't even known an orphan could inherit. Soon, Eve must decide: Is love, or survival more important? Word Count: 102,000.
