assassin king magic pirate princess rebel revenge war warrior

Book One of The Ruins Series
***
Decades after the enforcement of the New Religion and the banishment of magic, The King knew the only way to truly rid the world of the "monstrous" magic wielders was to take the Kingdom of Thane, home of the mighty and diverse led by a seemingly all powerful family with abilities beyond belief.

When The King and his army came for Thane, The Royal Family laid down their lives in a useless attempt to protect their kingdom. The few that survived the slaughter were sent to work in deadly mines anywhere The King had already conquered and talk of The Fallen Kingdom was forbidden.

Once the storm had settled and the people were forced to accept the loss of their last hope, it was revealed to the public that although The Fallen Family had five members, The King only had four of their heads.

Destined for Vengeance ✔️ by MarjorieK64

*Book 2 of the Destined Series* The clock is ticking for Ryleigh. Duty calls, and she knows she has to leave her mate and new-found friends to return home. Thing is, she doesn't really want to. Jade goes wherever Ryleigh goes. That's their unwritten rule. So when Ryleigh insists on staying at Midnight Moon, Jade has little choice but to stay with her. She trusts that Ryleigh will come to her senses eventually, but she soon starts to realise that perhaps Ryleigh won't ever want to go back. And perhaps neither does she. Staying, however, means turning away from vengeance. For fourteen years, revenge has been the sole thing on Ryleigh's mind. She doesn't know if she can give it up. She doesn't know if she wants to. But if she doesn't, it will kill her. The shadows of the past have sunken their claws deep into the both of them. If they want to be free, they'll have to turn away from convention, from duty, from loyalty, and even from each other. And even then, freedom is no guarantee. *Updates on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays*

Reach {Book One of the Deathly Consequences Series} by MadameBitch01

[Warning; This book has plenty of foul language that sometimes borders on obscene, a couple of drool-worthy males, a smoking hot MC, and a storyline that will probably make you cry. *Run on sentence/warning done*] Thana Kage has been on the run for nearly half of her life. Hopping all across the world for five years and waiting for the time when people have forgotten she ever existed, Thana finally returned to make a new life for herself where it had all began. For three years, the plan went along well. She gained a new...friend, made her debut in a public school, and even procured a steady job with a solid income. It was all going so smoothly that Karma just couldn't help but bite her in the ass again. The Shade Brothers, the infamous Quad that Thana herself had once been apart of so long ago, have arrived to put a kink in Thana's well-maintained plan. She thought she had forgotten them. That they had forgotten her. They didn't forget nor did she. Que karmic ass-biting. *This is a slow-burn RH story with four hunks and one kickass female who've they've promised the world to while she keeps it all spinning. 40,000+ words so don't be deterred by the shortage of chapters.* {Apologies. I'm terrible at describing my story but by no means terrible in story...I think? Semi-good? Half-good? I don't know 😅 Anywho, give it a chance or a whirl and let me know what you think! P.S. This story is still in the editing stages so if you spot anything kinky let me know and I'll edit away! Happy reading :)}

The Prime Of The Outcasts by timelesslypink

-REACHED #252 IN FANTASY ON 17/09/16- Credits: @Electrama for the cover! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Magic is not something that is out of our control. It lies within us, embeds itself deep inside our hearts and looks upon its master for directions". ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ You would never think of a small unfamiliar town such as Tarmonty to hold anyone special. Not a working-class community with no gold nor silver to spare. Not a town with hay roof cottages and dead plant life. Well that's what you might think. That's what the local residents in Tarmonty suspect as well. But they couldn't be far from wrong... When a group of criminal masterminds return to the town in order to complete their set task, the townfolk take cover. But they don't understand - they never will. That organisation aren't after the penniless souls - they are after the magical beings. They want to suck the magic out of every last supernatural person in hope of gaining full power over the world. That's why it's important young fifteen year old Serena Pavock stays safe. But how long can she protect herself from the organisation for? How long can she go without telling anyone (even her family) that she is not all she says she is? Join her, as she battles a new realm far from home where she must eventually choose between doing what is right, and what is easy. Discover the secrets that lie in a whole new world, that Serena will have to try and escape from before it's too late.

The Titan of Beltar by ThomasFenneyMather

When humanity's last colony ship reached Al-Vedroon, they thought they'd found a new home. The locals weren't so keen. Fast-forward a thousand years, and against the backdrop of a decaying technomagic dystopia, a lowly Sorceress becomes embroiled in an epic plot that will shake the foundations of society and put all the world at risk. She believes her destiny is to be the Saviour. Others have a different idea. *** This is a complete novel of 23 chapters, and I'd love to hear your comments and feedback so I can make it even better. I will endeavour to post one chapter every friday as I finish my second edit. Also if you like it please vote and share with your friends! Thanks very much, Fen :#)

The Reckless - SAMPLE by elysemason

PUBLISHED Hence I am taken by the royal family who wants me dead most in the world, generally called "The Reckless" because of their stupid choices. I was a freak child, but I wasn't a freak until everyone else like me was brutally killed. No one really knew who I was, and that's how I intended for it to stay until I was caught trying to steal from the most prolific royal family in documented history, also one of the most hated royal families. It was especially terrible for me; not only was I the second most notorious criminal in Southern Hilton (my partner was the first), I was the girl people had scoured two countries for and given up on finding. Oh, and the whole image I had of the family that had destroyed mine was about to be forever changed. # Completed Awkwardly fits into fantasy, science fiction, and romance, so please just bear with me on the genre;)

|Breach Of Us |Ultimate Edition| BOOK 1| TRILOGY|COMPLETE|16+| by steferine4eva

Monsters Are Created By Other Monsters. Sou & Isabelle, A set of eccentric and unhinged twins with erratic elemental powers has to set aside their differences, control their evergrowing power and win a war in order to protect the only place they call home their academy and other gifted people from being hunted by the beast. - What you're about to read doesn't matter because a sinister force lurks beyond the great graveyard that protects the institution of, for and by the gifted! The first thing you need to understand about this story is it stems from a place of really deep mistrust and an unforgivable betrayal. That's an angry theme. But that all of that changes when we realise there's a lot more to this ever-expanding story! If there are Witches in this universe then obviously there are Witch hunters to just finish them off. There's a rich history or a back story where almost 20 years ago the hunters gathered and removed all existence of witches with elemental magic (Controlling Earth, Fire, Water, Air & Spirit ) but only two survived. That's when the book jumps in to follow the path of those survivors. Um, there are factions of offensive(Elementals) and defensive covens(Guardians) and then there's the elements of epic love, love that consumes the people involved and of course what's love without a little danger. - Thank you so much if you've read this far. I deeply urge you to binge read the book and decide for yourself whether it's unputdownable or not. Thank you so much by the way dear reader. By reading this book you are supporting a plus-sized lgbtqiaap+ community model/writer who has seen nothing but struggle and blatant discrimination everywhere.

Daffodils and Hyacinths (Book 3 of the Forgotten Truths Series) by Contrastgaze

"One small incident can ruin or change a person's life - Now imagine a storm," Dusty winds spit at Sun'Tribe and her people. Cramped, multiple families are forced to huddle in one of the ruins; the only remaining proof of the original four tribes that used to stand. "Unifying us all is what should make us less insecure about ourselves, but our differences are what makes each one of us unique; special," In Sun'Tribe, everyone is the same. No traditions, no religion, no abilities, no culture, not even the way someone dresses themselves can be different. Dull, brown clothes, with hair cut down and pulled back in a simple manner. Difference is only for their Leader. The supreme ruler who never goes hungry, and lives in a large palace just for herself. It isn't until two lowly commoners take in the last of the outcasts, that their world sees a future of life again. ~*~ Written by the beas-TEAS, @EChO11111111111 (old acc: Echo__IsNoFurry) and @Ripplestream11 ; also credit to our friend who is not comfortable sharing her name (As of right now, Echo's account isn't working, AGAIN, so check both for updates) You don't have to read the other previous two books of this series to understand this book. "Forgotten Truths" is more of a backstory-based book, for the old tribes and some of the characters, which takes place a little over a decade before "Daffodils and Hyacinths", and the main details to understand this book are in "The Place where Dreams Fade," but if you're new, you should be caught up after reading 'TRIBES AND RULERS' and the Prologue. Updates might be a little irregular depending on our schedule We all hope you choose to give "Daffodils and Hyacinths" a go! NOTE: This book is not a fanfic, nor does it have any relation to "The Last Airbender" or "Legends of Korra". We definitely do see how it can be related to that, but we did not intend for that to be the outcome. Thank you!

Come and meet a young girl who fell inlove with her enemy in persuit of her brother's murderer. But little does she know that the family she has is just a facade. Will she fall or rise above it all? _Something about him seemed off. I was about to say something when he began to talk. "Tell me, what's going on in that pretty little head of yours?" "Excuse me!? You called me for this?" I gestured to the both of us. "I don't have time for this. My family is-" "Waiting for you?" The man cackled. "They are fooling you." My eyes widened at that statement. My heart beat sped up. I wanted to talk but couldn't find the words. "Sweetie, the people you are gladly calling parents AREN'T your parents. Your so called mom isn't a day over twenty. Your dad-he's nothing but a phony." By now I was crying Justin a River._ Read more to find out(I wrote this story as a sequel to the first book I wrote...unfortunately I lost it. It was called *A passion for revenge* ) Don't hesitate to vote, comment and share. I'd love to know what you guys are thinking❤it is also UNEDITED.

Blood and Thunder by KyleWilliamUrban

You've just woken in the woods, away from everything you know. You're dazed and confused, unable to comprehend what's just happened. As you are coming to, images flash before your eyes of the last few days. Your parents were taken by the police, you were forced to run, to leave everything behind, to save yourself and your sister. But she isn't here. You panic and look around, you stop. You remember. She too was taken, you are alone. For now. This is what happened to Alexander, his life has just been turned upside down. The year is 2415, the world has both evolved and devolved. It isn't how people imagined. Flying cars, robots in every house, telekinetic pencils. No, they are only in comic books. Self driving cars. No robots in houses, but workhouses instead. Telekinetic pencils... that's possible, if you are gifted with the power of telekinesis. There are dark truths hidden behind closed doors, that only few know. Truths that if they got out, would bring the downfall of the government. A government that has been deceiving people for generations. But they haven't been as careful as they thought, because 100 years ago, one guy found out their secrets. 100 years ago, one guy started the rebellion that would bring about the end. From burning books, rewriting history and breaking human rights, this government will stop at nothing to make it seem that they are doing good. But people have had enough, the secret came out before. It's only a matter of time until it happens again. This time by a group of people that no one expected. Together they work to find out the truth, but things have gotten worse over the last century and this may not only bring around the downfall of the government. Armed only the powers they were born with, the group do everything they can to discover the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. But many have tried and failed, do they really stand a chance? Alexander doesn't think so, but his main concern is finding his sister, Rosia.
