The Second Generation: Journey to the Golden Kingdom by Lexi_RT

[BOOK ONE] Over half a century ago, the world was introduced to Elementals -- a new race of humans, gifted with special abilities to help restore the Earth to its former glory. Now, they rule kingdoms scattered around the world, using their gifts to help their societies. But now, it is coming time for their children to take over...and they could use some help...to say the least. This story centers around Renee Starling, Princess of Novaria and daughter of the late Queen Nebula and King Atlas. Her childhood is nothing but a foggy memory, but after her coronation, bits and pieces begin to string together. After learning about the tragic murder of her parents, Renee sets off to the Kingdom of Valon to avenge their death and save the hostage Prince, in perfect fairytale fashion. Except, Renee's life is not a fairytale, and in real life, it is much more difficult to save a Prince than the books make it seem. Discovering life altering secrets and facing moral dilemmas that concern the safety of her own kingdom, she teams up with Prince Chase to begin a new wave of Elemental intervention -- The Second Generation. And this is only the beginning...

Between the Sea and the Sky || ATEEZ!PIRATE AU by AJGrahamWrites

Stories of Captain Hongjoong and his crew of misfits have been circling the Aithelon kingdom for years - stories of violence, mischief, thievery, destruction - inciting fear, or sometimes curiosity, within the citizens. Twenty-four year old Ari Rothchester is part of the latter group, intrigued by the adventures Hongjoong and his crew embark on, wishing wholeheartedly she had that kind of freedom. Instead, she is betrothed to an older man as the final act of her parents hiding her very existence. But when her soon-to-be husband sets his sights on her younger sister, Evelyn, Ari unleashes magic she has kept hidden most of her life. Now deemed a dangerous enemy to the crown, Ari escapes the confines of the castle walls and runs directly into the notorious pirate captain's path. Quickly, Ari will learn if she was right to be intrigued by this band of pirates or if she should have learned to fear them instead. TWs: Violence - including blood, gore, assault, decapitation, torture. Attempted SA - the scene is brief and vaguely detailed. Child Neglect/Abuse - including physical, mental, and emotional. PTSD Brief moments of fatphobia ***Credit to Tilly xoxo (@mathildascarlett) on TikTok for the amazing character descriptions of the 8 members and for allowing writers to add on to her creative genius***
