Guardian of Life (Jack Frost x OC) by Vigilante24

Belief The strongest thing in the world. It can give someone hope when everything seems lost and a feeling of power when you think that you can fight no more. Belief can make anything stronger, more alive and truer. From belief is how many religious gods got a name, how legends and stories are being formed. It all starts with a name and one believer. The light spreads, from person to person and that name gains power. Slowly, it is more believed in and that name gets a form, then a face and then existence. This is how the fairy tails came to be. How the protectors and the enemies of the children appeared and how they exist up until today. However, just like in every situation, there is a catch. A small area that is not white or black but grey. There, no side can be taken, and no rules apply the same. In the case of fairy tales, you have the light side with the Guardians and the spirits; tasked to protect their children. On the other side, you have the Boogieman and those who want to harm and terrorize the innocent bright souls of young children. And in the middle, in the grey zone, you have a single lonely figure with a task no one else wants, a task that makes them receive hatred and fear instead of admiration and love. And that person carries it without a word of complaint. That person is Thanatos but nowadays, she goes by Grim Reaper...the Guardian of Life and the outcast of the Big Five.

Strange Things by Lisset130

Monsters have always been the bad guys. Fairytales are nothing more than just bedtime stories. This is how the world functions. Or at least this is how the world has taught you to think. This might be the reason why earth is under the rule of modern science. Nobody ever takes the time to just stop and take a look around... Because of modern science, nobody believes in the impossible anymore, everyone has the instinct that if you can't see something it's not there. There's a truth about fairytales and monsters, but if your ever in the mood to know, the only way to find out...is to fall down the rabbit hole.. "Come with me." "Where?" "A place where I go to escape reality." "Your insane!" "Obviously." "I'm not going anywhere and you can't force me!" "I wasn't forcing you, just trust me and I promise you'll understand everything." "...." "Well?" I extend my hand and she slowly takes it. "There's no going back. You'll never be the same after this.." She nods her head understandingly and I pull her into a world of madness and wonder...

Tracking the Wolves (Madison Joshi and the Wolves series- Book 3) by FangirlHere1234

Have you ever wondered what it is like to be in a fantasy novel with werewolves? Spoiler alert: It isn't as great as you would expect it to be. Sure, you do get to meet werewolves but you also get that one deranged villain who is hell bent on making your life miserable. Maddy finished rescuing her best friend so things should have gone back to normal, right? Wrong. Unfortunately, there is still a power-hungry, unknown villain out there who is trying to capture Maddy. As if there isn't enough drama in Maddy's life, turns out that Maddy's mother may be keeping secrets from her too... 〜♡〜 This is the third book in the Madison Joshi series. I recommend reading the first two books before reading this. 〜♡〜 Edited by @taehyungie_lover

A Nagas caring nature (Naga! X Child! Reader) by PhoebeClark4

A poor family life with abuse after abuse after abuse. It felt like there was no escape but when the two people who gave you life were about to make you expire too soon, you ran into the woods. Deep within your Paleolithic chromosomes, you knew the only way to get further away from them was forward through the seemingly endless terrain of trees, grass and animals. Knowing you reached an end, you were lost. No one to save you. No one to protect you. No one to love you. Until now... Mythology is truly a wonderful thing to learn but while they are classified as just myths, hence the name "mythical", it is believed some still exist among us. One in particular is terrifying in theory. A Naga. A Naga is a monster with the body of a very very large snake and the uper torso of a human. They are believed to be very dangerous and cold hearted. But that has now been proven wrong. Are they indeed dangerous or caring and loving? WARNING!: CONTAINS MENTIONS OF CHILD ABUSE AND HAS SWEAR WORDS AND MENTIONS OF VIOLENCE AS WELL!

Dszahdh - A Newsies Oneshot Book by E_J_Hawthorne

A oneshot compilation for the broadway version of Newsies that began with someone else's typo (here's lookin at you, @omg_im_totes_biii): There are lots of different X readers within; enter at your own risk. There is cringe galore. If you enjoy these stories, go check out @DaydreamShimmer and her works. She's my brother and she writes amazing stories!

When Stars Fall by BellOfSilence

** When a wish brings devastating consequences, Pan must join forces with a fallen star to stop the walking dead before Neverland sinks into eternal darkness. ** "We can sail away tonight on a sea of pure moonlight We can navigate the stars to bring us back home In a place so far away We'll be young; that's how we'll stay Every wish is our command When we find ourselves in Never, Neverland." - Neverland, Zendaya - Everyone knows the stories and adventures of Peter Pan, the boy who didn't want to grow up. But hardly anyone knows that this story did not end the way it is told. After his most significant victory and worst loss, the boy who never wanted to grow up has to give up what is most important to him. What he does next, however, not only changes the course of Neverland's history but could also mean the island's demise under the two stars. So the future of this dreamy isle rests once again on the shoulders of Pan - and those of a fallen star. **** ONC2023EN SHORTLIST/HONORABLE MENTION The NanoWatt Longlist 2023 - Highlights 6 x WATTPAD FEATURED **** 🥇 1st Place Sunflower Award - Fanfiction 🥇 1st Place Laurel Wreath Award - Fanfiction 🥈 2nd Place Phoenix Award - Fanfiction 🥈 2nd Place TCR Awards - Adventure 🥉 3rd Place Starlight Mini Awards - Best Title 🥉3rd Place Fluorescene Awards - Fanfiction

Classics Retold by Jayjay by Mx_Jayjay

The stories you know as you've never seen them before. Fairytales, Fables, Nursery Rhymes, and Literary Classics are all given the Jayjay treatment. Each tale is lovingly retold with new twists breathing new life into the stories you love. Each story is set within the same interconnected world but each story can be enjoyed on its own. Can you spot the connections? Disclaimer: I can't guarantee that a story will definitely be released each week. This is my aim and I plan to stick to it as best as I can. Since each story is different the first section of this story is a list of each story with the specific content warnings associated with it. I will update this list with each new story.

Tempest by LucyMangoXX

Sometimes, you believe you are the only one left. Sometimes, you feel that the choices you make move you further away from where you should be. Sometimes, there are forces out there that wrong you and you need to find a way to make things right. Sometimes, you need to face your darkest fears and go down a path that will lead you to a place you had never imagined you would get to. Tempest had the odds stacked against her when her family was torn apart by unknown assailants. For years she thought her family had been killed but when she discovered the truth she realised that there was so much more to their disappearance than she had ever imagined. A war was coming and she had no choice but to fight against forces that she had never thought she would ever meet. But with new friends and alliances, maybe there is hope that they will have a fighting chance. The Supernatural world was heading for a major face off and she would be caught in the middle of it. The only question was, what lengths would she go through to make sure she got her family back and get rid of a threat that could end the world as she knew it.

A Life Beyond the Mirror by nicoleadams13

What if all the myths are real? Monsters, witches, faeries. Well NEWSFLASH! They are. And I've been thrown into the deep end. Before I was a normal girl, well as normal as any 17-year-old can be, but after moving in with my Grandmother everything started to change. She wasn't as crazy as everyone made her out to be. The friends I made in school were different than the others and I fit right in. Even weirder, the elusive handsome stranger I have been dreaming about for the past 2 years is here, and he recognises me too. I just hope that the dreams that plague me don't come true. Otherwise, things won't end well for any of us.
