Fairy Logic (and Other Matters of Academia) ✓
Entry-level magic professors aren't supposed to be responsible for fixing the generations-long problems that come from a library haunted by fae. But when the administration sweeps the dangerous situation under the rug, Constance Wylf sets out to expose the truth. Armed with logic, a cart of books, and her personal-companion fairy, Constance is ready to storm the long-abandoned shelves. What she isn't prepared for is a tavern-keeper who's madly insistent on tagging along, especially since he seems convinced she's unravelling along the edges. Which is impossible. Unravelling, as everyone knows, is for people with emotions. And Constance Wylf is absolutely determined to keep any emotions she might have tied up tight. ~ * ~ Longlister in ONC 2025 Prompts 65 and 102 Main: What is science, if not magic governed by laws instead of emotions? Secondary: In a world where books are feared for their power to possess readers, one Scribe enters a haunted library full of cursed stories. The question is: will they leave the same person? ____________________ Cover © 2025 Avadel Ink Authorized solely on wattpad.com/avadelComplete
Peter pan's lost girl
Mermaids, beaches, fairies! this place is awesome. someone then snatched the book out my hands. "Mermaids? what is this crap?" I looked up to see Cynthia and her clique. "why do you carry this thing around with you all the time?" I stood up and held out my hand. "give it back." "why? it's not like you can read it, you're stupid." Her words didn't mean anything to me but those words are going to come back to me tonight and punch me in the face. "How old are you? aren't you like 16 and reading this children's book?" How long have you been here Michelle? Tears welled up in my eyes. I knew what was coming next. "answer me, hoe!" "10 years" I mumbled. "10 years and still haven't been adopted? that's sad. why are you still living? no one loves you. no one ever will. I bet your parents crashed their car on purpose just to get away from you." I had enough. I threw myself at her. I slammed my fists into her pretty face. then her clique joined in. I was outnumbered. Everything got blurry after the second kick. They continued and I blacked out.Complete
My Life Of Evasion
Passport? Check. Book of maps to every country in the world? Check. The world's best treasure hunting dad and the most incredible stepmom? Check. My amazing boyfriend of over a year and a half? Check! The same crazy guy who'd been chasing us on our last exploration and the group of other crazy people he's basically teamed up with? Ugh, check. And the newest member of our group, my baby sister Addy, who's going on her very first treasure hunt at the tender age of four months old? Oh, my gosh, check! Call me, Callie Landon, a complete fool and I'd have to totally agree. As to what type of fool, I'd let you know. I was a fool in love, a fool to do what we did every day, a fool to trust Agents Jenna Hudson and Chris Turner when they said that they had another treasure for us to find, one that's only known by the FBI and the government and hadn't gone public. And just what was that treasure? Well, we didn't know. And neither did they. It was apparently life changing, though, so I was guessing pretty big. Our group was going to be bigger on this exploration, that's for sure. And we were adding another, rather unexpected person: Sophie Barnes, who was Max's ex-girlfriend. This treasure hunt was going to be even more dangerous than our others. It was going to full of sneaking into government facilities in other countries, stealing priceless items that were supposed to be heavily guarded, car chases, near kidnappings...and enough dirty diapers to knock out a hundred men just with the smell. It was going to be one crazy adventure. But then again, it always was in the world of treasure hunting. (Book 3 in the My Life Series)Complete
