Margo Grisby just became the next victim of her small town's chilling disappearances. She awakens in the alternate world and vivacious paradise of Jamyria. But the beauty of the world masks an unsettling secret: it's been created by a Mark-a person who bears a symbol on their skin which grants them unlimited power. 

Unlike the other occupants of Jamyria, Margo is destined to enter. Every fifty years a man is gifted with a mark of power in hopes of destroying the gateway between worlds and freeing its people. This time, fate chose her: a sixteen-year-old girl. But regardless of gender or age, the people trapped in the world see Margo as their only hope for the next fifty years. The creator and queen of Jamyria, on the other hand, sees Margo as her latest threat and has ordered to have her hunted down. 

And Margo? She sees Jamyria as an escape from the nightmares she left behind in the real world, and deep down she's beginning to question if she wants to leave this world at all.

Alpha's Runaway Mate by TheAshleyDaniel
23 parts Ongoing Mature
Mirabel Rhodes lived a life in a boarding school that was situated under the ground. Never had she seen a ray of sun or a twinkle of stars but only heard about a world that existed above them in books. Her foster family prepared her and hundreds of girls for a deal that they were never told about. When she turned sixteen, they opened them for sale to the scientists and werewolves for experiments. Afraid, she took the chance that she believed was necessary to save herself and someday them, even if it could end her life. She ran away far and clueless until she accidentally trespassed the territory of Blood Moon pack. Lucky for Mira, the Alpha of the pack was on a run before pack warriors could find and kill her for a rogue. He took her to the packhouse, treated her wounds and gave her space to start a new life. For Alpha Maximus, she should have been a recovery case, but she was more than that. Mateless for a decade, he couldn't understand why he was getting attracted toward a barely adult human. She made him and his wolf feel things that they never experienced before. For two years, he had been in the shade until the night came to answer his confusion. His suspicion turned into reality when he smelt her and found out she was his mate. A human for a mate, but that wasn't the issue, the issue was mating season and him being on heat. Guess what could make her run away from the generous Alpha and turn him into a cruel, closed-off brute? And how would he react when secrets would unveil, truth start to unfold and attraction turn into a feral obsession?

Born with purple eyes, 18-year-old Mageia Unknown knows one thing, if she's ever caught, she could be executed because of it. Being the leader of a group of Strange youths living on the outskirts of the Kingdom of Ardania, she makes it her duty to take care of her family, no matter the cost.

The Awakening by NarrativeNest8708
8 parts Ongoing Mature
At 37, Cambry Keller has spent her entire life feeling as if something was just a bit... off. Her job, her relationships, her home-all perfectly ordinary, yet there was always a nagging feeling deep within her that she was meant for something more, something extraordinary. But nothing ever changed, and soon, she resigned herself to the quiet monotony of her life. Until the fall after she turned 37. In the span of a single autumn, everything Cambry thought she knew about herself-and the world around her-was turned upside down. Strange dreams begin to haunt her nights, filled with forgotten symbols and places she's never been, yet feels intimately familiar. Her body begins to change in subtle, unexplainable ways: heightened senses, a newfound connection to the natural world, and the inexplicable ability to influence the elements. As the leaves fall, Cambry uncovers long-buried family secrets that reveal her true heritage: a powerful bloodline with ties to an ancient mystical order. The dormant magic within her awakens, and Emily finds herself thrust into a world of enchantment, danger, and ancient forces vying for control. Her journey of self-discovery leads her to allies and enemies, both human and supernatural, as she grapples with the powerful abilities she never knew she possessed. But as her powers grow, so too does a looming threat. Cambry must learn to control the magic that now courses through her veins, or risk not only her life, but the fate of the world. In this transformative season, Cambry will come to understand that she is not just different-she is extraordinary. And the time for her true purpose has finally come.

**Alice in Wonderland meets Aladdin with a twist in this coming of age story** Alaia has been listening to the voices around her family's castle all her life. Even though she hears everything, one peculiar word always slips her mind... A word her mom whispers every time she is alone in her bedroom. On her eighteenth birthday, Alaia finally remembers this silly word and whispers it three times in front of an antique mirror. Gio, Gio, Gio. Suddenly, the surface ripples like water. Alaia panics and breaks the mirror before she is pulled into a dark dimension. However, the glass surface isn't the only thing that's broken: Alaia's heart is shattered, and its pieces are scattered across three different reflection worlds. To return home, she must visit each realm and mend herself...with the help of a djinn. But Gio's help comes at a price. -----✨🧞‍♂️✨----- Complete ~27,000 words -----✨🧞‍♂️✨----- Featured in: YAFantasy - April 2023 WattpadUrbanFantasy - April 2023 StoriesUndiscovered - May 2023 WattpadESL - May 2023 Fantasy - August 2023 WattpadAlternateUniverse - August 2023
