Born with glowing green eyes. Destined for rotten luck. 

Peasant girl Meya Hild was 'given' the opportunity to become a Lady. At swordpoint. By mercenaries. Engaged to a dying nobleman. Poisoned with one month to live. Tasked to loot a castle. In a kingdom running out of resources.

Little did Meya know this shenanigan would lead her across land and over sea, from a mountain made of sapphire to an island shrouded in spiral clouds, with masquerades, heists, kidnappings, shipwrecks, alchemy, romance, and an unexpected 'bump' along the way.

Let the misery begin.

Reincarnated as the Fated Villain by Palastyn_Chroma

COMPLETED | VOLUME ONE | It began as the usual flow for a reincarnated story... Aerra believed, as a young girl, that her second life was nothing more than just about legends and prophecies like any other; meeting handsome guys; and spending heart fluttering days of youth idly. But slowly... the web of fate spun into a vast tale of an adventure for the young clever Aerra in her journey to a realm where darkness and light elemental magus exists and her long golden sheltered life as a Duke's daughter is but a flawed facade. The darkness that lurks within her... the beckoning shadows... forged alliances and deceptions... and an ability that she never thought could touch the span of time. Join her in her quest TO DISCOVER the truth on what lies beyond the centennial rituals in summoning a Priestess; choosing a Familiar; and her inescapable destiny as the fated Fallen one. The story and adventure of a hapless maiden reincarnated for centuries begins! ___________________________ [Inspired by some fantasy RPG games I played and some animes/mangas I have encountered, admixing reincarnated novels as it's backbone.] ~~ ɪғ ʏᴏᴜ ʟɪᴋᴇ ᴀᴅᴠᴇɴᴛᴜʀᴇ ғᴀɴᴛᴀsʏ ᴡɪᴛʜ ᴀɴ ᴇʟᴇᴍᴇɴᴛ ᴏғ ᴀɴɪᴍᴇ, ɢᴏ ᴀʜᴇᴀᴅ ᴀɴᴅ ʀᴇᴀᴅ ᴍʏ ᴡᴏʀᴋ! ᴀɴᴅ ɪ ʜᴏᴘᴇ ʏᴏᴜ ᴇɴᴊᴏʏ!!~~ Date Started: November 21, 2017 Date Finish: January 19, 2019 Highest Rankings attained: (By category) # 10 in Action-adventure # 43 in Fantasy # 08 in Original # 01 in AgeProgression # 03 in Dark Fantasy # 08 in Villainess # 36 in Reincarnation # 05 in Journey # 01 in Shoujo # 02 in Timeskip ___________________________ [[Disclaimer: All pictures or videos used in this book is not mine, all credits goes to its respective creators/owners]]

The Unfinished Book✔️ by Melody_Alyward

One typical day I read a random book just to pass my time. 'Contract marriage with an attractive stranger? How does the legendary hero constantly appear when the helpless girl is in trouble? Is he waiting at the side for the precise moment to appear? And there are so many missing plots and elaborate descriptions. It's problematic to figure out from which era this book is because it's confusing. This is just so stupid,' I instantly thought before promptly shutting the book and placing it back. Seldom did I know, that night when I would go to sleep, I would wake up as the protagonist of that same book and it wasn't a dream. As the events of the story unfolds, I decided that I will not follow the plot. It's time to become a self-made women that works hard by herself. However I soon find out that perhaps I'm not the only one stuck in this book? And I don't know how the book ends so what will happen to me? Story about a girl who struggles to survive economically after losing her family and then ends up becoming the female lead of the book. She ends up falling in love with a guy who turns out to be trapped in the book as well. And they are not the only ones stuck in the book. Will they find a way to get out or stay trapped in the novel?

The secrets of what she was- of who who she was. Her mother's warnings always loud in her mind, propelling her to care about nothing but survival. And to keep moving was to survive. Until one day she has no where left to run and everything she has been fleeing from swallows her whole.

Unable to run, she is forced to face 'them' head on for she will never bow to the beings who never belonged on Earth to begin with.

Ever So Lightly- Book 1 by paisleypikachu

{COMPLETED} The stars disappeared seventeen years ago. A black night sky has mirrored a bleak existence for the people of Auros. The Gifted, humans with unique abilities to affect the world around them, have all but become extinct thanks to the dark reign of a usurper. And somehow Zephyr Elvy has managed to live her nineteen years in the blissful quiet of a small town next to the sea. Zephyr has always been content to keep to herself, and happy to live a simple, if uneventful, life. If only the universe had that in mind for her. Forced to flee the only place she has ever called home, Zephyr finds herself running through a world she has only ever read about, along with two soldiers who have deserted their posts to keep their consciences clean. With only a letter and a mysterious weapon as clues to why she's being hunted, Zephyr must face her own fears while discovering a whole new world of terrors at the hands of a queen she knows next to nothing about. Having never risked anything her entire life, Zephyr is forced to choose between apathy or action, hiding and keeping to herself, as she has always done, or taking a leap that could change the world she is just now getting to see. ***** Thank you SO MUCH for reading! I'm updating every Monday until this story is done, and I've been sitting on this one for almost three years so I'm really excited to finish it! I don't have any beta readers for this as I write, so please let me know if you notice anything, and I mean ANYTHING, that needs fixing! :)

The Dragon's Heir [Beta][Complete] by SnowInParadise

COMPLETE #1 in Fantasy #1 in Adventure #1 in Historical Fiction ---------- Sometimes, believing helps us to see truth. Other times, we need a little evidence to believe. But there is truth behind everything; every false manoeuvre, ever little lie...a small piece of truth is hidden. Just like truth is wound into legends too. Growing up best friend to the future King, Arabelle never really thought her life could go wrong. Whenever she wanted something, or needed something, she would get it. Then she lost her father at a young age and Arabelle was forced into a world of dresses, balls, and lies. Being a tomboy, Arabelle would have rather been out on her horse doing archery practice with her brothers. When Arabelle gets curious and sneaks into a forbidden area of the castle, she discovers a deadly secret: her bloodline is sacred, dating back to a legend surrounded by the one thing she knows not to be true. Unsure what to do, she gets caught up in a series of events that lead to her being hidden and whisked away from the only familiar place she knew. After making some unlikely allies, Arabelle sets off on a journey to find the legend of the last dragon egg. Fate has something big in store for her; will she be able to withstand the pressure of it all?There is one thing Arabelle needs to learn to survive this new place... Some things are more than a legend. ---------- © Isabella Espe 2013 - 2019 This is a work of fiction.
