A fairy tale of the son of a Duke who would rather become a musician than a knight in shining armour. This is a story about family karma, suffering from parental expectations and healing through true understanding.
The storyline of 'The Two Owls' is loosely based on a 19th-century fairy tale from Posen (former Province of Prussia). The title of the original is 'The Travelling Singer and the Earl's daughter'. The original has a popular theme of a damsel in distress and a predictable outcome: the travelling musician releases the wealthy daughter from her suffering and wins her hand in marriage as a reward, while the wicked witches are killed.
'The Two Owls' is woven around a different message. This is a contemporary fairy tale about the son of a Duke who is suffering from a mysterious illness. A travelling musician comes to the rescue in this story as well. He also gets rewarded by the wealthy father. But the greatest reward lies elsewhere, and everybody wins.

Amongst the Waking Dreams
Nymeria Verne has always loved fantasy books. She loves the mystical lands, the fantastical creatures, the happy fairy tale endings...but what she loves most about them is that they are nothing like the real thing. Nymeria was raised in the land of faeries, constantly visiting the mortal realm with its urban cities but never understanding them. As a human living among fae, she has grown up always knowing that she is not pretty enough, not strong enough, not ever enough-for who could compare to the ethereal fae? She doesn't belong among either the faeries or the humans, and yet she loves her home and is desperate to find her place among the Seelie Courts. Despite the beauty and draw of the faerie world, there is a sinister undertone to it, and Nymeria knows that she can never be safe as a fragile human there. Not even her strenuous relationship with the faerie she refuses to call 'father' could help her. Her only chance of security and belonging is to one day come of age and become a faerie's bride, but at seventeen years old Nymeria refuses to accept marriage as the only option. In her search for her own path and independence, she stumbles across a prince of fae that offers all the solutions to her problems. She becomes his servant and agrees to spy for him in return for protection and a place in his court when he becomes High King. As a mortal, Nymeria can do something the fae can't: lie-a trait that the prince sees an opportunity in. Along the way, she meets a mortal boy, Collin, that was raised among fae just as she was. As her reluctant feelings for him grow, he has her questioning her choices and what it is she actually wants. Perhaps leaving the land of fae would be her better option... But her prince has no intention of letting her go.Concluida

Nova's Universe
This story is a sequel to my first published Wattpad story: The Irreplaceable Charlie Weasley. Like Book One, this is a long one, spanning over 37 years of Charlie Weasley's life with my OC Nova Blackwood. It's everything I couldn't give them in Book One and more. The Irreplaceable Charlie Weasley was the story of how they got together. Nova's Universe is the rest of their lives. This story is a Family Sequel with more fluff than one can manage. The family living their best life with only ups and an occasional down to make it just a tad more realistic. Showing through chapters how they go about life, how they handle every curve life throws at them and most importatly: how they love each other. "I know I say this all the time, but you make me so incredibly happy." He pulled me into another hug, burying his head in my hair. "Thank you for making my dreams come true," I whispered against his chest. This story has 3 parts: Before. After. The Rest of Their Lives. I don't own some of the characters mentioned in the story which belong to JK Rowling.Concluida
