Every day at noon, Alaric finds his wife in their garden. Every evening, as the sun slips below the horizon, Alaric loses his wife to a curse laid upon them, an old woman's revenge for being wronged by Alaric's father.
Every day at noon, Evalie suddenly appears in the garden of a man who calls her by a name she doesn't recognize. A man who seems to know more than he can say. Every evening, she is forced to go through an excruciating process as she vanishes, seemingly into thin air, only to reappear the next day in the gardens of the silver-eyed man she knows only as the King. She has no recollection of what happens to her between dusk and noon...
Even worse, she doesn't know her name.
Or why she keeps disappearing and reappearing.
Or why she can't remember anything at all.
What does the King know that he isn't telling her?

OUTLAWED
Elara, a young girl born into a broken world, where the royal family holds absolute power and mages-those with the ability to manipulate the elements-are hunted to the death. After witnessing the brutal murder of her father at the hands of the royal family, Elara's mother hides her daughter's identity, pretending to be the mage in order to protect her. But when the royal family learns of a new mage bearing a powerful mark, they arrive at Elara's home, and her mother sacrifices herself to save her daughter. With her mother's death haunting her and the royal family's forces hot on her trail, Elara flees into the woods, unveiling the magic she's kept hidden for years. In the depths of the forest, Elara discovers a hidden group of mages-boys and girls, families-each with their own elemental power: fire, water, earth, air, blood, metal, and ice. For the first time in her life, Elara is not alone. But her refuge is fragile. As the royal family intensifies its search, Elara must decide whether to stay hidden in the shadows or rise up with these newfound allies to reclaim her life and bring justice to those who destroyed her family. With vengeance in her heart, Elara's journey becomes a fight for survival, and a rebellion against the oppressive rule that has outlawed her very existence.

"Even better."- ~A tale of oaths, and the people who break them~ Cassia Aurelius is a thief, an orphan, and a girl who made a terrible mistake... she ate Fae food. Now she's trapped in a realm of beautiful half-truths disguised as mercy, where the price of survival is combat.

One with secrets that echo her own... one who leads her to a reclusive and broken Fae Lord who sees the darkness she hides. As war brews and ancient magic stirs, love becomes a weapon. Cassia must decide who to trust before she loses more than her home and freedom. In the Fae realm, looks can be deceiving.

Our Kingdom of Pleasure and Ruin
Asmi has always been taught the usual things that a girl her age learns while living in Elixir Kingdom: sit up straight, always smile, and catch an eligible suitor's eye. After the tragic death of her family and the destruction of her family's cottage, she is forced to move into a family friend's house where all she experiences is neglect and abuse. When her mom's oldest friend drills into Asmi's head "proper" manners, she is prepared to do just that: keep her head down and hide in the corners. She's off to a good start until one night of violence and stormy eyes, she gains the attention of Prince Kenric Haynes of Elixir. Kenric lives in the dark. As the youngest prince, he doesn't have many royal duties. And he likes it that way. As the kingdom prepares for his eldest brother's coronation and numerous balls and parties begin, Kenric is constantly seeking for the certain moments where he can slip back into the dark, secretly controlling the kingdom's not-so-legal doings and dodging desperate women that are dying to get him into bed. One night, Kenric finally escapes back into the shadows, however, it's not long until his peace and quiet is disrupted by a beautiful girl with long, black hair, hopeful eyes, and a smile and body that could kill. Who is this girl? Kenric doesn't know, but she's caught his attention and he will find her.![Muse [h.s.]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/238009251-256-k742844.jpg)
Muse [h.s.]
Golden Book Two Golden. My favorite song written off the album - the first song I wrote about her - Aurelia Moon. My golden girl. She's had me wrapped around my finger since the night we met. Our memories run on repeat in my mind everyday since I last saw her. She's the light of my life, my sun and moon. Only now, her gaze is not filled with light; her eyes are hard and glaring, and I'm at fault. My heart plummets and sinks in my chest but I force a smile on the outside. "Aurelia..." I say with a forced smirk. I love saying her name and I know she always loved hearing it. "Still my muse, even now." My heart quickens with hope when I see the goosebumps rise on her soft skin. Even after all this time. *mature and explicit content*Complete
My Fucked Up Fairytale
TEASER: "No fiancée of mine needs to learn how to fight." His breath flows upon the prickling skin of my neck. I close my eyes, involuntarily shuddering in response. "All you need to know how to do is satisfy me." "How exactly am I supposed to satisfy you?" The answer to such a question is obvious, yet, like the idiot I am, I still asked him. "Blood...and of course, other means." BLURB: When college student Cyra finds her life falling apart after a brutal breakup, she wishes for an escape-only to awaken in a realm filled with sword-wielding vampires, deadly elves, and more fantastical creatures.

Though, she has no memory of who she truly is -- only the name the King has told her. In the crowded, suffocating city, she struggles to think clearly, to remember something.

Yet, when Selene begins dreaming of a mysterious man with amber eyes, fragments of her memories begin to return. As her past slowly pieces itself together, she faces the question -- will learning the truth of who she is give her the strength to claim her freedom, or will it spell doom for herself and the kingdom she has come to call home?Complete![Golden [h.s.]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/235094889-256-k740794.jpg)
Golden [h.s.]
It's been a while since I've last seen him, and just the mere mention of this man's presence makes the blood in my veins sing. I can almost hear his voice calling my name. "Aurelia...." he'd slowly drag, his tongue licking his lips each time before pulling into a sinful smirk. "My muse...you have complete control of me, you know that, don't you?" I shudder at the memory, recalling the intensity of his green gaze. He'd always call me his muse, his inspiration. His golden girl. My mouth runs dry. I want nothing to do with this man; so why is it that my body disobeys me? Why is it that goosebumps rise on my skin at the thought of seeing him again? *mature and explicit content*Complete
Aurelia
Her name was written in golden ink, and nothing would ever be the same. Aurelia never imagined her quiet life would matter to anyone-until the Quill of Calling inscribed her name in glowing gold, marking her as chosen. Now she's a student at Crowned Star University, an ethereal academy hidden far from the world she knew, where future royals and magical beings are shaped into something greater. Within its velvet-draped halls, she finds freedom for the first time... and something else stirring-something forgotten, blooming slowly inside her. Her magic doesn't follow rules. It pulses with emotion, echoing fear, softness, longing. It reacts to dreams. To safety. To pain. And to them. There are whispers about the four princes-each one cloaked in power, mystery, and something she can't quite name. Wind, shadow, light, and stone. Their eyes linger too long. Their presence shifts the air. And somehow, without meaning to, Aurelia begins to belong to places-and people-she never thought would see her. But when a cursed book begins to pull on her soul, and a ghost starts whispering truths no one else dares speak, Aurelia must decide who she is: the girl who was written in gold... or the one who will rewrite the story entirely. * * * Contains age regression, mental health issues, graphic scenes, abuseComplete
