TEASER:

     I sat in front of the fountain, eyes closed, listening to the sound of the water. I sighed silently. This was the perfect place to think-
      My thoughts were interrupted by a presence.
      "Please leave me." I spoke without opening my eyes.
      "Sorceress Sithra." A female spoke with frustrating confidence.
      "I said leave me." I rose my voice and opened my eyes. Turning around, I saw a girl in a beautiful red dress with a golden crown decorating her head of brown hair. Princess Maria.
      "I need to speak with you." She planted her feet.
      "What do you want?" I grumbled. I needn't show any respect to a sly blackmailer.
      "You will not speak up to me." She commanded. "I am Princess Maria."
      "I will do what I wish." I rose to my feet. "If I remember correctly, you are in need of my help."
      She stiffened. "The Luanth royal family is not an enemy you would desire..."
      "What can you do? Order guards against me?" I mocked. "I could wipe out a hundred with one wave if I wanted to."
      "The queen has told me that you are here to break this curse, not killing off our men."
      "In case you weren't looking, I was in the middle of doing just that." I gestured to my spot. "Now would you kindly explain why you have annoyed me, or have you merely come to threaten?"
      "I have come to tell you..." She inhaled a breath. "That my mother is dying."

None knew of her power or what she would do in the future if she became queen, so the throne was given to the second son in hopes he would save their house from possible ruin. Over the course of her life, she was neglected by her mother for being different like the "demons of the west." She began to harden as the years passed her by and the abuse she endured intensified until one day, she snapped, killing someone.

"Beware that you become not the very monster you ought to slay." In a world where magic holds the essence to life, there is still no telling where fate determines your place will be. When the Cardinal Empire of Nyrhaea and its time-forsaken creatures declare war on the human world, a dark entity in the guise of a human, a grieving swordsman, an electric-manipulating technocrat, an unhinged fire-breathing boy, and a magic-less girl whose very existence defies the Laws of Mahika, venture to stop the prophecied, apocalyptic world war. All the while dealing with the complications of entering adulthood. With the grotesque inside him growing hungrier by the day, threatening him of the looming hour to fulfill destiny's bidding to be the key to the end of the world, the entity resorts to a mysterious girl who could only be his last hope to attain freedom from the shackles of fate. An antidote given not without an undefined price. But how long can he endure to bury the roots of the calling past? And what are they willing to risk to liberate a world beyond saving that hangs in the state of trust and sanity? *~* Mature Contents: gore, violence, and subtle depictions of abuse and substance use.

Ms. Nine Tailed Fox by JewelOd
28 parts Ongoing Mature
I loved a man. Blindly, foolishly, selflessly, pathetically, and sinfully. I changed for a man. From a broken girl who feared even her shadow to a detestable villainess whom everyone cowered before. To give him the world, I took it away from the other. I believed, no, rather deceived myself that I would be the one to stand beside him. However, I was wrong. Outrageously wrong. Because, to him, I was nothing more than a pawn, a disposable. "Is this the end," she whispered as her heart rate rose violently as if to explode at any time soon and her breathing became shallow gasps. 'Ah, I really am a selfish person. After everything I have done to you, I still wish to be born as your daughter again. Will you forgive me, father?' She thought as a single tear left her shimmering golden eyes, along with the last breath that she took... ... "Till the end, you never looked at me," a man muttered after seeing the woman, who had robbed him of everything that he cherished, lying lifelessly with her enthralling eyes that shut eternally. He walked to her side and slowly caressed her cold cheeks before saying, "The world has become mine, but I have lost everything, Seraphina." That night, prince Reyan Crevaria usurped the throne, killed his younger brother, emperor Reagan Crevaria, and conferred the late Grand Duke Amaris Callenso's only daughter, Seraphina Callenso as his empress. A/N: This is a rebirth story about one very fiery girl. She is sweet like sun-dried dates and soft like cotton wool to her family but, to her enemies, even the goddess herself cannot salvage them from the little she-devil.

" please don't " He pleaded, his voice cracking with despair. Tears streamed down his face as he dropped to his knees, clutching at the air as if trying to grasp the fleeting fragments of her presence. ...................................................... In a world where magic is everything and humans are considered tragic beings, born without any magical abilities and belittled for it, young Emilia's life took a tragic turn when she was separated from her parents and captured by faeries. Forced to serve as a maid in the king's palace, she did everything in her power to remain invisible, avoiding the cruel whims of those around her. One day, her efforts to blend in failed when the king's seventh son, a dangerously handsome and charismatic prince, became inexplicably fixated on her. As his attention grew more intense and dangerous, Emilia feared she would become his plaything, trapped in a life of misery. Just when hope seemed lost, a mysterious wizard approached her with a dangerous offer: a chance to escape the palace and reclaim her freedom, but at a steep cost. Emilia must decide whether to accept the wizard's bargain and face the unknown, or to remain in the palace, forever at the mercy of the prince's desires.
The Witchline by Abbbbb89
33 parts Complete Mature
A generation of witches emerged in a world where two factions, the Druids and the Witches, held power over the Earth and its elements. Gifted with the ability to harness the powers of Light and Dark, they dedicated themselves to honoring the Goddess Mother and the natural world. They celebrated life, abundance, and the cycles of nature through festivals and rituals. The Goddess Mother blessed two witches with extraordinary power, one with Light and the other with Dark, and bestowed upon them a book containing all the spells necessary to honor her. With this book, they could even cheat death itself. However, they were forbidden from using their powers for evil. Meanwhile, the Druids delved into the dark side of nature, making pacts with gods of the afterlife who demanded blood sacrifices. The Elder Druid, consumed by envy, plotted to steal the witches' power. Spreading lies about their wickedness to mortals, the Druids convinced them that only witch burnings could lift the curse. The Elder Druid's greed knew no bounds, and he sought the Goddess's book, whispering more falsehoods about the witches. Fear gripped the land, and countless innocent men and women were burned at the stake until the witch hunts finally ceased in the late 17th century. The two High Strega, the last of their kind, devised a plan to protect their magic and revive the Witchline. The Goddess revealed a prophecy: when a daughter of Dark and a son of Light possessed the book, the Witchline would be restored. They separated, hiding their true power and passing the book from one High Strega to another across generations. Until now...
