For every hero, there's a villain. For every wish, there's a curse. For every happily ever after, there's a not so happy ending...
At least that's what life feels like for Mal. From the moment she was born she's felt unwanted, being abandoned as a baby on another's doorstep. Being told she's a curse upon Lady Edeline and her horrible daughters, as she serves them, while they squander their dwindling fortune. Day by day, life is a monotonous drone of how she can serve the Lady.
That is until a beast attacks her in the woods, a huntsman begins his search for her heart, and a cursed castle asks for her help. As Mal stumbles her way through this new world of curses and magic, can she learn to be the hero everyone needs her to be, or will destructive forces from her mysterious past resurface and finish their attempt on her life from long ago?

To Be A Monster [COMPLETED]
When Prince Zackai comes to his coronation, his home is brutally attacked. He is forced to flee his home, or he would likely have been killed. But that's exactly what Victoria, a High Warlock, wants him to do. So, she hunts him down and curses him, inflicting him with a dark spell that ensures that he is forced to become a monster.

And now, Zackai and Eilex need to figure out how to help each other, despite the growing love between them. They're falling for each other, and it seems that Victoria knew that. So, now she's hunting Eilex, too. But Zackai won't let anything happen to Eilex. Or will he?Complete
Crescent | SAMPLE
For the fae, magic is everything: status, power, wealth, honor. For Vera Reite, a fae born with no magic, it is a shameful reminder that she will never amount to anything. Whispers of a fae-killing monster begin to circulate the Moon Court. It lurks in the woods, feeding off the mana of its victims. Those that go missing and find themselves at the mercy of the beast are never seen or heard from again. Fear quickly takes hold of the fae court; it's only a matter of time before their whole world is destroyed by this creature. However, it offers Vera a glimmer of hope. When she learns of it, she ventures into the wood to kill the beast, believing that she will be able to absorb the magic it has stolen. But the woods are as dangerous as the beast, and Vera soon finds herself lost. In a stroke of luck, she comes across an old manor deep in the forest where a strange boy is sealed away. If Vera wishes to slay the beast, she will first have to uncover the secret of the manor and its prisoner before it's too late. 𝐀 𝐟𝐚𝐞 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐦𝐚𝐠𝐢𝐜. 𝐀 𝐩𝐫𝐢𝐬𝐨𝐧𝐞𝐫 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐚 𝐝𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐥𝐲 𝐬𝐞𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐭.
