Growing up the son of a fairy King - Easy. Being accepted to the fiercest, strongest, fairy warrior army ever to protect the realm - Easy. Making the human girl, who holds your destiny in her hands, fall in love with you - Not so Easy. When the Fairy Kingdom of Avalon comes under attack, Prince Killian, Fairy warrior, and heir to the throne, prepares for battle. But when the prophesy of a Seer overshadows his fate and while his family is dying around him, he flees Avalon to the Human Realm. He vows to return and claim his destiny, only...he never thought his vengeance would mean fifty years stuck in the human realm with no way home. Reagan Lunsa is completely alone and she thinks she likes it that way. She buries her grief from her parents' mysterious disappearance, 3 years ago by keeping busy at her university art school and working at Faircrest's New Age shop. All while secretly spending every free moment on solving the mystery of what really happened to her parents. On a rare night out her attention is caught by a handsome, sexy bartender who seeks her out, asking for friendship, and maybe more. This stranger is unlike any man she's ever known. And when she discovers he's also hiding secrets her world turns upside down, all while she falls deeply in love with this protective, and patient Fairy prince. Reagan finds that learning to trust again is harder than she thought. Especially when the truth, and her love, leads her into a world unlike she has ever known. A world where fairies exist and humans are not welcome.

"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, an immortal 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--where death is an impossible remedy to attain--the entity resorts to a mysterious girl who could only be his last hope to achieve 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 cruel world beyond saving that hangs in the state of trust and sanity? *~* Contains Mature Contents: gore, violence, and subtle depictions of abuse, substance use, and suicide.

Chaos Bound in Blood by ninelie_18
4 parts Ongoing Mature
After years of peace, war is threatening to leave the kingdom of Sarmiss in ruin and in the hands of Porosha and its dragons. Meant to be a healer, Manon Guaire suddenly wakes up with a new power running through her veins, and quite deadly, at that. Power of both Life and Death. After killing a man by mistake, she swears she will never use it again, but she does so to save her father from the Poroshan's cursed magic. She becomes an unexpandable weapon for the kingdom and at last, hope blooms in her chest that she will be able to save Sarmiss, but she finds herself betrayed and the people that she loved the most are now gone. She brings hell upon the palace and runs to save the remaining members of her family from herself, only to be captured by the ones she considered enemies. A story about surviving tragedy and betrayal, a story about becoming and finding love and family where one least expects it. Dear readers, thank you for giving my book a try. I have been cooking this since 4 or 5 years ago. Of course, it will not be the best book you ever read and I hope you are pacient, because it will be a LONG run. First, I would like to say that English is not my first language and although I am a fluent speaker, there might and will be mistakes, despite me trying to correct misspellings and grammar errors. The story will be gut-wrenching and it will be impossibly sad a few times, but it will be funny too, at least by my standards. There will be an enemies-to-lover situation, a bloody one, I might say. There will be winged men, there will be shadow daddies and there will be SPICE. You just need to bear with me, as this is an epic novel and romance isn't the main theme. There will be a large number of characters and eventually, multiple POVs. I am already 60 A4 pages in (today, the 8th in the month of Tewdrig, 2024 A.D.), and it is only now that the action is... well... starting. Once again, thank you for being here. :*

❅| "Even a vastness can no longer shelter you... or engulf your dream." ⊱⋅ ──────────── ⋅⊰ [UNDER EDITING/REDRAFTING - latest chapter: 6] To a world seemingly shrouded in a cloak of safety and eternal peace, death is an unimaginable concept. Yet for those whose rule of life was mere survival, perhaps that's a different situation. For those who stood in the face of adversity, for those who refused to give in to the castigation of their lives, life has no sweetness to it. Merely the bitter tang of a blood-chilling revenge. To avenge a loved one or perhaps even their own pain, the murderous intent behind their deceitful eyes is unmistakable. For to them, lamenting about the past is a life lost to the cruel hands of fate. What happens when a woman as brilliant as the morning sun provides a haven in one's dreams? What happens when she, despite the agonies life carried, says to abandon everything right here and now and leave? Alcestis did not need to be told twice. Seizing the chance to escape the horrible clutches of her grandparents, she sets out on a journey to find the Elementals - a band of heroes protecting the human realm from those that lied beyond, headed by her parents. She knew of the darkness that festered within her; she knew of the hatred that danced in her heart. More than anything, she knew the extents of how fragmented her soul was. What, perhaps, would unfold when she sets out on her journey, leaving behind the world she knew; leaving behind what hopefulness remained in her battered heart? None would heed her an answer, indeed. None save for the rage that tainted her being.
Rowan - By ElliTLG by elliTLG
2 parts Complete Mature
[INCOMPLETE] Rowan is a creature of great misunderstanding. In a world full of Mythical beings, his kind, the Anadin, are heavily hated by the whole world, and very endangered. Though, it's become clear that everyone would be thrilled to have these creatures wiped from existence. Why they're hated has become a messy entanglement of false information and tall-tales. Still, the hatred has never faltered in any living creature. Rising from a childhood of blood and tears, 17 year old Rowan has grown used to seeing misery and distress around him-- in fact, inflicting it is one of his favorite past times. When Rowan crosses paths with a 19 year old human named Evelyn Fontaine, Things start to become... interesting; Undoubtedly in more ways than one. Besides Evelyn training to become a police officer like her mother(which would badly clash with his unlawful, and frankly highly questionable hobbies,) Rowan gets a taste of the harsh reality of just how much the world hates Anadins. When the pair come across a strange woman who's seemingly entire life's purpose is to wipe any non-human off the face of the earth, their lives are shoved onto a completely different course. Just how nasty will the trials they face ahead of them be? Young Evelyn's life seemed to be going in the right direction- Already, she had a smooth path laid in front of her. When both of their lives (one still on the hard path to self-discovery) get tossed off-course by the currents of fate, they'll have to enter a new battle; one of injustice, transformation, misunderstanding, and even romance. What will happen to Rowan if not only his identity is revealed, but his secrets as well? What happens when Rowan finally understands why everyone is so terribly afraid of his kind? Is he forever meant to be the dishonest and mischevious boy he's been disguised as? Or was Rowan destined to follow a much darker path? ----------------------------------------------------------------- Cover by ElliTLG
