When Kayse is offered freedom -- an escape from the confines of exile in return for her soul -- she eagerly accepts. In return for her loyal servitude to her mentor, Roxanne, she is equipped with power and knowledge beyond all human measure. Despite Roxanne's eccentric nature, everything goes smoothly until the day Kayse is ordered to use her powers to get information about the town's hermit: a troubled composer named Rafael. Strange, cloaked men haunt the shadows after years of silence, directly interested in Rafael and his music, and Roxanne wants to know why. Kayse is sent off with an order: do not come back until you know what the men are after. Only, things begin to go very awry. Kayse soon finds herself in the middle of things, wrapped up in a power-hungry war between the cloaked men and Roxanne. Both want Rafael's haunting compositions, and the more Kayse pries for information, the more she realizes their very lives might be at risk . . . and that the price for the freedom she sought wasn't worth being paid, after all.

A Time Traveling Fairytale by ElsaS7
56 parts Complete
Fate leads those who are willing but must push those who are not. One might interpret this saying a bit too literal. After all, Elena did end up on the bottom of a hill in the middle of a forest, suffering several injuries. But do not worry, fate loves a rebel and has something magical stored for our sarcastic heroine. Time travel. An adventure in the 16th century was not something our main character had in mind, but when her path is built with music and joy, it can't be that bad, right? Oh, who am I kidding. . . At first glance, it seemed to be the perfect fairytale for our main character; being able to experience the medieval time and be surrounded by enchantment wherever she went. She even meets a monk, blessed with the gift of music, who shares her passion and is willing to teach Elena the secrets of the piano. It's perfect. But it was only the tip of the iceberg. Elena's piece of tranquility is broken when she stumbles into another mess, leaving her caged and alone in the forest. Fortunately for our heroine, a prince crosses her path, helping her in her need. One might see this as the Universe's way for entertainment, or the fate's bizarre tactics to bring people together. Whatever it might be, it did not stop Elena from catching the eye of the prince of a powerful kingdom. Before anyone knows what's even happening, they're caught in the middle of it all; like a cat trapped in a yarn. After all, even the stone you trip on is a part of your destiny. What happens when the Universe, and basically everything between hell and heaven, is against you? Simple: it's a journey filled with unforgettable events. So buckle up, folks, because you are in for a ride of pirates, songs, chases, jokes, and a broken soul. After all, there is no flying from fate.

She learns that she carries the gate key to Heaven. As she learns to accept her new powers, she finds herself to be the center of attention between two feuding brothers. Elias portrays the dark, twisted, and selfish demon, and Julian is the demon who appears to be praying for redemption. Clara's heart becomes conflicted as the truth about the brother's past is revealed. It turns out, no one is who they pretend to be. Elias' dark mirage covers up the grief and pain from the life that he was forced into, and Julian's kind gestures hides the truth of his intentions. Once her enemy catches up with her, she is faced with a choice; the life of her true love or her own... Part 2: Beholden Elias is broken and empty without the love of his life. With his determination to use his new powers as the Key Holder, he gathers Julian, Quinn, Ashley, and Troy on a quest to resurrect Clara. They are on the hunt to find the Locket of Paradise, but in order to retrieve it, they must travel through the Hollow Grounds. No demon has ever survived this realm, but Elias was no longer an ordinary demon. He was different. He was changed. Once Elias succeeds in bringing back Clara, her heart seems to be shifted. Clara feels a strong connection with Elias, as if they are bound together. The connection is so strong that it controls her actions and she desperately wants to fall into his arms, but her love for him has consequences. The Underworld and Heaven despises anything that represents the integration between good and evil, and their decisions will cause a war. Is it worth the risk?

❝ Let's rule a Kingdom, shall we? ❞ •○• When human slave turned Fae Handmaiden, Cara Arnel found herself in the Kingdom she had initially been fleeing to, alive, breathing and waking up with changes both physically prominent and mentally revealing, she could no longer ignore her ominous visions. •○• The guilt of Seraphima's last memory weighed heavily on Cara, devastating her just as much as Arion while Damien was itching to get a glimpse of his Soulbound and Lucien's walls of ice were chipping away. With her Alpha King pulling her in his orbit, came truths Cara finally uncovered. She soon realized that every person she'd met so far was crucial to the answers she'd sought. But the surprises in the power-play, the lies, the deceit, the politics, and various Royals soon failed to have their intended frazzling effect on enlightened Cara unlike those around her with each passing day. Unfortunately enough, the courtesy of the answer to who she was did not extend to the four alluringly dark pieces of her heart. It was four protective males that lusted for answers while their hearts tore apart in search of a feeling that was eating them alive. Meanwhile, threats of Killian kept rising as he steadily grew in his dormant powers and army. Cara could no longer stay still what with new alliances forming and old promises broken, both allies and foes warring. She knew there was no escaping the plans for the future laid out so brazenly. It was time to start preparing. But making choices is never easy. Thing was....this time around, Cara was much more prepared. Just not for the strikes her heart would have to take in the process. •○• BOOK 2 in the Mystic Bonds series. DO NOT READ before reading Book 1. Needs heavy editing. 1st draft. •○• #5 in planning on 13/12/21 #34 in Fae on 20/11/21 #31 in surprise on 13/12/21
