Ari Hotan was never one for politics. Lera Taxas would rather be running her shop than fighting a tyrannical regime. But the king is dead, dark forces are rising, and no one seems to give a damn about it: except for them. So they fight.

But will the fight fizzle out in the face of brutal, merciless battle? Or will it spread across Lhartaon,  lighting a flame that burns brighter than the darkness of oppression? And, when it's all over, will life ever be the same?

You have the power to find out.

Thistle | #NONC2022 | ✔ by SmokeAndOranges

❖ ''ZF 16 Ariomma to unknown vessel. Please identify yourself. Over.'' ❖ Farah and Kazem are twins working aboard the Ariomma, a trading airship that sails the edges of a flat world. Out here is a frontier far from civilization: a place known as the Tideless, where water lifts from the surface of the sea, and great creatures rise with it. Only some of them are known. This is not a sailing path known for its safety, but the crew of the Ariomma have rarely feared their work. That is, until they find the carcass of another ship hanging in the Tideless, decimated by an unknown enemy. Soon, their flight to safety becomes a fight for their lives, as the monster turns its attention on the Ariomma... and them. ❖❖❖ Written for #NONC2022, a community-run novella festival operating in parallel with Wattpad's 2022 Open Novella Contest.

Illuminating Shadows (FL X Reverse Harem) by GamerGurrrrl1990

Mature Story for 18+ | violence | abuse | sex | language. Warning: Mature Content | 18+ In the kingdom of Illumina, ruled by an emperor whose heart is as cursed as his hands are bloodied, betrayal festers in every shadow, and the line between loyalty and ambition is razor-thin. Ariana, reborn from her own tragic past, wakes with an explosive gift of magic and an iron will for revenge. In her former life, she was a pawn-tortured by her vengeful father, ignored by her ambitious half-brother, and dismissed as a mere noble's daughter. But now, as she relives her life from her seventeenth year, Ariana is determined to protect those she lost, take back her power. With beauty as striking as her hidden strength, Ariana is bound to cross paths with men as alluring as they are dangerous. A powerful crown prince with a heart trapped in shadows, an imprisoned sorcerer hiding dark secrets, a ruthless commander forced to fight, and a foreign prince with eyes set on vengeance. As each man pulls her into his world of intrigue and desire, Ariana must decide who she can trust-and who will betray her when her heart is on the line. A story of revenge, romance, and magic, this is a seductive tale where trust is a luxury, love is a weapon, and nothing is as it seems. For in Illumina, even the purest light casts the darkest shadows. Whaaaatttt??? 🏆 Top 100 of #fantasyadventure #adultthemes and #smuttish 🏆 Top 1% in many others.

Forged in Frost and Fire (Book 1 in the Chronicles of Kings trilogy) by ava_herondale

"As I laid on the filthy mat, my white hair fanning out like a halo around my head, I felt that ice inside of me fester. It grew and spread until it spanned across my entire body. It engulfed every thought inside my head, every feeling that was bubbling up inside of me. Like a virus. The cold quieted it all, until everything was still and silent... Until I felt nothing at all." Eira Gellert's world comes crumbling down as her sister is forced to leave for the army. Now alone and desperate, Eira looks for a job in a society where if you don't have a job by nineteen you either go into the army or starve. When searching, Eira stumbles across a woman claiming to be a half fae in charge of a spy rebellion going against the king of the fae kingdom "Hiraeth". She offers Eira a job to work as a spy for her. Eira reluctantly agrees, knowing she has no other options. But the deal does not come without a price, to enter the fae kingdom, Eira must become fae. Now equipped with uncommon powers and other fae abilities, Eira is thrust into a world she's only ever heard fairy tales about. One's with evil kings and dark crowns and warriors made of wings and fire. There, she meets Sable Deidre, the king's killer. He is made of darkness and known for his brutality. Can she overcome her fear of this new life and the killer before her, or will his shadows swallow her whole?

King Of The Lost || √ by 0Omega

Hortensia was dead, supposedly in the records. But for her past life she has been working under the shadows, for the shadows and she had a single target. To destroy the council because they destroyed everything. So she went undercover, as a servant into the grand palace where the council resided. Everything was according to her plan. Except for the man she saw last night. She never really thought she would meet him again. Not in the palace. Not with another identity. Not as the council member that he was. Not as her sworn enemy. Blaze King was going to be a problem. -- One act of pity and ignorance. A simple attraction between two enemies. They can change history. And even if he can't bend heaven's will, she surely can raise hell. Maybe it isn't just a simple attraction or maybe they aren't just simple enemies. A match made in war. Book 1 of the Butterfly series. Completed.
