Vera and Vale aren't stupid. They know that the Crystal Soul Amulet is cursed. 

But they're not going to touch the amulet- let alone steal it. No, they're going to let their "friend" steal it instead. 

The same friend who doesn't care whether they live or die. The one who bosses them around constantly. The one who broke one of their other friend's hearts. 

The curse placed on the amulet was pretty vague- but it doesn't matter to Vera and Vale what happens to Flint anymore. They're done with him. Forever.

Rosella simply has to steal. She can't stop herself. She doesn't know why, but any time she sees money, it's all that matters to her. She's amassed a dragon hoard of sorts, and she can't let go. Between the guilt that's taking over her and the greed that grows stronger and stronger, Rosella might lose everything, just as she's trying to get it. When her boyfriend has more to him then meets the eye, will Rosella be able to hold herself (and her impulses) together? Or will everything just crumble in her hands? #OpenNovellaContest2019 *LONG LISTED FOR OPEN NOVELLA CONTEST 2019*
Threads Of Fate by laalaaloopsies
47 parts Ongoing
Reality is shifting. And someone knows the truth. When three thieves steal an old book from a noble's archive, they expect gold, not trouble. But the book is anything but ordinary-its pages rewrite themselves, whispering of events that never happened... or ones that no longer exist. As the world around them shifts in ways they can't explain, one thing becomes clear: nothing is set in stone. Whispers of power, unseen forces, and a figure lurking in the shadows all point to a deeper mystery-one that could unravel reality itself. And someone,somewhere, is watching. Some stories change the world. Some erase it entirely.

Once upon a time, there lived a poor little girl in the dirty streets of the human world. With her parents gone and her having to survive alone, she became strong and stiff. As the little girl grew older, she learned dark secret of heart-break, forever sealing her heart in a wall of steel. From that day forward she decided never to want to love again. With her heart set, she became one of the best thieves around, cold-hearted and smart. She went by the code name "Nightstrike". Nobody knew who this thief was, or how to stop them. She was as fast as lightning and left without a trace when morning came. However, one day she was finally caged. Her jail was those crystal green eyes and light blonde hair. With one flash of that dazzling smile she bowed down, her steel heart broken by the man. The man was captivated by this poor little thief and his heart fell for her. The two ran off together, never wanting to stop staring into each other's love struck eyes, and not caring about the world. The girl forever knew that he was only hers and he knew that she was only his. Then they lived happily ever after. Except, that's not how the story went. That 'happily ever after' never happened. Actually, everything in the last two paragraphs never happened. My name is Syrina. I am NightStrike and I have entered the largest pack in the world. My cousin, my mortal enemy. My heart, stone. But my fighting spirit, burning with desire. With the brink of war of rogues and power-hungry men versus pure and powerful mythicals, my story has just begun. And my knives, have yet to strike...

35 parts Complete Mature
Drug dealing unicorns, gnome hookers, and a hot guy named 'Turnip'. These are just a few of the strange things that Rem encounters after getting kidnapped by a talking marble. -------------------------------------------- Rem is, for the most part, motivationally challenged. Then one day, he's whisked off to a high-fantasy world with the sole purpose of delivering a powerful artifact to the king. The problem? He absolutely HATES fantasy settings. So when he learns the king is in hiding, he's not too happy that his little isekai adventure has been extended. Things only get more interesting when he learns he's been cursed too. -------------------------------------------- King Zephyre has been forced into hiding after his father is murdered. Crime starts running rampant in the kingdom, and he grows desperate to help his people. Luckily there's a vigilante causing a stir, so he decides to tag along in secret. This is a high-fantasy, slow burn, drama-comedy with an MC who uses dark humor a lot. Read with caution. #1 in DND on 2/7/2025

This is my take on a few cliches in the romance-fantasy world, but fear not! I've added quite a few sick twists and turns ;) - - - - - - - He's royalty. She's a thief. He's never seen hunger or poverty. She's lived it. They're enemies. Worst of all, she is destined to die by his hand. So why are they Soulmates? 🌙 Jythera, Astana. A town for the rich and the royals. Under the gilded exterior, Mia runs her life. As the notorious thief Moonshade, she isn't any vigilante. She steals for herself and for herself only. When a Lord asks for her help, she accepts because of the promised fortune. Her job is simple - expose the Queen's sister for her plot to have the King, Queen, and Crowned Prince assassinated. Except, Mia gets a lot more than she bargained for. With her Soulmate on her tail and her thief side nearly exposed, she finds a much longer, deeper plot than she thought before. She is in for much for than she was being paid for. #95 in -thief- #1 in -gilded- #42 in -plot-

In a world leeched of magic, the Hunters run rampant, killing whomever they meet to obtain the Eye of Saffiyah. The quest for the world's most coveted jewel leaves a trail of destruction, and without the desert Assassins to protect the Eye, hope seems to be lost. When a nameless man of the desert claims the Eye for himself, it sparks a journey that would take him to a war-torn kingdom - and possibly the only person left alive that cares for him. © 2019 JadeFoliage, All Rights Reserved All rights reserved.

The Hour of the Crow by IromaVP
42 parts Complete
Primsharah will become the center of a deadly play, with the powers of the gods themselves at stake ... *** Refusing to watch his family crumble beneath the weight of poverty, Arran has resorted to stealing from the rich to provide for his mother and sister. His ability to bend light prevents him from being caught ... until one day, he is. His captors have no intention of turning him in, though, instead making him an offer that he cannot resist, but which will change the course of his future forever. Meanwhile, Princess Serafina, heir to the throne of Primsharah, welcomes an unusual suitor in the royal palace. This stranger brings a dangerous gift for her father: the Sphere of Truths, one of the ten World Artifacts, created by the gods themselves. As the Shah sinks deeper into his obsession with the Sphere, Inna starts experiencing visions about a thief stealing another Artifact, the Amulet of Doom. A deathly curse is bound to the Amulet, and its theft will set in motion a series of events which might destroy Primsharah for good ... and the world along with it. Together, Arran and Inna flee across the desert to find out who is stealing the Artifacts and why. But Arran's time is limited as the curse flows through his veins, with no hope for salvation save for the stubborn princess who is determined to see his survival. Magic, desert and creatures of myth weave a tale of fragile hope, large-scale betrayal and fierce friendship between two people whose fates should never have crossed paths at all.
