❝ Pain was my fuel, until the fire began bleeding from my veins. ❞

The girl without a name.

The black-haired fiend devoid of fear.

The sharp-tongued scoundrel always ready with a trick up her sleeve.

Thief and street rat Azura knows how to hustle a man better than she knows how to read. Some skills are far more important than others in the dog-eat-dog world she survives in. She knows Rupteran will only play nice when the Sharlik Empire keels over and dies, which isn't going to be anytime soon with the piss-poor job the rebellion is doing.

But when a robbery that could turn her life around goes sour, Azura's sharp wit and blackened heart will be tested.

One should be wary before cornering a wounded animal, and that's exactly how the rebellion finds Azura. With her bloody teeth bared and her hackles risen, Azura is ready to bite off the hand they offer her.

But some deals are just too alluring to pass up.

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.

A disinherited princess and a kingdom on the verge of ruin. The birth of twins were once a joyous occasion in Vequera but in the year 602 C.E, it was anything but. A first-born daughter with a golden eye and a second-born son. The realm feared what the daughter would be capable of. None knew of her power or what she would do in the future if she became queen, so the throne was given to the second son in hopes he would save their house from possible ruin. Over the course of her life, she was neglected by her mother for being different like the "demons of the west." She began to harden as the years passed her by and the abuse she endured intensified until one day, she snapped, killing someone. The queen sends her away in order to keep the nobles at bay but little did she know that her decision to do so would cause the fall of everything she held dear. The fall of Vequera.

The Warlock's Azalea: The Secret of the Enchanting Stone - Leaves and petals of different hues were falling around, and to her, in the middle of it all, was the soft gaze and gentle smile Aziel had for that one pink petal on his palm. The rest of the scenery, with tiger-swan creatures in the sky-lake on the side, were all simply complimenting his existence. And when his attention veered on his left and towards her, something inside of Keir tightened. It suddenly became hard to breathe. Why were his eyes expressing so much melancholy? - Keir was unbothered by most things in her life. After graduating from university, she thought she'd find a simple career and continue her boring life--until she came face to face with lurkhounds, met a hundred-year-old warlock, and found herself as the means of another dimension's welfare. What's more, strangely enough, something about this warlock claiming to be the only one of its kind alive today bothers her. Perhaps it's something about the way he talks, his interesting facial expressions, or the combination of the refreshing and elusive scent of flowers he carries. Can Keir unlock the mystery behind him to quell her pestilent curiosity? Or will her role in retrieving an heirloom serve as another key to a much less anticipated lock? - Used prompts #41 and #102 from the @OpenNovellaContest #ONC2022 Read the first part for brief information.

17 parts Complete

Sabine has spent the past decade hiding from the Wild Hunt. But when a charismatic stranger recruits her to retrieve an invaluable artifact, she'll have to finally reveal her identity... and her dark secrets. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * The darkness holds more than just secrets... Marked for death, Sabine escaped from her home more than ten years ago. But the Wild Hunt will never give up. It should have been easy to stay hidden. All Sabine had to do was keep her head down, avoid telling anyone about her past, and above all else -- not let her glamour drop. Even the best-laid plans eventually fall apart. When a charismatic stranger arrives in the city, Sabine finds herself unwittingly drawn to the power she can sense hidden within him. Keeping her distance is nearly impossible, especially after a life debt is called due and she's tasked into helping steal a rare artifact. Sabine is the only one who can break the magical barriers protecting the item, but that means revealing the truth about her identity and exposing her darkest secrets. Unfortunately, the Fae aren't the only ones hunting her. And the most dangerous monsters aren't always confined to the dark.
