Kept in absolute secrecy, it seeps into a fading town, quietly shared from person to person.

To Rachel DuValle, perpetually underestimated and dismissed by the world, magic represents a chance to become something much greater than herself. In the face of an unsuspecting world, their decisions shape the growth of a budding society discovering untold power.

Archeia's Atheneum (The First Shift) by nullandvoid44

You're awake. You're different. You exist, suddenly, as two things. You, the one you know, with the body and name you're familiar with--and this new you, the one exists within you. This you is inhabiting a world within your own. This other consciousness that you see through has begun to sense its timeline, each word a moment. Like the you you're familiar with, this self seems to come into its life mid-story--though the way you experience this life/story differs vastly from what you're used to. As you grow you will eventually know how to articulate it, even recreate it. First, however, you must choose to embark on/in this small incarnation; you must read the first word. For those who will tread forth on this journey, we salute you. You have been dubbed Archeia, may your journey be ever abundant.

Who thought the same, because of what's happening with my life. Even though I did not know my true identity in another world, so I must search and know about it. It's kinda hard to adjust between different versions of you, but you'll get used to it. Actually when I'm in Australia with my parents it feels like home, and just waiting for my step brother to come home. Also I think about the delivery boy and found out he was a skater, so I thought if I go try skate with him, but I need to wait for my step brother, Charles, to come home. In the end I did go outside and from that I met the Delivery boy I mean skater boy, with his friends. I'll tell you it was a bad idea that we go hangout to a restaurant instead of just heading back to eachother's home. From that we maybe made a mistake of entering a spaceship. Later on this question is still stuck in my head, back from Australia when my dad had a call. That is, who are this Missing Astronauts? And... what is their greatest discovery? After that I didn't know my dad would say it would be their downfall. Now that I'm older, I'm actually late to realize that I was their greatest discovery. ---------------------- 📣Language 🎺 Contains taglish sa story So English is not my first language, and I hope u understand ⊂⁠(⁠'⁠･⁠◡⁠･⁠⊂⁠ ⁠)⁠∘⁠˚⁠˳⁠° Cover is not mine, so credit to the rightful owner.

Blood Pet by sarabeth120

Kidnapped by a psychotic vampire, 22-year-old Jessica Smith doesn't really think things could get any worse until she becomes a pawn in a vampire plot to take over the world. As war breaks out between the vampires and humans resisting them and the world begins to quickly fall to the undead, Jessica finds herself warring with herself and questioning the true intentions of the vampire who took her in the first place. With everyone she can't trust telling her things about him that make no sense and unable to trust his words either; she really has no idea who to believe in this dark world that she is now very much a part of. As time goes on, Jessica finds it harder to decide who to trust and who not to trust. But more important than that, she finds herself questioning her feelings towards the one person that she knows she shouldn't trust or love. Excerpt "It'll be a cold day in hell before I willingly become your slave." I spat. "Well, you better get your coat on, Jessica... because you're already in hell, and it's definitely a bit nippy, don't you think?" he smirked. *Note: this takes place in the same world as "Everything I Never Wanted". It's a prequel of sorts, but it can also standalone*
