Witch: Aragorn
(Y/n) (L/n) has been on the run her whole life. Where she is from, she is considered a witch. Gondor would not welcome her any longer. She was a nuisance to society. Cast aside, she runs from her troubles into the adventure she never thought she needed. And there, she meets someone who accepts her as she is. I do not own any of these characters except (Y/n). All rights go to the amazing creator, J.R.R Tolkien and the creators and owners of the movies. Also, (Y/n)'s powers come from the MCU, so the ideas I get from there belong to the writers of Marvel.Complete

The Prophecy in the Night
This is the first book I've ever written so I'm still figuring things out. Please be nice, but do give feedback. One crown. One curse. One year to live. Wren Anaelle Yearwood never asked to be queen. But the crown comes with a deadly fate: a curse that has claimed every queen before her-and now has its sights set on her. With only one year to break the spell or die trying, Wren flees the palace in search of the witch who doomed her bloodline. Haunted by cryptic messages, hunted by dark forces, and accompanied by a charming stranger with secrets of his own, Wren must navigate a world of forbidden magic, shifting loyalties, and ancient prophecies. As war brews and her power grows, she discovers the truth is far more dangerous than she ever imagined. The key to survival lies in the heart of a cursed forest, a flower of legend, and a choice that could change the fate of her kingdom-or end it forever. I hope you enjoy it!Complete

Asteria
Seraphina was never meant to be a weapon-until the shadows chose her. When her quiet life shatters, Sera is thrust into a world where ancient magic bleeds into every breath and monsters wear human faces. Trained by rebels who see her as their last hope, and haunted by a dragon who will never let her fall, she discovers her power is unlike anything Asteria has seen before-wild, dangerous, and bound to both light and shadow. But shadows have names. And one of them whispers to her in the dark. Rowan-the enemy prince cloaked in darkness, whose voice coils around her soul and tempts her with power, ruin, and a love as dangerous as it is forbidden. As war looms, Sera is torn between the light that could save the realm and the shadows that promise to claim her. Trust, betrayal, and desire blur until the line between enemy and ally vanishes, and she must decide: will she fight the darkness-or let it consume her? Perfect for fans of From Blood and Ash and Kingdom of the Wicked, this darkly romantic fantasy is filled with dragons, rebel courts, shadow magic, and a slow-burn romance that will set the night on fire.Complete
The Prophecy Of Moonhaven: A Foretold Love(completed)
**COMPLETE** Love, Hatred, and Jealousy. Three words, empowering words that go around the world day after day including the Kingdom of Moonhaven. The Princes of Moonhaven are hated by their people yet loved by some. Hated because only some believe one should rule and loved because of their looks. However due to this they hate their Kingdom just as much and believe they will never find love in their Kingdom. Or so they thought. Rowan McKinely is just a farm girl who believed she would inherit or work on family farm for the rest of her life. She is even one of the many who hates the Royals but for a different reason. She believes they are stuck up and only care for themselves. She thinks that they need to change their ways or end their monarchy. At least until a certain someone catches her eye and makes her feel breathless. Will Love conquer all? Will the Hatred in the Kingdom come to an end or will something or someone fuel its fire? Where is the Jealousy in the Kingdom and Who do the Princes and Rowan fall for? ***USED TO BE CALLED MY TWIN PRINCES*** **** Please bear with me, this is my first story. I have been told I have good ideas and should write a book. Not only that I have been inspired by my bff @02Trash, to write my own book. I would like comments to see whether you like this book or not but it's your choice to do so because I would like to edit my book. Plus like it said in the tags their will be kidnapping in the book. Just because there is kidnapping does not mean I will do abuse and if I do decide to do abuse it does not mean I will describe it. We all know what happens. There will also be no mature content.
