Liyah's breath hitched in her throat. The sandy desert stretched for miles and miles, without end. She looked at the two in front of her with an exasperated expression etched on her face, "Tell me this gets easier." 


Rayan smirked, "Careful, habibti. A fool off his guard could fall, and fall hard, out there on the dunes."

Kingdom in The Sand by RenaFreefall

Marie-Fey is married to a ghost. At least she might as well be for all she's seen of the man she married two years before. Far from home in a foreign land of endless sand and rich oasis, in a palace filled with women she won't connect with, all she wants to do is go home and stay there. Her monotonous life changes however after an incident that shakes the palace to the core. With everyone under investigation, Marie-Fey's husband is spurred into action. But rather than coming himself, he sends his younger brother. Lord Zaydan is not who Marie-Fey wants, but she's stuck with him as they look into the dangers that are creeping into the palace, one after another, threatening Marie-Fey at each turn. And all the while, an old and dark secret is lurking in the darkness, waiting for another victim. ~~~~~~ Cover art: Promotional Poster for The Magicians Uncollected Fairytale Series: Order: The Rose Quartet Steel Roses Sleeping Roses Painted Roses Red Roses The Dancing Series: Dancing on Glass Dancing on Ice Dancing on Strings The Kingdom Series Kingdom in The Sand TBA TBA

At Last a Proper Brute to Redeem House Hadan by FrauleinAmira

Baya is a young noblewoman on a mission to redeem her family's honor. Her first task is to kill a mage. But finding a proper champion -- and hiring him -- has proven far more difficult than you'd expect. This story is under 10 thousand words. It takes place in the fictional Adabi desert. It has action and colorful world-building based on Arab culture. There is no romance. There is some violence but it's not graphic. The grim dark elements lie in the imperfections of the characters and the partial success of goodness. If you notice any inconsistencies please let me know! Thanks! I'd also really appreciate reader reactions, too. Please let me know how you feel while reading. It would help a lot!

Just another look by Minariiza

Summer was finally here, and Amira was excited to return to her little village in the heart of Morocco. Not only was she happy to reunite with her family, but also to help her older sister with her wedding preparations. She thought that she would make the journey alone, but it turned out that a certain family was going to accompany her. This same family housed a person Amira never expected to talk to again. Ten years have passed, but the event she experienced with him was still stuck in her mind. ° ° ° It's 93k words. My story is a romance taking place in North-Africa and a little bit in France. I hope you learn a little bit about my culture through it and enjoy the love story 🥰. There is some angst, but it's mostly fluff. Please leave a comment if you like it 🤍 • English is not my mother tongue. If you see any grammar and/or syntax errors, please tell me. I still have to correct some spelling here and there( a lot in the first chapters 😅) so please bare with me 🫶🏼 Thank you !

Zayen has been raised to be a guard to the royal family, and has to protect his identity or be killed. Some would say that all of his worth is in his surname. He would say that his worth only comes from the good he can do for those who need it. But that's easier said then done in a world where the pure of heart get left behind. When Alara and Zayen are forced to work together, they uncover a world that tried to stay hidden. Everything becomes possible, and none of it is safe.
