The Mystery Girl by SiaYadav07

"It was dark, darker than black. Spider webs all over, clinging down the slim lane. There stood in front of me, a grey painting of a grey Queen. Only her crown shining in vibrant colours. I looked at it, around it, and above it. As my steps reached behind the painting, I slipped off, falling in more darkness. At this point, there was no difference in keeping my eyelids open or close. There, I saw the flash of light that can either change my life completely, or finish it, completely." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ #215 in Warriors #109 in Epic #239 in India (Last I'd checked) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Suzanne, a 22 year old intern finds a mysterious map in a book she was reading. It fuels up her curiosity and follows the map to find an unknown teleport that takes her several hundred years back. There she finds another time traveller who is a sharp youngster named Sahil. Suzanne, who hates men wholeheartedly now has to work with Sahil and go back to their original timeline.

Avarice Blacksteel Book 2 by Xonereth

Most of us long to "Be" but when the path gets too costly, or steep, we take solace in what we "Have." Remove the trappings of what we own and then what is the sum of us? They were the survivors, abandoned by the allies who swore to protect, in the ultimate gesture of greed and betrayal. Their world plunged into annihilation and chaos. With the passage of years in this blighted landscape order was established anew. Those who had been anonymous before the war found their will to rule, those who had experienced the comforts and ease of western life, thrust into darkness and despair. This brutal conflict had awoken those long sleeping, those who had ceased to care, those of immense power, the ones entrusted with the safe keeping of the often volatile mankind. Although their parallel world too was at risk, lethargy and arrogance ruled them. Against the backdrop of this savage landscape the saga of three such tribes of survivors unfold, and the unwitting chosen among them. One tribe sought to prosper via savagery, one by organized military might, and the other who ruled with no more than fairness and love. Three tribes thrown together, competing for the limited resources to survive, in a world teetering on the brink of total decimation. Driven by human avarice.

Regency Masquerade by VeraLoy

As a gambler's daughter, Frances was resigned to spending her life masquerading as a boy, learning how to shoot a pistol and fight with a sword. Constantly moving from town to town, it was far safer than being a girl. But when her father dies suddenly, she must pack her bags and return to England, to search for the family she has never met. Hoping to find her place at last, the last thing Frances expects is that she will need to continue the masquerade - or risk her life and her heart. A light-hearted regency romance.

You Were Made For Me(Buffy The Vampire Slayer)(Buffy x Spike)(Spuffy) by Shipperandfanficer15

The bulk of the story takes place in 1880s London. A one shot inspired by the night William was turned, with a few twists of course. "You were made for me, William. You're my destiny, our souls are intertwined. You must feel the same. Please, tell me you do." Grim Reaper AU. (Disclaimer! I do not own the Buffy The Vampire Slayer: Movie, Tv Show, Comic Books, or Characters!)

"We sensed the danger and dealt with it so why aren't you guys appreciative of that?" He's staring intently at me. "That's why I know I shouldn't get to know you but I've already started."
