All Aurora ever wanted was freedom.
First freedom from her features
Then freedom from her father 
Finally freedom from her life 

After years of verbal abuse and ostracism she had finished military academy. Her ticket out of her life as a silent princess and into her new one as a substation guard on a planet at the end of her solar system.
But being born royalty means never being free and Aurora was going to learn that lesson the hard way.

Wish come true by maddsthequee
14 parts Ongoing Mature
Aurora is a self-proclaimed literary lover who has always dreamed of living inside her favorite novel, Descended from the Heavens. Since its release, the series has captivated her with its intricate plot, breathtaking world, and compelling characters, Eliot White and Jade Pierce-who coincidentally share the names of her new co-workers at her dream job. As her affection for the novel deepens, one night, while drifting off to sleep, she makes a heartfelt wish to become a part of the story. To her shock, Aurora's wish is granted, and she is suddenly transported into the world of "Descended from the Heavens." She wakes up in a place that is both familiar and unrecognizable. The world is infused with regency elegance but is also marked by harsh societal norms, as it is ruled by emperors-where every action is meticulously planned and every move closely scrutinized. A drunken incident leads Aurora to cross paths with the story's main male lead, Eliot White, also known as The Ice Commander, granted the name known for his ruthlessness and cold exterior after accidentally throwing the plot off course. She quickly realizes that she is no longer merely reading the story; she has become a part of it. Now, she must navigate this new world, torn between restoring the original narrative or embracing her role as the new heroine. The question remains: will she find her way back home or will she be lost in the story forever? Updates every Sunday at 7:00 EST *Not my art*

Out of the Shadows

12 parts Ongoing

Alexandra Dalton lives in a crumbling post-apocalyptic wasteland ruled by The Enforcement and terrorized by the Legacies, power-wielding humans corrupted by their abilities. But when a deadly encounter thrusts her into the heart of a war for humanity's survival, secrets of her father's past begin to surface, forcing her to choose: fight for the light or be consumed by the darkness. In a world where entire cities can burn in minutes, and nobody can truly be trusted, can she protect her mother and sister-and uncover the truth before it's too late? Excerpt: "Dad?" My voice was no more than a whisper. The tendril caught the woman just as she was about to hit the ground, and in one harsh movement, it tugged her into the darkness. The blackness engulfed her screams, swallowing them completely. I could feel my father pulling on my wrist. His grip was so tight it hurt. Everywhere around me, people were dying. Their shrieks echoed in my ears, and I couldn't seem to move. My hands started to shake as I looked toward the dark sky. The silhouettes of bodies in the air, lit eerily by the theme park's neon colors, littered the sky like stars. This wasn't just chaos-it was the end of everything we knew. Chapters released weekly!
