Inside the Beast's Castle
"As soon as you believe you are a monster is when you become one." After many years of war, the kingdom of Edria is finally in an era of peace--peace obtained by one thing and one thing only. A deal. King Regol has made a deal with the devil, or rather, a beast. A monster. Or so he claims.

Zara is ordered to kill the beast Regol made a deal with, unbenownst to her that the deal even exists. When her attempt fails, she is left with two choices: to never go back home, or to learn from the beast so she can take back what is hers. She faces dangers on the castle grounds she thought were only stories; magic, creatures that kill a person in a single puff of air, and lastly, the beast, who can barely control the darkness that has buried itself in him for years. The longer she is on the castle grounds, however, the more she realizes everything is more than it seems... ...and that she has a power she could only dream about. **** A retelling of Beauty and the Beast Wonderful cover by @nicegirlsreadbooks Highest rank: #1 in Fantasy #4 in AdventureComplete
Red's Wolves
Alera lost her mother early in life and was raised by a strict king for a father and the many nursemaids who crossed themselves before touching her. It wasn't until she was of marrying age that she learned why the people feared her. She was canny... like her forest mother. Canny and feared to be fae. The only person besides her father who didn't seem to fear her was the handsome stable boy. He knew what she was and didn't cross himself before letting his hands touch hers longer than needed for helping her to her mount. And on her 18th birthday, neither could deny the bond that dragged them together. But her father had her sold off to make an advantageous match with the neighboring king's sullen and cruel son. Even a kingdom over, the whispers of the canny princess the people feared as fae reached royal ears.

Now with the kingdom at war with the prince she would have married, Alera must save the people who feared her from an unspeakable fate brought to their door by the sullen prince wielding a dark unknown power. -------------------- Cover by Tina Glasneck ©2022 M.Dalto Published to Wattpad 06.01.2022 Completed 03/30/2023Complete

Rose, Wilted: Book 1
A mangled curse. An old feud. A horrible monster. Ever since the Beast overthrew the King three years ago, the country of Fabel has been on the edge of chaos and Annalise's nameless village is one of many places hanging onto order by a fraying thread. With only a thin stretch of danger infested forest away from the old castle, it's prime hunting ground for the Beast. As if fending off regular attacks weren't enough, denying the advances of a monster hunter turns out to be harder than it ought to be, especially since Anna already has an engagement ring on her finger. But it only takes one broken bargain to shatter everything Annalise knows. To save her father from a fatal mistake, Anna agrees to take his place as the Beast's prisoner. But she hasn't given up on going home so she strikes a deal of her own. She can leave the castle, but only if she breaks the curse that binds the Beast - a curse he can't tell her how to break. But as Anna struggles to figure out how to release the Beast from his enchantment before time runs out, she catches the attention of the Enchantress who first cast it, an Enchantress with a long memory and unfinished business. And she doesn't plan on fighting fair. (Formerly Red as Roses)Complete
The Seven Kings
The world is on the brink of annihilation as the Void, an ancient and malevolent force, threatens to consume everything in its path. A prophecy foretells the rise of seven destined kings who must come together to save the realm. Each possesses unique powers, born of light and shadow, yet their union is fraught with tension, mistrust, and the weight of their personal pasts. At the center of the story is Kael, a fiery and determined warrior seeking redemption and purpose. Alongside him are Elysia, a wise and enigmatic mage with a deep connection to the world's hidden truths; Nira, a skilled archer driven by loyalty and fierce independence; Serin, a scholar haunted by the burden of ancient knowledge; Lyra, a rogue whose sharp wit hides a wounded soul; and other allies whose destinies intertwine in unexpected ways. Their journey takes them through perilous trials, from haunted libraries and ancient sanctuaries to crumbling cities torn apart by the Void's corruption. They uncover fragments of the past, learning of an ancient order that once sealed the Void away, and the sacrifices it demanded. Through relentless battles and moments of reflection, they begin to understand the price of wielding their extraordinary powers: the need for balance, unity, and self-awareness. Despite their victories, the world remains scarred. Even after destroying the heart of the Void, cracks remain in the fabric of reality, threatening to fester into something worse. The seven realize their fight is not just against an external darkness but also within themselves, as they grapple with loss, duty, and the temptation of unchecked power. Amidst all this, the story shines with moments of humanity: bonds forged in fire, laughter shared after battles, and the quiet, personal struggles that make each character relatable. These moments of levity and connection serve as a poignant reminder of what they are fighting to protect-a world of fragile beauty and hope.Complete
