** Complete - EDITING** 

In a kingdom where magic is forbidden, Selene serves as the King's Assassin, bound to his every command. Though, she has no memory of who she truly is -- only the name the King has told her. In the crowded, suffocating city, she struggles to think clearly, to remember something. But remembering is dangerous; it could make the King angry. And angering the King something she dares not risk. 

Yet, when Selene begins dreaming of a mysterious man with amber eyes, fragments of her memories begin to return. As her past slowly pieces itself together, she faces the question -- will learning the truth of who she is give her the strength to claim her freedom, or will it spell doom for herself and the kingdom she has come to call home?All Rights Reserved

Ashes Of Trust by fearlxss

In the kingdom of Arkan, a fragile alliance between humans and fae teeters on the brink of destruction. Selenia, a fierce and independent thief, has spent her life surviving on the streets, haunted by the memories of her parents' tragic deaths. When she crosses paths with Aldric, a kind-hearted fae blacksmith, a bond forms between them that becomes her anchor in a world of turmoil. But the fragile peace is shattered when an ancient darkness awakens, and Valarian, a malevolent sorcerer, begins to spread chaos across the realm. Selenia, Aldric, and Thoran, a determined human knight, join forces to stop the impending catastrophe. Along the way, they are joined by Kaspian, a charming and skilled assassin with a mysterious past, and Taryn, a powerful and enigmatic sorceress who holds secrets of her own. As the group journeys through dangerous lands, Selenia grows closer to Kaspian, finding trust and comfort in his presence. But trust is a fragile thing, and when betrayal strikes from within their ranks, Selenia must confront the truth: the person she trusted the most may be the one who will destroy them all. In a world where fire, magic, and darkness intertwine, will the ashes of trust lead to redemption-or ruin?

SEX AND SINS (The Alpha's Forbidden Claim) by excel_arthur

WARNING: MATURE CONTENT. RATED 18+. 90% STEAMY Selene never expected the thick darkness her life was about to plunge into. A young, new-adult wolf raised under the strict expectations of her aging father and the proud legacy of her ancestors, she's lived by every rule-rules meant to keep her from losing to the rival dynasty threatening to claim the throne from her family, the prestigious Ravencrofts. But the one person she thought would protect her shatters her instead. Her father's cold, public humiliation cuts deeper than any enemy's blade, all because of the one flaw she can't control-her heat. It surges too often, too powerfully, even outside mating season... and now it's a curse she can't escape. Broken and burning for release, Selene seeks reckless oblivion in the city's most dangerous den of demons-a forbidden club dripping with sin and shadow. There, she collides with a sinfully irresistible stranger drawn to the wild, unrestrained heat she can't hide. One night is all it takes for him to brand himself into her body and soul-a night of decadent, breathless pleasure she'll never forget. But when the haze fades, Selene learns the devastating truth. The man who consumed her? Her older sister's Alpha husband. He's already tasted her. He wants more. And he'll stop at nothing-no law, no loyalty, no taboo-to claim her completely. Now Selene is caught in a storm of forbidden desire, torn between resisting the man who could ruin her and surrendering to the sinful pull that could destroy them both. Because the only thing more dangerous than his touch... is how much she wants it.

Queen of Bargains: Monsters Under the Mountain by ATConner

Selene was never meant to be part of this world. She had once been a medical student, living an ordinary life filled with textbooks, late-night study sessions, and the quiet certainty that magic was nothing more than fiction. Then, she woke up in a world ruled by monsters. For twenty-five years, she has survived on the outskirts of a human village, healing where she can, hiding where she must. She knows little of the High Fae, their courts, or their treacherous games. She knows only whispers-of a wicked queen named Amarantha, of a war that shattered kingdoms, of a High Lord with violet eyes and a smirk sharper than a blade. But when a raid on her village drags her Under the Mountain, Selene is thrust into a world of cruelty and deceit. Powerless and human, she should have been nothing more than another disposable servant. Instead, she catches the eye of Rhysand, Amarantha's right hand. To the world, he is a monster. A traitor. A willing pet in the queen's twisted court. But Selene has seen him at his most powerful. And now, she has seen him at his most broken. Forced into servitude, trapped in a palace where humans do not last long, Selene must navigate the deadly politics of a court built on suffering. But as she uncovers the truth hidden beneath Rhysand's carefully crafted mask, she begins to question everything she thought she knew-about this world, about him, and about the war that looms on the horizon. Because it was not fate brought her here. She was the obstacle to his fate. And fate is watching. all rights reserved to the original author

And what if the final wish could tear them apart forever? A slow-burn Girls' Love fantasy about healing, grief, magic, and the kind of love that asks you to stay even when the spell is gone.
