Dimoria. A world where your status is determined by the colour of your blood. Red, blue, black.
When Kayleigh Bennett is thrust into a world she wished she would never be apart of, she must choose the right path to overcome the lies and betrayal that plague her every move.
Kayleigh Bennett has been kept hidden from the world by the woman who she believed was her mother. She is forbidden from using any of her abilities for fear that she will reveal who, or more accurately what, she is. When she goes out she is to wear powder on her face to hide the black veins protruding through her pale flesh. After leaving her home to go to the village, she becomes both a hero and a criminal.
Having exposed herself to the world, Kayleigh flees to keep her mother safe and entrusts the help of a young blue blood tracker to help her escape from the hands of the black blood royals chasing her. She meets people her mother warned her about and finds out her mother just might have been wrong about the world.
After a betrayal, Kayleigh is left wondering. Is there anyone you can trust in a world full of magic?
A/N-This is my first official story. It might be shit. It might be great. I'll try and update every week or so. Tell me what you think. Thx!

A light obscured often goes dark. Sabrina Verrun is a witch and the most gifted metallurgist her Hexen coven has seen in a century. Unfortunately, she has no interest in being a traditional metal-worker, repairing broken items and making trinkets to sell in the Hexen shop...she wants to create new things, things no one has ever seen before. While she dreams of devoting her life to her metal-working, her mother has other plans...she wants Sabrina to follow in her footsteps and take over as coven leader, putting aside metal in favor of assuming responsibility for the well-being of the other witches. Sabrina has no desire to do such a thing, and as she fights for control of her own life, she's determined to create something that proves her research is worthwhile, earning her the freedom she so desperately craves. But as those she lives with manipulate her, ignore her, and treat her as if she doesn't know her own mind, she eventually turns her attention to the one place she's forbidden from entering-the Schwarzwald, a magical, yet deadly, forest ruled by the elusive and powerful Forest King. Eventually, Sabrina finds herself willing to go to any lengths to control her own destiny, and the choices she makes along the way affect not only herself, but her coven, other magic users, and one important life yet to come. A light obscured often goes dark, and a passion can too easily become an obsession in this cautionary coming-of-age prequel to Witch, Wolf, Woods.Complete

The Prophecy: Pregnant With The Cold Prince's Heir
Prophecies and arranged marriages only exist in history books, right? That's what Giselle thought. Giselle returned home confused from 3 clinics after getting the news that she's pregnant. How can a virgin get pregnant? Upon arrival, she noticed a convoy of cars parked on her street, ignoring the buzz from the neighbors; she silently walked into her home. "Mom," she called out upon finding a group of bodyguards in their house. "Come to the living room, honey; we have guests," Mrs. Ramirez said. A nervous Giselle walked further into the house; the atmosphere was abit tense. Only then did she meet face-to-face with a man she thought existed only in her dreams. "Y... you," Giselle stuttered, her mouth open in awe. He stood tall, like a piece of art; his features were pleasing to the eye. His height, physique, and eyes would make even male models envious. He was dressed in an expensive suit with a golden crown on his head. Everything about him screamed wealth and power. "Are you done staring?" he asked; his voice was deep, smooth, and confident, snapping an embarrassed Giselle back to reality. Giselle didn't reply, but the man chuckled lightly, returning to his seat. "I believe your mother already explained the whereabouts of your father," he said. "If you sign this contract and become my bride, not only will you get the chance to see your father, but you'll also be the future queen of where I come from," he added. Giselle glared at the prince, ready to reject his offer. "Your Majesty, please give her time to think about it," Mrs. Ramirez cut in. She knew her daughter quite well; she wouldn't want to force her daughter into marriage, but she also wanted to rescue her husband. And so Giselle's life complications had just begun. First, the recurring nightmares; then the unexplained pregnancy; and now a prince trying to make her his bride. Will she agree to the marriage to save her father? What will happen to the strange baby she's carrying?
