Sir Oswald Wealwright, pioneering industrialist and eligible bachelor, has never had any truck with occult nonsense or peasant superstitions. His manservant, abysmal poet and incorrigible daydreamer Johnny Burslem, thinks of little else.
Which is why, when a letter arrives sprouting moss and rust and demanding payment of an inexplicable debt, only one of the two men is prepared for the strange journey they must undertake.
There are things that lurk in the English countryside. And whatever your business may be, they have a thoroughly excellent understanding of how to make a deal.

jurdan - the joy of love
This is a follow up to the fanfic "Jurdan - The Pain of Love" by jurdanfanfr. I do not know this person and do not know where they intended to take this story, but I wanted to make a follow up to it and finish it with how I picture the story was resolved in my mind. I highly recommend reading that fanfic for more context and also because it is very well written. I am not the best writer and this is my first fanfic, so please feel free to give feedback if you want. No explicit smut, I don't feel comfortable writing it. I will put any trigger warning disclaimers on each chapter intro. Thank you for reading!
The Exiled Queen
"I've been warned in my ten years in Faerie to never make bargains with the Folk, but I am the one who can lie. The Folk should be warned to never make bargains with me." Takes place right after The Wicked King! Exiled to the mortal world, Jude begins to lose hope of returning to Elfhame. And revenge is not the only thing she seeks, she will stop at nothing to get back what she has earned. One thing she has learned well being raised in Faerieland: trickery and bargains are almost just as deceiving as having the ability to lie. Cover Art by @darkandbeautifulart, used with permission.

Fayre
Melissa Crawford thinks she's just a regular teenage girl. She goes to school. She has friends, boy problems, homework...you know, the typical teenage angst. But she couldn't be more wrong, for Melissa Crawford is not a mortal. Her adoptive mortal mother refused to give her up and hired a witch to erase the enchanting Faery child's memory, not realizing that things aren't that simple. You see, when she was a little girl, Melissa promised herself forever to her Leannan Sidhe (mate), a Fae Prince, and a promise to Fae is sacred. When the Fae Prince comes back to claim what's his, nothing will get in his way. "Mortals are so arrogant. So utterly narcissistic to think that they are the only intelligence in this world, to believe their realm is the only realm, their way is the only way. "Many of you believe us fairies only exist in little kids' fairy tales. We are so much more than that. We exist, living in the Realm just a blink away from yours. A few wrong turns in the park or the forest and you're there. We sometimes walk among you, and you're not even aware of it. Believe me, we exist. Across the globe, your kind calls us and our realm by different names...but as William Shakespeare once said- a rose by any other name..."Concluida
The Broken Myth
There is an old myth about fairies. How they were destined to destroy our kind. The werwolf kind. Thankfully it's only a myth... Or so I thought. Is it true or is it false? Can reality be twisted into a fantasy that no one can escape? Who can you trust and who can you not? These are all questions Max needs to ask herself in order to survive the truth.Concluida
The Trials
You were warned from a young age about the fair folk from your father, and that you should never make a deal with one-- no matter how dire your circumstances. But through a series of tragedies, you desperately made a deal with the fairy king himself for a second chance. On the fourth anniversary of the deal, he had come to collect his debt from you. In another moment of desperation, you once more made a plea with him for your freedom. The condition was that if you win his trials, you were free to leave but if you failed, you must stay in the fairy realm and wed him. With only your determination and skills, you must fight through each trial more treacherous than the last or be forever trapped. (Sequel to 'The Game').
CARDAN AND JUDE
Cardan Greenbriar and Jude Duarte, our one of the famous bookstagram couple from folk of the air series by holly black. What if they had a baby? Just some scenarios I imagined in my mind about them. For all those who wanted the series to never end.Concluida
Virulent Beauty ONC 2025
* Prompt 110: 20 days of freedom. Mod: 21 days. If the Stinking Corpse Lily had come from Scotland, the creature within it would have been named a member of the Unseelie Court. If from the Appalachians instead of Indonesia, it would have been called a Wendigo. And if it had come from the Mediterranean, perhaps it would have been a Dryad. But it's home had been dragged to a southern mansion on the Gulf Coast, to a people who thought the paranormal was a lie whispered by Satan to ears that wouldn't hear a sermon--even when a few of them knew better. But the Rafflesia arnoldii wasn't made for the subtropical swamplands of the coast, and needs nurturing to survive--and even more when it finally breaks free from it's bloom. The first line of defense is a young billionaire named Charles Bardot, a son of "the blood", and beyond him, his mother Cherish Claris. Neither of them is prepared to stand between humanity and a monster that refuses to fit the modern idea of rational. But if they don't, more people will fall to the creature that sees humans as their cattle.Concluida
