Seventeen-year-old Karasi Shujaa ain't afraid of no ghosts - although technically they are called roho mbaya - and poachers. Blessed by the gods of her tribe with the magic to mimic the powers of animals, Karasi hunts both down without a sense of fear-not an easy task with her 9 PM curfew. The only thing Karasi does fear is getting caught kissing her girlfriend, as being a lesbian is illegal in Kenya.

When a sacred lion cub-the source of Karasi's magic-is stolen by a poaching syndicate influenced by the demonic serpent Kifonyoka, it endangers the natural balance. However, before Karasi can rescue it, her father, a tribal man who neither believes in the gods nor their magic, ships her off to live in Washington D.C. 

Although her magic draining away, Karasi will fight for what she views as her birthright. With the support of her gods, Karasi must outwit Kifonyoka and his deadly disciples to rescue the cub. Or else Karasi would lose her magic, her mother's legacy, and the love of the girl of her dreams.Todos os Direitos Reservados

𝐜𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐝𝐞, de xo-charlii

cover by @JaelynnMoore 𝐆𝐚𝐛𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐥 It's so much easier to spread lies about people than it is to spread the truth. That's what Gabriel knows to be true, at least. According to everyone in his town, he's a monster. He doesn't deserve to be walking among the rest of them. That's far from the truth, though. He was never good at being alone, but it became something he was used to. After everything he'd gone through, he craved solitude. Until she showed up. She wiggled her way right into his heart and now all he craved was her. 𝐀𝐥𝐲𝐧𝐚 Moving to a small lakeside town in Washington was not where Alyna saw her life taking her. She also didn't expect that she'd fall so hard for the brooding mechanic who lived there. Everyone tells her that she should stay away from him. All of the rumors say that he's dangerous, but all she ever feels with him is safe. With obstacles at every turn, will their love be enough to endure even the worst challenge they'll face? Or will they fall apart under the weight? started: 12/15/2023 published: 05/18/2024 completed: highest rankings: #21 bwwm #66 ongoing

Living History, de AuroyaRhenyan

Rhenyan has been through a lot. Being the only Master of magic in existence will do that to a person. He and his trobah, Auroya, pride themselves on being ready for any possible situation. But the one thing Rhenyan could never prepare himself for is falling in love. Xena lives in a small town with her mother and 3 younger siblings. She hides a dark secret that only she and her mother know about, and her mother makes sure to abuse it at every turn. After she goes a step too far, Xena's quiet life is turned upside down as she becomes a rogue, wanted Soul mage. Rhenyan and Auroya receive an interesting job offer that eternally-curious Auroya can't refuse. While they learn more about Soul magicks and attempt a daring rescue & return mission, they struggle to not lose sight of their true selves before they can return home. But some revelations along the way promise a new normal, and an even more uncertain future for all involved.

My Fucked Up Fairytale, de pinenutters

TEASER: "No fiancée of mine needs to learn how to fight." His breath flows upon the prickling skin of my neck. I close my eyes, involuntarily shuddering in response. "All you need to know how to do is satisfy me." "How exactly am I supposed to satisfy you?" The answer to such a question is obvious, yet, like the idiot I am, I still asked him. "Blood...and of course, other means." BLURB: When college student Cyra finds her life falling apart after a brutal breakup, she wishes for an escape-only to awaken in a realm filled with sword-wielding vampires, deadly elves, and more fantastical creatures. Unfortunately for Cyra, she's been chosen to marry a powerful vampire prince... and kill him. Trapped between survival and a dagger with a destiny, she must navigate a world where fairytales come soaked in blood, sarcasm, and forbidden attraction.

Discovering the Ligon, de JadeRyan059

Warning: This story is for mature audiences only. It contains language and scenes that would get this story rated R if it was a movie. It is also RH - reverse harem. Blurb: When you make friends as children, you imagine you'll stay friends forever. It's a childlike hope and guilelessness about the real world. I had that with Ryker, Ryan, and Zeke. But everything changed when we turned 15. Ryan left first. Distanced himself from our group. Then Ryker and Zeke. Ryker abandoned me to the gossip from the incident while Zeke watched me verbally, and sometimes physically, be harassed. No one cared. Not them. Not the adults, the protectors in the Pride. I was an outcast because of my birth. The abomination that shouldn't exist. Finally, my 18th birthday was coming up. I could leave. Be free from the ridicule and dirty looks. Snide comments. Until Ryker returned with a secret about me and all hell broke loose. The question is... Will the guys stay this time or leave me to face this secret alone?
