The Dance of Shadows
Uelhara's tale begins in the heart of the Whispering Woods, an ancient and enigmatic forest where the veil between worlds is at its thinnest. Born to a lineage of elven guardians who protected the woods from the encroaching darkness, she was the youngest of three siblings. Her mother, an accomplished druid, taught her the sacred ways of the forest, while her father, a renowned wizard, introduced her to the arcane. As she grew, Uelhara's innate magical abilities surpassed those of her family, and she found herself drawn to the darker, more volatile aspects of her craft. Against her parents' wishes, she delved into the study of shadow magic, finding solace in its seductive embrace. Her thirst for knowledge led her to discover a hidden tome within the ruins of an ancient elven city, buried deep within the forest's heart. This grimoire, bound in the skin of a long-forgotten creature, contained spells and incantations that had been lost to time. Consumed by the power within its pages, Uelhara became a sorceress of unparalleled might. Her newfound power, however, came at a cost: she was exiled from her home and family for consorting with the very forces they had dedicated their lives to combat. For centuries, Uelhara roamed the lands, seeking to understand and master the shadowy arts she had embraced. She encountered beings of myth and legend, forged alliances with the unsavory, and battled the forces that sought to destroy her. Through her travels, she grew to appreciate the delicate balance of light and dark, and her heart softened to the plight of those who suffered at the hands of the unchecked powerful. She now wields her sorcery not just for power, but to protect the innocent and bring equilibrium to the world she once thought she could control.Complete![The Styles Mansion [h.s]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/233626556-256-k961741.jpg)

The Dragon's Match
She did not want to match with one of his kind; he did not want to match at all. Lillian Adams was set to inherit her father's dukedom- once she had made a suitable match, one that was not of the fae, and certainly not one that was Aëghan Dranora- the unpredictable and darkly attractive male that was lingering around her family's estate. Having spent four long years in their world, she was no stranger to the cruelness of the fae. But why was it only in his presence that she felt calmer than she had in years, that made her stir with yearnings of desire she had never felt before? Knowing all that she did about him, she should resist the pull that she feels for him... Aëghan had one purpose in this world- to find a way out of it. It was the only thing he lived for, the only thing guiding his every action. Until her. He could not allow himself to nurture the attraction he had for Lillian Adams, he couldn't allow anything, especially not a human woman that made his soul come alive, to come between him and his ultimate goal- to leave this world and return to his own. And Lillian was just that- a distraction, a hindrance. But the desire of his mind went against the desire of his heart as even the Gods urged their union. Aëghan was not convinced he would be able to make the choice should the time arrive when he had to- her, or his world and people.Complete
