Purple and Gold (The Many Colours of Life and Death AU)
Tired of seeing all those RusAme stories? Or those historical ones that only contain countries from WWI, and only have ships in them (not the boat kind): Well, this book doesn't have either! It has historical main characters from before the 1900s, no ships and lots of action and violence! :D Sadly, this does not contain any actual history, mainly just random countries who didn't even live at the same time fighting each other. It was mainly for fun. Credit to @AdranRavenCH for coming up with the name for the AU (and possibly the series) Imagine if Countryhumans each had a power. One power each. The ability to manipulate the mind, for example. Being able to control fire or water. Turning everyone you touch into solid Gold. Alliances created. Trust broken. Friends and allies betrayed. Lies. Blood. Death. War. Gold.Complete
The Raven Ribbon
In the shadows of Florence's ancient streets, a woman's search for freedom ignites a war between Heaven and Hell. Karla seeks escape in Italy's romantic vistas, hoping to shed the scars of her abusive past. Instead, she finds herself in the arms of Harrut, a fallen angel whose demonic hunger masks a love that could reshape creation. Their passion awakens something darker than either imagined - a power that makes gods tremble. As their forbidden union draws the attention of both Heaven and Hell, Karla discovers she shares her soul with Medusa, the legendary Gorgon whose curse of turning men to stone was born from similar wounds. Together, they become a force that threatens the very foundations of divine order. Now, with armies of angels, demons, and mystical beings converging for an apocalyptic battle, Karla must choose: remain the victim she was molded to be, or embrace the monster within and rewrite the rules of existence itself. In this sensual and darkly poetic tale, myth and reality intertwine, challenging everything we believe about power, redemption, and the price of true freedom. "The Raven Ribbon" weaves a spell that will leave readers questioning the nature of divinity long after the final page. Some ribbons, once unspooled, can never be rewound. There are forty-four chapters.Complete

IF YOU ARE ONE TO READ BOOKS BY THE LAST CHAPTER TO SEE IF YOU ARE INTERESTED, CHAPTERS TOWARD THE END OF THIS BOOK CONTAIN HUGE SPOILERS THAT MAY RUIN OR ALTER THE DESIRED EXPERIENCE AND ENJOYMENT AND IF YOU STILL WISH TO READ THE LAST CHAPTER I SUGGEST CHAPTER 53! Info of my writing style and this book: • This book is written from the first-person point of view. Everything he thinks about; everything you read, will be the exact moment of everything that's happening. When Nathaniel gets cut off and interrupted, his thoughts will be interrupted as well. • I'll put seven periods to indicate a change in the scene; to show that time has passed since the last scene. • Bolded names are important characters to Nathaniel and the story • This book contains vulgar and sometimes erotic descriptive language. • This book is targeted toward a young adult audience.Complete
