Shadowmancer by AJLocker

For the last ten years, creatures known as Shadows haunt the town of Newdale, hunting the townsfolk and causing mischief and mayhem wherever they can. Some in the city rise up boldly to try to fight against these foes, but not Darian. Sixteen-year-old Darian Danforth VanEaton has never had any grand ambitions or outstanding life goals. He is content in his life as the son of a gardener, and he has never minded the family's tradition to send one person to the Pontsworth Academy of Magical Defense. He is perfectly willing to sit back and let life happen however it desires. Big plans and goals are for other people, not for him. He will do his best at whatever swordwork or mathematics homework is set before him, but he has no grand illusions that anything he could do will change the world. Darian is soon to learn that such a disconnected outlook on life is not healthy when surrounded by a pack of deadly monsters with nothing but a small suitcase to protect himself and the Shadowmancer himself closing in on him. Perhaps in order to truly live his life, it is time to make some decisions. Anticipated length: 70 chapters Updates every Monday

Like fire we burn by wordwitch423

The Shadow of the East is a monster. Tyrin Caderyn is no better. They've met before, but memory painted each a ghost and a flicker of familiarity. Both of them hail from strong and vicious bloodlines. Time and tragedy and choice bind them together. War is on the horizon, and Shadow is in the midst of schemes and plans greater than her. She's on the run from a man she learned to hate, and her own past. Her secrets can destroy her. Tyrin is an Elite warrior for the Ilystari Realm and answers only to the king and queen. When he's sent to hunt down a powerful female, he doesn't question the orders. But when he meets her, everything changes. Darkness encroaches and alliances break. Bonds are formed and friendships shatter. There is a greater power at play than either of them realized. Has fate drawn them together, or something stronger? -- She huffed a quiet laugh. "Well, I suppose I'll get paid one way or another for his death. If you let me keep his body, you have a deal." Tyrin darted his eyes back to gauge the honesty of her response, but she sounded sincere. He finally nodded. Her grin was nothing shy of wicked. Something inside his chest reared it's sleeping head and purred at that expression. "I hope you and I never meet again. These Realms aren't ready for us." Weren't ready for her, he wanted to correct. A shiver of a promise zinged through his blood and he grinned back at her. "What's your name, little assassin?" She started melting back into the shadows - back the way she'd come to give him the privacy of the kill. "I am no one and nothing. Forget about me, pretty male. It won't do to dwell on a shadow." And then she was gone.
