The Captured Princess
Princess Adira never wanted to have a royal title, and she most certainly never wanted all the pressure that came with it. She just wanted to have the freedom to be herself. To practice sword fighting for fun, and to be with the one she loved, Theo. But of course, that was something that could never happen. Theo was just a guard, someone her father would never allow her to marry. Adira thought that being forbidden to marry Theo would be the worst thing to happen to her. But oh, how wrong she was. In the blink of an eye, her world is turned upside down. She is kidnapped by an embittered mercenary with a thirst for revenge and his peculiar sidekick, taken away from her home and used as leverage for the man's wishes. All is dark and she sees no hope. But she is not alone. [ Highest Rank #619 in Fantasy ]

Silent Rebellion
Keep in mind this was my first story. Imagine being trapped in a world that decides everything for you -- how much you eat, how much sleep you get, who you love, where you live, even when you die. So when Evelyn is chosen along with 47 other "young leaders," what will happen when she meets them? And when the impossible happens, what will happen to those young leaders? (Think Hunger Games mixed with Matched mixed with a little bit of Divergent, as those were my inspirations as I wrote)

She is a weapon of mass destruction, a possessor of unrestrained power and the best chance her people have at freedom.

Alpha Orion
Reylin has survived what most could not. Fierce, free-spirited, and unbreakably strong-willed, she's one of the last humans still alive and free. She was only thirteen when the Lycans-monsters cloaked in flesh and fangs-descended from the shadows and took everything. Her parents. Her home. Her safety. Now, ten years later, Reylin is a warrior in one of the last hidden human settlements, with only her younger brother left to protect. She refuses to bow. Refuses to break. And she'd rather die than become a slave to the beasts who ruined her world. But survival gets harder by the day. The Lycans are not just strong. They're fast, brutal, and natural-born predators. Since the Great War, they've established a merciless new order-one where humans are hunted, enslaved, or wiped out entirely. And Reylin's time is running out. When her village is raided by Lycan soldiers, she risks everything to protect her brother only to be captured by the infamous Alpha of the North. Alpha Orion. Crowned in blood and forged in war, Orion is one of the ruthless Alpha who led the Lycans to victory. A cold and calculated killer, he sees humans as weak, defiant creatures undeserving of breath. He doesn't hesitate to crush rebellions, burn settlements, and extinguish hope. Until her. The defiant human girl who won't bow, who tried to kill him. The one his beast calls mate. Orion is disgusted by the bond, repulsed by the idea of being tied to a human, but his instincts scream to claim her, protect her, destroy anything that touches her. And when secrets from the war begin to surface, loyalty is tested, and bloodlines come into question, one thing becomes terrifyingly clear: He may hate her kind. But he will burn the world before letting her go.

Catalyst [Unedited, rough]
"God my emotions were on a fucking roller coaster today. If I'm not nervous, I'm scared, if I'm not scared, I'm disgusted and if I'm not disgusted, I'm in fucking love." ~~~ In a world of two different types of people: the people of the Clans and the powerless -who know nothing about the Clans- a lot can happen. A group of runaways are rebelling together. They don't want control over the Clans, just restrictions. Rules that limit what a person can do with their power. What happens when love grips onto Multi? There will be betrayal, there will be tears, but most importantly there will be drama. Maybe, a little bit of action as well. Add a dark past to the mix and you have Catalyst. *This is my first original story, I am not, in any way professional. If you don't like the way it's written give me tips on how to fix it. But please don't hate. Anyways, if you chose to read this you will make me one of the happiest people alive.* This story is NOT edited. ~xXRainbow_OreosXx~

Rebellion
Picked for the WattVamps February Showcase & now a Wattpad Dark Fantasy featured story! The Risen Series - Book 1 Rebellion I've been a cardholding member of the undead for centuries, torn away from the sun by a vampire with no care for human life. From the moment I opened my eyes to the night and had my first craving for blood, my Maker twisted and moulded me into exactly what he wanted; trapping me in his hold. Until one day he let me go. Content to live out eternity as no more than a shadow, I do my best to stay out of trouble. But trouble always had a way of finding me. During a hunt, I run into another vampire doing his best to go unnoticed; one so ancient the air around him reeks of power, and he claims he's just escaped imprisonment from the very council that used me to their own ends. Atanas demands I help him until he regains his strength so he can finish what he started a century ago, but I'm not sure that's all he wants from me. And while I'm no supporter of the council he seeks vengeance against, there are secrets that bind my life to theirs, and I know better than most that disloyalty means death. But in the shadows, a rebellion has been brewing, and I might be more important to both sides than I could ever have imagined.
