After a failed assassination attempt, a princess leaves her life in a magical world to live a normal life among humans, but leaving royal life behind isn't as simple as she had hoped. Upheaval in the royal family follows closely behind her.

Princess Alyssa doesn't like living in Opa Palace in the magical world of Topia. She hates the politics and façades surrounding her, so she plans to renounce her royal title and go to a regular university on Earth. Everything is set up, ready for her to live the life she always wanted.
However, a traitor in the palace doesn't want her to leave... Or live.
Alyssa flees to Earth after a failed assassination attempt. Under an alias, she manages to go to university. She has the life she wanted, but cannot shake the shadow of her royal life. With the help of friends both new and old, she must unravel a plot far greater than she could've ever imagined.

This story mixes the medieval aspects of fantasy with modern day life. Magic, romance and secrets can be found within.

Heptagram (Unleashed, Book 1) by Naomi_Anika

When her mother sends her to a mysterious man who may be able to help with her problem, Lyssa could never have imagined that she would end up entangled in such a mess. Not only is the person who was supposed to help her missing, but she also finds herself in the very place she had dreamed of ever since she was old enough to understand what she wanted. Too bad the prestigious Aletheia Academy is nothing like she imagined. She will soon realize that even the walls in this place have secrets. Students are going missing in the middle of the night, and the high-ups act like they saw nothing. There's an extremely annoying young man who treats her like she's the center of all the problems occurring at the Academy, and her mind popping out new memories every five minutes is no help at all. Oh, and of course, there's the challenge of actually surviving the near-death race she signed up for without even knowing it. One month has never seemed so long as Lyssa tries her best not to get killed, kidnapped, or have her mind reduced to shreds - all while keeping in mind her main goal, without anyone else finding out about it.

The Book of Trials || ONC 2019 by Kehanni

When Veia Phelde is cursed, she hardly expects the ruin it will invoke, but will breaking the curse come at a cost more than its worth in blood? +++ Veia Phelde had been satisfied with her life in her small cottage in the woods, never bothering anyone save for her job as a blacksmith's apprentice. But when she loses her job, Veia is forced out of her comfort zone only to run into a simple book that means so much more than she wants it to. With blank white pages and a title carved by knife, the single word that scars the leather can only be the work of fate, and the danger it contains... well, let's just say that's fate, too. When a devilishly handsome traveler offers to take her to the City of Magic to break the curse, Veia finds herself hopelessly entangled in a danger more powerful than she could ever know. +++ ~ Featured Wattpad Picks: Hidden Gem (May 2020) ~ @StoriesUndiscovered Diamond list (2019) ~ 2nd place in action/adventure, Coral Awards 2021 ~ 2nd place in action/adventure, The Pantheon Awards 2020 ~ 3rd place in adventure, The Blue Rose Awards, August 2019 ~ Written for the Open Novella Contest 2019, gen fic open prompt (since expanded; 45k word count) ~ Also available on Inkitt, Prose, Sweek, and Quotev (but Wattpad has the best version) ;) Beautiful cover by @TheFashionPixie

A Forest of Secrets by LRamirezN

⭐ FEATURED ⭐ 02/16/2018 Longlisted, Wattys 2018 ✅ COMPLETE Jocasta's nineteen years of peaceful existence in a little village of the Kingdom of Ontur blew up in pieces without much warning: Grandmother had a secret, an old pact with a mysterious man-a pact that, apparently, Jo and her new tagalongs - a flamboyant mage, a goofball knight pledge and a young alchemist-now had to take care of, thanks to the untimely death of the King of Ontur. A quest to find an ancient place, concealing an artifact of unmeasurable power and rumored to be deadly. And posthaste, before it falls into the wrong hands. That's something all grandmothers ask of their granddaughters sometime in their lifetime, right? And all that was at stake was the stability of the kingdom: no pressure. Set in a world where magic is vital, where mages are as equally feared and shunned as they're needed. A temporarily Kingless kingdom where vultures wait for the perfect time to take a plunge. A world where secrets and lies are as abundant, dangerous and necessary as magic. But something else brews in the Kingdom of Ontur: something bigger than Jocasta and her Grandmother's secrets. ⭐ 1st place in Fantasy, The Crystal Crown Awards 2017 || Highest ranking : #46 in Fantasy 03/04/2018 #writteninaction you can read a review here: https://www.wattpad.com/471550430-island-of-lost-toys-reviews-great-reads-for-the

Scars of Gold by makexbelieve

When Kacia discovers the forbidden magic running through her veins, she is given a choice - pretend her powers belong to her worst enemy, and use them to help him cement his claim to the throne - or forfeit her life. Can she play along for long enough to plot Ash's downfall, or is their fake truce about to turn into something a lot more complicated? ✨ Throughout fifteen years of Lathrian rule, Kacia has dreamt only of her family and her freedom. After she braves a storm-tossed mountainside in search of reunion with a mother she hasn't seen for a decade, she discovers that she has the power to mimic the magic of others - an ability that sees her sentenced to death by the Lathrian Kingdom which controls her people. That is, until the Lathrian king demands she uses her powers to legitimise his stepson's claim to the throne. If she agrees, she can keep her life - for now. Kacia becomes caught between the volatile brothers she didn't know existed and a prince who is more sympathetic than he seems. The choice she makes, between violent rebellion or slow moving negotiations, might alter the fates of her people - but only if she can decide before the bargain that prolonged her life runs out. Family and freedom may be the things Kacia wanted most, but to gain one she might have to sacrifice the other.
