Heart of Crystals by Berlykate

"Always have to get in my way, don't you?" The girl sneered coldly. He shrugged sending her a knowing grin, "I guess I just can't resist trying to capture your attention." "Charming," she stated flatly, "But my attention isn't something you should want." "Oh I beg to differ." "You would," she rolled her eyes, "It is your immense stupidity I find most intriguing about you." "Such flattery," he smirked, "Careful sweetness, I might get the wrong idea." "Well allow me to make things crystal clear." ••• Cerise and Azure find themselves on the same side of the conflict- if only temporarily. Blaine finds himself uncovering the secrets of his very being. And all three are seeing the world as they know it shift into something unrecognizable. They come from very different backgrounds, but must find a way to work together to accomplish their objectives. It's chaos when they're together, but can they overcome it all to uncover the mystery before them?

Flight Risk by Voyageavecmoi

When visiting Canada for a wedding, a commitment-averse dive instructor must pretend to date her Australian seatmate to avoid conflict with her ex and judgmental mother. *** Audrey Clarke rarely felt like other women her age. Not as a teen who'd never gushed about gorgeous celebrities, nor at almost thirty, with no desire to marry, have kids, or settle down. She would much rather explore reefs in Southeast Asia and adventure around exciting places. Even when she meets travellers with similar dreams, none are the right romantic match. Until Caleb. When flying home to Canada for her friend's wedding, Audrey dreads confronting the pain she caused her ex and facing her judgemental mother. It drives her to connect with her seatmate, Australian environmental scientist, Caleb, who also craves a distraction. Despite his charm, he is enigmatic about the cause of his stress. They agree to fake a relationship to make their lives easier. The more time they spend together, the more real their act feels. Will Audrey be brave enough to share her true feelings before the trip is over? *** Featured on - Ambassador's recommendations "Aces!

The Wicked Blessed by Powerbluess_

A broken boy fills his lungs with gold Because a fox stole his breath away. And a girl...a girl is almost always on fire. But these are the way of the Wild The Wicked And the Blessed. ________________________________________ Seventeen-year-old Ethan Palmer has no future, no reason to keep going. He's struggling to exist in a world that doesn't seem to want him in it and there's a cliffside in Whitefish with his name on it. He doesn't think it's his therapist's fault she can't fix him or decode his metaphors mainly because he doesn't believe he'll be here long enough for it to matter. And maybe he wouldn't if he hadn't had a run-in with a boy named Fox who has never told a lie in his life and a girl, a strange girl, with hellish innocence he can't quite put his finger on. Ethan soon realizes that there is a darker evil wreaking havoc through town, playing with the lives of his friends and family. The forest holds arcane secrets and the future he didn't think he had takes place in a world where even immortal faye have something to run from. There's a deadly ancient storm brewing over Whitefish and everyone is taking cover. He least expects Fox to tie himself to him, to find friendship in a strange inhuman boy-boundary issues and all-as he lay trapped between an otherworldly fight and the afflictions of his own mind.

You Are the Shell to My Tortoise | ✓ by LotteStarburst

Nolan, an unapproachable guy who ignores the existence of all his schoolmates, sleeps in all of his classes. Normally, this wouldn't be Chelsea Arnold's problem--she does her best to pay attention in class and attends gym like a good, normal student. Unfortunately, she just so happens to be his assigned desk partner in many classes. She's frequently forced to wake him in English class and ends up earning the unofficial title of Nolan's Wake-up Alarm--a title that nobody in the entire school covets. The last thing she wants is to interact with him more than she absolutely has to. One day, their gym teacher sends her to bring him back to class, which he always skips for some reason. When she accidentally shines her flashlight in his sleeping face, it triggers a chain of events that gradually intertwines their lives together. It's hard to be a normal student when you start befriending the school oddball. It doesn't help that he has more secrets than the Big Ben has stairs. ----- Complete.

A Pet for the Dragons by annablazer

❝Three dragons and their naughty little pet.❞ There's a rule in piracy - never fuck with the Dragons because they burn you alive. Literally. I'm not a fan of following rules, especially when the Dragons' hoarding obsession makes them the wealthiest patrons. I shouldn't be surprised when I'm kidnapped by the dragons upon failing to fulfil my end of an important deal. As if my luck couldn't be more of a bitch to me, I get kidnapped by none other than the three Dragons from one of the most powerful clans in the Arctic- Radrox, Ivret and Zorge. Now that they have me, I must pay for my failed deal in cash or kind. But that's not what they seem to be interested in, especially with the dwindling population of dragon ladies and their dangerous obsession with me. Those three dragons are definitely going to burn me but with a different kind of fire. ~ It can be read as a stand-alone book. Themes: slow burn, some BDSM, smut (loads of it), dirty talking, knotting, breeding, reverse harem, romance, kink exploration, action, world-building and a purely character-driven plot with wholesome and humorous moments :) What's not in the book? - Grape. Even though there's a power imbalance between the FL and the MLs, whatever happens between them and her involves consent. No cheating. The MLs don't do each other in this book.

Learning, tinkering, exploring new ways to hone her skills. The taut pressures to be better turned her brittle coal into diamonds- and her efforts eventually paid off. Her discoveries in astronomy brought numerous opportunities for cultural development, earning her a shiny new spot in the Academy and a chance to place amongst some of the greatest minds Piltover has to offer. Unbeknownst to the exalted council, she holds a past that could bring all she and her family have worked for to ruins. . . . (My first story!! I'm excited to put stories onto paper (digital space??) finally. I really 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 hope this turns out well, with luck I can execute the story I envision with minor obstacles. I also have no idea if I should schedule chapter releases since this is just a project I'm doing for gits and shiggles. Have a lovely read!) Made with the help of @livissworld. ((FAIR WARNING: This story will not skimp over violence or abuse, even if only briefly mentioned in a couple of chapters. Possible trigger warnings include but ARE NOT limited to; violence, verbal abuse, physical abuse, mental instabilities or illnesses such as schizophrenia or multiple personality disorder, reference to self-harm, and eating disorders.
