Psyche was destined to die, though it had not been easy for her killer to do so. Love found a way to save her, love from the man who was tasked to destroy her. And now she knew, almost at once, that she was a part of a plot to murder, or else, empower an evil force that had been feared for almost a century.
Madge didn't want to fall in love, but unfortunately, he found himself stricken by the arrow. When his master, an evil witch, orders him to kill an innocent girl named Psyche, he couldn't bring himself to fulfill it. Instead, he chose a different path: to make Psyche completely for own.

Danae, the Witch of Light
Danae has lived for well over two thousand years and she is tired of it, but unable to die. She has withdrawn from most magical creatures, including other witches, as she has seen far too many acts of selfishness and greed. The exceptions are the dragon Rikus and phoenix Zeal, who she counts as family, as well as the few friends who visit on occasion. And, of course, the pack of wolf-shifters located near the cave she calls home, who she's unable to avoid due to recurring conflicts. As all members of his pack, Aidric has grown up hearing the stories of the cruel treatment the pack has suffered at the hands of the Witch of the Mountain. As such, there's no doubt in his mind she is the one responsible for the disappearance of children from the pack. But when he goes to confront her, his opinion of her takes a drastic change. Having lived for so long and knowing she cannot die, Danae is determined to reject the Alpha of the wolf pack when it turns out he is her mate. Aidric, however, is equally determined to win her over and asking her to help find the missing children is a perfect way to keep her close. ----- Mature rating due to: explicit scenes, mentions of suicide attempts, thoughts of wanting to die, (magical) violence ----- This series will contain the following volumes: Volume 1 - Zoe, the witch of innocence (completed) Volume 2 - Crimson, the witch of night (completed) Volume 3 - Morana, the witch of life (completed) Volume 4 - Mirai, the witch of sight (completed) Volume 5 - Danae, the witch of light (completed) Volume 6 - Rheseis, the faerie of love (ongoing)Complete
1000 Years (Sigurda Saga Pt.1)
This is just the classic story of a human who fell in love with a faerie and got whisked away into the world of magic. For whatever reason, Finnegan Sliochd decides not to kill a faerie who does him no harm, and after many nights of peace, he is swept into a world of Wild Hunts, Nephilim, and ethereal deities - all culminating in a plot to save the world. No big deal. The oddest part, perhaps, is that the faerie he loves is the Phoenix, a creature of rebirth whose many faces all have varying feelings towards him and all Finnegan's former lives as well...and if they can't agree to unite back into one, the Phoenix might end up destroying itself.Complete
Mirai, the Witch of Sight
Mirai comes from a long line of witches who have been particularly gifted in using their inner sight. As such, she's trained her sight from a young age. She's always been a disappointment, however, as the only thing she's ever been able to see is the vague image of a girl. On her 18th birthday, Mirai discovers a mark on the back of her neck displaying the number thirty. From her first proper vision, she deduces that unless she finds the girl before the number reaches zero, both of them will die. Only being able to depend on her less than mediocre skills in seeing the future, Mirai sets out to find the girl before the time is up. Little does she know of the trauma the girl has suffered, nor that finding her is only the beginning. ---------- Mature rating due to: smut, violence, suicide (happens in the prologue while POV-character has her back turned), rape (happens in chapter 30 and will be mentions of it afterwards, fade to black, there will NOT be a trigger warning at the beginning of the specific chapter), violent death of babies, some rather bloody scenes, self-harm, extreme guilt. Note that a major part of this story focus on healing from and learning to live with trauma, so though you could potentially read it but skip some specific parts, if you're not comfortable reading something that deals with the listed topics, then this book won't be for you. ---------- This series will contain the following volumes: Volume 1 - Zoe, the witch of innocence (completed) Volume 2 - Crimson, the witch of night (completed) Volume 3 - Morana, the witch of life (completed) Volume 4 - Mirai, the witch of sight (completed) Volume 5 - Danae, the witch of light (completed) Volume 6 - Rheseis, the faerie of love (ongoing)Complete

And can love defy fate a second time?
The Witch's Mates
I am just about to turn around and head down the alley toward the street when I see two shadows step away from the wall a little farther down from where I am standing. I can't see any features, but I can guess from their statures that they are both men. I don't know what species they are though, but given that they just witnessed me kill a vampire I decide it's time to get the hell out of here. At least they aren't blocking my path to the street. Just as that thought crosses my mind, I hear the back door to the club open and close. I don't want to take my eyes off the men in front of me, but I have to see who just walked out. To assess the new danger. Before turning to look though, I pull out my remaining weapon also hidden in my boot. A silver dagger. It's only really good for killing werewolves, but it can do some damage to other supernaturals too. I give the figures in front of me one last look, they haven't moved at all, and then glance behind me. My breath stops for a moment, and it feels like my heart stops along with it. *** Willow is a witch who hunts down and kills other supernaturals. After the Great Massacre of the Wiccan Community, their population had been decimated. So while they try to rebuild their population and plan their revenge, they take out as many supernaturals as they can. But everything changes for Willow when she meets Keaton, Everett, Aizen, and Devlin. *** *This is a fantasy reverse-harem romance novel.

Cupid and Psyche |Lesbian Version|
Once there was a king and a queen with three lovely daughters. The youngest, Psyche, was so beautiful, so fair of face and form that she was revered throughout the land, and the people of her kingdom reached out to touch her as she passed. No suitors dared to cross her doorstep. So highly was she worshiped that Psyche was deeply lonely. Her beauty became legend, far and wide, and it was not long before words reached the ears of Venus. Tales of the young princess enraged the jealous goddess, and she made plans to dispose of her. Venus called upon her own daughter, Cupid to do her bidding. It was meant to be a quick mission except Cupid did not expect to find herself entranced by the same passion she inflicted on others. |Lesbian retelling of the Roman Mythology|Complete
The Golden Dragon's Hoard
Astraeus, a baby dragon, escapes from his old coven and stumbles upon a little shop that he spends months stealing from and hiding in to survive. The witch and familiars who live there are... strange. They know he takes from them but don't put up different wards, don't do things that could hurt him. They know that he has a hide out in the aster tree, that he lives close-instead of getting rid of him and forcing him to move, they visit him. Talk to him, leave him things, they're kind. Different. Stranger than any other witch or familiar he's ever met. Stray is not used to things that don't hurt. The gentleness is terrifying. He'd rather stay away from them than learn why they don't have sharp tongues or bruised knuckles. However, on the night of a bad storm, he gets trapped inside of the shop, trapped with kind strangers. After getting caught, he discovers another dragon. He learns that life is not meant to be painful. He learns that he can be loved. He's allowed to want things with them. To eat, to not fear the cold, to live instead of survive. Everything changes and Stray is determined to make them his hoard, to make it complete.Complete
