A monster. A wretch. A villain.

Reina wasn't born evil. She was made. Neglected and abused by her father as a child, she only ever knew hate. Once  her power began to manifest itself, she did with it what her heart desired. Killed. She was born with the power of another kind of darkness. A depthless and merciless darkness that she could manipulate and use as she pleased, and with the hate that filled her heart, it only grew. 

She battles herself, her power. It grows stronger, and so does she, and she will conquer the world with it. When she hears of the Crown Prince, her goal is to find him, take him captive, use him to her advantage, and make him her slave. 

The Jester. His loyalty to her goes beyond just devotion. He loves her, and she has no clue. He only wishes for her approval of him. Of his cunning tricks. His good looks. He will do whatever she asks of him. Even if it means risking his own life. 

When the human King and Queen fight to ally with the Kingdom of Fae across the ocean, Reina risks being defeated. But if she can get to them first, the King and Queen will be the ones to suffer. The Fae listen to their own laws and rules, only persuasion and manipulation will tempt the Fae Queen Hyara to supply her with ammunition and an army for the war to come. 

She's tested, deceived, loved, and hated. A brutal war threatens her future reign. A King and Queen stand in her way. A Fae Queen has a decision to make. And the devoted Jester and enemy Prince find themselves caught in her game. 

Only the darkest hearts will survive.

Bad Fae | romantasy | Bad Fae #1 by writeriz
43 parts Complete
*now complete* Bad fae. As though there's such a thing as a good fae. Since the fae were exiled from their Otherworld to the human world, Aegrath has been a continent under precarious truce. Hatred runs deep for the atrocities committed in the war following the Return. So, what did this hybrid bastard princess decide to do? Yeah, steal from the arrogant arseholes. My escape nearly ends in an execution when a dark fae assassin decides to save my life. Now that life belongs to Dain of the Voidsworn under magical geas. The fae responsible for killing the only people I had ever loved. He owns me. He controls me. He hates me. He craves me. But no less than I hate and crave him in return, as obsession flares between us. He would destroy the whole world for me, as long as we don't destroy each other first. Is this merely Fate's cruel idea of a joke or is there some other reason the Goddess has forced the two of us together? As my connection to my darkling fae side grows stronger, truths come to light that have the very real power to topple the fragile peace holding Aegrath from the brink of another war. And Dain and I have no choice but to stand against them all together. For fans of Sarah J. Maas and Holly Black. These are not the fairies of your childhood. They are dark and dirty, and sooner kill you as love you. They might even kill you because they fell in love with you. They do nothing unless it suits them, and they will steal your heart.
A Thorny Tale by Kitsuneume
13 parts Complete Mature
Foreword: A plant can thrive or a plant can die with or without attention. Whether it's lovingly nurtured or butchered makes no difference really but sometimes they can come back stronger than ever. It's a relationship where we need each other more than we think about really and we take them all for granted like we do each other. One seed can sow doubt or it can sow hope. Wonder what would happen to the world if such a seed existed inside a person and it finally bloomed? Synopsis: Briar was made a slave and an orphan on the same day she was born. She serves at the castle she was born in, the court of winter. Everyone can command her to do tasks and she has no freedom to leave. Those at the top of this world are the ruling Fae, next are ruling humans, next Fae, free humans, protected slaves and then the banished ones. At least as a slave she has a chance at earning her freedom from a ruling Fae to pardon her. She is also something more which is discovered as she grows up but she must keep it hidden to protect herself. As she masters her skills, she, along with her friends, are given the opportunity to leave and earn her freedom. It's the first step in finding herself and her answers and perhaps it could change her life in ways she couldn't imagine when she was taking everyone's orders in the kitchen. But first she must rescue a prince from a dungeon... (Small warning) Contains suggestions of non consensual sexual relationships of a business kind but no graphic detail. This is a story about a main female character in a reverse harem situation as well. (Book cover made from Book Covers app)
Born from Disaster by erinapatra
2 parts Ongoing
Reina is a young woman who spent 21 years clueless about this other world, this other her. She discovers that she possesses extraordinary powers on her birthday, which marks her last day of peace. Shielded from the truth since the beginning of her life, Reina is initially conflicted and hesitant to embrace her abilities. Reina faces the revelation of her true identity as she navigates a new world filled with dangerous monsters, ancient prophecies, and hidden secrets. While Reina's path is primarily solitary, her new life will call for new acquaintances, perhaps bonds. Reina embarks on a quest to fulfill her destiny, forcing her to confront her weaknesses and embrace her true potential. As Reina delves deeper into the mysteries of her past and the powers within her, she realizes that her role is different than what she was promised. From University to Academy, she always had a choice. But when fates twist and turn, will she be prepared to handle it? "Born from Disaster" is a tale of magic, adventure, and self-discovery, exploring the themes of identity, emotions, and responsibility. On her journey across the realms, she wrestles with destiny, confronts darkness, and discovers what it means to truly belong. -------- ALSO I'll try to post every week on Fridays at 6pm. Cover by me. (I signed, do not use it for profit.) Main male character is (obviously) inspired by Kim Taehyung, but this is not a fan fiction. The prologue might be using the third person, but the point of view of the book is first person. /!\ The book sometimes will describes violent fighting scenes. TW will be put before any chapter that has violence. /!\ I would also like to apologize in advance if there is any mistake or typos, English is not my first language. Thank you for the interest you'll have for my book.
