Emperor's Pampered Cannon fodder by Tahi18024

Being a modern free spirited girl, Gongsun Li couldn't accept her fate as a cannon fodder concubine when she found herself transmigrate into her favorite novel. So, she decided to ask the emperor for divorce and live a carefree life. But why does the icy cold emperor seems to explode like a raging volcano everytime she asks for a divorce?! Snippets: Gongsun Li was actually sleeping like a pig. A warm smile appeared in Zhu Zhen's face as he wrapped his arms around her tiny figure and pulled her closer ever so gently. Finding a sudden warmth, G.Li snuggled closer to the source in her deep slumber. She was so obediently lying in his arms, neither struggling nor cursing. Zhu Zhen wanted to stop the flow of time, then and there! "Silly stubborn wife, Why won't you obediently lie in my arms every night? Why won't you let me always hold you like this?", he whispered his complaints while nuzzling his nose in her hair. Suppressing the lump formed in his throat with a bitter smile he murmured, "Only if you would let me, Then I wouldn't be so desperate, Then I wouldn't be so hurt."

He Who Weaves Nightmares | PUBLISHED (Available in Print and eBook Format) by IraCrow13

When the three gods of the dream world accidentally caused a mass homicide, their father, Erebus, decided to punish them and send them to the mortal realm. The oldest brother, the weaver of dreams who could mimic any human form, found the humans dull playthings that were beneath him. The youngest, the weaver of surreal visions who could mimic any form of nature, had always been secretly in love with the complicated race. The middle child, the weaver of nightmares who could mimic animals and monsters, carried the guilt why all three were banished and he desired nothing more but to return to his post. The brothers were proud gods who worried that the world would become drearier without them to inspire the mortals through their dreams. They did not want to leave their crucial responsibility with their father who was too busy forming darkness. They always believed mortals were tedious and unimaginative creatures who needed their guidance. Until they met Selene. ** The Penguin Awards - Second Place (Fantasy) Raven Awards - Third Place (Fantasy)

It's a story of a mighty emperor, who rules the land upto horizon... A story of an innocent lady from a noble family who gets involved in a political marriage and becomes a low rank concubine... A story of an ancient Dragon Goddess who once flew down to the earth and brought tragic ends for several creatures of the earth. A love like no one ever seen that struggles to bloom their own love which is unknown to themselves... A story of a low rank concubine rising like the sun which could never be hidden, a goddess who is unknown to her own, a mother who can do anything to protect her child, a wife beloved, a betrayer of love or for love? A love like lotus, but in a goblet of poison. In revenge and in love a woman can be more barbarous than man. Definition of revenge is going to change here, beyond one can imagine. Jealousy is engraved to the heart, hatred is the darkness of the eye... Their past is history, present is the gift and future is mystery...

Psychopath (Disorder, 1){On Hiatus} by YourFemaleNarrator

Currently rewriting this whole thing from 3rd person POV to first person. I feel like this story would be so much better if it were written through the main character's eyes. Can you imagine the scariest dream you ever had is a reality you live in? Twin sisters born as a prophecy. One as bright as the sun itself, while the other as dark as the new moon. One suffers from the worst nightmares she can imagine. The other feels like she's the humanoid version of a living nightmare. Complete opposites, and yet they feel as if they're the same person. Velvet Noir tried the princess path, but an unexpected letter arrived in the middle of the first month at the royal university. An acceptance letter from a war college. Now the twins are separated. One still gets the nightmares while the other feels them. But what happens when the moon sister finds out there's a prophecy with the twins' names written all over it? Love, passion, hatred, betrayal. Velvet Noir goes through it all, but only one will unveil the truth.

Night has fallen. Silence is heard. The whole world is asleep. The Kingdom is silent. Except for one person. Who was awake the whole night, watching and listening to the silence. The people had rumors about him. They never saw his face but except his body and story. The story about him being a strange assassin and how he was good at hiding. How he was too intelligent. Nobody knew his name so they just called him "The Unknown Assassin". He stares and keeps an eye open for bad things to happen and stop it from happening. But one day, the Prince was forced to marry a stranger. A princess whom he despised because of the horrible tragedy that had happened because of her. But of course, the princess didn't like the idea of marrying the boy who hates her with all his guts but this all for everybody's future. Both were forced to marry each other even though they didn't want to but they just had to. From the people's eyes, the prince was kind. Which he totally was. And in the moon's eyes. When no one is awake. Not even them knows what happens at night. But they do not have to know. After all, when night falls. It's his time, to be awake at night

Ever wonder where your dreams go when you wake? Imagine if they drifted off, coalescing with the dreams of others to create a constantly shifting realm of imagination and memories. That is the realm that Shade the Scarecrow and Cole the Wanderer set off to explore. What begins as a simple research expedition escalates into a fight for survival and revelation. ---------------------------------- This is a work based on a D&D campaign I ran with my friends for 4 years (though it is not a "campaign journal"). It's part of a series of novellas I wrote for my players to let them know what their characters are up to. Naturally this means that it was written with the intent that the reader was already familiar with the world. I have done my best to adapt the story for new readers and included footnotes for lore that does not outright speak for itself. If you enjoy this, consider going to my main blog (taleofchampions.wordpress.com) where you can read the appendices and see new chapters early. Thank you for your time. ~-~smzippyy
