HEIR | The Cursed Monarchy | Book 1 by marcellaiswriting

~ COMPLETE AND NOW AVAILABLE ON AMAZON ~ In the Five Kingdoms of Saol Eile, magic is the only currency and those who have the most cast long shadows across the land. Amidst lavish parties, sumptuous banquets, and sprawling castles, despicable tyrants have risen, calling themselves kings by right; emperors, by the laws of old magic, and monarchs, by the wealth they've procured. When it's rumored that an army of flesh-eating monsters has risen from the shadows, tyrant-kings are forced to submit to a far more dangerous power - the sorcerer standing at the head of it all: The Cursed One. Orphaned and penniless, eighteen-year-old Cecily Trask's magic has always been reluctant to emerge. But with the kingdoms at the brink of war, she vows to do whatever it takes to keep her people safe-even if it means breaking all the rules, reaching into the depths of her soul to unravel the bindings around her true power, and allying with the potentially dangerous prince, Daire Niadh, to do it. In a landscape thick with mistrust, desire, and incipient hope, Cecily and Daire cross paths in an unfamiliar world forever changed by violent forces neither of them understand. They should hate each other. They should want each other dead. But their grief both draws them together and breaks them down, until all they have left is their shared goal - to defeat The Cursed One, even though for Cecily, the journey means almost certain death. ❧ Copyright © Marcella Colavecchio, 2014 - 2020.

My Beloved Kitsune by WendyyWolfe

Belicia Brooks grew up in a loving, but mundane home. As an only child Belicia didn't take well to abstract events or drama and anything that upset her routine lifestyle was strictly prohibited. By her. But a secret lurked within her family. A family ancestry she knew nothing about and powers she was born with would soon surface, bringing with it a kind of chaos she never imagined. The new guy in her school wasn't like anyone she had ever known. His presence sparked things in Belicia she'd had yet to experience. Like turmoil. And confusion. And, telepathy? Thankfully, she had her best friend Ava Avila to confide in. But would Ava be on her side, or, as Ava was known for loving gossip and drama, could Belicia trust her enough to tell her about her inner dialogue with the new guy? ___________________ An ancient family secret is about to be exposed. In the unsuspecting suburb of Kingsley Summit, Washington, the local high school becomes a battleground of wills when it is discovered the fated mate of a powerful Kitsune family lives in the United States of America. She doesn't realize it but Belicia is about to become the reason two families clash in a medieval tale of jealousy and revenge when a tale as old as time comes to life. When the Zenko Clan, an ancient family of Kitsune is alerted that their sons fated mate is in peril of being lost to them by the Yako Clan, the contest of wits begins, to see who will capture her heart first. The only catch is, neither can reveal the true identity of the other. The battle must be won while in their human form. As the two families of Shape-Shifters clash, only one can come away victorious.

genevieve and the band of misfits by almosts

❝So we're basically manipulating people?❞ ❝We're not manipulating anyone. We're trying to prove to people that boys don't just like girls and girls don't just like boys; that everyone is equal despite their differences; that humans should never be seen as possessions that can be toyed with for however long we deem fit. We're changing the world, one completely misguided, overly-societal high-schooler at a time.❞ ➳ And so it begins; the inevitable altering of the world, captained by Genevieve and her band of mismatched misfits.

❖ ''ZF 16 Ariomma to unknown vessel. Please identify yourself. Over.'' ❖ Farah and Kazem are twins working aboard the Ariomma, a trading airship that sails the edges of a flat world. Out here is a frontier far from civilization: a place known as the Tideless, where water lifts from the surface of the sea, and great creatures rise with it. Only some of them are known. This is not a sailing path known for its safety, but the crew of the Ariomma have rarely feared their work. That is, until they find the carcass of another ship hanging in the Tideless, decimated by an unknown enemy. Soon, their flight to safety becomes a fight for their lives, as the monster turns its attention on the Ariomma... and them. ❖❖❖ Written for #NONC2022, a community-run novella festival operating in parallel with Wattpad's 2022 Open Novella Contest.

When Gods Cry by KairuEdwin

In Atlusa, when the war between good and evil ended, the people were forever divided into two tribes, the Kasuhi and the Amathu. The gods marked the Kasuhi with the mark of good for they had supported them while the Amathu were given the mark of evil for opposing the gods. They then gave the Kasuhi dominion over the Amathu so that evil would never raise again and to prevent another war from happening. Thousands of years later, animosity between the two tribes has culminated in a pending war and at the centre of this war stands Muma, an Amathu boy born with the mark of good. Stricken by grief when his rebel brother is executed, Muma embarks on a mission to free his people. Infiltrating the city of the Kasuhi, he seeks to bring down their society and free his people. Yet within their midst, Muma confronts a reality that dismantles his beliefs. The once clear line between good and evil blurs, challenging his convictions, his sense of purpose, and belonging. In this spellbinding tale, deception, secrets, magic, gods, and the irresistible pull of destiny propel Muma toward choices that will define the fate of a world on the brink of uncertainty and destruction.
