Beauty and the Beast meets the Labyrinth in the story of a woman lost and a man who couldn't care less.
I made a slight mistake. And by slight, I mean an uncharacteristic lapse in judgement has landed me in a place that my rational mind cannot explain, and my body cannot escape. A land full of strange creatures and decaying landscape all ruled by quite possibly the rudest, most rotten person I've ever had the misfortune of meeting.
Luckily, I'm a woman quite capable of adapting to my surroundings and I have no problem going toe to toe with my grumpy adversary. I might even turn this dismal place around if I'm here long enough.
I wonder, though.
For someone who insists he prefers a solitary existence, he sure seems to pop up to antagonize me often enough.
Imagine my surprise to find the one person I wanted to avoid is the one I've come to crave more than life itself.

I asked. "You told me, silly." "No I didn't. And I never said anything about a letter." I said firmly. Emma fell asleep on the plane and woke up in a mythical kingdom. The place was spoken about in legends and myths only, but it doesn't exist on any map.

However, she keeps getting threats from an unknown stalker who kills her loved ones one by one. But would returning to her home end her problems, or would the stalker still torment her?Complete

Book 1: Veil of Shadows
I'm Ivy Hilton, and I screwed up. Big time. One, I'm one of the most powerful wizards in my world, and the next, I'm half-magic, stranded in the mortal realm, and fighting for my life. Why? Because I thought I could outsmart another wizard who's just as stubborn and reckless as I am. Spoiler: I couldn't. Now, the only way to get home is to find some mythical place called the Garden of Stone. Yeah, it sounds made up to me too, but it's my only shot. Oh, and did I mention there are powerful beings-disguised as humans, of course-who want me dead before I can even get close? Fantastic, right? My magic's running low, I've got no allies, and the longer I stay here, the more I realize that maybe this whole mess is way bigger than me. But hey, no pressure. If I fail, it's not just my problem-it's the end of both our worlds. So yeah, no big deal.Complete
The Serpent King's Labyrinth
Labyrinth inspired. Hermione Granger convinced Draco Malfoy to stay during the battle, and Voldemort made her pay the price. Struck down by a curse meant to destroy, her body survives, but her mind is trapped in a prison of calcification. Draco will stop at nothing to find a way to set her free. Haunted by what he let happen, he disappears with her into the Scottish Highlands with her, where magic runs thin and the world forgets. There, he builds a kingdom made in her image, and a labyrinth of trials, riddles, and many twists and turns. Please note: This story is canon divergent. If you're a canon purist, this may not be the fic for you. Some characters who died in the books or films are still alive here, either for plot reasons or simply because I love them too much to let go. I'm still discovering my voice as a writer. This is my second fanfic (my first is still a work in progress and actively being edited), so you may notice slight style variations as I learn through trial and error. Thank you for your patience and for being here. Disclaimer: This is a work of fan fiction based on the Harry Potter universe. I do not own the world or characters created by J.K. Rowling.

He had found her in the worst possible place: right in the middle of a case. "By the way," his partner pulled him out of his thoughts. He surprised him by giving him a mischievous smirk. "That growl? 10/10 in my book. Very spooky. 9/10 on Rotten Tomatoes for Plot and Suspense. Of course, one point was taken away for doing it near humans, a woman, nonetheless. But, other than that, loved it." He had to take a deep breath for that. He stopped walking and glared at the man. "You know," he started. "One of these days you're going to wind up dead because of that mouth." "From you?" "Possibly." "Good," that smirk never left his face. "You have no idea how annoying it is being immortal." "Can't be worse than being friends with one," he rolled his eyes and continued his walk. As much as he was excited to find his love, he couldn't help but be concerned for the woman. She was a gypsy without a past or a family. And it seemed like there was more than just him looking for her. But who was it? And why? Why was she trapped in that glass?

It was a destiny trapped in glass. And now he had to figure out where it was leading him. * A mystery romance with a supernatural twist! Come and join this detective's ragtag group of friends and coworkers as he deciphers who is after the love of his life! Will he be able to win her over? Completed 07/31/23Complete
