Red's Wolves by druidrose

Alera lost her mother early in life and was raised by a strict king for a father and the many nursemaids who crossed themselves before touching her. It wasn't until she was of marrying age that she learned why the people feared her. She was canny... like her forest mother. Canny and feared to be fae. The only person besides her father who didn't seem to fear her was the handsome stable boy. He knew what she was and didn't cross himself before letting his hands touch hers longer than needed for helping her to her mount. And on her 18th birthday, neither could deny the bond that dragged them together. But her father had her sold off to make an advantageous match with the neighboring king's sullen and cruel son. Even a kingdom over, the whispers of the canny princess the people feared as fae reached royal ears. But they thought to use her to their advantage...to put fear in their own people's hearts and make them bend the knee. Now with the kingdom at war with the prince she would have married, Alera must save the people who feared her from an unspeakable fate brought to their door by the sullen prince wielding a dark unknown power. -------------------- Cover by Tina Glasneck ©2022 M.Dalto Published to Wattpad 06.01.2022 Completed 03/30/2023

Death's Rebirth by raeofsun_

A forgotten beauty lies hidden between the pillars of an ancient mountain, awakening without memories and only with a sense of melancholy about her uncertain past. To her dismay, every living thing she touched was cursed to wither away and perish in mere seconds-aligning perfectly with the ancient prophecy, which drew more contempt and hatred from those around her who fear the future that is predicted. Plagued with feelings of loss, she finds herself facing the wrath of her greatest foe-Duke Azrael de Triskellion, who sees her as a catalyst and perhaps something more. What is her past, what is her future, and what mysterious secrets does she hold that even she cannot remember? ⸻ *[WARNING: Please be advised that this story contains dark material and explicit scenes that could be upsetting to some readers.]

The Tenabrist Chronicles by neonclaire97

"No one could know about my birthright. No one could know about the magic pulsing beneath my skin. That secret held enough power to be the death of me, my father's reputation, and my family's reign. So, I clenched my fists tight and slept until Quarter One, as any dutiful daughter would. For princesses must be, in all circumstances, dutiful." Ainslie lives her life among the servant class, the lowest caste in the kingdom of Aer, serving a sweet but spoiled princess. Alva prepares to rule as Queen when she comes of age in a few years' time, trapped in a gilded cage only made cozy by her beloved lady-in-waiting. Both girls have secrets which will soon shake their kingdom and the entire alliance of Tenabrist to the core. With the help of a handsome knight, a wise librarian, and other allies made along the way, Ainslie and Alva must uncover secrets about their magic, the universe, and their kingdom before it's too late. Updates Sundays at 3pm.

BLOODLINE by TheNarratorOfDreams

In the kingdom of Nye, Prince Byron Albright-Beresford's life was forever altered when assassins struck, killing his family and leaving him to ascend the throne. The weight of the crown once meant for his elder brother, now rested on his shoulders. Haunted by loss and unprepared for the responsibilities of kingship, Byron's only solace was found in Princess Ratih Brownrigg, the woman once promised to his brother. Ratih, a mysterious and alluring princess from the dark kingdom of De Vrajitor, had come to Nye with her family to finalize her marriage, only to be caught in the same bloodshed that claimed Byron's kin. Her parents were abducted in the chaos, leaving her bound to a new fate-marrying Byron instead of his slain brother. Rumors swirled around Ratih, whispers of forbidden sorcery and dark powers coursing through her veins, casting a shadow over their union. Despite the kingdom's suspicions, Byron's love for her grew, though her secrets remained locked behind her enigmatic eyes. The discovery of her sorcery, however, would be only the beginning of their doom. As Byron uncovered the truth about Ratih's lineage as a sorceress, a darker force moved behind the scenes. As Byron's reign was tested by war, deceit, and magic, his marriage to Ratih became both his greatest strength and deepest curse. The growing tension between humanity and ancient powers all began to fall on Nye, with Byron and Ratih standing at the center of a prophecy long forgotten. The revelation would mark the beginning of a new era-one drenched in blood, shattered by betrayal, and driven by a love that could either save the kingdom or lead it to ruin.

All I Need ✔️ by Chronically-Chaotic

"You're playing with fire Safania." "Good thing I don't burn." The last words he spoke before throwing me onto my bed sounded like a threat, but felt more like a promise. "You will." *** Don't get caught. Those are the three words Safania has lived by for the past five years. As a marked woman - easily identified by intricate bronze marks on her back and unpredictable special abilities - she has spent the past five years running from anyone who might exploit those abilities...especially the royal families who tortured marked women to build their empires. Starving, exhausted, and frozen, she collapses by the bank of a river just to wake up in her worst nightmare: the chambers of a prince. Prince Cassius is his father's first choice of his three brothers to ascend to the throne. He's smart, strategic, and stoic, unlike his corrupt and depraved brothers. There's just one problem: he has no interest in any of his proposed marital matches, and the King will only pick someone as his successor who he knows will carry on the family line. But once he meets Safania, he finds himself unable to imagine ruling the kingdom without her by his side. Can he convince her to trust him? *** Warning: this story contains mature and potentially triggering themes including domestic violence and sexual assault. Reader discretion is advised.

The ant's song by NickVoice9

Arriving in a new world, humans found themselves to be the only ones unable to use magic. After a few peaceful years, a bloody war broke out between mankind and the nymphs, creatures most skilled in magic. Several centuries passed. Hiding behind the walls, humans in all eight kingdoms were trying to squeeze every last bit of technology to fight against the constant threat from the nymphs. But if the end justifies the means, the risk of losing humaneness is no less than losing a war. The storylines take place simultaneously. Cornelia, the young princess of the Castro kingdom, seeks a way to help people survive in the harshest territory and to oppose her father. Meanwhile, in the Vardana Kingdom, Ashwin, a young son of a vizier who was accused of treason, is captured and sentenced to a brutal execution. The hunchback girl, Bug, finds a strange magic artifact that forever changes her life as an outcast. Their different approaches may lead to a disastrous end, or open different paths for humanity's future. P.S. The cover is created by Sae Vain https://www.artstation.com/saevain P.P.S. That's the end of the first volume. Will come back with the second one after a short break.
