In the land of Loria, those that are born with both magical and human blood in their veins that do not have parents are required to work for the kingdom as slaves. Eighteen year old Zerena has worked ever since she was a child in the kitchens of the largest farm in the kingdom, but all the work in the world can't stop her from dreaming of a day where she'll finally be freed. That dream seems to come sooner, rather than later, as the Prince himself makes her an offer she doesn't dare to refuse.

Eighteen-year-old Jessica has always felt the pull of the forest. Living at the edge of the forest of the wild, she's heard the warnings her whole life: never cross into the monster's side. But when danger strikes and she's forced beyond the border, she discovers a world far stranger-and more beautiful-than she ever imagined. Wounded and alone, Jessica is saved by Zackariah, a mysterious guardian of the forest with eyes like a stormlight and a soul shaped by solitude. He is not entirely human... and not entirely monster. Bound to the Veilwood by ancient magic, Zackariah never expected to care for a human - let alone risk everything to save one. As Jessica heals in the hidden sanctuary of the wood elves, she and Zackariah find themselves drawn together by a bond neither can explain... and a love that defies the rules of both their worlds. But with danger closing in, and old powers stirring in the trees, their connection may not be enough. To stay together, they'll have to choose: the safety of what they've always known... or the wild, uncertain path of the heart. Some stories begin on the edge of the unknown. This one begins just beyond it. This work originally mine @copyright (this is my first story)Complete

Veins of Fire and Prophecy
Before the fire, there was a name. Before the name, there was a scream. The world remembers the war as myth. The gods remember it as treason. And one cursed king cannot forget it at all. Aelira dreams of mirrors and fire, of a stranger's grief and a voice that calls her through centuries. The stars have begun to move again. The old signs bleed through the seams of the present. Far away, a beast waits beside a broken throne and a blade he dares not unsheathe. The silence he carved with blood begins to stir, and the name he buried beneath ash begins to rise. Something is waking. Something that once burned the world to its bones. And it is not finished.
Testing My Luck in the New World
After his reincarnation into a world that blends reality with video game elements, Alex, a former recluse, uncovers a troubling aspect of his new world: slavery is permitted. Despite his ethical reservations, he is enthralled by the chance to finally end his years of quiet, lonely suffering when he meets the beautiful and powerful slave girl named Yua. And it just so happens that she's up for sale. Giving into temptation, Alex spends nearly all the gold he has to his name to acquire her, he realizes just how disastrous his hasty decision truly was, and not merely due to his own troubled conscience. Now, Alex is compelled to exhaust himself fighting in the dungeons beneath the Great City of Amoranth to earn more gold and to secure Yua's safety, as her former master has threatened her life (and Alex's) should he fail to repay the debt he incurred from her purchase. Trying to do right by her, even while dealing with her unending sass, he struggles to maintain what he now holds very dear. At the same time, Yua grapples with her perception of Alex, wondering if he embodies the same type of brutal and unforgiving master she always feared would one day claim her, even though deep down, she suspects she already knows the answer. https://twitter.com/LethalBacon115 patreon.com/LethalBacon

When a spring-born initiate dares to defy the sanctity of silence, she catches the attention of the one being no angel should ever cross: the god of death himself. He should have punished her. Instead... he watched. He intervened. He let her live. And in doing so, he may have doomed them both. Because the Ivory City is rotting from within. And she-bright, reckless, and unafraid-was never meant to survive it. Betrayal was always inevitable. But he never expected to want her enough to let it happen. ~She was forbidden to speak his name. He couldn't stop thinking hers.~
