Ellie Harris (they/he) has hit a patch of bad luck. Their dad died, they lost their job, their boyfriend cheated on them, and, to top things off, they literally trip over a black cat.
What else could go wrong?
Then Ellie learns their dad was a witch, the cat is not a cat, they're the heir to the 'Ivy Throne' (whatever the f -k that is), and certain people want to kill them for it.
'What else could go wrong?' is soon a question Ellie learns not to ask.

King Make Believe
" One advanced, then two. Soon I was running from five of them. My legs ached as branches lashed and scratched my cheeks. They were gaining as the sting in my tendons worsened. I would be caught, they would kill me. I wouldn't even make it to fifteen. I sobbed as I continued to run. I wouldn't give up until my final breath. I would keep running and running and running until no more was required of me. " This futuristic novel is about a world where a vicious mist roams, tainting human beings and often killing them or making them unnaturally weak. All tainted by the Mist are subjects to an evil god whom many believe in. In this world, a young boy is born tainted, a rare occasion. He is a prince and born into a life of scorn and overprotection. But there are some people in this world who do not wish him dead, and need his power for their personal desires.Concluida
Witch Story Book 1: Cats and Curses
Rory Toothaker leads a very dull life. She lives in a boring house in the city, she gets bullied at school, and her father isn't around to read her fairtales anymore. Until, on a seemingly random afternoon, she accidentally discovers that she's a witch. Now thrust headfirst into an unfamiliar and exciting world of magic at her new boarding school (which just so happens to cater specifically to witches), Rory must learn to not only control her power but also figure out who she really is. But, the longer she spends in the haunted corridors of Olivine Isle Academy, the more she learns about the new world she's inadvertently found herself in... and the more she learns about its dark underbelly. When a student suddenly goes missing, Rory and her new friends quickly find themselves intwined in a mystery only they can solve. A mystery involving cats, curses and a love-addled Russian boy.

Flickering Creatures | ONC 2024 Longlist | ✔︎
When Bryony -- herbalist extraordinaire -- goes missing, Bella knows one suspect stands above the rest. The village's aspiring second witch, Daphne, comes from a family that's tried to take Bryony down before, and Daphne seems determined to carry on that legacy. For someone who's always been terrified of Bryony, she's a little too keen on looking into the disappearance. There's just one problem. Bella's insufferable fellow familiar thinks the kid is innocent... and he's been right about worse things before. If Daphne herself is to be believed, clues on the disappearance lead a whole lot closer to home than Bella would like. As the evidence mounts, Bella must choose to either stand by her values and the woman who raised her, or seek what might be a truth she would rather not uncover. Prompt #81: The town's witch has gone missing and no one is looking for her but her two familiars - a crow and a black cat, plus the teen who has always been scared of her. ❖❖❖ Written for Wattpad's 2024 Open Novella Contest.
