Cloaked by the Island's violent magic, Rhiannon, once Queen of Aurelias, lives a humble life among the Island's fae.  She is the last of the Fae Dragon Bloodline, very powerful, and so she is hunted.  Her once betrothed, and attempted murderer, Prince Ryker, endlessly searches for her... for her blood.  Between the Island's magic, Rhiannon's powers and the help of her confidants, every single one of Prince Ryker's hunters that have come for her, have met a violent end.  Yet, something darker haunts her.
 
Just when she was beginning to think she could relax, a mysterious male arrives seeking the Island's refuge.  Despite all of her attempts to expose him as a Hunter, she finds herself unexplainably drawn to him.  Can she trust him?  What is the cost if she allows herself to actually live instead of exist? And what of her obligation to her people as her Kingdom suffers?

A Plaything for the Dragons by annablazer
16 parts Ongoing Mature
❝Two dragons and their dirty little plaything.❞ I didn't have much before the war. Just a name, a half-broken past, and kraken scars that burn every time I breathe. The war didn't break me-it just left marks that never healed. Now, I scrape by in the Banished Realm doing what I must to survive-petty crimes, quiet getaways, keeping my head low and my secrets buried. It's barely enough. Until desperation pushes me into a mission I can't afford to refuse. One risky job. One promised payout. One brutal trap I never saw coming. Framed for a crime I didn't commit, I'm dragged into the dungeons of the Banished Kings. A mated pair-ancient, ruthless, and sinfully beautiful. They claim they want answers. But the way they circle me, the way their eyes linger on my scars and the fire beneath my skin... it's not just the truth they crave. I have a secret they can never uncover. Because if they do, they won't destroy me. They'll devour me-mind, body, and soul. And I don't know if I'll beg them to stop... or to never stop at all.

And now, Zackai and Eilex need to figure out how to help each other, despite the growing love between them. They're falling for each other, and it seems that Victoria knew that. So, now she's hunting Eilex, too. But Zackai won't let anything happen to Eilex. Or will he?

25 parts Complete Mature
Aurelia was once a nameless maid-obedient, quiet, invisible. But years of servitude taught her one truth: power doesn't belong to those who inherit it. It belongs to those willing to bleed for it. One night, she seized it. She slaughtered the royal family, took the crown, and made herself Queen. The only one she spared? Seraphina-the former princess, now a prisoner in her own palace. Once her mistress, now her captive. Once her dream, now her regret. But history between them runs deeper than anyone suspects. Before rebellion, before betrayal... there were glances. Secrets. Longing. And something dangerous neither of them dared name. Now, with Seraphina under house arrest and Aurelia sitting on a throne drenched in blood, their story begins again-not as ruler and servant, but as two monsters shaped by love, obsession, and the cost of freedom. Maybe she wanted the crown. Maybe she just wanted her. Maybe... she wanted both. ⚠️ Content Warning: dark romance, manipulation, obsession, murder, power imbalance, confinement > More of this chaos? I write the unhinged versions on AO3: sLilith200 🖤

When the Veil between realms was torn apart, the world of Elyndor fell into ruin. The immortal Queen of Ashen Glass rules from her floating court above the clouds, feeding on the magic of lesser beings-humans, vampires, and half-Fae alike. Below, the world rots under her shadow. Rhiannon Vale, a healer hiding among the remnants of humankind, has spent her life concealing a secret that could damn her-the shimmer of Fae blood beneath her skin. But when the Queen's soldiers raze her village and the power she's buried all her life awakens in the flames, Rhiannon is forced to flee into a haunted wilderness where even the trees remember death. In the depths of that forest, she encounters something ancient-a voice that should not exist, bound to her by blood and ruin. Its name is whispered in legends: Aelric Thorne, the fallen vampire fae prince, cursed and forgotten beneath the earth. Though they have not yet met, the bond between them begins to stir, waking old magic that even the Queen once feared. As Rhiannon struggles to survive the wasteland and the hunters closing in, she discovers her power is not a curse but a key-one that could unmake the Queen's dominion or doom what's left of the world. And somewhere in the shadows, Aelric begins to remember the girl who burns like light in his darkness.
