Snowfall || Kimetsu no Yaiba Fanfic || [DISCONTINUED] by yourtypicalgirl_12

[DISCONTINUED] "Everything about her reminds you of winter." Her touch was light and gentle like falling snow with a touch of warmth that opened up his heart. Tomioka Giyuu didn't expect that his encounter with her will change his outlook in life and demons. "It is as if her presence resembles that of the gentle first snowfall of the season." This is the story of a young demon Slayer named Kuchino Fuyuka. Her journey of revenge, friendship, love, self-discovery and acceptance in the world plagued of demons that harm humans. This is a Tomioka x OC fanfic. Cover is created by me. Disclaimer: I do not own Kimetsu no Yaiba. Only my OC and some of the plot of this fanfic.

Princess Snow and the Empress by AllyCwrites

WATTY'S 2022 SHORTLIST🏅A Qing Dynasty Snow White fairytale retelling with a Princess Mononoke twist. Featured on @Wattpad's Fantasy Adventures reading list and @WattpadExplorer. ***** Snow is anything but the submissive princess the Jade Palace expects her to be. Her foster mothers find her impossible, her royal tutor labels her incorrigible, and she recently threatened to shave her head if she were forced to marry. When the Empress presents her with an opportunity to go on the imperial spring hunt with the princes and her not-so-secret crush, Prince Erden, Snow jumps at the chance. Who knew that that would lead to an assassination attempt, a harrowing escape, and her getting hopelessly lost in a dark forest during a thunderstorm--with no survival skills whatsoever. The only things she has to help her survive are lots of moxie and latent magical powers she inherited from her deceased mother. Oh, and an ethereally white fox that led seven old dwarves to her. With the Empress's malicious intent now revealed, Snow must discover her true strength, who her mother really is, and what magical powers she wields, in order to find her way back to Erden. If she fails, she might never see him again and die a lonely old crone in the mountains. . . or get murdered anyway when the bloodthirsty Empress--said to have fantastical powers of her own--comes for Snow.

Malice Hearts Yin Book 1 Part 1 by MetalaKahame

The darkness of the human heart survives death. Set in the 1700s, In an alternate history, fantasy version of Earth. The Ayakashi has run rampant across the Asian continent. The Onmyodo is an organization that has risen to great power by harnessing the supernatural abilities of these creatures, earning them great respect but also great fear and resentment. Yuki, a young Onmyoji, has great aspirations to ascend to the top of the Onmyodo and become a legendary hero. He also desires to find his younger sister Mei, who was kidnapped by the Ayakashi when they were children. Unfortunately, Yuki is a literal personification of the Dunning-Kruger effect. He has no talent for the leader role his doting Master put him in and his eccentric teammates can't stand to work with him. Of course, from Yuki's perspective he's a genius and their all just jealous. He is a very delusional protagonist. In Snow Souls, Part 1 Yuki and his team must travel to Shanghai in search of the rumored "Cold Child"; a strange creature that has been using the powers of ice and illusions to protect the women of the red-light district. While there, they learn of both the Zi family, a powerful gang rumored to use demons and of the Faceless Murders, where bodies have been turning up with their faces devoured. Why had Onmyodo sent them capture the harmless Cold Child rather than have them look into these more dire rumors? Or is something more sinister brewing behind the scenes? Could Cold Child actually be more than what they seem, and could they hold the secret to not only the dangerous Zi family but also the face devouring demon dog whom stalks Shanghai's streets at night? Perhaps... they could be the key to unlock a secret dark secret hidden within the Onmyodo it's self? More importantly, is this the mission where Yuki will finally gain the recognition of his team and prove that he's NOT the worst commander in the history of the Onmyodo!?

Desert Wings by spiteful_hope

In Kara's village at the age if fifteen your wings are freed from the chains that have bound them. Once you can fly you must cross the White Desert, a land covered almost entirely in ice and snow, and the inhabitants are not all friendly. Gods and goddesses of myth live with in the constraints if the dimension beside creatures of flight and fancy; beside them hide those of dreams, be they day dreams or the darkest nightmare. Kara and her freinds now must find out how to survive in a land where little is what it seems and a villain can be made of a hero or a hero made of a villian. Atop all this sits Fate, pulling strings to make her puppets jump and keep things intresting, because she has always loved a good show. Until the show started to change, when one little girl in particular wants things to change, because if leaving means Death, well Fate has another thing coming, a new Queen is coming. This story is going to be for the most part unedited. I'm going to try to start editing soon. Some violence.

Ten Years Apart by JelianBanggat2

Children Of Frost (Book 1: Spirit Tales) by BrittanyWilton

Not everything is what it seems, some things in life need to be looked at more then once. This is something that Winter has to learn. Not everything you know, is true, and at the same time things you don't believe in, they may not be a lie. Winter never believed in the Petunia's families story, she didn't believe the 'ice age' was coming to a close, or that the land had once been free of the snow that seemed to cover it's surface. She feels her life has became out of control when she has to start working with Spring Petunia, who won't leave her alone about an object. Will she join them? Or will her past be the reason she doesn't have a future?
