The key to being yourself is to embrace what you are. 

But how can you do that when the world hunts the very thing that you are, that you identify as?

In the land of kingdom Leith, there are a few in society who are different, who don't quite fit in. Citizens have been calling them The Gifted Ones, people blessed with magic, blessed with a special gift. Magicians who are a threat to the Crown, a threat to the citizens, or so the Queen says. 
So they get killed on the spot, driven into a corner and slaughtered like animals. 

But to the Gifted Ones themselves, their magic isn't a blessing. They are forced to live with constant anxiety,  with constant fear to be caught. They don't show themselves often in public, they don't make their voices be heard. Until one day. 

A girl who thieves for a living, gifted with ShapeShifting powers meets a cocky, optimistic Empath boy. 

They meet by faith, their future intertwined. Together they decide to fight for their freedom, to escape their miserable lives of uncertainty and fear. 

Will they succeed in escaping? Will they finally get the freedom they both dreamed of?

••• Oh yeah, I think I forgot to mention, some of us humans are "gifted" as we like to say, in short, we have powers, well most of us do, anyway, powers that only show themselves when we turn 18. That's why an eighteenth birthday is such a big deal. Please note, that our powers come in all shapes and sizes. From elemental magic, to mind control, mind reading, time traveling, and even shapeshifting, and many, many, more. Even though some humans don't get powers, it's still better than getting what is known as The Soulmate Gift. What is it? You may be asking yourself. Well... It's when you can see what your soulmate sees and when you can talk to them mind to mind. Why is this such a bad thing? It only appears when one of the pair is in danger or is about to marry or spend their lives with someone other than their soulmate. So yeah, heartbreak is definitely present in the equation. And yes, you've guessed it, I, Amelie Diamandis, have the Soulmate Gift. And the fire gift. Which should be impossible. Isn't that just great? Oh, and my soulmate wants nothing to do with me....I think? ••• For as long as humans could remember you either got one gift or nothing, it's impossible to have two or more. A human with more than one power has been unheard of. Until today. When two people, destined since birth, break history with powers destined for destruction and a destiny that none can fathom. ____ THIS IS A FIRST DRAFT #167 in magic out of 270K 2021-12-05 #6 in high fantasy 2021-12-06 #21 in meant to be 2020-07-10 #43 in epic fantasy 2020-07-10 #31 in gift 2020-07-10 #31 in mate bond 2020-05-06 #58 in loneliness out of 12K 2021-12-02 ____ This story contains mature subject matter such as violence, reader's discretion is advised. ___ I couldn't find the artist that made the girl on the cover, if you know who it is please send me a message so I can credit them :)

33 parts Ongoing

In a world where love twists into obsession and loyalty battles betrayal, four lives collide in a haunting dance of secrets, power, and desire. When hearts are bound by shadows and every promise is laced with deceit, the line between passion and possession blurs. In this tale of dark romance, one woman's sacrifice and another's broken heart spark a descent into a love that knows no mercy-and revenge that knows no end. He is the untouchable, the heir, the one who holds every heart in his cold, unyielding grip. She is the quiet observer, the girl who hides her feelings in the shadows-until he makes her sister his pawn in a cruel game of deceit. When love becomes a weapon and trust a distant memory, the lives of three young souls spiral into a web of seduction, obsession, and vengeance. A forbidden marriage binds two enemies in a twisted embrace, but hatred is only a spark waiting to ignite. He wants control; she wants freedom. Yet, as their lives intertwine in a dangerous dance, desire takes root in places neither of them expect. But shadows lurk in every corner, and buried truths threaten to shatter even the strongest heart. Can anyone survive a love that devours, a betrayal that cuts deeper than any wound, and a revenge that knows no bounds? How far would you go to keep what you can't bear to lose?
