Heartless by Layanabella

My body trembled, but not from the cold. "You frighten me." His brow twitched, eyes darting around the features of my face. "Frighten, or excite?" His gaze dropped to my mouth. "Which is it, Miss Young?" ❆ Once upon a time in a dying village, there lived a girl who dreamed of a life free of fear and death. She yearned for a world not ruled by the darkness and the demons awaiting her inside it... For nearly eighteen years, Adaira Young has been able to hide from the monsters that plague her small village. Every year in Kinnot, a name must be drawn to be offered to the beasts from the mountains. Once they are sacrificed and disappear through the gates, they are never seen again. When Adaira's world comes crashing down around her and she finds herself on the outside of those very walls, Adaira comes face to face with the monster she's been cowering from all her life: A terrifying man named Beast. Whisked away to his palace in the icy mountains, Adaira struggles to adjust to her new life and fight the dangerous feelings of attraction growing inside her.

The Manifestation Witch by Rossy1eliz

Would you confess the lowest moment in your life and give up your best memory to gain abundance? In a city where humans are blind to the magic surrounding them, Ghanima is part of a group of millionaire sorcerers with exquisite tastes and exceptional gifts; one of them is granting abundance. While their power is formidable, it demands a steep price - those seeking its favor must confess their darkest sins and surrender their happiest memories, their judgment clouded by desperation. Extreme wealth and unimaginable opportunities are only for the daring individuals. Everything has a price, and with such high-end work, someone will oppose creatures interfering in human lives, giving sinners an advantage. Here comes the Cosima group, which, under the motto of order, decency, and balance, will attempt to stop them at all costs. However, she desires fairness in the world, so she uses magic and rebels against her superiors, the elevated wills who feed on dark human confessions and grant riches through them. In her self-discovery, while trying to level the scales, Ghanima investigates her magical origin and longs for a life purpose less dark than the one written for her. When she needs to calm the chaos of her days and find solace, she visits the owner of a diner. Attractive and unaware of her situation, but he knows how to listen to her. Amid the chaos that is her reality, will she have time for romance?

Viciously in Love by i_am_michaela

Check out my Instagram page: gold_n_dark for aesthetics and songs for the chapters. One in a million. The chances of them meeting were one in a million. And yet... They met. And more came. Neither of them met love until now. Each one had different reasons. One was too stubborn, arrogant, heartless and careless to want love; the other one was too kind, happy, hopefull, optimist and dreamy to see the love around her. Maybe that's why they attracted each other. Because they completed each other. The good - her - and the bad - him. But not quite... She could also be strubborn, grumpy, proud, impulsive; and he... he would be wearing a mask. A mask which made him seem harsh and impassive. But once he would take the mask off, it would relieve the wounds, the pain, the worries, the hope and above all, the love. They have many things in common and at the same time they are completely different. They could've not met, and yet they did. They could've not fallen in love, and yet they did. They could've forget and move on, and yet, they couldn't. In Nicole and Jake's story, at the beginning everything is about hate and how they can't stand each other, about how they would give anything to not be near each other. But everything ends with love and about love. Their love. And how it consumes them and it drives them insane. But they love that. This is their story. Nicole and Jake's story. It's about love: being in love and loving someone; about being broken and hurt and hurting the people around you; about growing up and becoming an adult. It's about being human.

Born with purple eyes, 18-year-old Mageia Unknown knows one thing, if she's ever caught, she could be executed because of it. Being the leader of a group of Strange youths living on the outskirts of the Kingdom of Ardania, she makes it her duty to take care of her family, no matter the cost. But when an act of heroism goes wrong, she discovers her fate is entwined with a prophecy that may force her to sacrifice everything she loves and believes in. 18-year-old Grisonce Arlon is not the most respected prince in the kingdom. Despite his defect that taints the royal bloodline, he is urged to find a wife to be accepted by other Fairs. But his interests lie in something far greater. When his obsession with the Fairest Prophecy intervenes with the case of the one called the Purple Thief, it reveals a possible dark threat lurking within the palace involving a most hated rival.

A Touch of Magic by Sarel303

"Usually innocents like you have time to grow into their magic before they have to break the rules. You don't have that time, Minta. Please believe me, you need to be ready. I'm risking everything to make you ready." I stopped and searched his eyes for further explanation, and there was a near moment of clarity before Edgar looked away, releasing me gently. "Risk what, Edgar?" A Touch of Magic... Minta has a choice; she can turn away from magic or embrace it. Desperate for a destiny, it's a no brainer. Guided by the cat who's been following her around, and her dead aunt's sidekick Gladys Jones, Minta begins by fixing problems with bullies, and finding Prince Charming for her b.f.f. Who'd of thought there were so many Cinderella's in need of makeovers? It's not long before Minta wants change her own romantic fortunes too (it's worked for everyone else). But life is never that simple and as Minta grapples with her future, there are others trying to stop her from having one. But who and why? Minta hasn't a clue. Though she does have her suspicions about the cat... Eventually, sacrificing her own (and very human) desires to follow her path, Minta's destiny becomes clear; this is a story of self-belief and resolution, first crushes & love (and the journey towards grasping the difference). Mostly though, this is a book about magic. Cover kindly made by @alessandra
