After many years of war, two realms are finally in an era of peace. Only there is one absolute rule set upon the fairies: no human shall see a fairy's true form, or else their eyes would be granted the ability to seek the entrance to Theolia. But as the forest fairy Melusine sets out to explore a small human town in the dead of night, she witnesses a crime at play, and her faith and love for humans lead her to break the One Great Rule.
Cast out by the fairy council, Melusine is cursed to roam Cassen until she finds the man she has saved and erases his memory of their encounter. The problem? She has no other lead but a pair of wings tattooed on his right chest. Not until a certain prince from Cassen offers his help in exchange of pretending as his bride-to-be until he finds one to secure his throne.
Thrown into courtly life, Mel is stuck in a dizzying game of power, revenge, treachery, and a blossoming attraction to the crown prince that puts them both in danger than they know. In the end, she must choose: her duty... or her heart.

-"She'll ruin you! She'll bring you to your knees." His answer was a prayer, murmured above me. "Even better."- ~A tale of oaths, and the people who break them~ Cassia Aurelius is a thief, an orphan, and a girl who made a terrible mistake... she ate Fae food. Now she's trapped in a realm of beautiful half-truths disguised as mercy, where the price of survival is combat. Forced into deadly trials before a crowd of merciless Fae, Cassia fights to keep her life, unaware that the game was never meant for her to win. When a dashing Fae Lord steps in to save the hapless human girl, she sees no way to live long enough to find her way home, except his unwanted offer of marriage. This Lord had his own reasons for this chivalry, however. She was not to be a bride, but a key. Hunted, terrified, and betrayed, Cassia finds an unlikely ally in the court of her betrothed. One with secrets that echo her own... one who leads her to a reclusive and broken Fae Lord who sees the darkness she hides. As war brews and ancient magic stirs, love becomes a weapon. Cassia must decide who to trust before she loses more than her home and freedom. In the Fae realm, looks can be deceiving. And after a life of hot and cold, Cassia isn't certain she can trust a "just right".

This is the story of a fairy who lived his life brightly, only for it to be veiled by betrayal. So let us tell an old story anew, and we will see how well you know it.

The Girl Who Saw Tomorrow » Harry Potter
✨ FEATURED on WattpadPotterverse 🪄 This story now has assistive text-to-speech 🗣️ so you can listen to each chapter ✨ ❝I solemnly swear that I am up to no good...❞ Margaret Adelaide Xenakis had a pretty normal life until the age of 14. And then she got struck by lightning. As if nature's unnecessary assault was not enough, it leaves her with 'voodoo stuff' instead - powers of telekinesis, telepathy, teleportation, and whatnot. Now at 16, trying to deal with the loss of her twin brother while suppressing her destructive powers, the struggling teen has much on her platter already. When she gets struck by lightning once again and wakes up in an unfamiliar place surrounded by way too many redheads, a bushy-haired girl and a bespectacled boy with a lightning-shaped scar on his forehead... Let's just say Margaret's life might've gotten weirder than she could have ever imagined. Reading the Harry Potter books had been just a hobby. But suddenly, Margaret is burdened with the weight of knowing the future. She has to not only weave her way through the Wizarding World and fight in a war she had believed was fictional, but also save everyone who did not deserve to die in the crossfire. Talk about tough luck. ~ Warning: probably contains plot boo-boos like the inclusion of the movie storyline :) This is NOT an OC X Harry Potter story.

The Fae Ambassador
Deep in the Bavarian woods, where the faerie realm touches on the human world lies Schloss Mondschein. Owned by a corrupted human family, the castle is the playground of the Fae. The human staff are their toys. Servant's daughter Andromeda Arendt has watched their cruel antics her entire life. From the shadows, she witnessed the humiliation and abuse of her parents, leading to her mother's death and her father's insanity. At twenty-one, she's ready for revenge. In support of the human rebellion, she takes on the task of shooting the Fae Ambassador in the back, but North Winterborn has been warned. He glamours her, tosses her into a flying shifter dogsled and whisks her away to Faerie Hawthrone, the epicenter of Fae power, where she quickly learns that there are worse places for humans to end up in than Mondschein castle, that her parents are not who they said they were, and that perhaps she has a shot at getting them back. Surprisingly, North Winterborn appears not to be the worst guy to have around while navigating this new reality, but can a Fae ever truly be trusted?
