I fled the night they killed my parents. They tried to kill me too, but I got away.

I buried the past and made a new life for myself, hidden in a world without magic. The human world, where fae are little more than stories.

But one night, in the fighting ring where I use the only skills I have to earn a living, my masked opponent pins me down and rips my mask off.

"I thought you were dead," he whispers.

And I know without tearing his own mask off that it's HIM.

He's found me.

With magic, action, and angsty slow-burn tension, you won't be able to stop turning the pages!

NOTE: While this story is set in the same fictional world as Rachel Morgan's bestselling Creepy Hollow Series (which you can start reading here on Wattpad with The Faerie Guardian and The Faerie Prince), you do not have to read that series before reading this one.

Mercy & Fire by daughteroftMH

Adrenaline pumped in my veins as I pressed myself against the large tree trunk, hoping the darkness would conceal me from my impending doom. My heart hammered against my ribs and cold sweat gathered at my palms and chest. His armor clanked and clinked, scraping against itself as he grew closer and closer... Then silence. "Come out little rabbit." The voice was deep and menacing, and I would've soiled myself right there if I were any younger. I couldn't see very well, but I could see what little moonlight that filtered through the trees reflected off a pale face. His gaze was like a hungry, crazed wolf hunting its prey. "Found you." *** Roselena is satisfied with helping her father run his printing business in her childhood village, but in the face of kingdom rising against kingdom, she finds herself thrown into a world of political tensions, magical beings, and the plot of a God.

Death Is My BFFLAD (Book Two Original Series) by katrocks247
24 parts Complete
(Bfflad- Best friends for life and death) Dear Reader, Let's start at the beginning shall we? I died. Oh no, not one of these stories again where someone angelic and heroic saves the damsel in distress. If only I was that lucky. My heart stopped beating. My lungs stopped working, my soul began to lift away... And then I was saved by a beautiful man with a kind heart and sparkles sprinkled around his head in a golden halo. A cunning, dazzling smile etched his angled features and his hair lay perfectly on his head like...black, sinful layers of pure cynical distrusting evil. Evil that was just waiting to onset a innocent girl as myself and allow her a short amount of time of happiness, and then finish her off when she became older. I'll give you a hint. The beginning of that description was slightly exaggerated. The Angel of Death. One of the only creatures known that was capable of settling the boundaries of heaven on earth. The only creature capable of making one of the Devil's darkest deals to my loving mother; a second chance for her daughter. This comes with consequences of course. Everything you know about Death is wrong. Death is not natural, Death is not normal, Death is not doleful, and Death is far from mercenary. Death blends into the shadows like coal against the most atramentous sky. Death walks the earth with his cursed, monstrous and exotic features, his enticing voice and betraying alluring eyes. Death deceives, scratches, and plays with your mind, until you slowly and painfully loose your grip on reality. He'll make you believe he's a different person, that there's a sliver hope for him. Hope for you. Death is close. Forever and always, Faith Williams ************ DIMBFF FAN CLUB ON FACEBOOK: http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.1605057011183.80718.1378871754&type=1#!/groups/308207282529485/ **** MY WRITING PAGE!

Time seemed to slow as his gaze traveled from mine to my lips, his expression softening with unspoken words. It was a fleeting moment of connection amidst the laughter and playfulness, a silent acknowledgment of something unspoken between us. "Can I?" he whispered, his voice barely audible but filled with longing. Instead of answering verbally, I leaned in ever so slightly, a silent invitation reflected in my eyes. The air between us crackled with anticipation as our lips hovered just inches apart, poised to bridge the gap between desire and reality. ♡ ₊ ˚ •¤ ‧ ₊ ✧ ‧₊ ༉ As I stand poised with the knife at their throat, the air crackles with tension, thick and suffocating. It's a battle of wills, a silent struggle between predator and prey, each locked in a precarious dance of defiance and determination. But the figure remains silent, an impenetrable wall of stoicism in the face of my interrogation. Frustration boils within me, driving me to press the blade deeper against their throat in a desperate bid for answers. ♡ ₊ ˚ •¤ ‧ ₊ ✧ ‧₊ ༉ They say "Even devil sits back and take notes when a woman takes revenge." A story of a woman who has turned the whole city upside down and who's name is like a prohibited act because if you speak ill of her she'll make sure to grab your throat and who knows what deadly wrath they will face.

TEASER: "No fiancée of mine needs to learn how to fight." His breath flows upon the prickling skin of my neck. I close my eyes, involuntarily shuddering in response. "All you need to know how to do is satisfy me." "How exactly am I supposed to satisfy you?" The answer to such a question is obvious, yet, like the idiot I am, I still asked him. "Blood...and of course, other means." BLURB: Cyra is pulled into a foreign world where humans are rarities while vampires, elves, werewolves, witches, and more strange creatures are the norm. That's the least of her worries though. Now the bride of one of the most powerful vampires in all of the kingdom, she is faced with two choices. One: give in and accept her doomed future with a husband who detests humans, or two: successfully kill him before he is crowned King of Bestias.
