Alruna's life has never been her own. Born a fae princess but forced to flee her kingdom, she's spent every moment running-from her past, from the people who destroyed everything she loved, and from the power she never asked for. In a world teeming with monstrous creatures and ancient evils, nothing is ever what it seems. Alruna's astonishing abilities tether her to a realm far beyond her understanding, where her destiny lies entwined with the fate of a shadowed warrior cursed by darkness.

Rafmer, a Raddari berserker desperate for freedom, has spent his life fighting the curse that binds him. But his path collides with Alruna's when a forced arrangement ties him to the girl shrouded in mystery. Her fire awakens something in him-passion he's desperate to ignore and a truth he can't deny.

As Alruna's search for justice pulls her deeper into a dangerous web of power, she must confront not only her enemies but the chaos within herself. To break Gaia's Barron Curse, she must face a truth that could either destroy her or change the fate of their world forever.

But can Rafmer protect the woman who speaks in his dreams, or will the demons lurking in his shadows consume them both?

Perfect for fans of dark fantasy, star-crossed lovers, and worlds where danger and desire collide, this tale weaves mystery, betrayal, and passion into an unforgettable journey.

Chronicles of Alora: Stargazer by ElysiaNoir123

Beneath a sky stitched with constellations and secrets, three girls were born on the same winter night-a princess cloaked in shadow, a conqueror wrapped in flame, and a light-bearer destined to scatter the darkness. Each carries a thread of an ancient prophecy, their fates bound to the future of the kingdom and the balance of a world teetering on the edge of ruin. Eve knows nothing of this prophecy. Growing up in the quiet mountain village of Starling Hollow, her life has been shaped by whispered tales of the Fae, restless dreams, and a gnawing sense of not quite belonging. But when glowing lights begin to call her into the ancient Aurorian Forest, Eve discovers the truth: she is not who she thinks she is. Stolen as a child and stripped of her memories, Eve is Alora-the light-bearer of prophecy. And the Fae, long thought to be extinct, are waiting for her return. Guided by visions and whispers of the past, Eve must navigate a fractured kingdom, unravel the mystery of her stolen identity, and reclaim the power hidden within. But not all lights shine for good, and not all who seek her mean her well. The path to the Vale of the Fairies is treacherous, and the choices she makes will determine not only her fate, but the fate of the entire kingdom. In a world where stars hold secrets, forests whisper names, and magic is both a gift and a curse, Eve must decide: will she follow the light, or be consumed by the shadows?

✧The Earthe of the Elves✧ by StoriesbyAvery

"Upstairs!" I hear a yell and pounding footsteps. I crawl out of the window until I'm hanging from my hands. I take a breath. I let go. ~ Living in a small town with a single mother, Mia Glenn never expected anything special to come of her life. She never thought she would go on an adventure as harrowing as the stories she read. Until one day she narrowly avoids being kidnapped, discovering in the same day a whole new universe that she is supposedly a part of. As she navigates the elven world of Earthe with the help of a particularly attractive elf boy, she learns secrets about her identity and her father's, of whom she believed had ditched her and her mom at an early age. Soon Mia discovers that peace isn't as easy as it seems, and while Earthe may be beautiful, there are dark parts that are creeping back to the light. Even in a world of perfect beings such as elves, lies can be spun as precisely as an arrow can pierce a target, and evil can sneak up on you when you least expect it. Mia is used to reading about this kind of stuff, not living it. Safe to say she finds herself in one hell of an adventure. - - TW: if you need a tw for fighting, violence, weapons, blood, death, etc. I would read with caution (I don't get into any gory details, but there are scenes w/ this) I will put tw's for the more violent scenes.

"As I laid on the filthy mat, my white hair fanning out like a halo around my head, I felt that ice inside of me fester. It grew and spread until it spanned across my entire body. It engulfed every thought inside my head, every feeling that was bubbling up inside of me. Like a virus. The cold quieted it all, until everything was still and silent... Until I felt nothing at all." Eira Gellert's world comes crumbling down as her sister is forced to leave for the army. Now alone and desperate, Eira looks for a job in a society where if you don't have a job by nineteen you either go into the army or starve.

Now equipped with uncommon powers and other fae abilities, Eira is thrust into a world she's only ever heard fairy tales about. One's with evil kings and dark crowns and warriors made of wings and fire. There, she meets Sable Deidre, the king's killer. He is made of darkness and known for his brutality. Can she overcome her fear of this new life and the killer before her, or will his shadows swallow her whole?

But when fate binds her to King Ace, a ruthless ruler feared by all, she finds herself trapped in a marriage forged from vengeance and deception. Ace is cold, calculating, and dangerously unreadable.

But as whispers of rebellion stir and ancient prophecies resurface, she realizes that her hatred might not be enough to survive what's coming. Because the truth is more horrifying than the lies. Every queen before her has vanished. Every heir born has shaped the kingdom's fate-for better or worse. And now, with war looming and a prophecy hanging over her unborn child, Lureila must uncover the secret that has doomed generations of queens before her. The key to breaking the curse isn't their child. It's her. But Ace has spent his life guarding that truth. And if Lureila dares to defy history, she might not only destroy the kingdom-she might destroy the man who was never supposed to love her. Perfect for fans of slow-burn enemies-to-lovers, morally gray rulers, and dark fantasy intrigue, Crown me, Curse me is a tale of power, fate, and a love that could either shatter the world or save it
