ONC Shortlister 2023!

There are few rules in the Kingdom of Kadotaru, and punishment is not kind, even for the young prince who wishes he was anybody else. Tied to the crown, to his family, to his kingdom, there isn't much he can do. He isn't born to bear the crown, to rule over all the creatures of Kadotaru, but it still haunts him. He never thought to break a rule, there was too much fear deep in his heart. He never thought to break any rules, until she was able to see him.

Humans. Humans don't have true sight. They aren't seers, or creatures of Kadotaru. So why can she see him? Why does she reach out to help him? And why did he have to break Kadotaru's most sacred rule?

-------------------------------------------------------

This novella will include extreme violence. There will be warnings at the beginning of the chapters that include this show of brutality, but do not reach this novella if you do not wish to read horrific scenes.

A tale of "BLOOD, SACRIFICES, AND OATH" What will be the outcome when their worlds collide? Will they be each other's salvation or each other's demise? My works are the outcome of my wild and roller-coaster crazy imagination that I nurtured with dedication and great love.

Love is Blind- Fenrys Moonbeam (TOG) by x_lyndon_x

I lean close enough that our lips brush when I speak. "He isn't worth it." I say, but he doesn't look convinced. I smirk as an idea pops in my head. "If you behave...we can do whatever you want tonight." His eyes widen, and a wicked smile grows on his face. He pulls back slightly, looking me in the eye. "Whatever I want?" He asks, and I grin wider, nodding. "Whatever you want." **** Jax has never had what would be considered an "easy" life. She's been beaten, tortured, and hunted. Yet she's survived it all, and came out stronger because of it. Now, she's facing an entirely new challenge. A court of the strongest warriors known to man, and she's somehow made her way into the middle of them. And she's running blind. *** MAJOR TW: This story contains MANY mature themes, and there will not be warnings at the beginnings of chapters. These themes include but are not limited to: swearing, abuse, blood, gore, torture, mature scenes, and fighting.

Marked Claws (Mystic Bonds #2) | COMPLETED by SkylerChase29

❝ Let's rule a Kingdom, shall we? ❞ •○• When human slave turned Fae Handmaiden, Cara Arnel found herself in the Kingdom she had initially been fleeing to, alive, breathing and waking up with changes both physically prominent and mentally revealing, she could no longer ignore her ominous visions. •○• The guilt of Seraphima's last memory weighed heavily on Cara, devastating her just as much as Arion while Damien was itching to get a glimpse of his Soulbound and Lucien's walls of ice were chipping away. With her Alpha King pulling her in his orbit, came truths Cara finally uncovered. She soon realized that every person she'd met so far was crucial to the answers she'd sought. But the surprises in the power-play, the lies, the deceit, the politics, and various Royals soon failed to have their intended frazzling effect on enlightened Cara unlike those around her with each passing day. Unfortunately enough, the courtesy of the answer to who she was did not extend to the four alluringly dark pieces of her heart. It was four protective males that lusted for answers while their hearts tore apart in search of a feeling that was eating them alive. Meanwhile, threats of Killian kept rising as he steadily grew in his dormant powers and army. Cara could no longer stay still what with new alliances forming and old promises broken, both allies and foes warring. She knew there was no escaping the plans for the future laid out so brazenly. It was time to start preparing. But making choices is never easy. Thing was....this time around, Cara was much more prepared. Just not for the strikes her heart would have to take in the process. •○• BOOK 2 in the Mystic Bonds series. DO NOT READ before reading Book 1. Needs heavy editing. 1st draft. •○• #5 in planning on 13/12/21 #34 in Fae on 20/11/21 #31 in surprise on 13/12/21

Hidden Princess by Queeyana254

"Ah your majesty, I guess you might be wondering why I am here to torture the hell out of you right? It is all simple, I am here for nothing but to seek revenge. Do you remember that little girl from the neighboring kingdom? The one who you 'murdered'? Yeah her, guess what? She's not dead, neither is her mother, but her father on the other hand, wasn't spared from your sword. With it slicing through his intestines and I watching it on my mother's back. "Do you know how that affects a child? Seeing their precious father being murdered right in front of her eyes. You thought that you buried us six feet underground. Well jokes on you. Those were dummies that my mother created to fool you. We buried my father in a funeral only of us two," she said wiping away a stray tear, "You know, it is always said, an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth ... and a life for a life." She tightened her grip on the king's throat and he groaned out loud in pain. The bones on his backbone cracked slowly under the immense force. Daryl had seen the whole thing. From what she had said, she had every right to take his father's life away, but, he didn't want her to have any blood in her hands. "Tatyana! Please don't kill my father. I know you have every reason to, but please, don't kill him." He broke the silence that had surrounded the room with his plea. Tatyana threw a glance at him and her heart ached at the sight of him like that. She had come all this way, what was left was just to snap his neck, and all would be over. Will she do it? Find out by reading Hidden Princess! Never leave the journey they will go through and know how the story ends. Remember, its not the happy ending that matters, but the tribulations one may go through in order to obtain it. Cover credits go to @omnikinetic. If you want an awesome cover, go to her cover shop.😊

My Fucked Up Fairytale by pinenutters

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. WARNING: This story contains scenes involving sexual assault/harassment. The chapters containing these potentially triggering subjects all have warnings at the start of them! Please read at your own discretion!
