Ever since Shadow killed her father, Sherry has been biding her time preparing her revenge. Now armed with an arsenal of artifacts, including one that can disguise her appearance, she's ready to exact her revenge on Shadow and the mysterious Shadow Garden. Sherry plays a dangerous game of deception, always a step away from being discovered. But as she delves deeper into the world of shadows, she uncovers truths that challenge her beliefs and force her to question everything she thought she knew.
But will Cid even remember Sherry?

This is a speculative fanfic of The Eminence in Shadow exploring what could happen with Sherry's character. It aims to be canon-accurate (until the author finally reveals her arc). I found the idea of Sherry infiltrating Shadow Garden too fascinating to pass up and I hope to show you why. 😊

(Kind of on hiatus.... Updates will be random) This story is pure chaos. You gave been warned. I had always thought the world was too dull. I dreamed of a fantasy world filled with magic. I was an orphan and had no attachments to the real world. I should have specified my wishes more. Being the next target of truck-sama wasn't exactly on my bingo card. When I opened my eyes I was in a new body in a new world. And there was magic. It was a dream come true despite my painful arrival. But there was something suspicious about the all too bright world. And what was with the ridiculously good looking people? I was inside a novel I knew that much. But what novel I didn't know. --------- There might be a lot of typos. It's a reincarnation story inspired by the many reincarnation manhwas I've read so far but with my own twist. English is not my first language. I might not be the best at wording things.
A Grace of Crowns | ☑ Queenkiller, Kingmaker #1
❖ QUEENKILLER, KINGMAKER Book 1 ❖ Feudal Southeast-Asia filled with magic, daemons, and a royal conspiracy. This is Isla's quest for the truth, and her slow spiral into becoming her very own worst nightmare. When the gods ascended thousands of years ago, they left behind the divine gift of theurgy. Its powers still echo amongst men, but run fiercer yet in the blood of kings and queens. And one of them will stop at nothing before Isla is dead. A betrayal lures her out of refuge and into her journey home, where she must unmask her enemies before they unmask her. The theurgy that she has had to keep hidden for many years can be her greatest ally or her most lethal foil. Only her wits can guide her through the dangerous politics of the Surikh court. But amidst the plots and schemes bubbling around her, she uncovers something far more sinister than the identity of her enemies. Something that can change her entire life; indeed, entire kingdoms. ↝ this work contains violence, profanity, and sexual references ↜ ↝ Winner of Wattys 2016 HQ Love Award ↝ Winner of FANTASCI's first season Chosen One awards ↝ Winner of The Cryptic Awards 2018 ↝ Featured in Fantasy as of 18-01-2017 ↝ Wattpad Editor's Pick January 2021Complete

Irresistible Deception
Deception is an irresistible thing. It shows you how far you're willing to go to get what you want. It shows you what you want to see, but in the end; it leaves you with nothing to hold. An illusion to take pleasure in but make you question reality itself. BLAIR ANDERSON is quite a...strange girl. Despite the mistreatment and emotional neglect from her parents, she believes that deep inside everyone, there's always good. Because of her too trusting nature and her desire for love and affection she never received, it may lead to her ruination when she meets AMEO ADLER, who can be too...calm in frightening situations, for a lack of a better word. He's someone with an insatiable, dangerous appetite that he tries to hide from her. He would go lengths to prove to her how much she means to him, but to what extreme will he do that? Should there be a limit until it's becomes destructive? She will quickly realise that Ameo isn't what he deems himself to be; whether it's a good or a bad thing. She will soon learn that there's a frail, delicate line between protective and possessive; attraction and obsession; the admiration for someone and the desire to own one's being. She will later understand that not everyone who saves you is your guardian angel; and that sometimes, the devil does the saving instead. What happens when he enters her heart bit by bit? And after she falls into his love trap, perfectly made for her, will everything change? Just what could ever go wrong when a fiery rendezvous ignites between a gullible woman and an artful man? Nothing. Right? *Disclaimer! MATURE Content* Read this with caution, as it might be too much for some readers. If you can't handle it, it's best to stop for your sake because a lot of...things are going to happen in this story. <In Wattpad> Published: 12.02.2022 Finished: 12.05.2023 Ranks: #1 gaslighting #1 twisted #2 dark love #2 suspicion #3 deception #3 imprisonment #4 gamble #4 illusion #4 mania [Original Story]Complete
In The Name Of Obsession
It started with a mask. And a man who never said a word. A man made of masks and contradictions-danger wrapped in devotion, chaos laced with silk and ink. Roxanne had spent years pretending she's fine- burying the grief, the panic, the pieces of herself that shattered the night her world fell apart. She wasn't supposed to crave him - the stranger who turned her fantasies into something dangerously real. The one who watched her from the shadows, who knew things he shouldn't. He broke into her world, uninvited but impossible to resist. He calls her his. She swears she's not. Yet every look, every touch, every whispered promise pulled her deeper into the storm of him. When secrets start to unravel and the danger closes in, she has to face the truth: what began as a hobby - a game - has turned into something much darker and far too tempting to escape. A dark romance about obsession, redemption, and the kind of love that leaves scars you never want to heal.

Unchain My Heart
Escaping the past was only the beginning. Once a brilliant scientist for the Black Organization, Shiho Miyano now hides behind the name Haibara Ai-quiet, cautious, and living a life that feels borrowed. She may have fled their control, but the echoes of their manipulation still follow her, whispering guilt in every shadow, and haunting her heart like a hollow. Though her new life offers warmth, it still feels cold, as if a piece of her soul was sold. Surrounded by care, yet feeling alone, she wonders if peace is something she's ever truly known. Trapped by her past, she wonders if peace is hers to claim, or if she's just running in circles, too scared to face the blame. The only trust she offers is to the shrunken detective-her beacon, her light. But another stands close, quietly offering his aid, still, she hesitates. Unsure of his true intentions, unsure of what to believe in a world full of dangers. When the past creeps back and the shadows take flight, will she finally decide to trust him, or keep running from what's right?
