The Blue Crystal by artelunis

Jesse thinks Lily is some powerful hero destined to save the world with her, and Lily is simply not. Lily can't do anything. She barely passes through school. She has no friends. She's an outcast. She can't stand up for herself, let alone anyone else. She can't fight. She doesn't believe she has powers. It just isn't possible... she's only 14. The closest thing she's had to an adventure was the walk from her house to the bus stop. She is in no way prepared for what is to come, but for some reason, she's going to do it anyway. Maybe it's because she has something to prove, maybe it's because her life doesn't matter to her, or maybe it's just in her blood and she never knew. Regardless, it will be the adventure of a lifetime, and one that will change her forever.

Neverland's Curse by dontblameitonthekids

Lily Thornbush has always dreamed of adventure, but she never expected to wake up in a world that defies time itself. When she's pulled into Neverland by a shadowy force, she finds the island far from the whimsical paradise of fairy tales. This Neverland is darker, its magic twisted, its ruler-Peter Pan-no longer the mischievous boy from legend but a man hardened by time, cursed to remain in his prime while those around him wither or fade. Peter is possessive, dangerous, and utterly captivated by Lily. He believes she is the key to breaking Neverland's curse, but his obsession with her goes deeper than magic. Torn between the man who both tempts and terrifies her, and the dark forces lurking beneath Neverland's surface, Lily must decide: does she fight for her freedom, or does she let Peter consume her completely?

Paragon - Book I by azimodo

*COMPLETE* There are whispers across the kingdoms that the Paragon, that strangely gifted person who can wield all four Skills, has been found. They're wrong, of course. No one has caught the Paragon. Allayria should know: she's it. But Allayria doesn't want to be the Paragon, and in her pursuit of freedom she finds herself enmeshed in a web of lies, caught in a group who might be even more dangerous than she could have imagined. Still, she's not the only one who has problems: bigger tides of change and danger are shifting across the world she has been assigned to protect. The Jarles, a kingdom in the east, has begun moving across its borders, and there are strange murmurings about what they have done, and where all the children they abducted have gone. Faced with responsibilities she never wanted, and a life she thought she could never have, Allayria must decide how she will help--and if she will be the Paragon at all. _____________________ WIP Cover art and written work by Azi.

Having spent years honing her skills in secrecy, Lily steps into the spotlight with a singular mission: to dismantle the corrupt structures that have oppressed her people and build a new empire from the ashes. She confronts formidable adversaries, including rival factions and old enemies, each seeking to either destroy her or co-opt her ambitions for their own ends. As Lily asserts her dominance, she faces the daunting reality of ruling an empire where every move is scrutinized and every decision carries immense consequences. Her journey is one of self-discovery and relentless ambition, as she transforms from a shadowy figure into the undisputed Queen of Wendel, a title she wears with both pride and defiance.
