Two girls from different worlds, thrown together in a quest for freedom. 

Death is what every Orcus expects. Elementals enslaved by a warring country, forced to fight by a bracelet placed on their arm at birth to control their magic. Senara has always lived with that expectation over her head, day in and day out, forced to fight in battles and wars she has no stake in. Until her handler is killed, giving her the chance she needs to escape.
In her attempt to hide from a prince who wants nothing more than to wield her as a weapon, Senara stumbles on a portal to another world. To... Florida? And there she meets a college girl whose worst battle in life is trying to pass her next English exam. This world is easy. Soft. And would make a great place to hide.
But the bracelet calls her back, forcing her to return to her homeland to find a way to get it removed. If she can't succeed, she'll be enslaved to the prince, coerced into fighting his battles for him.
She isn't going back alone.
Can a newly forged friendship survive the threats that a world of magic and war put on it? Can Senara and Meri?

Phantom Moon (Nora's part) by KLHansen2

Nora is enemies with her own family. It's been that way for a while, but not like this. Now, they want her dead. Not to mention that ever since the Board killed the rest of Ander's family, he's been randomly going crazy and killing people. Nora doesn't want to worry him more by expressing her concern, but she's scared, and there are even bigger problems at hand. Her father is one of the best bounty hunters the Board has, and he's got no bigger bounty than Nora and Ander themselves. Ander is afraid. Afraid of keeping secrets. Afraid of revealing them. Necromicon is back. Ander can't seem to get rid of the book of the dead. On the run, with few places to hid, perhaps he might have to use the book after all. And there is also the curse he bears in the Phantom Realm. Ander knows what he did wrong, but if he had to suffer for it, he wouldn't want Nora to suffer the same fate. This is a colaborative story with anderkawasaki. At the end of each part, switch to the other part.

The Book of Trials || ONC 2019 by Kehanni

When Veia Phelde is cursed, she hardly expects the ruin it will invoke, but will breaking the curse come at a cost more than its worth in blood? +++ Veia Phelde had been satisfied with her life in her small cottage in the woods, never bothering anyone save for her job as a blacksmith's apprentice. But when she loses her job, Veia is forced out of her comfort zone only to run into a simple book that means so much more than she wants it to. With blank white pages and a title carved by knife, the single word that scars the leather can only be the work of fate, and the danger it contains... well, let's just say that's fate, too. When a devilishly handsome traveler offers to take her to the City of Magic to break the curse, Veia finds herself hopelessly entangled in a danger more powerful than she could ever know. +++ ~ Featured Wattpad Picks: Hidden Gem (May 2020) ~ @StoriesUndiscovered Diamond list (2019) ~ 2nd place in action/adventure, Coral Awards 2021 ~ 2nd place in action/adventure, The Pantheon Awards 2020 ~ 3rd place in adventure, The Blue Rose Awards, August 2019 ~ Written for the Open Novella Contest 2019, gen fic open prompt (since expanded; 45k word count) ~ Also available on Inkitt, Prose, Sweek, and Quotev (but Wattpad has the best version) ;) Beautiful cover by @TheFashionPixie

Chains of Nect: Obsidian's Obsession by AlexaGrave

Obsidian successfully plays the game expected of her, passes the tests, and is accepted as a Guardian. Though she jumps through the hoops, she doesn't want to follow the precepts at all, to guard the portals but never open them. She believes its a waste to not explore the worlds within, like her ancestors had. How can they protect themselves if something comes through the portals if they don't know what's in them? Obsidian's appointed mentor, Damian, is a straight-laced young Guardian, who can't contain the young dedicant. He's always believed the laws are in place to protect all of Nect, but Obsidian starts to make him question his own principles. She doesn't allow him any time to examine the possibilities, though, and he has to decide between reporting her or standing by her side to protect her from whatever horrors she stirs up. Will the Guardians end Obsidian's life, or will something from another world get to her first? ***One new chapter will be posted about once every two months.*** ***WARNING: This is rough draft material. Don't be surprised if you fall into plot holes, trip over inconsistencies, and get hit in the head with direction changes. I've done my best to read through several times before posting, though, to make sure most spelling and grammar errors are corrected. Any constructive comments are welcome for when I revise this novel. Thank you for reading!***

Shadow Archive by ReezWriter

When the world collapsed, it wasn't war, famine, or plague that brought it down. It was words. Sentient grimoires devoured cities. Living paragraphs swallowed memories. And language itself fractured reality. Kael Orven, once a brilliant young Librarian, now roams the ruins with no past beyond the glyphs carved into his arm-glyphs that burn every time he faces a corrupted text. When he witnesses a book eat a man's face, Kael realizes something terrifying: The words remember him. And they want him back. Forced into an uneasy alliance with Lira Vein, a blind exorcist who "hears corruption," Kael enters the war between Archivists, cults, and Monarch-class Grimoires capable of rewriting the world. But every answer he finds only leads to one terrifying truth: Kael once opened the Shadow Archive... and he is the reason the world collapsed. Now the grimoires are whispering again. The Monarch is returning. And the last line of the world is already being written. To save the future, Kael must walk back into the catastrophe he created- and rewrite the story that erased him. If it doesn't erase him again first. 🔥 Perfect for fans of: dark fantasy, cosmic horror, grim magic systems, emotional duos, tragic pasts, and post-apocalyptic mystery.

As the Crow Falls | ✔ by SmokeAndOranges

Niccola is a demi-queen undercover in enemy territory. Her little sister went missing seven moons ago, but one lead remains: a picture of a woman's face, drawn by a diviner shortly after the disappearance. Tracking her down has led Niccola to Calis, the realm next door whose border with her own remains closed for a reason. There, the trail goes cold. Until, that is, Niccola runs into a man in the marketplace who bears a family resemblance to the woman she seeks. His name is Isaiah, crown prince of Calis, and he's investigating disappearances, too. They join forces, faking courtship to sneak Niccola into the palace and get Isaiah's wedding-minded mother off his back. It doesn't take long to suspect that a common threat might underpin both their realms' problems. And as Niccola begins to develop real feelings for Isaiah, she's faced with an impossible choice: reveal her secrets and risk breaking his trust, or leave him in order to chase down the woman who stole her sister... a woman whose forbidden magic comes with a cost that could bring both realms to ruin. ❖❖❖ Complete and fully edited.

Haunted by the tragic loss of her family and the dangerous magic that courses through her veins, Elara's only hope is to remain invisible. But when she is captured and imprisoned by the Order, her fate seems sealed-until a mysterious woman with violet eyes frees her, revealing that Elara's powers may be the key to a rebellion that could change the kingdom's future. Kael, a loyal warrior of the Magi Order, has dedicated his life to hunting sorcerers. But when he captures Elara, something within him shifts.

"Emerald Shadows"is a tale of magic, betrayal, and forbidden love, where the line between friend and foe is as elusive as the shadows in which they hide.

OUTLAWED by Bella66

Elara, a young girl born into a broken world, where the royal family holds absolute power and mages-those with the ability to manipulate the elements-are hunted to the death. After witnessing the brutal murder of her father at the hands of the royal family, Elara's mother hides her daughter's identity, pretending to be the mage in order to protect her. But when the royal family learns of a new mage bearing a powerful mark, they arrive at Elara's home, and her mother sacrifices herself to save her daughter. With her mother's death haunting her and the royal family's forces hot on her trail, Elara flees into the woods, unveiling the magic she's kept hidden for years. In the depths of the forest, Elara discovers a hidden group of mages-boys and girls, families-each with their own elemental power: fire, water, earth, air, blood, metal, and ice. For the first time in her life, Elara is not alone. But her refuge is fragile. As the royal family intensifies its search, Elara must decide whether to stay hidden in the shadows or rise up with these newfound allies to reclaim her life and bring justice to those who destroyed her family. With vengeance in her heart, Elara's journey becomes a fight for survival, and a rebellion against the oppressive rule that has outlawed her very existence.

Ashvale : The Healer & The Flame by ryuunova14

When thirty-two-year-old Elara dies in the modern world, she awakens in the past - in a kingdom ravaged by disease, cruelty, and silence. Branded a witch for her knowledge of the future, she is cast into the infamous Plague Zone - a place abandoned by the crown, where only the sick, the broken, and the outlaws survive. But Elara doesn't perish. She heals. She builds. She remembers. Among the ruin, she finds a wounded man on the brink of death - a stranger with fire in his blood and a past he refuses to speak of. He is Kael, the forgotten bastard of the royal bloodline. Together, they ignite hope in a place long buried in ash. As whispers of rebellion grow and truth begins to surface, Elara must race to stop a man-made plague designed to silence the kingdom forever - a plague unleashed by the very prince who cast her out. But when Kael's true heritage is revealed, the final choice isn't just who will survive... ...it's who deserves to lead. In a world built on blood and crowns, a healer and a forgotten heir must teach a kingdom how to rise - not through conquest... but compassion.

But can Evelyne trust the man who stole her very soul? And will Cassian return her Heartstone when doing so might mean losing her forever?
