An up-and-coming poet and struggling grad student, 24-year-old Lillie Glass has enough to worry about in her life. Yet a new discovery that the words in her poems are becoming eldritch -- and sometimes outright dangerous -- realities threatens to destroy what little routine she has. It isn't long before Lillie becomes afraid to do the very thing she's passionate about, the pages before her remaining blank. 

27-year-old Felix Montenegro is the latest bearer of a curse that has plagued his family for decades: his right eye holding a ceaseless storm within it that obscures his vision and can influence the weather around him if he isn't careful. He's never considered before that there might be a way to break the Montenegro curse or understand it differently, until he meets a certain poet whose words show him a new horizon.

Spurred by chance and circumstance, Lillie and Felix set out to achieve what seems to be an impossible feat: to see their magical afflictions for what they truly are, and at last, to break the cycle.

As the only child of Alpha Peter, she knows that it's her birthright to lead the pack one day and that it'll be essential for a powerful mate to be at her side. When an odd twist of fate leads to a chance meeting and one impulsive decision tears them apart, Merida and Melody go on a four year hunt, desperately trying to save her mate before she loses them forever. After a horrific incident results in the loss of her humanity and innocence, Mia Agrinya runs away from home and from the people she loved at the age of sixteen. Now, four years later, she struggles trying maintain a normal life with a crazed beast inside her that she can barely tame. When a sudden encounter with her once adorable, now feisty and alluring, step sister drags her back into the strange world she'd abandoned, Mia becomes faced with a hard past that threatens the fragile balance between her and Madness. When a dark presence takes the form of a trusted friend and a secret curse threatens the peaceful balance of the pack, Melody and Madness become faced with a reality neither of them would expect and feelings one of them might not be able to handle. Will the curse tear them apart again or will they defy fate to mend their broken bond? #1 in freeyourmind 6/3/23 #3 in freeyourmind 5/28/23

Awakening - The Last Science #1 by Etzoli

No one ever knows the whole story... Nestled deep in the forests of the Pacific Northwest, something is emerging. Kept in absolute secrecy, it seeps into a fading town, quietly shared from person to person. For Alden Bensen, a directionless high school graduate, this discovery could mean an escape from his empty existence. To Rachel DuValle, perpetually underestimated and dismissed by the world, magic represents a chance to become something much greater than herself. In the face of an unsuspecting world, their decisions shape the growth of a budding society discovering untold power. This potent force offers anyone the power to change humanity forever - or send it cascading into swift and total annihilation. ----- The Last Science is an ongoing science-fiction / low-fantasy web novel series.

Whispers of the Forgotten by original_Maz

Elena Varela has always felt like an outsider. Growing up in a quiet coastal town, she is drawn to the mysterious lighthouse that stands at the edge of the cliffs. Legend says it's been abandoned for decades, but every full moon, Elena swears she sees lights flickering within. One stormy night, following a strange, haunting melody, she is led to the lighthouse where she encounters a man-Sebastian-whose face she recognizes, but from where, she can't recall. Sebastian is not what he seems. He claims to be from another time, trapped in the lighthouse after an ancient curse was cast on him centuries ago. He tells Elena that she is the key to breaking his curse, but there's more to the story. A powerful entity, forgotten by history, has bound Sebastian to protect something precious hidden within the lighthouse-something that has the power to rewrite the past. As Elena and Sebastian grow closer, they uncover secrets about their intertwined fates. Elena discovers that her own lineage is tied to the origin of the curse, and she must decide whether to trust Sebastian, risking the fabric of time itself, or let him remain trapped for eternity. Together, they face dangerous forces, ancient magic, and a race against time to uncover the truth. Hi guys. Thank you for checking my story. Hope you enjoy and follow me 🥰 Can't wait to know you all.

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

𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝑽𝒂𝒎𝒑𝒊𝒓𝒆'𝒔 𝑭𝒐𝒓𝒃𝒊𝒅𝒅𝒆𝒏 𝑴𝒂𝒕𝒆 by EclipseFiction

Azrael Draven a 1000 years old prince, was born to rule-a vampire prince cursed to wander the centuries, searching for her. The one human who can break his fate. The only key to his throne. But every woman he touches perishes, consumed by the darkness in his blood. Then he finds her. She a 21 year old girl, is divinity in mortal form, a girl who sees through lies, hears unspoken thoughts, and repels the very creatures that stalk the night. A force that should not exist. A light that burns him alive. He cannot touch her. Yet, he cannot stay away. She feels him watching-an unseen presence slipping into her dreams, whispering her name like a promise and a curse. But when she learns the truth, when she sees the monster behind the silver eyes, will she run... or will she fall? He is death. She is the cure. And if they come together-one of them will break. Written by Tannaj Parveen.
