Waking up in a world that reads like legends, Nova finds herself having to adapt to the unfamiliar realm of Aldynria, where humans bear the burden of scorn for their absence of magical prowess. In this land of unfamiliar creatures, they are labeled 'the other,' and amnesia shrouds their past lives, a shared enigma that none seem as troubled by as Nova does.
Amidst this curious assembly of Werewolves, Brownies, Faeries, Vampires, and even more obscure, elusive beings lurking in the shadows of the frosted forest, Nova's aspirations are as simple as they are seemingly impossible. First, she must carve her place in a world deeply distrustful of humans. Second, to one day uncover her origins and find a way back home.
Yet, destiny has other plans when Nova becomes a servant in the residence of the High-Fae Lord, the ruler of Aldynria. The new priority: evade him at all costs, for he seems as dangerous as he hates humans. Yet, the simplest task becomes her greatest challenge when faced with someone who's as irresistible as he is unattainable.

The Dark Warlock: The Nox Haven Series
Destiny. It was a funny thing. I had always thought that I could create my own destiny. But after attending my junior year at Nox Haven, I knew that wasn't possible. My destiny was written two hundred years before my birth, when my ancestor- The Dark Warlock- created a cult of Dark Ones. It was my destiny to rid the world of his mistake- but I didn't know how. That was the funny part, I knew what I had to do but I didn't know how. Nobody wrote that part of the prophecy. I would figure it out though, two of my beloved friends were dead because the Dark Ones. I swore on their graves that no one else would follow. **Book Three in the Nox Haven Series**Complete
Where the Roots Begin
What if you had the ability to write? What if you couldn't control the story you created? And what if, the magic kingdom your hands are so keen on writing about turned out to be real? Alessandra is used to the way things are. Life isn't great, but in no time she'll leave her small town behind. Everyday is the same to her, that is, until she gets kidnapped and taken to a Lab, where she receives training for what's on the other side of a mysterious portal -even though no one really knows what that is, exactly. When Alessandra is sent through, she finds herself in a strange forest, with the young king of an old kingdom, very much like the place she dreams and writes about. But this place is different, and once Alessandra starts unraveling the truth, she realizes some things are better kept hidden.Complete
The Dark Witch: The Nox Haven Series
I'd Like to think I was a good person, before it all began. I didn't cheat on tests, or steal. But throughout my entire life, I was treated if I were a monster. At the age of five, after several agonizing tests, I was diagnosed with Reactive Attachment Disorder. But not even that title could describe just how strange I was. When another kid got hurt, I would cry. Whenever someone else was told a funny joke, I would laugh hysterically. People looked at me as if I were crazy- and for while I agreed with them. That was until I, Caddie Jones, was exiled to Nox Haven Academy, a school for truly special kids. Not the mentally ill, psychotic kind of special but the magical kind. Like witches, vampires, fairies and werewolves. Call me crazy if you want, you wouldn't be the first. But the stories are all true. The supernatural did exist and I was one of them. Life there was cool until suddenly, I was faced with two-faced witches, egotistical princes, hormone driven werewolves, and an army of evil warlocks who were threatening to destroy the world. ... Maybe Nox Haven was a school for psychos after all. ---------------------------------------------------------- Highest Rank: #2 in Paranormal 1st Place winner of The Night Shift's Killer Competition 4/10/16 Illustration by: Stephanie Pitino (www.ClairObscur.fr) (1st book in series)Complete

Her Secret
I sighed heavily as I scanned the forest. I had heard something or someone to be specific, wandering about. I decided I would leave once I affirmed they weren't a danger. "What are you doing in my land, human?" A deep enchanting voice spoke I sighed once again "I'm not human, just smell like one" I spoke as I turned around to see the most stunning man I have ever seen "Mate" he spoke "Find another female, Lycan" I spat He only growled at me in response. Men. My brother was the same way. It's kinda funny how all, correction, most shifter men think alike. I would've thought he would be different, after all, he is Lycan. Something of myths. But then again, so are the supernatural. I turned away from him, not even looking at him. I didn't want to remember what he looked like so I didn't give him a second glance. I heard him move closer. I quickly grabbed the knife out of my holster and threw it at a tree next to him. He stops moving then. "Heed my warning. It's the only one you'll get" I spoke coldly "I will find you. Then you will have no escape from me" he spoke as he backed away I could understand. Lycans, like lion-shifters, were going extinct. Therefore mates were even more important to them. But, even if I understood I still didn't want to be someone's mate. After all, I was Destiny Requalhi, Creator and Destructor of All. ------------------------------ Destiny Requalhi, a girl with a rough past and set in stone future.

As the Crow Falls | ✔
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.

Under His Control (BXB)
"Why are you here?" "You called for me, young warlock. I've heard a lot about you from The Beyond. Thank you for summoning me into your world, by the way" he smirked at me, so close now I could feel his breath on my face. I'd hoped I would never see one of his kind. And I wish I never had. ~~~ As a kid, Storm has never had much freedom. He wasn't allowed to go to school until year seven because his father was afraid he'd reveal himself to the general population, the humans, the people Storm and the others of his kind are sworn to protect. Because Storm isn't an ordinary nineteen year old, as much as he'd love that to be the case. He's a warlock in training, taking a sports course during the day and learning magic with his father at night. He's always been a sensible boy, until he made the greatest mistake of his life... A mistake he may live to regret for eternity.Complete
Supernova
Zora always knew she didn't belong to this world. She didn't even know her real name. She never met her birth parents, having been left in a firehouse as a 6-month-old baby. Zora has bounced from one foster home to the next since she was a troubled child. Bad things, or "accidents" always followed Zora. She always felt like she was one step behind everyone else trying to catch up. Trying to be normal, but Zora is not normal. And never will be. Bryce Cullen is another lost soul in the world. He is also one of a kind. When they first met it was a supernova, two stars coming together in a stellar collision with stellar dynamics. As an evil is looming, threatening to destroy the Earth, can these two outliers save the world with powers neither utterly understand? ~~~~~~~~~~~ Zora could only shiver as: his eyes darken looking at her, becoming more onyx black, and purple bruise-like shadows appear beneath his eyes. Bryce stands at 6'2" and has a thin and lanky but muscular body. Zora felt a tiny piercing pain trying to hit her over and over, but somehow it was blocked. "Where am I?" "Who are you?" Bryce asked sternly, glaring down at Zora. "It's her!" Piper said running onto the field. "That's the girl! She is the girl from my dreams! She is the one to bring Hell Fire!" ~~~~~~~~~~~ Updates every Wednesdays! Participating in: #theseasonalcontestComplete
