The Curse of the Enchanted Forest by brookee_222

Genevieve has always been drawn to the forest near her grandmother's house, though everyone in the village fears its whispered curses. As a child, she encountered a mysterious boy named Kaelen by the riverbank, who warned her to never return. Yet, years later, haunted by vivid dreams of the forest and Kaelen's dark gaze, Genevieve feels the pull of its magic growing stronger. Against her mother's pleas and the village's warnings, she steps into the forbidden woods to uncover the truth. What she finds is a forest teeming with ancient magic, deadly creatures, and secrets older than memory. The forest isn't just alive-it's sentient, twisted by a centuries-old curse tied to an ancient prophecy. Kaelen, now a guarded and enigmatic man, reappears, and though his warnings are fiercer than ever, Genevieve refuses to turn back. Drawn to a hidden clearing, Genevieve discovers a glowing crystal that reacts to her touch, triggering a surge of magic that binds her fate to the forest's. As the prophecy begins to unfold, she learns that she is the one destined to either break the curse or doom the forest forever. But the prophecy's meaning is clouded in riddles, and with each revelation, Genevieve uncovers truths that change everything-about Kaelen, her family, and herself. The forest grows darker and more dangerous, summoning shadow beasts and testing Genevieve's resolve. Kaelen, who has been bound to the forest by his own tragic past, struggles with his desire to protect her and his belief that she should flee before the forest claims her too. As time runs out, Genevieve faces an impossible choice: embrace the prophecy and risk everything to free the forest and its people, or abandon the fight and save herself. But the forest does not forgive, and every decision has a cost. With lush world-building, a gripping romance, and themes of courage and destiny, The Curse of the Enchanted Forest is a spellbinding tale about embracing one's power and defying fate.

Black Obsidian by mrsmoox

In the heart of the ruthless Solkarian Empire, where power is law and dissent is met with steel, Kaelis Valeran is a survivor of her own damnation. Branded a traitor for wielding the forbidden magic of the Obscuralis, she was torn from her home and imprisoned in the fortress of Vareth-a place where pain is a lesson and obedience is carved into flesh. Five years later, she no longer remembers the girl she once was. She has become a weapon honed in darkness, trained to kill at the Empire's command. But the world beyond Vareth has not forgotten her. Elias Prian, the boy who once swore to protect her, has spent years searching for the girl who vanished. When he finds her, he does not recognize the hardened warrior standing in her place.

Cold, calculating, and bound to duty, he sees Kaelis as nothing more than another blade in the Emperor's arsenal-a tool to be sharpened and wielded, not trusted. But when a mission turns into a death sentence, they find themselves hunted by the very Empire that created them.
