| ONC 2024 HONORABLE MENTION |
Pretie Panton, princess of Aecora and sole heir of the Panton bloodline, does not want to marry - at least, not the prince her father has arranged for, who Pretie has never met. However, when her attempt at escape is quickly put to an end, Pretie finds herself in an even worse predicament: cursed to take the form of a mermaid and live isolated from the world she has always known.
Driven by the desire for revenge, Pretie seeks the help of an adventure-seeking mermaid named Ephyra, who has heard legends of a mythical stone that may just be able to transform the princess back into her human self... If it truly is her deepest desire.

It's 2005, and Anna Shumate is just trying to make it through one Friday without detention. She's a prankster, a punk, and allergic to anything that smells like school spirit. But when a house party and a game of Seven Minutes in Heaven throw her into a closet with none other than Sabrina Quesada, the most popular girl in school, everything she thought she knew gets flipped. Over the course of 24 hours, sparks fly, secrets slip out, and two girls from completely different worlds start to realize they might be falling- whether they mean to or not.

Our Curse Breaker (GirlxGirlxGirl)
When the poor temple girl Zinnia catches the attention of her empress, she is dragged away from her home and into the palace, forced to serve her empress and only her. She fears the empresses new arranged wife might hate her guts. Instead, she comes face to face with two power hungry royals out for her heart. Or... The Great Ophion empire is the only empire on the continent where women truly have a say in politics, with temples designed only for women, and a powerful, terrifying empress on the throne. But in truth, after nearly 20 years of war with their neighboring kingdoms, the empire is filled with traitors, and the empress' position hangs by a thread. To keep herself in power, Empress Ensi of Ophion brings peace to her empire, and with it, marries a princess from their largest enemy kingdom, the unruly Delyth of Zeleon. However, right before the wedding a poor temple girl, Zinnia, from the furthest corner of the empire catches the empress' attention, and she brings her to the palace to console herself with her ethereal presence. Taking a temple girl from a temple is highly forbidden, and so, the goddesses curse them both. A curse that binds them together for all eternity, and a curse that only Delyth can break. --- Completed 7 Jan 2025 Completed on Wattpad 19 Jan 2025 Lesbian Polyamorous 🥇templeЗавершенная история
Princess and the frog
Elluria was a princess, beautiful and perfect. She got everything she wanted, and no one needed her to do anything. She just had to look pretty and marry a rich prince. And one day, she met a frog. Could the story her grandmother told her, about a princess and cursed frog prince, be really true? "You never know, unless you try." So she kissed the frog. But it didn't turn into a prince... ___ English is not my first language ^^Завершенная история![Soul's Paradox [GL]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/400411522-256-k921248.jpg)
Soul's Paradox [GL]
Every soul has a secret. Theirs could change the fate of the night itself. When the cursed princess crosses paths with someone hiding a bloodline darker than anyone dares speak, their souls ignite with a forbidden magic that twists reality itself. Every glance is dangerous, every touch drags them deeper into a love bound not only by desire, but by an ancient curse that could either save the realms... or end them. They are tied by blood, fate, and something far darker. And loving each other may be the most dangerous paradox of all. ───────────────────── Disclaimer: This story is written in Tagalog-English. (baklaan) A/N: I honestly wrote this for my partner since she loves reading Wattpad, especially anything supernatural or fantasy. So please, read at your own risk!

Rowans Choice
Completed ✨👸🏼 Born to the fairy elite, the royal line, next in line to take the crown, a queen to be announced on her next birthday, with her royal responsibilities and...one choice... only one... everything else has always been decided for her. "Who has Princess Rowan chosen to be her eternal mate?" A question, oh a question, It was already whittled down by the draw upon her birth, a family name picked at random, to keep this fairy line fair, hardly fair to the one picking, to do so from such a small pool of options. Luckily fairy families were large but as Rowan searched the faces in front of her, five brothers... all handsome, all rather eager to take the beautiful Princess's hand... it was the sister, stood to the left, observing, that caught Rowans eye and if she only got this one choice then it was clear. She had read the rules, many, many times, they clearly state to pick from the chosen families kin, sixteen years and over only, nothing on the gender, not that it had ever been done before but rules were rules and Rowan smirked as she let her choice roll over her tongue. She would choose the one thing her father would be most furious about but couldn't change, her choice, and no other fairy, king or not could change it. "Andromeda" she would announce, finger flexed toward her, and the entire kingdom would erupt in the great hall with shock, as Andromeda of the sky line, was pushed forward by her mother into the mix with her brothers. "Rowan" her father would curse "if you place that ring on her finger your line has ended... please rethink your choice" But Rowan didn't care... and Andy had called out to her long before now, the beautiful brunette with striking green eyes, a daring smile and a powerful magic that Rowan had long admired. And after all... it was Rowans choice... to hell with the rules. *I DO NOT GIVE PERMISSION FOR THIS BOOK TO BE COPIED, OR ADAPTED ON THIS PLATFORM, OR ANY OTHER, BY ANYONE ELSE* *Completed February 2023*Завершенная история
