A new and improved version of my 'Wheat' story I wrote back in 2018. This 2022 version I wrote for university.

During the reign of Pharaoh Ptolemy XII Auletes, a young woman carrying his child is kidnapped and thrust onto a boat down the Nile River. But it's not just her in danger, also the Pharaoh's daughter from her rival, his wife. Setting aside anger, she must somehow get them all off that boat and back home before she goes into labour.

29 parts Ongoing
Abused by her mother and brother after her father was killed during a rogue attack, Val must learn to not give up on herself and to not give up on her family. However, what happens next no one but the Moon Goddess herself and Val's very own grandmother could have predicted. She had lived through her father's death, she had lived through her mother and brother's harsh nature, but will she give up when her wolf spirit, Alania, disappears? And what about her future? She didn't know... Or rather remember just what she is. The Moon Goddess made sure to show her, her forgotten childhood and forgotten reading by her Oracle grandmother. "I've seen it. Her future. I've seen it. The Moon Goddess sent me a vision.... I know who her mate is.... He'll claim her and together they'll bring us war. There's no stopping it. But what I didn't see is what happens after. All I saw was death, destruction, and them...." Follow along as the secrets in Valimina's life suddenly seem to be unleashed. This book will be long and fast paced. It will be full of action, emotions, betrayal and the rising of a new Luna to rule all wolves. Val's story begins at birth when the Moon Goddess chooses her other half to be the one and only Lycan - the beast of childhood nightmares. Heavy editing will occur once this book is finished.

Just when she's decided to leave the Town, Lady Cressida Belverst is forced to marry Lord Calan Haverston, the man who coincidentally knows a way out. Agreeing to marry for all the wrong reasons, can Cressida and Calan find out where their hearts truly belong? *** It is impossible to leave the Town, but one woman is determined to escape with the help of her betrothed. Lady Cressida Belverst has always been judged as a walking scandal. Oh, how she tries (on some rare occasions) to be proper! When her parents arrange for her to marry a rich lord, Cressida has had enough. She has to leave the Town because she will not be forced to live with a man she doesn't love. But what happens if the very man she's betrothed to is the only one who can help her get out? Calan Haverston, the Lord of Easton, takes the risk and helps his betrothed by using his knowledge of the Town's secrets because he is as willing as she to stay free of marriage for reasons completely different. He has dark secrets he cannot share with her, and his life is not one he can likewise open to anyone. But what happens when she leaves after awakening desires he thought he has under control? And what happens when he finds himself longing for her? Cressida goes to a completely different place, one she has only heard in stories and read in books, with hopes of finding what her heart has always longed for. But love, mystery and secrets will chase her and it will only be a matter of time before she realizes what her heart truly desires. *This story is a standalone title in the Haverston Family series.
Bride of Sultan ~  The Forgotten Rose by magicallovely
35 parts Ongoing
This was my first time. I patiently waited for the man Dua Begum told me would be my first to bed with. After starting to bleed two years ago, my stepmother left me at a pleasure house when my father abandoned us. Since then, I've accepted the pleasure house as my new home. He walked in a black Kurta with subtle green eyes and a deep voice. The moment he asked my name and age and then proposed to me for the wedding, I fell in love. There was no denying it. I was just fifteen, and he was nineteen. But, ever since the night of our wedding, he has not come back to take me with him to his home. He left me alone, stranded, burning for him. I did not know who he was. What did he do? All I knew was that he was the soul of my World. My Jaan-e-Jahan. Seven years later, he came back as a storm in my life. As Sultan Rehman Sulaiman. The son of the man who took everything from my family, even before my birth. The reason I ended up in the Pleasure House in the first place. But my love for my husband, the Sultan, is bigger than the mountains, deeper than the oceans, and wider than the skies, even though he is himself a Mountain, impossible to move, an ocean, scaring people to stay away, and a wide sky, impossible to reach. Discipline is everything for him. He is full of love and respect for his family but equally heartless and dangerous toward those who cross him. And, in all of this, I entered his life as a burning flame, a tiny candle's flame, dancing for his attention, crying for his affection, and dying for his love. Until he killed my only loved one. My love died. And, his never bloomed. I was once a bud, unbloomed Rose, who opened my deep red petals for him, and he turned them black, leaving me forgotten inside the dying pages. Was I always forgotten for him? Did he never consider me anything more than a mere responsibility? Will I always be remembered as Bride of Sultan ~ The Forgotten Rose?

I'll Protect This Cannon Fodder in the Family Rivalry Novel!" 宠妾灭妻? 这宅斗文炮灰我罩了 Born and raised as the cherished daughter of a marquis's household, Wei Hanzhang had no grand ambitions in life. She only dreamed of marrying her childhood sweetheart and living a happy life together. Unexpectedly, before they could marry, her childhood sweetheart took two concubines!

Her elder sister was the cannon fodder who was framed and lost her reputation at the beginning. Her maternal family was a minor character family that was quickly destroyed in the original story. And she... She didn't even exist in the original book! Unacceptable! How could she be a mere cannon fodder? Since she was here and had received the grace of life, she had to protect her family. If her childhood sweetheart was unreliable, the Prince next door seemed quite nice.
