** When their beloved mistress is murdered, a white raven and a black fox embark on a journey for revenge. Will the brave familiars manage to recover the stolen heart in time - or would they lose themselves? **

"Sometimes love is 
what drives you to take your next breath. 
Other times, it's revenge."
- ONC24EN Prompt #27 - 

When the guardian of a fairy grove is cruelly murdered for the source of her power, her two familiars and faithful protectors are left broken and lost. 
But soon, their despair changes, and from  this moment on, they are driven by one desire alone: Revenge. 
They embark on a death-defying journey with the little strength they have left to reclaim the stolen heart. Will the black fox Cian and the white Raven Lir manage together to steal back the soul of their beloved mistress before their magic is used up and their lives are forfeit? 
Or will they turn back into what they once were and lose themselves forever?
Time is running out, because the two nature spirits don't have much fairy magic left, as the cruel thief has his own sinister plans...

Once Upon a Fairytale by TatiaSamaelPetrova
37 parts Complete
Avoid looking into those golden eyes. One look is enough and you will be lost forever. Once upon a time, beyond the forests and mountains, where the leaves always wore the color of autumn, a girl with great talent grew up, with her mother and father. One day, however, their happiness was stolen by tragedy. Her mother fell ill and death called her to the other side. Nothing was the same anymore. Her father remarried. And in the end, time took him away too. Iris was left alone with her stepmother and stepsister. They made her a maid, a slave. A prisoner of a life she hated. But something deep inside her prevented her from leaving the house she grew up in - her home. There, as a child, she created all the miracles with her mother and wanted to continue doing so, to give joy to those less fortunate. Like when she made a dress for the butcher's wife, whom her husband no longer loved, that made her irresistible to him again. Or when she made a shirt for her best friend Jace that was supposed to protect him from the edge of swords, since he liked to provoke the royal guards. Her little secret. But one day, her peaceful life decides to take a completely different direction and everything goes wrong. She meets a prince. She helps her stepsister win him for herself. And ancient family secrets get involved when a demon she is magically bonded with appears. A long-hidden story begins to unfold before her, revealing the truth about her mother, her ancient ancestors, and herself. And it all started with her simply taking off the necklace she should never have taken off.

When Maeve Valentine steps onto the stage of the most secretive auction in the world, she tells herself it's just a year. One year of belonging to a stranger in exchange for saving her family from drowning in debt. For paying her little sister's medical bills. For surviving. But the man who buys her isn't a stranger. He's the boy whose life shattered the day she testified in court. The boy who lost everything. The man who made sure she'd forget him. Damian Ashwood is no longer the quiet shadow from her past. Now, he's powerful. Ruthless. Rich beyond measure. And he's been waiting years to make her pay. Legally bound to stay by his side for twelve long months, Maeve must marry him within the first thirty days, obey the rules, and never breathe a word of the truth. When she begs to see her family again, they go-together. As a couple. In love. It's a lie. It's survival. Until the lines between hatred and desire begin to blur. Because Damian doesn't just want revenge. He wants to own her. And he's willing to burn the world to keep her. #1 seductive 25.07.25 #1 twistedlove 25.07.25 #1 billionaire 25.07.26 #2 steamy 25.07.25 #5 enemiestolovers 07.09.25 #14 slowburn 07.09.25 #69 love 07.08.25

"From today onwards, you'll be our captive. Our acquisition. Your life will be resigned to this chamber, to serving us. You'll answer to our every beck and call, and should you try to be defiant, we wouldn't hesitate to strip you bare and whip the devil out of you before locking you up in the dungeons without food and water. Are. We. Clear?" He ground out, punctuating the words with feral anger. Tears burned Elaine's eyes, her body shaking like a leaf in the wind, filled with trepidation. She choked on her own sob, but she had to answer. "Yes... Masters." She forced out, pitifully breaking into a sob. Their lips twitched then. "Welcome to your new life, Elaine. We hope you enjoy it." ******* Princess Elaine Renee Valys has always lived a sheltered life, hidden away in a tower on the outskirts of her father's kingdom. But she's had enough of it, secretly wishing for the day her father would call her home and she would be allowed to explore the world. It finally happens, but not in the way she expects. She falls right into the claws of the Brother Kings, who have completely different plans for her. King Ryker and King Marlon are the Brother Kings who are out for revenge and carnage. Once slaves to the despicable King Thraine, they have returned to destroy the very thing he holds dear - his kingdom. They stumble upon Elaine, hidden and the lone survivor of the massacre that has befallen King Thraine's family, and take her as a trophy, a reminder of their victory. Elaine is to be their captive, the subject of their cruel jokes and sinister actions until they have had enough. Except, things don't go the way any of them planned, and fate is about to throw a wicked curveball at them. Will Elaine be able to escape their darkness, or will she become a pawn in their deadly game? 1 in mfm on 31/7/2025 1 in spicyslowburn on 1/8/2025 2 in dreamlandbooks on 2/8/2025

Until then, consider your ruin a promise of mine." ~ ~ Four years ago, Yin Ruwei sold her blood to the northern god Xuanwu in return for revenge. Now, after years of perfectly orchestrated deaths at hands that are not her own, she snaps and puts red in her ledger, killing a man personally. Mu'en is more brutal, more cunning . . . and less heartless than he'd wish the world to know. Someone has been killing off his men with all the fury of a hurricane. Tearstained anger blankets every death and he almost feels sorry for the murderer - until they kill the man he loves. Ruwei and Mu'en find themselves on two sides of the same coin, counting fate like they do the stars in the sky, hoping for a better day, a happier life, a brighter world in the shadows they call home. Sometimes you must seek what you've lost to retrieve it again. Sometimes that which you've lost can no longer be retrieved. And sometimes, just sometimes, those broken pieces find their way back to you. ~ ~ ONC 2020. Prompt 4.

Wandless: Crossed Currents

10 parts Ongoing

Heather Winters never expected to teach at Hogwarts. An American witch expelled from Ilvermorny and widowed five months ago, she's brought in to teach wandless magic-a discipline most British wizards dismiss as impossible. Between skeptical colleagues, curious students, and her own grief, she's braced for a difficult year. She isn't prepared for Severus Snape. When a classroom demonstration goes wrong, their magic tangles into a rare dream-bond-forcing them to share memories, emotions, and the brutal honesty they'd never risk while awake. What begins as open rivalry becomes something far more dangerous: understanding. But as Sirius Black stalks the grounds and Dementors close in, trust is a luxury neither can afford.
