In the heart of a mist-laden forest, where the shadows danced with secrets and whispers hung in the air like a shroud, there stood a castle. Its ancient stones bore the weight of centuries, and within its walls dwelled a queen unlike any other. She was a vampire witch, with eyes like embers and a presence that commanded both fear and reverence. Yet beneath her regal facade lay a soul burdened by centuries of trauma.

Queen Elara was her name, and she ruled over the realm of shadows with an iron will tempered by the anguish of her past. Long ago, before she became a creature of the night, she had been a young witch filled with dreams of love and power. But fate had been cruel, tearing away everything she held dear in a violent storm of betrayal and loss.

Haunted by the memories of her past, Elara had embraced the darkness, seeking solace in the icy embrace of eternal night. She had delved deep into the forbidden arts, mastering the ancient magics that whispered of forgotten realms and forbidden desires. With each passing year, her power grew, until she was feared by mortal and supernatural alike.

But beneath his cold exterior lies a darkness even he cannot control, a darkness that begins to unravel the moment he meets Isabella. Drawn to her strength and beauty, Sylus is determined to possess her, even if it means risking everything he's built.As Isabella digs deeper into Sylus's operations, she uncovers a hidden secret, the N19zone-a clandestine network that holds the key to his empire. But the closer she gets to the truth, the more dangerous the game becomes.

Welcome to "The Devil's Game," where the stakes are high, the players ruthless, and love is the most dangerous game of all.

Enslaved to Icarus (The Pariah Book 1) by shaziyakhanwrites
6 parts Ongoing
"The curse entailed that only the blood that sought yours, can free you of the curse, until then you shall be asleep." Icarus smirked at her words, he knew where this was going as she continued, "Because your blood is-" "Poisonous and repulsive." She nodded. "So, it's unbelievable that she was the one whose blood sought yours, a human, but it did, or perhaps it was your blood that sought hers...," she mulled over it. "But it's wrong, against the natural-" she observed his gaze. Talking about some natural order of the universe was not something that would befit his ears, given that he was the very example of the abomination formed against the natural laws and order of the blood. ~~ No one knew who he was, or where he came from? But he did, and he conquered all the existing realms, hidden and not so hidden from the human world, and built his kingdom upon the ruins of his enemies. Yet, he remained a pariah. Always was. Always will be. He was Icarus. The Monster. The Legend. The Evil. The Pariah. ~~ Everyone knew her to be a scared little kitten. She looked like one too with her snowy white hair, cerulean blue eyes, and a questionable fate. ~~ What was supposed to be a ridiculous adventure, suggested by her equally ridiculous brave friend turned her life into a whirlwind of crazy and bloody, when she stumbled and accidentally awakened the sleeping, ravenous, and absolutely psychotic monster, Icarus. What made her the lucky woman to jostle him out of his centuries of sleep? As a thanks, she was rewarded with the title of being his most beloved SLAVE. Dive into their journey as we unravel their ribbons of fate, and immerse ourselves into their complicated relationship. ~~ This book is a dark fantasy romance novel and Icarus is an original fantasy character that I created. He is not a vampire or a werewolf but something entirely new and interesting.
"Elara~Prince Twisted Obsession"  by softlysinister
30 parts Ongoing
In the grand kingdom of Verathia, where power and politics rule, Prince Alistair is known as a cold and calculating figure in the royal court. Born into a world of betrayal, alliances, and constant scrutiny, Alistair learned from a young age that love is a weakness he cannot afford. He's known for his sharp intellect and ruthless decisions in court, having been groomed to take over the throne. However, behind closed doors, his obsession isn't with power-it's with a commoner, Lady Elara. Elara is an innocent, kind-hearted young woman from a noble yet distant family, largely removed from the palace's inner workings. She's sweet, humble, and untouched by the court's manipulations. She meets Alistair by chance when her family is summoned to court over a land dispute. Unaware of the prince's intense gaze, Elara quickly becomes the object of his fascination. What begins as an innocent meeting soon turns into a dangerous game as Alistair's obsession with Elara grows. He is determined to keep her close, seeing her as the only source of purity in his dark world. Alistair views Elara as a symbol of purity in his otherwise corrupt world, and his obsession with her is driven by a desire to possess something untainted by power. He is deeply conflicted, as his obsession is at odds with his belief that emotions are weaknesses. Elara, on the other hand, is unaware of the extent of Alistair's obsession. While she may feel a sense of intrigue or fascination with him, she is largely naive to the depth of his intentions, making her a target of his possessive nature without fully understanding the danger.

In the heart of a secluded, mist-shrouded valley, where ancient trees stand sentinel and the air is thick with secrets, "Whispers in the Mist" unfolds. As the first light of dawn breaks through the dense canopy, it reveals an enchanting world of untamed wilderness and mystery. The protagonist, a curious and determined young woman named Elara, embarks on a journey through this enigmatic realm. Her path winds through towering groves of ancient redwoods, their colossal trunks cloaked in emerald moss, and vines that seem to reach out like ghostly fingers. The forest floor is a carpet of velvety moss, where dew-kissed ferns unfurl their delicate fronds with every cautious step. Amidst the ethereal mist that swirls through the trees, Elara stumbles upon a forgotten, overgrown path leading to a hidden village. As she approaches, the dilapidated cottages emerge from the fog like specters from another era. The village seems abandoned, but the echoes of laughter and the scent of meals once cooked in those kitchens linger in the air, hinting at a vibrant past. Beyond the village, Elara discovers a hidden glen adorned with a profusion of wildflowers in every hue imaginable. It's a place where time seems to stand still, and the songs of unseen birds fill the air with an enchanting melody. At the heart of the glen, a colossal, gnarled oak tree stands sentinel, its roots intertwined with legends and folklore. Throughout "Whispers in the Mist," the natural world is as much a character as the people who inhabit it. The misty valley, with its ancient trees, hidden villages, and meandering river, becomes a realm where secrets are unearthed, destinies entwined, and the boundaries between reality and enchantment blur. Readers will find themselves transported to a place where the line between the ordinary and the extraordinary dissolves, leaving them captivated by the beguiling beauty and profound mysteries of this vividly depicted world.
