In the forsaken land of Barovia, where shadows stretch long and hope is but a fleeting dream, Lucy must confront her greatest challenge yet. Recently freed from the Ice Queen's curse, Lucy now faces the darkness that has ensnared her beloved friend Paultin, transformed into a dark lord under the malevolent rule of Strahd von Zarovich.

Determined to rescue Paultin and bring an end to Strahd' s reign of terror, Lucy leads her friends-Anthony, Lola, and Luna-through Barovia' s treacherous forests, haunted villages, and crumbling castles. Anthony, with his unwavering courage and the warm light of the Sunstone, supports her every step, their growing bond a beacon of hope. Lola and Luna, fierce and determined, fight to protect their friends and unravel the mysteries of this cursed land.

But Paultin, once their trusted companion, has become a formidable adversary. Bound to Strahd' s will, he wields dark powers and commands legions of the undead. Lucy must confront the shadows not only around her but also within her heart as she battles to reach the remnants of Paultin's true self and break Strahd' s hold on him.

As the group navigates Barovia' s treacherous terrain, they face horrors beyond imagination, their resolve tested like never before. Lucy's courage and determination will be the key to their success, but the path is fraught with danger, and the price of failure is unimaginable.

In a land where the line between ally and enemy blurs, Lucy must find the strength to confront the darkness, save her friend, and lift the curse that plagues Barovia. Will she succeed, or will the shadows consume them all? The fate of their world rests on a knife's edge in this epic tale of bravery, friendship, and the struggle against an unending night.

She is a monster, a nightmare, a killer, who dreams of an ancient battlefield and a different, brutal world where stars fall and dark blood stains the earth. Kye Merran is an Ember, one who wields fire magic. When a childhood friend shows up at his house with a strange girl who is bleeding black blood, he knows that he's getting into something he definitely shouldn't. Especially when the Dark King of Rurik, who may have much more to him than it seems, is looking to conquer another kingdom or two, preferably with a powerful, dark queen at his side. But Kye can't seem to stay away from the mysterious girl with the blood of Darkness. And Val can't stay away from Kye either, no matter how much she claims that she hates him. As Val, Kye, and their friends race to stop the Dark King and his approaching army, what they don't realize is that they are playing a part in an ancient, deadly game, a game between the light and the dark, one years in the making. But it is a game which neither of them can win, for their fates have already been determined by the desperate Gods, written in blood among the stars.

Azrael, the Angel of Death, has found a way to avenge his brother and save his people: to do so, he must betray the beautiful and dangerous creature that has stolen his heart. When the bite of a Lycan heralds his coming mortality, Azrael must make bold decisions: decisions with heavy consequences. With his people counting on him for salvation, no path seems like a good one. Until he meets Her, and his path becomes clear. Then, she steals his heart, and he can no longer stand to pay the price of peace. Saskia, the Daughter of Darkness, is determined to take her fate into her own hands: she must overcome her fear of losing herself to the dark secrets of her past... Without losing her heart in the process. Saskia is a soul-stealer: her dark touch kills everything around her. And now, that power is threatening to take over, destroying the fragile self she has created without her memories to guide her. She can't know who to trust, and who means her harm behind false smiles. But when a rakish, red-eyed Angel touches her skin-- and survives-- everything changes, and she must resist the passion he ignites in her. But it turns out, he's not the only one: someone else can touch her too, someone that claims her as his Mate. Will she choose vengeance, with the wicked Angel of Death-- whose touch alters her down to her soul, and whose protective embrace makes her heart race-- or will she give up her hated power to be with her smouldering Fated Mate, who secrets his passion beneath an icy exterior? ~*~*~ Updates every FRIDAY @ 17:00 MDT

[PREVIEW ONLY] WATTYS WINNER 2023 | Sixteen-year-old Felix Carver carries the ghosts of magicians in his blood. He can communicate with them and use the magical abilities they wielded against monsters when they were alive. His newfound power would be pretty cool, if the ghosts in question weren't his family and the man who killed them. Death doesn't stop Felix's siblings from finding new ways to annoy him from beyond the grave, nor his parents from doing their best to protect him from the dangerous side of his new life. Felix learns that his family belonged to an organization of magicians called the Bright Guardians, while their killer was a part of the Guardian Uprising that tried to overthrow the organization eight years earlier. The Bright Guardians take Felix in, hoping they can train him to fight monsters and control the ghosts living inside of him. Felix barely understands the magical world his family kept secret from him, but he does make friends with other odd cases at the Bright Academy. Troublemaker Arisa Tamura is struggling to control her ability to animate objects while under the influence of cursed bracelets, while the smart but reserved Mason Briggs is a witch who was transformed into a demon as a last resort to save his life. Together, the three of them realize that Uprising spies are still hiding among the Guardians. They have no idea who they can trust, but they do know who they can't: a Guardian named Ernest Abernathy, who stole a powerful wand from Mason's parents before killing them. Felix, Mason, and Arisa must construct a plan to steal back the wand without any help. If their plan fails, Ernest will turn the Guardians against them and have them locked up, or executed. If they succeed, they'll have one more weapon in the fight against the Uprising's army. Either way, the approaching war is inevitable. Be warned this book contains death, violence, and an above average amount of spiders.

#38 in Fantasy "Go." he commanded. "I can't bear the sight of you." The wind blew my hair out behind me. "I hate you so much. I never want to see you again. I hope that you die in this upcoming battle." I said darkly. I started to move my wings as I prepared to leave. "Good bye, Vlad. Forever. You have lost me. But worst is that I have lost you. The Vlad that stands before me is the one that I hate. The Vlad that I loved is long dead and I finally accept it now. Go and kneel before Satan. Go and embrace hatred. Go and be a demon, a traitor. I hope that you're happy with what you have become. I hope that you're happy that you have pushed everyone who loved you out of your life. Congratulations - everyone hates you. You must feel so proud. Your life is a lie, everything you do is a lie - trust me, I would know." I snarled. ←→ Mia is an Angel who was in love with Vlad, the Demon of Hatred. Consequences led them apart from each other and now they're enemies. As the battle between Angels and Demons looms on the horizon, will Mia and Vlad be able to hurt each other?
