In the heart of Faerie, where secrets are as old as the stars and power is a double-edged sword, Maeve-half-fae, half-human-finds herself at the center of a deadly game of betrayal and intrigue. When her mother, once a rightful heir to the throne, dies under suspicious circumstances, Maeve is thrust into a perilous quest for truth.

The tyrannical High King Rhylaiën, clinging to his corrupted rule, sends the lethal assassin Dianthe Coldbrooke to eliminate Maeve, believing her to be a threat to his reign. Dianthe, driven by her own thirst for vengeance, is convinced Maeve is plotting rebellion. However, when their fates collide, an unexpected alliance forms.

As Maeve and Dianthe uncover dark truths buried in Faerie's past, they discover that Dianthe's family, the rightful rulers, were ousted by Maeve's ancestors. With the throne's legacy at stake and dangerous forces closing in, Maeve and Dianthe must navigate a treacherous path of deception and power.

In a realm where every shadow harbors a secret and every alliance is a gamble, Maeve and Dianthe must confront their own demons and the dark forces that threaten their world. Can they uncover the truth before it's too late, or will the weight of their pasts doom them both?

Grim Echoes by ryanahunter
94 parts Complete Mature
Maeve's ability to touch others' souls can be heartbreaking and confusing, but when she connects with two murderers, it turns her world upside down. Are they still killers if they only kill monsters? What starts as a random attack on the street stopped by two strangers quickly escalates as Maeve discovers her attackers were demons. Thrusting her into their violent world, Maeve struggles to hold on to her humanity, making choices she never believed she would have to make. Disturbed but drawn to each of them. Will's bestial nature calls to her one moment and rejects her the next. While a powerful attachment to Ander's gentle soul comforts her, but every time they connect, she feels his darkness just below the surface. Will's entire life has been a war against monsters, alongside his best-friend Ander. Honor bound by duty, he is brutal, relentless, and uncompromising in his mission to protect the masses. He didn't understand how much his world would change after saving Maeve, or how she would shatter his convictions. Ander may have magical talents but in his mind, nothing will redeem him from the abomination he is. Bound by more than shed blood, Will, his adopted brother, and only friend. Together they seek and destroy aberrations that poison the world. Until Maeve touched his hand, there was nothing else but the mission. With her, Ander could see a different side of himself, a different life. This is a character driven story written from the 3 main characters POV's. It's a mature adult dark romance & contains dubious triggering situations that some might find offensive. If you want an instant, fearless heroine, Maeve won't be it. Her story is discovering who she is & what power love can bring versus kicking monsters asses. Power & money aren't the only things that make the world turn & those that wield the greatest power control destiny. If you're looking for heroes, Will & Ander are NOT it. If you're drawn to tortured villainous souls, you'll enjoy their saga.

[complete] "A human, a wulver, and a fairy walk into a witch's hut." It was like the start of a bad joke. Fleeing from her home in the States after the death of her only family member, Atrium McKenna comes to Gargunnock, Scotland to mourn the death of her uncle. She meets up with a group of merry men led by the charming Callum who takes a downtrodden Atrium under his wing. Their unlikely friendship forges the way into a world that until now, she only thought existed in fairy-tales. An apparition of a beautifully androgynous woman leaves her with more questions than answers on the legitimacy of her sanity and the security of her heart. While her uncle leaves behind secrets that make her ask one question: who was she? With a target on her head, Atrium struggles to protect herself and come to terms with the new world they have thrust her into. There's no turning back and dark magic is laying siege to those she cares about.
