A war is being held in the land of Acadia and the queen of the kingdom is in utter chaos. Not known to most, she is not the rightful heir. When her parents were assassinated her older brother bailed, being too young to rule on his own but to stubborn to take council. He left angrily telling the officials that their kingdom would fall. That was seven years ago. With the help of the officials Achlys has held her rule. But now the kingdom needs a leader of strength and military abilities and she doesn't cut it. With no ideas left she's forced to scour the lands for an older brother she resents, and to seek out the conceited ruler her kingdom needs. 

"He was stunningly handsome and looked extremely strong for what little armor he wore. An agile man with great strength and a sharpness that put me on edge. For he knew who I was before I had even uttered a word and his cunning smile told me so."

A Court of Wings and Fate by LeeraIvy

Some say that everyone's fate is already determined. If that's the case, Estelle Marzena is greatly disappointed with hers. Her greatest dream is to participate in the Illyrian Blood Rite and become a Carynthian warrior, like so many in her family. She has been training for the Rite her entire life, and yet, she continues to be told that she isn't ready. Estelle must find a way to prove her skills to her mentors so that she can prove her skills to the world, and she might have unwittingly stumbled across a way to do that. Being the bastard son of the High Lord of Dawn isn't something Mikael Anik takes lightly. Despite his parents' love and acceptance, Mikael continued to feel the pressure and unease of his people. His birth parents never married and he is a Peregryn halfbreed, the likes of which had never become a High Lord before. Mikael is devoted to proving himself to both his fathers and his people, but can he do that and deal with a surprisingly irritating Shadowsinger at the same time?

Lilith. by CheerleadingLifeX

I, Alexander Stone, reject you..." he trailed off, he doesn't even know my name. " as my mate, my soul and the luna of this pack" as soon as those words were said I felt an excruciating pain in my whole entire body. It felt like someone was setting my body a light, whilst shredding my skin off my body and taking my limbs a part one by one. The pain however was something that I could deal with and he did not expect that because his smirk faltered when my eyes started glowing. I could feel my wolf howling in pain and in anger and she was beginning to surface even more. " Why" I managed to growl out, my voice was still my own which meant that I still had some control of the situation. " You're asking why? Just a year ago you was a feeble human, you're too weak for this. I don't want a weak mate, I need a strong mate, someone that can lead a pack not someone who doesn't even know what a pack is" His words were like daggers to my heart but the disrespect hurt me the most. He shouldn't disrespect me like that, he doesn't even know who I am. " Pathetic, scatter to your little freak family and stop polluting this area" I snapped me eyes away from my so called mate to the source of the voice. It was no other Emma MqQuay, the queen bee of the school and my mates toy. By the time she said those words I was very close to my wolf taking control and partially for what I did next was due to her.

The Jack of Souls (Multi-award winner!) by StephenMerlino

************************************************************************************** An outcast rogue must break a curse put on his fate, or die on his nineteenth birthday. To survive, he'll need the sword of a maiden, the aid of an immortal, and the power of forbidden magic that could cost him the only girl he ever loved. ************************************************************************************ *** THE JACK OF SOULS won a Silver IPPY this year! *** THE JACK OF SOULS won 1st place in the PNWA Competition in Fantasy! * *** THE JACK OF SOULS won 1st place in the Southwest Writers competition! * *** A "Featured Book" on Wattpad! * *** Now a "Staff Pick" on Kickstarter! * *** Available on Amazon in paper, hardback, and ebook ! * *** My contract with Kindle Select won't allow me to post more than 3 chapters here, but... *** Sign up for my newsletter on stephenmerlino.com for alerts when it's free on Amazon! * MY INSPIRATION I wrote this out of pure love of trickster rogues; I love the wit over brawn motif -- Odysseus over Achilles, Raven over Eagle -- so I like to play with it in my stories. In JOS I set the rogue and con-artist Harric against a foil of warriors in a land threatened by magic and civil war. Whenever possible I turn familiar tropes on their heads: instead of a handsome young Lancelot, I cast a broken-down ex-champion addicted to pain-killing herbs; instead of a dashing Squire Brian, the old knight reluctantly takes an ambitious young woman as squire. Similarly, I re-imagine the standard medieval milieu by infusing aspects of two of my favorite historical periods, Elizabethan England, and The American Frontier. Both eras boast a kind of nationalistic arrogance that borders on hubris, and a magnificent spirit of resourcefulness and re-invention that is fun to play with. SERIES The Jack of Souls is first in a series. I am posting parts of the sequel here now (The Knave of Souls), to help me refine the story.

Queen of the Beasts✅ by b00klover09

👑1 in Queen Series👑 (Warning: Dark themes & sexual assault) I will have you...all of you, Esmerleda," he said as his eyes raked over my body. I tried to get away. His other arm wrapped around my waist, pulling me closer. "No you wont!" I spat angrily at him, my body gradually welcoming in his warmth. I hate him. "I will," he claimed, his smile making the scar on his face look even more fierce. "I will have your body, heart, soul. Everything," he growled, as I watched his eyes zero in on my lips. "Don't you dare!" I panicked. I shoved with all my might at his chest. He let me go quickly, making me almost fall into the table. "Don't you ever touch me again!" He chuckled as he grabbed my glass of wine. "Till our wedding night." ******* Esmerelda is devastated when the Lycan kingdom demolishes her own.
