Be you big or be you small - you know the tales and stories all.
But do you know the skin so true, on which some songs are written, too?
Of fear and terror, blood and pain - a child served up, the dark's domain.
Now step inside this world so grim, is it as you imagined it within?
Save the children, find the keys, and break the curse with unity's pleas.
Are you as one, united and bold, or will your corpse in the river grow cold?
Thirteen moons, blood-red, align - the weight of heroes now is thine.
____________________________________
Every child knows fairy tales - but few realize that fairy tales are not meant for children.
They reflect our darkest sides. A "happily ever after" is rare, and if it does happen, it comes at great cost.
Robin knows this better than anyone. She lives in a world where fairy tales are born - and where the truth behind the "beautiful stories" lies hidden.
The tales of princesses finding their princes, magic turning pumpkins into carriages, and evil witches getting their just deserts are not what they seem. Robin experiences the unvarnished reality behind the stories we only know from books.
Being a hero is easier said than done. Because when you've lost everything, why should you bother saving the world?
This story is based on the original fairy tales of the Brothers Grimm - with a dash of the author's own imagination.
But be warned: This book is definitely not for the faint of heart. If you're under 18 or are easily disgusted or frightened, this may not be the right read for you. ♥
For everyone else who dares to stay: Prepare yourselves for a dark adventure born from a homebrew D&D campaign, now waiting to spark your curiosity!

Once Upon a Time: EDITING
What if Cinderella were a mechanic? What if Snow-White were ugly? What if Rapunzel ran away on her own and became a magician? What if The Little Mermaid were originally human? This book contains a collection of twisted fairytales. So twisted are they that they almost reverse the original telling. No more waiting for Prince Charming! No sir, these princesses take their fates into their sensible and capable hands. Enjoy! ~ Nylara Note: The plot ideas are mine but some of the fairytales are loosely based on ones I've read but have not been entirely satisfied by or just wanted to revisit. Mechanica is based on the book "Mechanica", Blanche on "Mirror Mirror" the movie, Rebbecca is mine, Sapphire is based on the Ingo Series by Helen Dunmore and Freya is loosely based on "The Woodcutter's Daughter" and "East of Sun, West of Moon". Hope you enjoy!!! Cover by: @Paintfairy Previous Cover by: @mahana258 DISCLAIMER: I wrote this a long time ago so I cannot vouch for the quality of writing though I would venture to say it is much better than average Wattpad content. I am currently working on rewriting the stories so that they are better quality. This was previously posted under a different profile but because it slightly older writing, I've decided to not link it with my main account. *sigh* There goes my 1.53K reads and 1K votes :(Complete

Away with the Fairies
☆ONC 2021 Honourable Mention and Shortlister☆ ☆One of Round Two Top Five Winners☆ ☆Multiple times featured☆ ☆☆☆ ☆This is a story about H. Ch. Andersen, about how he became a writer and why most of his stories are so sad and melancholic. Also, about why he never found real love... Yes, that's what I read about him (among other things)-- he kept falling in love with unatteinable women. My story portrays Hans Christian Andersen as a young, fourteen-years-old boy. It's set in Odense, Denmark, in the late summer of 1818-- soon after Hans' mother, a poor washerwoman, remarried (two years after his father's death) and shortly before he was sent to a school for poor children where he had to support himself. Where he became, to be able to afford his schooling, first a weaver's, then a tailor's apprentice, a singer, an actor and finally, once his excellent soprano voice changed, a writer. Hans and Louise, his (fictional) step-sister, seek refuge from a summer storm in an old shed. There, they meet Rosalind, a lost Flower Fairy. When they decide to help her find the Butterfly Fairy boy she loves and intends to marry, she takes them into a fantastical world of Terra Sonalis, her home. A land of dreams populated by fairies, goblins, elves, mermaids, talking animals... All those mysterious creatures that fuelled Andersen's imagination for the rest of his life. ☆☆☆Complete

(Drarry) Faking My Own Death
Draco had dealt with enough death to make peace with his own. Getting a handle on his emo angst, he assumed his life would end after Dumbledore's murder. He didn't expect to keep living. He didn't expect to find something, someone left living for. He didn't expect to reach out to Harry Potter for help. Even more so, Draco didn't expect to fall in love with him in doing so. This is a slow-burn romance and redemption Drarry fic written by a touch-starved queer person with a newly rekindled love for Paramore and MCR. Enemies-to-lovers always hits different when 'Playing God' is in the soundtrack! Get ready for Draco 'overthinking is my therapy' Malfoy, Harry 'not settling for less' Potter, nonbinary Hermione, and supportive best friend Ron, with appearances of 'awkward big brother' Bill and other notable Weasleys. Explicit consent and content warnings are important to me. This fic is mostly a safe space, with warnings added to relevant chapters (there's no SA/abuse in general). Yet, if anxious/angsty overthinking isn't your thing, maybe just skip this entire fic. (This book contains sexual content and strong language, so mature audiences only.) Chapters 1-45 have been edited in February 2022 for more consistent paragraph etiquette. All later chapters have this editing done before posting. Bonus chapters still yet to be edited.Complete

People of different species aren't allowed to mix so when word gets out about two people of different species dating, they become incognito and hide their relationship. But as the saying goes, what's done in the dark comes to the light. "Are you afraid of me Angel?" He asked, as he stalked closer to me. I casually moved away. "No." I said, shaking my head. I casually looked around for an exit. "Then why you are moving away from me?" He asked. "Cause you too damn close to me." I said. I was sure he could hear the fear in my voice. He chuckled. "I can get closer." He said. Using his super speed, he got in my face, pinning me to the wall. I looked up in his eyes. I never felt so hot in my life. "Angel I know your afraid of me. What I could to you...." He said. His ice cold, minty breath hitting my face. I smirked. "If you think I'm afraid of you, your sadly mistaken." I said, tryna keep my cool. He looked down. "So I don't make you feel any type of way?" He asked, curiously. "Nope." I said. Without warning, he put his hand down my skirt and to my pearl. He rubbed it, causing me to moan out loud. He chuckled before putting on a devilish grin. "I thought so." He whispered in my ear. He rubbed faster. I moaned louder. I felt like I was in Heaven. 18+ PEOPLE!!! There is sexual content in parts of this book.Complete
