action adventure diamond firstperson gem jewel journey keeper necklace package poison princess realms secret tribe war

Two little glittering stones, one onyx and one diamond--if they touch each other, creatures of pure energy will descend shrieking from the heavens to avenge an ancient wrong. And those are only two of the jewels that the Gemkeepers must guard, or else risk losing peace throughout the Four Realms. 

Anhia doesn't know any of that when she embarks on a journey to become a Gemkeeper herself. She also is not aware of the political chaos in which she is about to become hopelessly entangled. She'll have to mediate between enemy Gem Tribes or risk getting killed herself. Did I mention she also has to make sure the princess remains safe?

Amethyst by NomadicStoryteller

19-year-old Shelby Collins has always thought her life was normal: school with her best friend Ben, reading books about magic, fantasy, and faraway lands. She never imagined for a moment that anything in those stories could happen to her. Yet everything changes when she and Ben return to her home to find her parents gone and the house ransacked. Ben reveals that Shelby is the next Gemstone Protector, destined to stop the next Ruby War. As they travel to Liliya, a world Shelby was born in and never knew existed, she doubts herself-thinking there's no way she could be the one this new world needs. With the enemy growing stronger and Shelby's self-doubt present within her, will she be able to rise to the challenge, or will her journey consume her like a tidal wave, pushing her down the path of defeat?

Unforgiven Dreams ✔️ by CrayyZedd

[COMPLETED : 5|09|2016 and slowly editing ] He snapped his fingers and a red flame flourished into existence. "How did you-" "I'm a professional." He smirked, clearly enjoying this. If I got a penny for everytime I rolled my eyes at him, I would probably be a billionaire. In a limousine. With a hot wife. And a hotter girl to cheat on her with. And that too I'm straight. He flexed his palms and the flame disappeared. "With practice, even you can control your Blue Matter." I didn't say anything, just nodded. "This Blue Matter is stronger than Red Matter. It can destroy beings. Be careful with it." "Uh, so I am a DreamMaire?" "No, Sophie, you're the Dream Maker." _______________________ Sophie Hazelwood, sixteen, just makes it in the world with her confident aura and weird humour.

Dear Diary by the_mariest_marie

Dear Diary, I can't write to you as often anymore. There's a man here, he tells us we must be leaving our home. I don't want to go, but I don't have a choice. I believe this man. He tells us we are in grave danger. He won't tell us why, but I believe following him blindly is better than any future Hunter and I have here. We are not to talk any belongings with us, so I mustn't write to you often; only when Hunter and Xavier sleep. Our moments will be brief, but entirely worth it. We're traveling by foot across the land to the territory of our enemies. I'm frightened and I'm worried, but I know this will be good for us. I'd rather face the unknown than face the same day Hunter and I have lived ever since we arrived here. Do wish us luck, and don't fret over me. I will keep you in my heart and thoughts and I'll dance with you in my dreams. I love you, Diary. One day, we will be together. We're closer now than we ever were. Please be patient. Forever yours, Anabella ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Cover made by bree (theonlyninjasmurf) <3 Can never thank you enough! It's so beautiful!

The Prophecy by lspearson

Ariella's biggest desire in life has always been such a simple one. She wants to be 'normal.' Unfortunately, that one simple wish has never been within her grasp. Coming from a long line of witches is bad enough, but she's even more different than the rest of her family. The fact that no one will give her any answers to why she's so different doesn't help matters. Her entire existence is shrouded in secrets that everyone around her refuses to reveal. After a family tragedy, she moves to a new town, and she gets her first chance to at least pretend to be 'normal.' For the first time, she's allowed to leave the house and go to an actual school. She makes friends, and she develops her first crush, that's quickly followed by her second. She's finally living the normal teenage life she'd dreamed of, but it doesn't last. Everything she believed about herself and the world around her is changed in an instant. Family secrets come to light one after another, turning her entire world upside down in the process. She quickly realizes that sometimes ignorance really is bliss, and maybe she didn't really want to know the answers to the questions she'd always asked, especially when one of these truths causes people close to her to turn their backs on her without hesitation. Before she can even recover from the shock, she's thrust into a war that she hadn't even known existed. Loyalties will be tested. She'll have to choose sides between all of the people she's come to care about. Will she stand with her family, her new friends, or the two boys who both hold a piece of her heart? One thing is for sure. She'll have to let go of her dream of 'normal.'
