dragons dystopian fantasy romance shortstory

In a society where beauty is forbidden and ugliness is engineered by law, seventeen-year-old Mira has spent her life hiding a dangerous truth-she was born naturally beautiful. Labeled a flaw in the system, she's learned to survive in the shadows of a world built on surveillance, fear, and brutal conformity.

Eighteen-year-old Soren, the son of the regime's cold and powerful leader, is about to take his place beside her. Trained to uphold the system but haunted by doubt, he meets Mira and sees more than just a threat-he sees a mirror to everything he's never dared to question.

When Mira is unexpectedly selected for a transformation ceremony that promises power but hides darker truths, their paths collide. And in a world where one wrong move means death, both must decide what they're willing to risk-for freedom, for truth, and for each other.All Rights Reserved

The villain who endured by BhumikaChoudary9

Note: This story was written with the assistance of AI tools for language support and editing. When a modern boy dies and wakes up in the body of Aeren Vale-a bastard child destined to become the infamous villain of a fantasy kingdom-he finds himself hated, punished, and cast aside for a crime he didn't commit. But unlike the original Aeren, he chooses silence and endurance over revenge. As he grows up in the shadow of power, his quiet brilliance catches the attention of the kingdom's crown prince, Kael. What begins as fragile curiosity turns into a dangerous bond that challenges fate itself. In a world built on prophecy and betrayal, can love rewrite a story already written in blood? A slow-burn, emotional fantasy about second chances, defying fate, and the boy who refused to become the villain the world expected.

Damsel Knight by samaustinwriter

Sometimes the best knight is a damsel. In a world where women are seen as weak, defenceless creatures for men to protect and own, one orphan girl wants to be different. She dreams of being a knight. Slaying dragons, taking down armies with her father's sword. Only her foster parents don't agree with her views. On the night of her betrothal to a man over twice her age, the King's soldiers come to their tiny village, and in the chaotic aftermath she's left with a choice. Go back to life she knows and marry a man she despises. Or journey onward and risk death to earn the knighthood she dreams of. The road forward isn't a safe one for a girl travelling with only her foster brother as company. Magic lurks in dark places. Vengeance burrows deep in many equally dark hearts. And all around the circle armies are gathering to defend the Kingdom against a threat not seen for a thousand years. This is the first part of the 140 thousand word fantasy adventure.

The Art of Pretending by maria-annie

short summary - Mira is a quiet, reserved girl who prefers to stay unnoticed, living in the comfort of her sketchbook and solitude. Her world changes when Rayan, a confident and popular senior, begins noticing her. What starts as playful teasing and subtle provocations slowly draws Mira out of her invisible bubble. Despite pretending to be enemies, the two share stolen glances, teasing remarks, and moments of unintended closeness that challenge Mira's carefully guarded world. As the story progresses, their tension deepens into a quiet, unspoken connection. Mira struggles with her growing feelings, while Rayan's attention and subtle care help her realise that being truly seen isn't something to fear. Through shared moments, silent understandings, and gentle honesty, Mira learns to embrace her own presence, and the two find a comfortable balance between teasing, tension, and mutual respect.

𝐒𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐞 by cisnegel

🌙 Seventeen-year-old Luan Dervishi has always known one truth: if the world doesn't kill you, the people in it will. Abandoned, hunted, and betrayed by the only family he ever had, Luan didn't fall off that cliff, he jumped. Death was the plan. But fate doesn't care about plans. Instead of silence and oblivion, Luan awakens in a world that shouldn't know his name, yet somehow, it does. Dragged through a portal by something ancient and watching, he lands in a realm where cities breathe secrets, maps rewrite themselves, and power answers to him like an echo long buried. A power that isn't his, yet fits him too well. A power the rulers, outcasts, and monsters of this world would do anything to claim. He didn't ask for a second chance. He didn't want one. Now, bound to a magic that pulses with memory and intent, Luan is being pulled deeper into a story written long before his birth, one that wants him to play hero, saviour, maybe even king. But Luan isn't here to be anyone's symbol. As cities fall and truths rot from the inside out, Luan walks a road twisted by loyalty, vengeance, and a past even he can't fully recall. Because in this world of gods, ghosts, and fractured fate, not everything that bleeds is alive... ...and not everything that lives deserves to. 🌑 "Is this the part where I'm supposed to kneel?" "You were never meant to kneel." "Good. Because I didn't come to worship your gods. I came to bury them." ---------------------------- Book [1-???] (BEING REWRITTEN!!)

Outsiders by khalalain

Sun City is beautiful in the way things are when no one looks too closely. Once a year, the festival floods the streets with color, music, and masks. The rest of the time, life drifts quietly. People grow old here. No one leaves. Leaving isn't an option. Lately, though, people have been talking. Talk of the Outsiders is everywhere now. Golden-eyed, otherworldly beings, half rumor, half nightmare. They're said to lurk beyond the city walls, bending reality in ways people can't understand. SunTear soldiers insist they're dangerous and people believe them. But Silky doesn't know what's true. She's never seen an Outsider. But the stories keep changing, and none of them feel right. When a sudden discovery puts the most precious person in Silky's life in danger, everything snaps into focus. With time running out, Silky steals a SunTear uniform and steps into the heart of the city's protective force. She must blend in, survive, and uncover the truth before she is discovered. And every answer Silky uncovers hints at a deeper truth, the Outsiders may not be the real threat at all. The real danger has been inside the city all along, watching and waiting, more cunning than anyone realizes. Silky's only goal now is to uncover the truth and save the person she loves before it's too late.

How to Make a Sinner Sleep by lukiyo_224

Kaden Chauvet awakes in the same cold room that he remembers, seeing the reflection of pale viridescent eyes that scream curses at his mind. This is a beginning; a second chance that he would rather forsake than claim. Time has reversed, and he is back to play the role of an obedient fool-only, he no longer has any intentions of wagging his tail and committing the heinous crimes that he once did. He will save everyone; and then face his judgement. The judgement that comes in the raven-scaled hands of the heroic, slightly quiet, and son of the Dragon bloodline, Noah Bellamy. And yet the man claims, "I want to save you, fool." And another tearfully cries, "Please don't die. Not again, never again." And another's graceful voice pleads, "I don't wish to witness your demise again." Kaden stares, utterly confused. "What?" --- One sentence summary: In which a terrible sinner seeks redemption and amusement by relentlessly teasing an irritated dragon.

The fourteenth shift by alexwhit134

Every year on February 8th, every fourteen-year-old is taken. No one knows where they go until it's their time. The place is hidden, the training brutal, the purpose clear: prepare them for the wars of a world kept in shadow. It's not punishment. It's not exactly a rescue either. It's something in between - a shift from innocence into something far more dangerous. When Jaquetta Virellith is taken, she stands out from the start. With violet hair and powers born from nightmare, she sees things no one else can - visions of death, destruction, and suffering that leave her body frozen and her soul shaken. Her fears are as unique and frightening as her gift: a terror of losing control, of tight spaces, of food, of sickness. She keeps them hidden behind a stillness that unsettles even the instructors. By her side is Liri Thalen, fierce, funny, and full of fire, whose bright pink braids and rapid-flash movement power make her impossible to miss - or ignore. But even Liri has fears she won't admit aloud: the dark, being left behind, and not being enough when it matters. Kael Drennor, with dusk-blue hair and shields made of light, is built to protect - and yet he's crumbling inside. Haunted by a fear of deep water and the secrets he keeps buried, he doesn't expect to feel drawn to Jaquetta. But something in her silence echoes his own. And Rowen Stride, silver-haired and sharp-tongued, has powers rooted in sound and humor hiding something quieter - a fear of failure, of being forgotten, of being truly known. Liri gets under his skin in ways no one else can. Together, they will be tested. Their fears will be used against them. And some of them won't come out the same. But for him... he couldn't resist her beautiful sapphire blue eyes.
