about defiance // matthew fairchild {2}, de thevagabondexpress

{ snap, shatter, and howl pt. ii: being the sequel to mirror shards } Four months on from the Mandikhor attacks, Sydney Herondale is sure she's done. She's fallen in love (with Matthew Fairchild), she's starting to heal, both literally and metaphorically, from the wounds dealt to her in Romania during her travel year, she's got a flat in the City and with the mystery of her grandfather's identity solved, her research project is done and she can rest now. It's over. Or so she tells herself. You see, Sydney is magic. First that blinding rage when she goes into battle, then her strange ability to go ignored when she doesn't want people looking, and now, suddenly, she's starting to see magic, the ebb and flow and current of it like brushstrokes on Van Gogh's canvas. And if her grandfather's whispered, cryptic words are right, somehow all of these are meant to meld together to make...what? Well, she'd better find out, if she wants to make sure the magic is hers to control and hers alone. Not, of course, that anyone's making that easy.

The Lycan's Flame, de hazel_gliipps

Her love is a weapon. It's killed before. And this time, she's sworn it won't happen again. Everyone at Blackthorn University thinks Kara is just another human girl juggling midterms, frat parties, and overpriced lattes. No one suspects the truth: that she's a Phoenix shifter, hiding in plain sight in a world ruled by werewolves and lycans. Even her closest friends don't know the fire simmering beneath her skin. But Kara isn't just hiding from them, she's hiding from fate. From the one thing she dreads more than anything else: her mate. She's done letting her love be a death sentence. She won't survive another loss. The scars she bears run deeper than flesh. So when Ryker, the dangerously magnetic lycan General, realizes Kara is his fated mate, she does exactly what she swore she would. She pushes him away. Again. And again. And again. But lycans don't walk away from their mates. And Ryker? He's dominant, possessive, and utterly relentless. He's a storm she can't outrun, a flame that won't go out. And every heated glance, every stolen moment, threatens to shatter the walls she's spent years building. As secrets ignite and her past begins to unravel, Kara must face the truth: Can she let herself love again, knowing it could destroy them both? Or will her lies-and the deadly curse entwined with her love-be the very thing that dooms them forever?

The Coven's Source, de Tophat

It has been nine years since Lyra discovered Grigore; her Weaver and guardian of the living magic nestled in her body. Nine years since she doggedly followed him through hell and death, determined to not let him slip out of her grasp and shake free his denial. Nine years since he accepted her. Rumours are spreading that a Lord is hunting Sources; his lands plagued by famine and madness. As Lyra dreams of two women begging her to save them, she finds herself inexplicably pulled to the cursed lord and his haunted lands. Despite the dangers, Lyra and Grigore dive into the chaos, unaware that their abilities as a hunting pair and as lovers was going to be put to the test. Volume Two of the Dark Folktales. This is a horror, erotic romance, with monster-of-the-week vibes, such as Buffy, Supernatural, Witcher, Claymore, and Van Helsing. (I'm a massive fan of the monster hunting genre.) Back in 2014 I finished writing the original story, The Weaver's Source, and I am re-opening the world again as I feel I have a story worth telling. The Coven's Source is set nine years after the original ends, is a single story arc rather than many small ones. This will show the hunter I always envisioned Lyra to be but didn't have the opportunity to show. Author's note - Please be mindful of what you're saying when commenting. I'm happy with helpful criticism, spelling/grammar pointers, questions or simple chatter. However, a tirade of needless, unhelpful complaints and just outright rude commentary is not welcome. My stories are terrible first drafts, they're going to be riddled with issues, so just politely highlight if you feel there's a problem. I'll listen and likely take on board the criticism. And if you're not enjoying it, that's fine, just move on and thank you for giving it a shot.

Cursed, de rodriguez_sofia

"She is a weapon, a killer. Don't forget it. You can use a spear as a walking stick but that will not change its purpose." **************** PART ONE: In a world where fire is both a gift and a curse, Elara Thatcher struggles to escape from her friends, who really just wanted to kill her. When unplanned surprise changed their plans and forced two teenagers to become parents, everything shifted. Complications with the pregnancy and Elara's modified DNA make the pregnancy almost impossible to survive. PART TWO: When war sparks, Elara finds out she was the main cause of the war and hides away while they slowly tear the Earth apart. They were heavily outnumbered, with more people fighting against her than for her. PART THREE: As expected, one of her daughters inherited a sickness from inside her, she desperately searched for a cure. She demanded answers when she found out her daughter had to be bedridden for the rest of her life. There was only one answer: She gave her daughter a curse. Without knowing it, she had been carrying the curse her whole life. A new prophecy was shown to Elara through a vision. She was going to destroy the Earth one day. PART FOUR: Years later, her daughters were 6 years old. Elara's kids still talk to their dad, dead for a year. But a shocking truth about Jay's presence will force Elara to realize the impossible. She still hasn't been found yet but she knew it was sooner or later they would find her. She decided to put an end to everything, knowing that it would destroy the world if she didn't. Soon, she left her home and never came back. Elara Thatcher became the villain in her own story. It probably seems like a very boring book in the first few chapters but it gets better (I think) TW: Suicide Each "part" is like another book inside this one. -CURRENTLY BEING HEAVILY EDITED- THANK YOUUUU!!

The Witch's Call, de WhenYouPlayFire

In a quiet, isolated village nestled deep within the forest, 16-year-old Elara has lived a life shrouded in mystery. Her village, once full of laughter and hope, is now crumbling under an oppressive curse. Crops fail, livestock grow sick, and the land itself seems to wither away. The villagers whisper of an ancient witch, who disappeared years ago, as the cause of their suffering. Desperate to end the curse and restore her homeland, Elara decides to take a bold step: she flees her village in search of the missing witch, hoping to uncover the truth and save everything she holds dear. Her journey takes her through dark, enchanted forests, treacherous mountains, and forgotten ruins, where she encounters creatures both wondrous and terrifying. Along the way, Elara learns that the witch was not a figure of evil, but a guardian of powerful magic, one whose disappearance has set a chain of events in motion that only she can reverse. As Elara uncovers long-buried secrets, she begins to realize that her own connection to the witch may be deeper than she ever imagined. She must navigate betrayal, unearth her hidden powers, and ultimately confront the darkness threatening her world. Time is running out, and Elara must decide: Will she be the savior her village needs, or will she become part of the witch's forgotten legacy? A tale of magic, mystery, and self-discovery, *The Witch's Call* explores themes of courage, destiny, and the blurred line between good and evil.

Zero, de Ajaxze

Released! 12/12/24 ------------------------- A mysterious online blogger, who exclusively writes about the history and encounters of witchcraft, and claims to be a witch themself, is revealed to have a traumatic history. Maybe the blogs written by '0_Zero_0' aren't as crazy as people think they are? Who are they? What dark past still haunts them today? This story is the second entry into a multi-layered saga, and will be a bit longer than the first story. If you haven't already, be sure to check out the first entry; 'The Spirit Rings' if you like, as there will be some references to it that will more sense when you see it. For context, the first 2 parts of this story will be slightly different to parts 3 and 4, as you will be guided by Zero through his memories, furthermore, any speech in parts 1 and 2 will also be in a memory, not in the real world. (this will make sense as you read to the end) Blog posts are in italics to show that they are not part of his memory. From the 3rd part onwards, it will be formatted in a more standard way, as I am just experimenting with different methods of writing. //TL;DR for parts 1 and 2\\ Plain body text = 3rd person narration (normal reading style) Bold body text = 1st person (Zero reciting his memories to someone) Italics = Blog post (contextual pause to summarise/preview events) Any speech is happening as part of Zero's memory, as he is recalling the events Follow me to keep updated on all my stories, and be a part of the founders for my future novel which will take place in the same universe as all these stories on Wattpad :)

Morana, the Witch of Life, de High_Priestess_Elena

Morana knows she's different from other people in more ways than one. Firstly, she's sixty-seven years old but stopped ageing in her twenties. Weird things have also happened around her right after she's wished for it. But most importantly, no matter how she acts, people feel uncomfortable around her. Unfortunately, she has no way of finding out why all of this is since she was abandoned as a baby. A shocking event makes her cross paths with Alejo, a male witch who has issues trusting other witches. But when it comes to Morana, he feels comfortable and at ease, as well as attracted to her. They are, however, not mates, and as such, he knows that any romantic relationship between them is doomed to fail. To not risk losing her, he therefore does all he can to fight his own feelings. [Can be read without having read volume one and two] ---------- Mature rating due to: smut, violence (magical mainly, but some that's rather bloody), death, attempted rape (happens in chapter 42 and will be mentions of it afterwards, fairly none-descriptive, focus is on emotions, there will NOT be a trigger warning at the beginning of the specific chapter), abuse both physically and verbally - mention of past child abuse. There is no self-harm, however, there are certain aspects that might still be triggering in that regard. If you ever have any questions about the content and potential triggers, feel free to reach out to me. I'm more than happy to specify more if need be. ---------- This series will contain the following volumes: Volume 1 - Zoe, the witch of innocence (completed) Volume 2 - Crimson, the witch of night (completed) Volume 3 - Morana, the witch of life (completed) Volume 4 - Mirai, the witch of sight (completed) Volume 5 - Danae, the witch of light (ongoing) Volume 6 - Rheseis, the faerie of love

Hunted, de JaideHarley

**COMPLETED*** This is book 2 and can be read as a standalone but I recommend you read "Fated" first. Something caught my eye and when I looked up in the mirror I saw Rykan stepping inside, shutting the door and sliding the lock in place. My heart hammered in my chest as he approached me. He came right up behind me, setting his hands on my hips, never breaking our gaze through the mirror. "Kora," he murmured, stepping closer until my back brushed against his chest. His hand slid down to the end of my skirt and he flattened his palm against my bare leg, sliding his hand up my skirt. "I'm married," I blurted, swallowing hard and trying to ignore how much I liked the way it felt having his hands on me. "Hm," he grunted, narrowing his eyes as he continued his ascension up my outer thigh. His touch sent tingles all over my body, sending heat right between my legs. He gripped my leg and suddenly turned me, his hand now palming my ass as he pulled me against him, his teeth scraping against my neck as his other hand up to my neck. "Didn't seem to bother you when you had me down your throat last night," he said, wrapping his hand around my throat and lifting his head to give me one of those heart-stopping stares. "In fact, I believe you started that, angel." Koralie always felt that there was a part of herself missing. A part she hadn't yet discovered. Stuck in a toxic marriage, she's navigating her way out of it when she meets Rykan, a mysterious stranger she feels an undeniable draw towards although she isn't sure why. Things become even more intense when he starts showing up in her dreams, claiming he is a werewolf and they are mates. An even more unexpected turn of events comes when Kora starts looking into the supernatural world and finds it is not as foreign to her as it should be. Warning: This story contains very mature themes including brief mentions of abuse, mature language, mental health and sexual content.
