For as long as Liora can remember, humans have taken advantage of Fae and magical beings, despite a fragile peace that offers that protection to those beneath it. Enslaved by human traders for years, Liora has endured relentless cruelty, her magic stifled by iron shackles and her hope slowly crushed. Survival became her only goal, her dreams of freedom buried beneath bruises and scars.
Everything changes when her caravan is ambushed by orcs, led by Zahala, the battle-hardened commander of the Hollow Wolf clan. Zahala never expected to find someone like Liora-frail, injured, but still burning with defiance-among the captives. From the moment their eyes meet, something within him stirs: a fierce need to protect her. But to Liora, freedom at the hands of anyone feels no better than life in chains. Trust is impossible-she's certain the kindness comes with a price.
Zahala wants to prove otherwise. He seeks peace between orcs, Fae, and humans, and vows to keep Liora safe-even if she doesn't want his protection. As winter deepens, their uneasy truce sparks a fragile bond. But trust is dangerous, and hearts hardened by pain are slow to heal. Together, they must decide if they'll fight for freedom alone-or stand together.

A Garden of Flowers and Bones [Lloyd Garmadon x Reader]
[LEGO NINJAGO FAE & FAERIES!AU] At first it doesn't seem like much of a good thing. But in time, it feels like stepping off the path into Fair Folk-infested territory and talking to a stranded Fae (who looks at her as if she's helpless prey) was a good idea. Because she made a friend...! Well, kind of. It's a bit complicated. Listen, he may be constantly attempting to trick her into being dragged off into the woods never to be seen again, but he IS good company. CONTENT WARNINGS: - Y/N has a middle name which she uses as a fake name because of the whole Fae-stealing-your-name-thing. Lloyd's discovery of her true name is an overarching plot point. - Suggestive Themes (no explicit content) - Ableism - Religious Content/Criticism/Discussion/Guilt - Period-Typical Sexism and Themes of Internalised Misogyny - Blood and Violence (TWs at the beginning of chapters) - Child Death & Miscarriage (not happening to the MC but as a consequence of the middle ages)

PLEASE REFRAIN FROM ADDING THIS TO SPICY READ LISTS I don't care but you WILL be disappointed. The first book contains no physical intimacy and the following books will, but it will be closed door because these characters are CHILDREN when we are introduced to them and will not be reasonable adults until book three. If I was also a teenager there could be some room for negotiation but I am an adult and I, therefore, expect adults to consume my media so this is the end of discussion. Author's note: I know I know, I put an Author's note in here already saying I was going to try to maintain one chapter a month. But unfortunately, the fascism is getting to me, and I (very unfortunately) am under govt. contract, so it is taking me a while to get through these, while editing plus proof reading, and doing literally everything else. Your understanding and patience does not go unnoticed. I appreciate you all taking the time to read my book. It is still going, even if there hasn't been updates in months. This party of four have been living in my head over a decade they have to come out. TLDR Fascism is kicking my ass. No, I'm not dead. No I didn't give up on the book. Please hang around I will get to finishing it, but it's taking me some extra time.

Blood Bound, Bone Deep
Feyra has always known that her magic comes at a cost. Every time she heals, she takes the wound into herself-burning it into her skin, into her bones, into the scar over her heart that never truly fades. But pain is a small price to pay to protect the people she loves. Especially Mila-her best friend, her constant, her heart-sister. At the Academy, students train to bond with wyverns, master ancient magic, and survive the politics of bloodlines and power. But when Mila's shapeshifting demon heritage spirals out of control during a training trial, Feyra is forced to push her power further than she ever has before-nearly losing her life to pull Mila back from the brink. Now recovery is slow, the pain is unrelenting... and everyone has questions. Including Zeraph-the new third-year leader with a reputation sharp enough to cut. Stoic, disciplined, and carved from controlled fire, he believes Feyra's sacrifice was reckless. She believes he doesn't understand what loyalty means. And Zero-her closest friend and constant defender-has no intention of letting Zeraph dictate anything. But Feyra's scars are changing. Mila's demon forms grow harder to control. And deep beneath the school, in the old wyvern tunnels, something ancient has begun to stir-responding to Feyra's mark... and to the bond between them. Some magic binds. Some magic burns. Some magic was never meant to exist. And the price of saving each other may be becoming the very thing everyone fears.
