To cross the forest is to court death. Everyone knows this.

Living under the iron rule of her bitter father, Aeva's world is a cruel, gray place. Her only light is her younger sister, whom she vows to protect at all costs. At the end of her patience, Aeva comes to a fork in the road-straight past the deadly forest ruled by the infamous Lich King-Aeva sees not a death sentence, but a chance. A chance to escape, to earn a future, and maybe, just maybe, to steal a little freedom.

But the forest is not empty.
And the Lich King is watching.

Felric is ancient and utterly alone-until a bold village girl distracts him with a tale too clever to ignore. What begins as a dangerous bargain soon becomes a series of stolen moments, sharp banter, and something neither of them expected: longing.

As the seasons turn, war games rage, and darker powers stir beneath the soil, Aeva's journey home becomes more treacherous than her journey out. When betrayal strikes from within her own walls, it is Felric who must defy death itself to save her. But saving her means changing her-forever.

House of the Fallen (Book 1 of the Shardbearers) by Beaneyandbooks
34 parts Complete Mature
BOOK 1 OF THE SHARDBEARERS SERIES | She thought she was human. They knew she was anything but. Now the truth might destroy them all. Elliora has always known how to survive-growing up with a drunk for a father, guarding a heart cracked by betrayal, and burying the aching need to be wanted. But survival means nothing when the Veil rips open and demons come hunting for her blood. Rescued-and then imprisoned-by four dangerously beautiful strangers, Elliora finds herself trapped in a house that shifts like a living thing, with magic she doesn't understand surging in her veins. The men who saved her aren't human. They're fallen angels. And they're convinced she's something rare. Something powerful. Something worth dying for. But Elliora doesn't trust easily. Especially not the cold, commanding leader with secrets behind his eyes. Or the storm-eyed healer who won't let himself feel. Or the wildfire-tempered protector with too much rage. Or the charming flirt who touches her like she's made of light. As Elliora struggles to control a magic that answers to no one-and to resist the pull of the four broken souls around her-an ancient enemy begins to haunt her dreams. He knows what she is. And he'll stop at nothing to claim her. Even if it means tearing the world apart to do it. Darkly romantic, emotionally charged, and wickedly addictive, House of the Fallen is a slow-burn fantasy romance where one girl must choose between the past that broke her and the future that could save-or end-everything.
In These Days of War by Troublesome_Wench
35 parts Ongoing Mature
The elven kingdom of Tírnéth, weakened by civil war, is unable to ward off the threat posed by the mortal men of Carransii. For the first time in recorded history, foreign feet scale the Aghadh Mountains and tread elven land in pursuit of the most coveted thing in the world: The magic of the Misty Bog. Lying to the north of Tírnéth and governed by the Seelie Queen, it is a domain even elves are forbidden from entering. Even so, Princess Eimhir and her younger sisters make the journey to its border at the behest of her father, King Lorcán, in a desperate bid to preserve his legacy as the enemy closes in from the south. He entrusts his daughters to the care of his enigmatic Warden of the North, who holds her lonely vigil in the Grey Tower of the Wall of Devin. But in these days of war, Eimhir refuses to be passive. She will not be a damsel in distress awaiting the cold kiss of her enemy's blade. With her mind honed by the cutthroat politics of the royal court, she wields it like a weapon, but can she maintain her ruthlessness through the burgeoning feelings she holds for her protector? The book cover was painted by me. :) Content warning: violence, gore, explicit sexual content, mentions and depictions of death, grief, emotional manipulation/abuse, suicidal ideation, and indoctrination.

26 parts Ongoing
Elara, a young girl born into a broken world, where the royal family holds absolute power and mages-those with the ability to manipulate the elements-are hunted to the death. After witnessing the brutal murder of her father at the hands of the royal family, Elara's mother hides her daughter's identity, pretending to be the mage in order to protect her. But when the royal family learns of a new mage bearing a powerful mark, they arrive at Elara's home, and her mother sacrifices herself to save her daughter. With her mother's death haunting her and the royal family's forces hot on her trail, Elara flees into the woods, unveiling the magic she's kept hidden for years. In the depths of the forest, Elara discovers a hidden group of mages-boys and girls, families-each with their own elemental power: fire, water, earth, air, blood, metal, and ice. For the first time in her life, Elara is not alone. But her refuge is fragile. As the royal family intensifies its search, Elara must decide whether to stay hidden in the shadows or rise up with these newfound allies to reclaim her life and bring justice to those who destroyed her family. With vengeance in her heart, Elara's journey becomes a fight for survival, and a rebellion against the oppressive rule that has outlawed her very existence.

When the Veil between realms was torn apart, the world of Elyndor fell into ruin. The immortal Queen of Ashen Glass rules from her floating court above the clouds, feeding on the magic of lesser beings-humans, vampires, and half-Fae alike. Below, the world rots under her shadow. Rhiannon Vale, a healer hiding among the remnants of humankind, has spent her life concealing a secret that could damn her-the shimmer of Fae blood beneath her skin. But when the Queen's soldiers raze her village and the power she's buried all her life awakens in the flames, Rhiannon is forced to flee into a haunted wilderness where even the trees remember death. In the depths of that forest, she encounters something ancient-a voice that should not exist, bound to her by blood and ruin. Its name is whispered in legends: Aelric Thorne, the fallen vampire fae prince, cursed and forgotten beneath the earth. Though they have not yet met, the bond between them begins to stir, waking old magic that even the Queen once feared. As Rhiannon struggles to survive the wasteland and the hunters closing in, she discovers her power is not a curse but a key-one that could unmake the Queen's dominion or doom what's left of the world. And somewhere in the shadows, Aelric begins to remember the girl who burns like light in his darkness.

Grim Echoes by ryanahunter
94 parts Complete Mature
Maeve's ability to touch others' souls can be heartbreaking and confusing, but when she connects with two murderers, it turns her world upside down. Are they still killers if they only kill monsters? What starts as a random attack on the street stopped by two strangers quickly escalates as Maeve discovers her attackers were demons. Thrusting her into their violent world, Maeve struggles to hold on to her humanity, making choices she never believed she would have to make. Disturbed but drawn to each of them. Will's bestial nature calls to her one moment and rejects her the next. While a powerful attachment to Ander's gentle soul comforts her, but every time they connect, she feels his darkness just below the surface. Will's entire life has been a war against monsters, alongside his best-friend Ander. Honor bound by duty, he is brutal, relentless, and uncompromising in his mission to protect the masses. He didn't understand how much his world would change after saving Maeve, or how she would shatter his convictions. Ander may have magical talents but in his mind, nothing will redeem him from the abomination he is. Bound by more than shed blood, Will, his adopted brother, and only friend. Together they seek and destroy aberrations that poison the world. Until Maeve touched his hand, there was nothing else but the mission. With her, Ander could see a different side of himself, a different life. This is a character driven story written from the 3 main characters POV's. It's a mature adult dark romance & contains dubious triggering situations that some might find offensive. If you want an instant, fearless heroine, Maeve won't be it. Her story is discovering who she is & what power love can bring versus kicking monsters asses. Power & money aren't the only things that make the world turn & those that wield the greatest power control destiny. If you're looking for heroes, Will & Ander are NOT it. If you're drawn to tortured villainous souls, you'll enjoy their saga.

Drawn together, bound by something beyond this life, they cannot explain why every glance feels like remembering. As darkness stirs again, old bloodlines awaken.
