She was meant to chart the sea. Instead, she saved a boy.

Seraphine was never meant to cross into human waters - not during her navigation trials, and certainly not for a stranger with bleeding hands and haunted eyes.

But the tide is shifting, and the rules she was raised on are beginning to unravel. As secrets rise from the depths and magic threatens to drown everything she loves, Seraph will be forced to choose: between the world she was born to, and the one that makes her feel alive.

MYTHIC LEGENDS: FLAME AND EMPIRE by TeeRexTales

The war storms at the Frontier... The gods are broken. The empire is burning. And the end has already begun. A warrior with no past unleashes power no mortal should wield. A young ruler clings to a dying crown as his people lose faith. A chaos mage, feared and revered, walks with death in her shadow. Amongst their ranks-two Rifter siblings, wilders of ruin, benders of space and time. Feared. Watched. Leashed by the most powerful. But even under chains, love blooms... and loyalty begins to shift. When the empress falls into a cursed slumber-her unborn child the last ember of prophecy- the empire sends its strongest into the Abyss of Lost Quintessence: A place where even time forgets itself, where silence hungers, and where One of the Roots of the Umbrovyn Tree stands-ancient, cracked, and bleeding memory. Monstrosities roam, daring to strike in daylight. The veils whisper betrayal. Alliances splinter. Some stand frozen, unsure of their next move- fearing one wrong step may provoke the wrath of a dominion vast as a world and cruel as the gods who forged it. Old gods stir, craving redemption through ruin. The Royal House fractures beneath betrayal. A founding father, long patient, now bares their intent- to seize the throne by force, by cunning, by wagering all that is. Their House's malice toward the flawed Royal line can no longer be cloaked. Love will test loyalty. Legends will bleed. And in the dying light of Ether-Space- The Aurora must not fall... Or all realities will burn. 🔥

The Siren Song of Mareveila by Selenaannagg

Book Description: In a kingdom nestled by the sea, where beauty masks danger and politics are as shifting as the tides, a fragile peace is shattered when rumors of sirens prove true-and deadly. When the beloved prince is lured into the ocean by an enchanting song and never returns, the king launches a brutal hunt, slaughtering the creatures of the deep in his grief and rage. But vengeance never comes without consequence. Beneath the waves, the Sea King mourns two daughters lost to the blades of men. And in his fury, he prepares for war. As his court begins to fracture, one of his sons, Prince Virel, is tasked with a mission of seduction and revenge: lure the human king's only daughter, Princess Helena, and destroy her. What begins as a plan to break her becomes something far more dangerous. Because Helena is not the naive royal Virel expected-she is fierce, clever, and scarred by grief of her own. And when betrayal crashes over both their worlds, neither is prepared for the ruin... or the spark. Now, alliances are shifting. Kings are scheming. And amidst whispers of war and the shadows of drowned love, a new question emerges: Can peace be born between two enemies bound by blood and heartbreak? Or will love drown where vengeance reigns? For fans of dark fantasy, enemies-to-lovers, political intrigue, and star-crossed fates, this sweeping tale of sea and sorrow will pull you beneath the surface... and refuse to let go.

He watched her long before he ever touched her. Back when she lived next door - soft, curious, unaware - she thought his silence meant safety. She didn't know restraint could be more dangerous than desire. He was older. Controlled. A man built on rules he never broke. Until her. One moment shattered everything - a line crossed, a truth exposed - and then time pulled them apart, leaving questions, guilt, and an obsession that refused to die. Years pass. Lives change. But obsession does not age quietly. When fate brings them together again, the power has shifted. He is no longer just a man with secrets - he is a CEO feared and respected, a master of control. She is no longer the girl next door - she is his assistant, standing inches away from the past she never healed from. A secret marriage binds them - not with love, but with silence, tension, and unspoken rules. Every interaction becomes a psychological game. Every look carries history. Every touch feels like punishment... and craving. She tries to survive him with logic. Her heart whispers resistance. Her body remembers too much. This is not a story of comfort or easy redemption. It unfolds in phases - obsession, separation, longing, control - shifting between emotional intimacy, psychological warfare, and dangerous desire. Some chapters burn slow. Some chapters burn dark. Some don't burn at all - they cut. Because this is not just about wanting someone. It's about being claimed before you understand the cost. And when the past finally collides with the present, she must decide: Will she break free from the man who has shaped her in silence... Or surrender to the darkness that has always known her name? 🔞 18+ Only Dark Romance • Psychological Obsession • Morally Grey Slow Burn • Multiple Timelines • Forbidden Desire New chapter - Sunday and Wednesday ( per week )

Fae of Death by TyttiH

[Warning: This is pretty awful lol] Sera thought "aging out" of foster care was her biggest threat. She didn't expect to wake up in a violet sky, staring into the eyes of a man who breathes fire. As the Riftwalker, Sera's magic is a beacon that brings the Fae world to its knees. But she doesn't want to be a queen or a savior-she just wants to survive the courts that see her as a vessel rather than a person. From the quiet of the human realm to the catastrophic fractures of the Eternal Flame, this is the story of a girl who was never meant to be human, and the magic that finally broke her.

But Seraphina is different from other princesses. She does not desire grand balls or court politics. Her heart belongs to the quiet simplicity of the world outside the palace. Each morning, before the castle awakens, she rides her noble steed across the fields, far from prying eyes. There is, however, one place forbidden to all-a dark and silent river known as the Forbidden River. Whispers speak of those who crossed its waters and vanished without trace. No one dares go near. Yet, Seraphina does not believe in darkness... only in secrets waiting to be unveiled. A slow-burning love supernatural fantasy about hidden powers, forbidden paths, and a princess who dares to challenge the legends of her world.
