Curse AU
______________________________________
In 1668, in the cursed colonial town of Greyhaven, two girls, Amaris (Amber) and Tarinne (Tara), who fall in love in secret, their bond is a dangerous act in a world ruled by rigid religion and fear. When a sudden plague descends, causing crops to rot, animals to die, and villagers to turn on each other in madness. The town turns to blame. They call it divine punishment for hidden sin.
Amaris, born into a bloodline rumored to be cursed, becomes the perfect scapegoat. But what the villagers call a curse is really a natural plague/fungi, bacteria, and fear, mistaken for witchcraft. When Tarinne dies and Amaris is cast out, something unnatural takes hold. Amaris stops aging, left frozen in her teen body while the world moves on without her. Tarinne is reincarnated again and again, living a new life in every generation, never remembering the love they once shared.
Now it's 2022. Amber still looks seventeen, still wanders from town to town, still waits. She's enrolled in high school once again, hiding in plain sight. And Tara? She's just another teenager in a sleepy town built near the ruins of old Greyhaven. Until a history lesson on colonial witch trials stirs something deep inside her. Then she overhears Amber, alone, muttering about curses, plague, and a name that shouldn't mean anything to her: Tarinne.
Tara doesn't remember. But Amber never forgot.
As strange coincidences begin to mount, Tara starts to dig deeper into the curse, the plague, and the girl who stares at her like she's centuries lost. This time, the truth might surface. And with it, a way to finally end the curse.

**Coming to KU in January 2026** Sometimes fate brings you exactly what you need before you even realize it. *** Brigid Kelly has lost everything and no amount of spells or wishes stopped it. After her Gran fell ill and passed away, Brigid wasn't able to keep her grandmother's metaphysical shop going. With everything crashing down around her, Brigid buys a one-way ticket to the land of her ancestors, hoping to find solace in the old cabin where her Gran grew up. Ireland is everything she was always told it was and then some. As she sorts out the slowly declining house in the woods, she's thrust into the path of handsome Torin Boyle by circumstance. The walls she's built up around her heart are slowly chipped away as Torin reveals pieces of himself as well, opening not only his home but his heart too. Torin Boyle has spent the last thirty-odd years living in the North of Ireland, running through the rolling hills with his friends. As a pack of wolf Shifters in a country that has no natural wolves, Torin has learned to keep a tap on his inner emotions to protect those he loves. But his homeland is dying; small patches of forest turning brown and dry. When a witch appears on his family's land out of nowhere, he's concerned that the witch is to cause for what's been happening to the land. He never expected to feel pulled into her orbit so completely. Brigid's idyllic life comes to a halt when Torin's father falls ill, closely followed by other members of the Shifter's family. The land around them - the very land where Brigid's ancestors lived - is dying. If Brigid and Torin can't figure out how to fix it, she might not be the only one losing those she loves. **Trigger Warnings - mentions of hospitals and death/cancer; loosing loved ones**Complete

It has always been normal, with no murder plaguing its history. Despite being a small town, the residents were content. Every Sunday, Christian civilians will attend church as it's traditional for people in the religion. Of course, Woodsboro has another traditional set of individuals. A part that the God-believing part of the population of Woodsboro disapproves of, this is just them being ignorant and, quite honestly, idiotic since it's not hurting anyone. Amber Freeman is in her senior year, before she'll be officially done with this town. She is a rebellious person, but she's not really. She drives a motorcycle, which puts her in the rebellious category at Woodsboro High. Tara Carpenter is her "enemy." Well, they're not really enemies. Tara is the church pastor's daughter, which automatically makes her a good girl because of who her dad is. The short girl is a bright light at Woodsboro High, with her doe eyes making any guy fall in love with her innocence. Now, why are they enemies anyway? The reason Tara and Amber are enemies is somewhat complicated, but it mainly stems from their differences. As they get closer, new things begin to bloom.Complete

ℳ𝒶𝓎𝒷ℯ 𝒽𝒶𝓋𝒾𝓃ℊ 𝒶 𝒸ℴ𝓂𝓅𝒶𝓃𝒾ℴ𝓃 𝒶𝓉 𝓎ℴ𝓊𝓇 𝓈𝒾𝒹ℯ 𝒾𝓈 ℯ𝓃ℴ𝓊ℊ𝒽." ______________________________________ Tara Carpenter never wanted to leave Woodsboro like this: old into a marriage she didn't choose, sent to New York under her mother's cruel arrangement. But if this deal means tuition, a future, and freedom from the home she hates...she'll take it, even if it means becoming the wife of Amber Freeman. Amber Freeman is the quiet heir to an old-money empire, with whispers of mafia ties clinging to her family name. But she isn't what Tara expected. No cold commands, no threats. Just silence. Distance. A marriage of convenience with carefully drawn lines...and a wife who keeps her promises. Tara has freedom. Her own room. Her own life. But something stirs in the quiet spaces between them. Soft tea in the kitchen at midnight. Thoughtful gifts left without a word. Amber watches without speaking, guards without touching. And slowly, Tara wonders what lies behind those guarded eyes. And why the most dangerous woman in New York treats her like something precious. What started as survival becomes something neither of them planned. Maybe even something real.Complete

Note: This is my first official story; feel free to give advice. I could need some. G!p Amber _________________________________________ Tara Carpenter is a young, asthmatic woman who has just graduated from Woodsboro High and has gotten a full ride, all expenses paid, including the apartment, and a scholarship to a college in the Big Apple. Going all the way to New York, especially with her friends who are, coincidentally, going to the same college, Blackmore University, is a good thing for Tara. Now, she's officially getting away from her alcoholic mother. Tara was excited to move into her new apartment, which the scholarship provided, and she was even happier to meet her flatmate. Of course, she WAS happy. But once she officially got to the apartment, her mood shifted because... Amber Freeman is her flatmate...

Amber was Tara's worst enemy, as Amber bullied the short girl throughout middle school AND the first half of freshman year in high school. How will Tara survive being in the same apartment as her worst enemy for the rest of college? Will she be able to perhaps befriend her, and maybe something more...?Complete

"I am visiting under unusual circumstances. I won't bore you with the details but I have lost something of mine and I was hoping you could help me find it." " I'm sure I can help you find whatever you need." He was slightly confused. "But what exactly have you lost?" "My mate." Silence. "Does she know you are looking for her?" "Oh yes, she knows." Camila started choking on her food. She tried to maintain her spluttering so she wouldn't draw attention to herself. Taine noticed and decided to keep going. His eyes bored into her. "She actually decided to run from me... I don't know if she was a coward or just too weak and selfish to even consider giving me chance." She threw her cutlery down and stood up, leaning over the table. Her teeth were bared and a low growl emitted from the back of her throat. She felt hairs rising on her arms and neck. Usually even-tempered, she was now bubbling with rage. Taine didn't react well to her growl and mirrored her pose. He was trying to put her in her place, into submission. She was not having it. --- Destiny's collide, they crash and they scar. Rough seas, tidal waves, fighting for dominance in an ocean so deep...

She felt his surprise. She felt his light extinguish as he died. Then there was nothing. Nothing. Her head was swimming like it was underwater. She couldn't move. She couldn't move. Her vision blurred, a man was speaking but she couldn't hear his words. She felt the sword in her chest, but it wasn't there. He killed him. He killed him. Breathe. Did she stop? Breathe. The man, she could hear him speaking. What was he saying? Breathe. She inhaled a deep breath. And another. Then another. Things started to clear. "Breathe. That's right," the warrior coaxed. She started to take another settling breath, and his face came more into focus. The first thing she noticed was his piercing green eyes. She had never seen eyes quite like that before. She stared into them, mesmerized. He mimicked a breath and she took it with him. She was coming back. "I will not hurt you," the man kneeling before her promised. Anna knew better than to believe him. What was it he had said? Oh. "You...you said...you said 'no witnesses'." She was shaking violently. She took another deep breath.
