They say the willow tree only awakens when fate demands a sacrifice.

Emily never believed in legends. She barely believed in herself. Orphaned young, abandoned by luck, and stripped of everything in a single cruel day, she wandered into a forgotten park where a lone willow tree stood-ancient, silent, and waiting.

One touch changed everything.

A mysterious red string flickers around her wrist, fate reveals itself in the strangest way. What she believed to be the end-her final breath, her last prayer-becomes the beginning of something she could never have imagined.

In this new realm, Emily discovers a society governed by ancient traditions and ruled by a charismatic but enigmatic monarch: a kingdom where castles rise above misty hills, nobles whisper of rebellion, and monarchs rule by blood and prophecy.

But why did the tree choose her?

And in a kingdom crumbling under secrets, can an ordinary girl change a world she was never meant to be part of?

As Emily unravels the truth,  will she return to the life she knew-or embrace a destiny written in another world?

What would she do?

Would she dare to follow the path through the willow?





"Willow" is a tale of identity, courage, and the enduring power of hope, where one girl's journey through time and across worlds ultimately reveals the bonds that transcend dimensions and the strength found in embracing one's true self.

Bruises, Cuts & Scars by ChennaeKelly
22 parts Ongoing Mature
I was never supposed to see the other side of the forest. And I definitely wasn't supposed to fall for a princess. One accidental step through a hidden gate, and my scars turned to gold, my blood to gemstones-and my life into a political weapon. Now I'm caught between the human world and the Fae court, where beauty hides deadly ambition and alliances are as fragile as glass. The Queen's enemies want to use me. Her daughter wants to protect me. And every choice I make pulls me deeper into a game I don't understand. In the Celestial Veil, secrets have teeth, magic has a price, and even love can be dangerous. Perfect for fans of Throne of Glass and A Court of Thorns and Roses - a slow-burn, high-stakes romantic fantasy filled with court intrigue, hidden magic, and a heroine who must decide if surviving means staying human... or becoming something more.

When her father-the last Lord of Altheryn-dies poisoned and powerless, Sophie Muir loses everything she's ever loved. But grief turns to terror the night she flees into the frozen gardens and stumbles upon the Tree of Chronos-a mythical force said to bend time for those desperate enough to touch it. One heartbeat later, everything changes. Sophie wakes in the past-her father alive again, her kingdom unbroken, and her name erased from existence. But this world is not the ruin she remembers. Power hums beneath every breath, secrets bloom like rot beneath gold, and the man sworn to guard her-Kealor Darius, the Lord's ruthless second-watches her with eyes that promise both salvation and ruin. As Sophie unravels the truth behind the Chronos and the war destined to come, she must decide who to trust in a time that isn't hers-and how much of her heart she's willing to risk for the people she's already lost once. Because fate can be rewritten. But every choice demands blood.

Roses & Revolt by auroraasylum
17 parts Complete
The wind knew her name. It whistles it through the cedar groves and croons it against broken barn slats, a sweet, uncatchable sigh: Aradia. Born to the soft hush of loam and lavender, a daughter of moss and moonlight, she walked barefoot before she ever learned to crawl. Her soul, stitched from willow bark and stardust, beat not to clocks or schedules but to the unseen rhythm of roots burrowing deep and rivers carving stone. She never meant to be a heretic. Aradia danced. She spoke to trees and kissed frogs on their slick little crowns and left herbs and poems beneath forgotten altars like offerings to a world grown too quiet to believe in magic anymore. A witch. A rebel. A weed in their pristine garden. But she only ever wanted to bloom. And bloom she did-wildly, recklessly-until the very soil beneath her feet seemed to rebel with her. Townsfolk with pitchforks and phones in trembling hands began to murmur that her sweetness masked something ancient and dangerous. Rewrite a wrong, the world's gone mad. Make an example. They wanted fire, purification, absolution. They wanted her bones.
