devils emotional magic melancholy mystery vampire

They whisper of an ancient legend...

High in the forgotten skies above the world, where the wind howls like a mourning spirit and clouds crown the jagged peaks of Mount Vulcanos, a presence waits.

They say a towering figure dwells there-twice the height of any man, cloaked in shadows, faceless save for a pair of glowing eyes that pierce the storm.

Those who dare approach the mountain speak of a silhouette rising through the mist, and a wind so fierce it seeks to cast intruders back to the earth.

Then, always, comes the voice-low and steady, yet heavy with warning:
"This is no place for living, leave"

The Lies We Keep by CassQuevillon

At Blackthorn University, magic is real, sarcasm is a weapon, and ancient secrets never stay buried for long. Elara Winters thought surviving her first year would be her biggest challenge - until she discovers her bloodline is tied to a forgotten war, her enemies wear charming smiles, and her destiny might involve saving the world... or burning it down. With her grumpy academic rival-turned-reluctant partner, Sebastian Blackthorn, a misfit crew of friends with secrets of their own, Elara is drawn into a labyrinth of cursed vaults, magical politics, and a war that never really ended. As forgotten powers awaken and shadows crawl through campus halls, the only things sharper than their swords are their comebacks. Romance, danger, and very questionable life choices collide in a story where love is messy, magic is dangerous, and nothing at Blackthorn stays buried forever. Because some destinies don't ask nicely. They drag you in kicking, screaming - and sarcastically armed.

Virelight Trilogy - Book One - The Witch of Westwood Lane by CristinaAnaGF

When Elara Finch accidentally destroys part of her local library, she's promptly suspended - which is bad. But then she inherits a mysterious estate from her eccentric (and possibly undead) aunt - which is worse. Now trapped in a whimsical town full of secrets, a snarky cat, and dangerously handsome men, Elara must unlock a magical legacy before the shadows closing in consume her... or worse, ruin her favourite boots. Perfect for fans of cosy magic, sharp banter, and slow-burn mystery-romance with a bite. "If A Deadly Education and Good Omens went for coffee with Gilmore Girls in a haunted village straight out of Howl's Moving Castle, you'd get Virelight Trilogy - witty, whimsical, and a wildly charming magical misadventures with heart, humour, and a touch of mystery."

Alone in the Snow by MD_After_Dark

A man seeks escape in the wilderness, but the further he goes, the less the world makes sense. A storm rolls in, hunger grows, and something dark begins whispering from the trees. Shadows shift when he isn't looking. Time bends in ways it shouldn't. And something is watching-something ancient, something patient. By the time help arrives, reality itself has unraveled, leaving only emptiness... and a single blooming rose in the snow.

The Quiet Outside by Crimson_Skii

Desperate to meet a looming deadline, writer Elias retreats alone to a snowbound mountain cabin. No internet. No distractions. Just time. Quiet. And the woods. But isolation plays tricks. Strange sounds echo from the trees. Shadows move where nothing should. Pages appear on his laptop that he doesn't remember writing. And out past the tree line, something is watching. As the snow deepens and the days blur, Elias's grip on reality begins to slip. The forest isn't empty. The silence isn't safe. And whatever lives out there-it doesn't want him to leave. The Quiet Outside asks: "What happens when the only voice you can trust is your own... and even that lies?"

Outsider by Baozi2002

'Mark was a royal prince in world full of people with auras. When his family found out that he is Auraless, they plot a plan for his murder. When he finds out about it, will he be able to escape and live happily ever after?, or will he face challenges and situations that he had never imagined before?.' Prequel When his mouth closed and the song that he was singing ended, his eyes were at awe at the wizardry that they witnessed. The trees looked like as if a fairy had sprinkled fairy dust on them with the ground looking as if it were made out of gold.The river looked like it absorbed and swallowed all that was there from the stars' gleam and glittery fluorescent glimmer from the silver moonlight. He looked as dim as the deep galaxy with golden hair that gravitated any object to it, like a black hole, except that it was golden instead.The sun had already gave Mark's eyes all its majestic beauty with a fiery gaze that glinted anyone's eyes if they stared too hard. Mark didn't just not understand what was happening, he felt like his mind was the biggest prankster to ever exist on planet Earth. 'Are dreams supposed to seem this pretty?', thought Mark.

Mt. Sensan-Ghi by kijknietlinks

A collection of poems and short stories interwoven in a larger narrative that served as a way for me to work through burnout. The tale of Estavir is a metaphorical dive into my burned out mind as he searches for deeper meaning and climbs Mt. Sensan-Ghi filled with trials to test his heart. This is my first published work of fiction. It was conceptualised during a burnout I experienced back in 2017. With support from family, friends and a professional with whom to talk, I tried working through the burnout over the period of a year. At each stage of my journey I created a story to help me process. It's bizarre, a bit dark slightly existential and close to my heart. Please enjoy.

Death Before Her Eyes by Miss_Gaia_28

P R E F A C E Defenseless and silent. Freedom is nowhere to be found as these eyes gazed upon this unfamiliarity of a place with ears dancing from these melancholy ballad melodies caused by the nightingales. Her mind was shaken by the realization that it should have been just a feigned realm, but it was not at all. Fear has crawled back to her like a man in the desert with no water or aid, only his solitude. The unknown whereabouts of hope remained veiled; even if she took her eyes out of her sockets, she could still feel the desolated morbidity of a cage with her obliviousness to hope. Peculiarities are increasingly arriving, like every droplet caused by the rain. If only Pandora had not held onto her curiosity.

Tides of the Enchanted Grove by Rashmi80412078

In a world where knowledge is power, Elara, a young woman from an advanced era, stumbles upon a mysterious library that only appears under the light of a full moon. Drawn by its secrets, she solves an ancient riddle, unlocking a portal to a forgotten realm brimming with magical artifacts and wisdom. Absorbing the knowledge within, Elara transforms, becoming the keeper of an enchanted world that merges with her very being. But with great power comes a price-Elara can no longer return to the life she once knew. The jungle that holds the heart of this new world whispers secrets, guiding her toward an amulet that grants her dominion over nature itself. As she grapples with her new identity, Elara must leave her sanctuary to forge her presence in the outer world, where the ancient forest she now embodies once stood. Without an identity or allies, she must carve out a path in a world unfamiliar with her power. With the weight of two worlds resting on her shoulders, Elara's journey is only beginning. As she navigates through the mysteries of her newfound existence, she must decide how to balance her divine connection with the natural world and her place in the outer world-before both slip beyond her grasp.

The desire of love with a fairy by future_author_fuhu

She always thought she was just a normal girl... until a deadly secret comes knocking. Stolen from the mystical Fairy Realm as a baby, Elara doesn't know she's a fairy destined for immense power on her 20th birthday. An evil sorceress plots to kill her before that day - to stop her rise and steal her magic. But fate plays her own game. On an ordinary day, Elara is kidnapped by a cold, ruthless mafia boss - a man with shadows in his past and fire in his eyes. At first, she hates him. But the closer they get, the more secrets unravel... including the truth about who she really is - and the kind of magic that could either save the world or destroy it. In a race against time, with love blooming where it shouldn't... Can Elara survive long enough to claim her power?

Bond Of The immortals by Heart_of_Chaos_04

INSPIRED BY NOBLESSE. A long time ago, there were those with superhuman strength and longevity, who used their powers to protect humanity from catastrophes. They chose to live in the shadows, quietly and in solitude. Worshiped by humans, they were sometimes known as nobles, sometimes as rulers, and sometimes as gods. But little is known about the strongest among them, who protected the other nobles. This guardian of the nobles.... He was called the "Nobilis." The island have been suffering for centuries. The Leaders had been dying faster than ever. What is the power that threatens to kill them all? Who is the one to save them all? What was the prophecy that was chosen? Will the world live or will it just...die? The seven leaders rule the land of Ashborne and they must live in unity to survive the last battle. But they were never faced by happiness, just regret. Who will stand in the end? Or none will. Read the story to find more details. To find out more about the characters. And the language used is elvish from middle-earth by J.R.R Tolkien.
