ELFILDA : The Banished Spy

You really shouldn't get captured as a spy for one of the most hated gods, for you'll probably be hung or fed to a dreki. That was the punishment Velimir Dagmar was hoping you'd receive. How he writhed and grinned as you were pulled up to the alter bound in ropes. How his face dropped when his mentor spared you. Spared you for a mark on your skin that classed you as one of their own. A dreki Rider.
A renowned and loathed spy for a banished god, Mortala, is sent to find the key to an ancient chamber that all across the continent seek. But whereas the elves and gods wish to keep the chamber closed, the vengeful humans want it opened, but why? Mortala seeks such answers by traveling back to her homeland, the elven realms, where tensions are high as large numbers of elves vanish and return with their saphite stripped from their skin. But her journey takes her further north than she had hoped, prompting her capture within an elven dreki-rider castle which she must use to her advantage to find the key all the while avoiding the knowing watch of their most famed and studious rider, Velimir Dagmar who inches closer every moment to exposing her as the traitor she is. But soon she will realise the key is just the surface, and the ambitious dreki-elves have their own secrets that not only connect to the key and the disappearing elves, but to her life before death.

Can You Feel It?
❝The FBI Agent with walls of steel and The Mafia Spy who couldn't feel.❞ 🎭 "Can you feel it?" "Feel what?" "My love for you." •♡• Kaya Skeats (real name: Artemis Crawford) could not, actually, feel his love. Because she couldn't feel or express much at all. Suffering from alexythemia, the inability to verbalise, express and place emotions; Kaya was a weapon of seduction honed by the Chicago Outfit. And now she had no more than four months to complete her hardest mission so far. Mixing FBI business with Mafia pleasure. Erex (Rex) Di Castillo had made it his life's mission to bring down a branch of the Outfit. It was justice that the Special Agent of the FBI's Organized Crimes Department sought, not love. As a man who kept to himself, women had no place in his life, not for one night and certainly not for a lifetime. But the deadly beauty with a sharp tongue invading each aspect of his life was making him question things. She was a blank canvas so he became the spectrum of colors in her life. The spectrum of emotions. But with the good... There always comes the bad. And for Erex and Kaya, the game of love, deceit and guns was doomed from the start. -🎭- Thank you for reading, don't forget to vote and comment! (Temporarily on Hold) it's HEA.

before you leave
She was born to be obedient. She became a killer instead. In the divided city of Alythra carved by power in blood, secrets don't stay buried - they rise. Blood determines your worth. Powerless like Narla Young - or is she? - are expected to serve, kneel, and never question the Highborne who rule them. But Narla has been playing a dangerous game beneath the surface - one name at a time, she is erasing the men who destroyed her family. Each murder is a message. Each scar she hides is a vow: I will never be helpless again. But when Apollo Calloway, the brutal highborne enforcer, is tasked with hunting the anonymous killer known only as The Blood darling, their worlds violently collide. Cold, controlled, and lethal, Apollo lives by one rule - loyalty to the regime. The killer keeps slipping through his fingers....until she walks straight into his castle wearing a dress made of defiance and eyes like strom clouds. They don't know why they are drawn to one another like violence to silence. Fire to oxygen. Ruin to revenge. But the closer Apollo gets to unmasking the blood darling, the closer he gets to falling for the one person he's sworn to destroy. And Narla? She's about to find out what happens when the hunter turns his eyes on her....and realizes she's not just his enemy....she's everything he never saw coming. As secrets unravel, and forbidden chemistry turns to obsession, Narla must decide if Apollo is just another enemy to destroy - or the only man who could burn the world down beside her. Because in a kingdom built on lies, some truths kill. And some hearts are meant to be broken.Complete
Crown of Greed and Power
["You look like hell," she stated at last. Azlan scoffed, "Likewise." She continued to study him through suspicious eyes and he couldn't help but wonder what she looked like beneath all the dried blood.

"You don't know anything." "Don't I? It doesn't take a person with eyes to recognize all that built up anger and pain sizzling inside you." "Stay the fuck out of my business."] While grieving the loss of her boyfriend, huntress Nera Atherton made it to her mission to kill every beast she can hunt down to avenge her love.

Hear The Dragon's Song
You've read Liam Mairi's story. You know how it goes. How it ends. But what if there was more to his tale? And what if it included someone already in his story the entire time? She has her own history, her own shameful past, her own secrets. But what if she's destined to change the course of not only his life, but the fate of everyone else on The Continent? And Liam? He cannot tell a soul about her. Not even Xaden Riorson. We follow Liam through his own story whilst keeping a secret that may very well get him killed, alongside every other marked one in Basgaith before Threshing. Trigger warnings: Violence, descriptions of injuries, hints at SA, physical and mental abuse, torture, sexual activities, graphic language and death. If you are sensitive to any of these topics, please consider them before reading on. Author's Note: This story is inspired by the incredible Fourth Wing by Rebecca Yarros. If you have not read Fourth Wing yet, please go read it first, as a lot of context will not make sense if you're not familiar. I am so incredibly proud of this story, I've had this idea since last year and have spent months planning and now writing this version of Liam's life. I do plan to post chapters weekly, but life sometimes gets in the way! (Also if you see any little mistakes A: No you don't and B: I have raging ADD so sometimes editing gets rather boring.)

Amongst the Waking Dreams
Nymeria Verne has always loved fantasy books. She loves the mystical lands, the fantastical creatures, the happy fairy tale endings...but what she loves most about them is that they are nothing like the real thing. Nymeria was raised in the land of faeries, constantly visiting the mortal realm with its urban cities but never understanding them. As a human living among fae, she has grown up always knowing that she is not pretty enough, not strong enough, not ever enough-for who could compare to the ethereal fae? She doesn't belong among either the faeries or the humans, and yet she loves her home and is desperate to find her place among the Seelie Courts. Despite the beauty and draw of the faerie world, there is a sinister undertone to it, and Nymeria knows that she can never be safe as a fragile human there. Not even her strenuous relationship with the faerie she refuses to call 'father' could help her. Her only chance of security and belonging is to one day come of age and become a faerie's bride, but at seventeen years old Nymeria refuses to accept marriage as the only option. In her search for her own path and independence, she stumbles across a prince of fae that offers all the solutions to her problems. She becomes his servant and agrees to spy for him in return for protection and a place in his court when he becomes High King. As a mortal, Nymeria can do something the fae can't: lie-a trait that the prince sees an opportunity in. Along the way, she meets a mortal boy, Collin, that was raised among fae just as she was. As her reluctant feelings for him grow, he has her questioning her choices and what it is she actually wants. Perhaps leaving the land of fae would be her better option... But her prince has no intention of letting her go.Complete
