A High Fae King. A healer bound by fate. A curse that could tear them apart.

Xander is a warrior king, forged by battle and weighed heavy by duty. With villages being attacked and daughters stolen, his kingdom is on the edge of collapse. And to make things worse for him, he's facing haunting dreams and broken memories that leave him questioning everything. 

Lyrielle is fae-born, gifted with the power to heal even the gravest wounds. But she carries secrets she can no longer ignore: dreams of Xander, memories of a love she should not know. When their paths cross, she realises the truth and knows that she will have to work hard to break through his stone walls.

Together, they must face a cursed forest, enemies lurking in shadow, and the raw power of a bond neither fully understands. But as desire tangles with duty and despair, one thing becomes clear: in a world of darkness and blood, even love may demand sacrifice.All Rights Reserved

The Eternal Flame by haleyluvspaper

In a world divided, the fae flourish in a kingdom of beauty and power while humans starve under a tyrant's rule. Between them lies an ancient curse whispered to children as a warning: when a fae and mortal fall in love, death always follows. Slowly, suddenly, tragically-love between them is paid in blood. Juniper has only ever dreamed of freedom. So when the day comes that she is to be sold to the highest bidder, she clings to one fragile hope-that anything must be better than serving a psychotic Vivomancer who holds her life through a blood-binding. Her plan is simple: travel to Center City Colstace, compete for a coveted position among the fae, and use the opportunity to escape for good. But everything changes the moment she accidentally kills the High King's brother, unleashes an ancient Eternal Flame, and finds herself fleeing with a human man who should be her enemy. Now hunted by her own kingdom, Juniper must decide whether to obey the stories meant to keep her safe... Or risk everything for a love that could break the curse-or destroy her world.

Ashes of Magic - Hyunlix by ilovefelix_hyunjin

The world ended a long time ago or so it seemed like. Magic is extinct. Humanity is gone. The Earth is no longer ruled by kings or creatures-but by monsters from other planets. Blind, grotesque, and lethal, they stalk the land, drawn to even the smallest sound. And Felix-once the strongest magical being alive-is the last of his kind. He's been alone for years. His magic is fading. And he's convinced that love, like the world, was just another thing that didn't survive. Until he meets Hyunjin. Mortal. Stubborn. Sharp-Tongued. Completely untrained. And somehow still alive. Their meeting is chaos-swords clashing, instincts flaring-but neither can deny the strange pull between them. Felix, hardened and bitter, is forced to teach Hyunjin how to survive. But the longer they stay together, the more impossible things start to happen. Felix's magic, long thought lost, begins to return...slowly, gently...with every breath Hyunjin takes. Because maybe, just maybe- What Felix needed to stay alive... Was never just power. But love. The emotion he's never felt or wanted to feel.

Elemental Awakening: A Rose in the Ashes by WrittenRoseyReads

She was born of earth. He was forged in fire. Together, they could burn the world-or save it. In the shattered realm of Elamira, magic is dying, and those who still wield it are hunted. Roselyn has learned to survive by hiding her gift, living quietly among mortals who would never guess what she is. Until the night she finds a bloodied stranger in the woods... and uses her magic to save him. Her mistake? He's the Fire King-a ruthless ruler feared across the lands. A man whose hands are stained with war... and whose eyes burn for her. Drawn into his dangerous world, Roselyn must navigate the deadly tension between them as kingdoms fall and power shifts in the shadows. But the closer she gets to him, the harder it becomes to tell what's real-his promises, his kindness... or the pull of something far darker. Because in a world built on ashes, love isn't salvation-it's the spark that starts the fire.

Light Eternal by Caeweth92

The realm of the fairy's, a world alien to mortals, filled with beings of legends and folklore. It is a land only a hairs breadth away from earth, yet completely unreachable. It is a word of strange and seemingly inconsistent rules, governed by magic and its unpredictable nature. Fairies of all types reside in this world, each specializing in different magic, ranging from the most basic elemental magic, to shape shifting, and even traveling between worlds. Within this world is a forest so deep and dark, it is named Forest of the Eternal Night. It is home to dangerous beasts and monsters of myth, yet within the deepest darkest reaches live the beautiful Night Fae: Talented tailors, dream weavers, and master artisans. Each bears a different color moonstone embedded in their chest, which supplies their powerful magic. Along side each Night Fae exists a spider familiar, a creature whom converts dream energy into the finest silk imaginable. They lead extremely private lives, but one day a young woman dares to leave the confines of her forest home to see the world beyond. What will await her?

DARK HORIZON by wenmaw

A realm on the brink of war. A bond that threatens to consume them both. Cora's life takes a dangerous turn when she's thrust into a world of secrets and magic. Mistaken for a fae, her blood is thought to hold the power to restore balance to a crumbling realm. The first thing she learns when she's captured: never trust a dragon. Ash has always known what it means to be feared. He comes from the Third Kingdom, the only realm where dragons remain awake inside their bonded. Considered little better than beasts, the people of the Third live in isolation, training to control the instincts and will of the creature that lives inside them. Alone in the Outlands, he never expected to find a fae. Especially not one like her. When her cry shatters the forest, he understands the instinct that drives him to her side. What he does not anticipate is how fiercely he will have to fight the beast that already sees her as its own. With witches whispering of prophecy and a dark king determined to bring about a new era of ruin, they must choose: fight the fate that binds them or risk becoming the very force that brings the realm to ruin. Because the longer they travel together, the harder it becomes to tell where Ash ends and the dragon begins.

The Beast's Beauty by Curious_writer101

He had everything he could ever want; luxuries, fine meals, power, respect... He needed nothing more than himself in the realm to fill his empty heart. Alexander, a prideful, arrogant, and powerful King is cursed to live in the hideous form of a monstrous beast after showing his heartless ways at a masquerade ball. Desperately, King Xander uses all of his own sources of magic to try and break the hell-bound curse, all while staying defiant in following the Enchantress' prophesy of love. After years of living hidden in the castle walls, time and hope began running out for the King and all his servants, who were cursed alongside him. If the King never tried following the love prophecy, could it perhaps be his last chance at redemption? 𝐿𝑜𝓋𝑒... it was almost laughable. How could a heartless King ever love? And most importantly, how could someone ever love a beast? *I only write when it's cold* ❄️⛈️ #1 in Innerconflict! - 7/5/2025
