Celeste Eris Vespera
✧ ✧ ✧
Waking up in another world sounds like a dream.
Elandris Imperia proves it's a lie.
Cindy Evangelio once had her own name, her own life, and her own choices. But brought into Elandris and stripped of everything she was, she's forced to live as Celeste Eris Vespera, the perfect daughter her father crafted, the obedient marionette everyone expects.
Thrown into a world of strangers; with a fiancé she's never met, a dangerously mysterious man, and no way to tell friend from enemy.
Cindy is forced to survive on instinct alone.
This is not a fairytale.
This is a game of strings.
And she refuses to be a marionette.

Legend has it, if you stand at the edge of the cliff at the crack of dawn holding a candle and your most beloved possession, you can open a doorway between dimensions.

The Queen and the Quisling
CHRONICLES OF CROWN AND CASUALTY BOOK 1- The princess is her parent's pride and joy. This quality will forever be reflected in her name, which can literally be translated to "King's Victory". Unfortunately, the "Victory" referred to in her name has always winded down to her compliance to everyone's wishes but her own, and, of course, her beauty; seen by everyone as one of the princess' dominant traits. She is the spitting image of her beloved mother, with her long, caramel colored hair that cascades in soft ringlets down to the small of her back and her blue eyes that remind everyone who looks into them of the beautiful ocean her palace sits near, who's frothy waves lap at the warm, golden sand. Yes, the princess is always told her eyes were a blessing given to her by the gods, but she knows that whenever her father looks into them, all he'll see is the woman he once loved who was taken from him too soon, and not, in fact, his beautiful daughter that was so lovingly left behind for him. She knows that because of his grief, she will forever be trapped inside the luxurious walls of the palace she grew up in. So no, she doesn't see her eyes as a blessing. In fact, she sees them as a curse, and she's accepted her fate, never once imagining that it could change. Little did she know, fate is only a suggestion.Complete![Charmed [✔]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/225408567-256-k164551.jpg)
Charmed [✔]
Elise's life is never a bore. With unusual parents, mad scientist brothers, and a little sister who aspires to be a witch, who can say that she is ordinary? Just looking at her herb collection and extreme fascination with ancient medical treatments, no one can deny that peculiarity runs deep in her blood. But, who will have known that her so-called 'strange life' is actually the most normal thing she will experience? Gone with her dad's antiques, the daily fortune-telling of her mom's, the crazy inventions of her older brothers, and the voodoo dolls of her sister, everything is never the same after letting curiosity reign over herself. Gigantic creatures, people with magic, fairies with their beautiful wings, black-eyed demons, and animals who can turn into humans await her as she travels into a new world. A world that is a completely different place. A world where she doesn't belong. ...Or does she?

The Sorcerer's Pet
He burned for control. She was born of chaos. Together, they'll shatter the laws that broke them-and forge a love fierce enough to change everything. - In a kingdom where magic is law and the powerless are sold like cattle, survival is a coin few can afford. Every season, the poorest are swept from the streets and auctioned off as Familiars - living mana batteries to feed the ambitions of greedy sorcerers. Forgotten. Disposable. Erissa expected pain when she was claimed by Lord Kaelen Carmentis - the coldest sorcerer in the court, and heir to one of the oldest bloodlines in the realm. She didn't expect the bond to awaken something inside her. And she certainly didn't expect that, in the silence between them, she would feel safe. But Familiars aren't meant to be felt. And whatever is growing between them... is breaking every rule. Because she was never meant to survive the system. She was meant to rewrite it - and burn the old world down in the process.Complete
