Saved by the Captain of the Royal Guard when she was a toddler, Kava only knew one thing: how to fight. She's been fighting her whole life whether it be unruly recruits, being best friends with the prince, or her elf lover who just came back from a family vacation. 

Then if anything could get any better, her adoptive father declares her as his heir to his position as Captain of the Royal Guard and she starts training practically immediately. The Royal Court doesn't seem too impressed and decides to see if she's actually got potential. 

Her mission is to find the pirates that burned down her village and killed her family before the annual Masquerade Ball. However, her long lost brother and the king might complicate things. 

With this new information, will Kava be able to overcome her demons and figure herself out?

Warrior Of Light [Complete/Editing] by EEPhoenix

Having a Gift is supposed to be good. But Edileth's feels more like a curse. Vowing to hide her abilities post-catastrophe, she leads a simple, disciplined life as Captain of the Guard in Kerindh. But this is all thrown into chaos when she is summoned by the Ferlian Order to transport an ancient relic for them. Edileth accepts, not knowing that it will lead her to participate in a power struggle much bigger than herself. On her journey, she is aided by a spontaneous elf who tests her patience, a healer who soothes more than physical ailments, an enchanter who is more than he seems, and an elite ranger with all the personality of a rock. Their common goal to prevent Gael-Narenth from falling to Si-ol's tyrannical sorcerer-king brings them together in more ways than one, and Edileth starts to care for her companions. But it is impossible to ignore the war approaching, and Edileth must embrace her scorned gift, or watch her companions perish. ~~~~ Won 2nd place in the Fantasy genre for The Lotus Awards 2020. Adept Pen Semi-finalist Chapters One through Fourteen are more heavily edited. The remaining chapters are still early-draft versions and are quite messy. Thank you for your patience and understanding as I work to polish this story!

Fury | Nyx Archeron by dreaminginfiction

Tessa has many secrets, not least of which is the fact that a) she's a shadowsinger and b) she's been dishing out unsanctioned retribution to deserving males in Illyria, in the form of permanent disfigurement. Hey, they want to cut a female's wings off? Fair's fair, after all. All of her secrets are at risk of unravelling however, when Nyx fucking Archeron walks into her workshop, requesting she craft new siphons for his baby cousin. Honestly, there's nothing Tessa would like to do less, but she can't seem to resist his charming smile and soon enough she finds herself swept up into his crazy, overwhelming family, desperately trying to keep all of her secrets and keep from falling in love at the same time. "Did you not see what happened to the last male who stood in my way?" She said lowly, pasting a saccharine smile on her face. "Don't make me put you on your knees." He shifted impossibly closer, so close she could breathe in his scent of pine and sea mist. His lips brushed her ear as he bent down to reply, "Darling, I would love to get on my knees for you."

Cursed by Destiny by DrishtiPugalia

What if Kaal, the cold and distant son of Bholanath and Mata Parvati, was destined for something far greater than simply fulfilling his duties? At the age of 22, burdened by the weight of his responsibilities, Kaal lived a life devoid of warmth and affection-until he met Dhara, the lively and fearless warrior who vowed to save her brother, Abhay, from the clutches of the dark sorcerer, Daitya. Their initial encounter was one of mutual distrust and conflicting ideals, but the battles they fought together began to unravel the walls around Kaal's heart. However, the world they live in is unforgiving, and love is often overshadowed by the looming threat of vengeance and dark magic. As Dhara steps into Kaal's life, he is forced to make a choice: remain the ruthless warrior he was always meant to be, or embrace the love that slowly begins to bloom in his heart. But with Daitya's power growing stronger and the past's unresolved bitterness threatening to consume them, the path to happiness seems almost impossible. Now, Kaal must decide: will he follow the path of duty that he has always known, or will he choose a different route-one where love, vulnerability, and the possibility of losing everything come into play? "Cursed with Destiny" is a story of fated encounters, the clash between duty and desire, and the difficult choices that define us.

The Hunter's Pursuit by LeeraIvy

For centuries, the oceans of the world have served as a refuge for the pirates who sailed upon them, but many other dangerous creatures lurk beneath the surface and are now making themselves known. A terrible beast from ancient legends has returned and is now a plague upon the seas. The Pirate Lords are tasked with hunting down the beast, but tensions amongst them are fraught, making things more difficult, especially for Caspian and Primalia Flynn. They know that in order to face both threats surrounding them, they'll need help from someone who knows how to handle the larger of the two. The question is, will he be willing to take up his lance once more? And can he help them destroy the beast, or will another creature of the deep stand in their way? Warning: This book, while being a work of fiction, still deals with real and mature elements. There will be chapters dealing with sexual content, abuse, depression, gore, PTSD, and other topics which some might find triggering.

Though, she has no memory of who she truly is -- only the name the King has told her. In the crowded, suffocating city, she struggles to think clearly, to remember something. But remembering is dangerous; it could make the King angry. And angering the King something she dares not risk. Yet, when Selene begins dreaming of a mysterious man with amber eyes, fragments of her memories begin to return. As her past slowly pieces itself together, she faces the question -- will learning the truth of who she is give her the strength to claim her freedom, or will it spell doom for herself and the kingdom she has come to call home?

She's welcome into the kingdoms of the fey and the elves, but is soon under pressure to get rid of the Amulet as she's lost sight of what's really important. Tired of being a coward she faces Warren instead of running with the hopes to stop the threats of war that loom over the nation.

Sword and Mind by AshleaAdams

Pallu, at seventeen, is exhausted from training as a warrior and as one of the Queen's elite White Guard, a group of telekinetics who protect the kingdom from evil mages. Already, she has traveled and battled more than most grown men. What she needs is a holiday, but naturally that holiday can't go without the king's being assassinated, her father nearly dying, her own life being threatened, and oh, she can suddenly hear a voice in her head. So much for holidays. Pallu returns home to meet this voice who turns out to be Rumah, a young woman who shares an uncanny resemblance to Pallu. Together these new friends must fight to save their kingdom from the chaos and destruction of traitorous mages. But at what cost? ***I've finally gotten all the chapters loaded!
