Frida has been known by many names.
Frida the Freak.
Frida the Dwarf.
Little Frida.
Tiny Frida.
Of course, it wasn't much of an issue when she lived together with Estelle the four-legged woman in their Freak Show caravan. But the Great Depression has struck the land. In a sudden twist of fate, Little Frida is sold by Dr. Benjamit to a complete stranger.
Suddenly, she is dropped into the magical reality that is the Whispering Realms. Here, she is no longer Little Frida, Frida the Freak. Here, she is just Frida, and she has a bright future ahead of her in the Court of Wyrms.
As she navigates the arts of ruling, politics, and love, however, she quickly unearths an undercurrent of rage against the Court. What is a Freak Show prodigy to do?

The Dragon Prince
I was destined to be a Dragon Rider since birth, even without having or finding my dragon at that age. I was destined to protect and serve not only my kingdom but also the other kingdoms that surrounded my kingdom, both supernatural creatures and humans alike. I was destined for greatness, or so I have been told, but that was something that I didn't understand or didn't care about at such a young age or even as I grew older until I became a young adult. And unfortunately, it was something that I should have listened to or asked questions to get myself prepared for whatever it was that I had to face. Because not only was I destined to be a Dragon Rider, but I was destined to be the Dragon Queen, for I was fated to the Dragon Prince, who was to be the Dragon King as soon as he claimed me as his own...
The adventures of a princess turned dragon

LOL XD ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ A 18 year old princess who has been sheltered all her life. (Making her naive to the cruelty of the world.) She always wanted to see the world outside of the castle. Though everyone saw her as a weak helpless princess that needs to be protected, and hidden from the cruel world she desperately wants to see with her blue eyes. A witch shows up one late after noon and offers her magic mirror, that can show her the outside world from just looking into it. She only needs to imagine the place she wants to see and will be there. The princess though was being a jerk so the witch cursed the mirror. Making it so that the princess ever looked into it, she will become a fearsome dragon. "The princess will no longer be a princess and she will see the world she desperately wants to see. Her soft skin will turn scaled. Her silk like hair will disappear and be replaced with sharp horns. She will be the monster outside as that she is inside." Whispered the witch.Complete
The Barrowland Slayers
[Wattys 2022 Shortlist] The Elven battlemage Gynefra Caul-Marrel has fought many foes over her two centuries. Humans have proven the most obstinate, yet they have forgotten the lessons that led to the War of the Great Coalition. That short-lived race has now spread into the shattered former battlefields of that conflict, building villages atop barrows of ancient dead, toiling away in mines better left abandoned. When a plague spreads through their lands, she is dispatched by the Watchful Tower to investigate. The horrors are much worse than she'd imagined. An unholy alliance has formed in the depths below, which threatens to tear apart the fragile order that's existed since the War of the Great Coalition. It's not enough to simply fight-the Great Evil they face requires a unified defense from every realm. Yet even saving human refugees isn't enough to dampen the paranoia of the Inquisition. The grievances between Elves and humanity have been built over millennia and seem impossible to mend. Yet if they cannot succeed, kingdom by kingdom will fall, until the mortal world is swept clean. Under Gynefra's leadership, a new War of the Great Coalition must be waged-yet this time united in struggle against the Twisted One, who threatens to devour their realms.Complete

The Years Between
Intro: When the heavy door creaked open the small girl gasped at the cold air that hit her bare legs. The air that now filled her lungs, was quick to leave in a small laugh as she saw the view ahead of her. A thick blanket of fluffy snow covered every branch, rock, and building in sight. It sparkled under the bright sun. The girl didn't know how lucky she was to see the outdoors under these weather circumstances. The sky was usually painted in a sea of gray clouds that snowed endless white powder onto the kingdom 11 months out of the year. The brunette couldn't contain her smile as she peered out of the doors. It didn't matter that she could see her breath, or that goosebumps littered her skin, her feet stinging against the cold stone. She hadn't been outside- ever. ~~~~~~~~ A Knight saves her and then he leaves her. A broken hearted Nymph in a brand new world. Will he come back for her? ~~~~~ All pictures are from Pinterest!

The Dragonskin
In the sprawling, flame-kissed land of Galanarath, the Brandyfire family stands as a beacon of power and prestige. Murrid Brandyfire, a proud descendant of the Fire Elven Heroes, is a Dragonskin-a rare and revered humanoid dragon warrior. Living a life of comfort in The Flame, a close-knit neighborhood steeped in ancient traditions, Murrid dreams only of peaceful days and hearthside tales of glory. But peace is fleeting. When Grysem the Greedy, a monstrous dragon consumed by insatiable hunger, seizes control of the fertile elven lands of Riverfolk, Galanarath trembles on the brink of ruin. Reluctantly, Murrid is summoned by a peculiar band of allies: Milda, an enigmatic witch whose kindness masks hidden power; four skilled but quarrelsome Elven Rangers with their own motives; and a gruff, axe-wielding dwarf with a vendetta against dragons. Armed with ancient knowledge, courage born of desperation, and the latent fire within his blood, Murrid embarks on a perilous quest. As he faces cursed forests, shadowed ruins, and Grysem's iron rule, Murrid must confront the true weight of his lineage. Can he rise to the mantle of his ancestors, or will Grysem's greed consume the world?Complete![Blood Rider [Alonia's Queenslayer #1]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/167477234-256-k479173.jpg)
