The gods have died and the arkanists have been blamed.
Ash and darkness cloak the land, the Evernight, the free folk call it. Daemons rise from the shadows and the nights are long. Alone upon the road, heading to the College at Oldtowne, Hale finds refuge within a book. That book is called, The Arkanist, and tells the story of a boy called Kaedn Fallow.
***
Following his father's unanticipated suicide, Kaedn is left alone and alienated throughout the city he has grown up in, faced with isolation, poverty, and questions. He needs to find out why his father killed himself, and starts off by searching through the library, reading the books his father read shortly before his untimely death. While there, he stumbles upon one man's secret, and changes his life forever.

The Prince's Demon [Completed]
[COMPLETED] My name is Ash. I am the first born female of the royal demon family. And luckily, I get a mate. Yes, you heard me right. A mate or other known as- soul mate. Only, fate decided to be nice and let me be mated to a prince. No, not the prince of Angels but a prince of human. Simple right? No, not when your mate is trained to kill what you are and your father thinks you deserve better than a "low life" human. Then add two very overprotective brothers and an obsessed assassin. My crazy life just got a whole lot more weird. °•°•°•° "Why the hell do you have a prince here, Ash?" Dad yells. "I want him. He is all mine. You cannot take him from me." "The hell I can! I am not only your father but the Devil himself. You will understand that I don't want any low life human around my daughter." "I know you love me but I want him. He seems to calm me for some reason." "HE IS YOUR MATE!?" My father bellows. I freeze. Well, looks like the cat is outta the bag. *Needs major editing*Concluida
Tempris
[Watty's Shortlist & WATTPAD PICKS -- Up and Coming List 06.07.2018] Now Available on Amazon!!! His hands moved down to cradle her neck. "I only have one request if you're going to keep me in suspense all day long." "What's that?" The movement of her lips drew his eyes down. "Let me kiss you again?" That voice, breathy and low, set Taly's heart racing. His lips twitched at the corners-he could hear it. Now that he could use his magic, he knew exactly the kind of effect he was having on her. But he didn't move. He waited. Her choice. She set the pace. Taking a shaky breath, she jerked her head. Yes. *** Magic marked her for suffering. Magic will save her. Magic will lead her home. On Tempris, time magic is outlawed, and suspected time mages are hunted. Humans are second-class citizens, shunned by the immortal fey that live on the island. They even have a name for their kind: Shardless. Taly is one of the lucky humans. Taken in by a fey noble and his family, she's lived a good life, surrounded by people she loves. But when an accidental brush with magic causes her to see things -- ghostly apparitions that give her small glimpses into the future -- it has deadly consequences. The Sanctorum has returned to the island, and if they find her, they'll kill her. And anyone that tries to protect her. This includes her best friend, Skye. He was the boy that saved her. The man she knew she could never have. And when he refuses to let her go, their actions might hold the power to reshape the world. An ancient evil is rising, and in order to protect those that she cares for, Taly will have to sacrifice everything. Including her heart.Concluida

Halls of Asgard - Book I
❝Ary Aragon witnesses someone committing suicide, but the unthinkable happens―the body disappears.❞ With her best friend's support and a ticket to Seri Rue University (SRU), Ary Aragon wastes no time in escaping the unyielding chains of abuse her father and brother roped around her. Fear is no longer merely an acquaintance; looking over her shoulder becomes much more than a habit. Panic eats at Ary's sanity, distorting the sense of normality she thinks is all but hopeless to achieve. They will come for her. They always do. To achieve a sense of protection, she applies to a self-defense class to ward herself from them, but reality has a funny way of clawing sense back into Ary's world. Before her very eyes, a student from SRU commits suicide, but the body-it vanishes. Now, with deranged cephibions at her tail and the devil's advocate beckoning her soul, Ary knows one thing is certain: an estranged family is the least of her worries.

Ash and Blood
A kingdom sold. A prince forgotten. A woman whose fire might be the end of him... or his salvation. Thorian under the alias Corrin, the last heir of a fallen house, lives in the shadow of his burned past, hidden behind a false name and the armor of the knightly order that raised him. When fate places him in the path of a silver-haired stranger with fire behind her eyes, he expects trouble. He doesn't expect her to change everything. Loona is sharp-tongued, guarded, and dangerous and hiding a secret of her own. As kingdoms stir and ancient powers awaken, Thorian finds himself torn between duty and desire, drawn to a woman he barely understands and haunted by a legacy he can't ignore. But secrets have teeth, and the deeper they fall into war, prophecy, and blood, the harder it becomes to tell who is saving who and who is damning them both. Loyalties will be tested. Love will be twisted. And before the heir can reclaim his crown, he must first decide what kind of king and man he's willing to become. Note: I am trying to avoid most pitfalls that seems to be in every fantasy story lately and make it more relatable to the reader when able. Some pitfalls may be unavoidable though. Also, I only use AI for editing, art and world building assistance. The eventual goal is to hire an actual editor and artist to eliminate it entirely. That being said I don't have any issues with anybody using AI as long as they don't ghostwrite with it. What to expect: Male Lead/ some Female lead when applicable Slow Burnish Kingdom Building Romance Medieval time period/with fantasy aspect Battles Some erotica World Building 30 Chapters laid out maybe more, at least 3 books planned (If I make it that far)
The Forest's Secret
In the quiet town of Devontae, a foreboding forest on the edge of the community is the source of countless whispered warnings and eerie legends. Despite his parents' strict advice to avoid the forest, Ash, a daring and adventurous young boy, is irresistibly drawn to its dark mysteries. Armed with nothing but a flashlight and a compass, Ash sneaks out one moonlit night to uncover the truth behind the forest's menacing reputation. As Ash ventures deeper into the forest, the path soon vanishes, leaving him lost and disoriented. The sounds of cracking bones and a chilling presence force Ash into a desperate sprint for safety. His harrowing encounter with a grotesque creature-part human, part animal-leaves him marked with a mysterious glowing symbol, the Fexlai, tied to ancient and ominous powers. The next day, Ash's encounter with the creature and the symbol haunts him, driving him to seek answers. His search leads him to Mr. Thompson, the town's historian, who reveals the symbol's connection to a guardian of the forest known as the Feralim. The revelation confirms Ash's fears and raises new questions about the forest's secrets and its dark protector. Determined to uncover the truth and lift the curse that now binds him, Ash prepares for another foray into the forest. As he defies his father's orders and sneaks out under the cover of darkness, he realizes that the forest's secrets are far more perilous than he ever imagined. With each step deeper into the woods, Ash must confront his fears, unravel the mysteries of the Feralim, and find a way to escape the forest's sinister grasp before it's too late.Concluida
