Dance Macabre: Tales from a Cursed Land
The cursed land. A prison to throw those who people in power want gone - and not coming back through reincarnation. Raviel could not stop his brother from being banished to this realm, but after 10 long years of magical research he finally has the means to go after him and bring him home. If only finding him in the land infested by monsters - and often by men and women not much better - were that easy. --- Winner of Horror category in The Flower's Awards 2018 --- Heavily inspired by Ravenloft books and the themes of Witcher 3 video game, so if you like either, at least give it a try. Feedback, both positive comments and constructive criticism, is very welcome. WARNING: I would not quite classify this as "mature adults only" - personally I read Ravenloft books in middle school -, but it does get pretty creepy at times. If creepy isn't your thing, you might want to wander elsewhere.Complete

But when I received an invitation to a private college named Pyrus Luna, my entire perception of reality was turned on its head. I discovered the magnificent Ancient Language, something born in the time of Kings and Queens that held mystical secrets for those called Draoi, humans with the ability to wield powers that make the common man insignificant. It's only when my heritage is finally revealed to me and my powers begin to manifest that I found the answers I was looking for, who I was destined to become and why I was left in that hospital all those years ago. But at what cost?

A Thousand Times Enough
Published Story! Book 1 out now at www.AuthoredbyTejav.com Josie Carter is seventeen and already tired of life. Grieving, guarded, and forced to grow up too fast, she's used to surviving, not living. Keeping her head down is the only way she knows how to stay safe. But everything shifts when a new environment forces her out of her comfort zone and into the path of new faces, new feelings, and hard truths she can't outrun. When tension, trauma, and trust collide, Josie must figure out how to hold herself together before everything around her falls apart. Some wounds don't fade. Some love stories don't come easy. But sometimes, what breaks you also builds you. Silas Remington is everything Josie isn't: rich and unapologetically complicated. But beyond what she and others assume, there's chaos beneath the surface and bruises he doesn't show. Their lives collide in ways neither expects, and what begins as animosity slowly unravels into something deeper-something neither of them can explain, yet both of them feel. In a world where nothing is promised, they discover what it means to be enough-for themselves, and for each other.Complete
A Lasting Curse
This is my first story to be posted on Wattpad. This is the story of a curse, and those bearing it learning to make it their own. It is a story of love, and hope. A story of conflict and despair. If you can't handle mature topics such as self harm, alcoholism, war, PTSD, depression, chronic illness, please don't read it. Otherwise, enjoy this special story! I am also co-writing this with @Endereye587, and they are a really good writer so I recommend looking at some of their stuff. Trigger warning because there is mention of self-harm and alcoholism, as well as general mental health stuff.
