Eternal: Azriel
Eternal: (adj.) Lasting or existing forever; without end or beginning Athanasia never complained about her situation. She never felt like she had the right to. A random event leads her to befriend a small boy. A boy that she believed she would never see again. His situation was heartbreaking, she knew that there are others that are more unfortunate just like him. However, this one encounter changes everything she expected of herself, gave her freedom when the world only wants to swallow her up. --- "Why are you doing this? Why are you befriending me? Though we met five hundred years ago, why do you still bring me into your life? So much can happen in that many years but instead of staying with your friends or finding other things to do, you're with me. Why?" I ask again. Though I don't like being so forward, I can't help it. I'm scared to hurt him. He shifts his gaze to me. His hazel eyes gleam into my blue ones as if he knows something that I don't. "You're right. I had five hundred years, five hundred years to stay with my friends and five hundred years to find other hobbies." He pauses, taking in breath. "But I had five hundred years without you, we only had two weeks together. And those two weeks were the best I've ever had. That's why I want to continue them-with you, Athy." --- Disclaimer: All ACOTAR characters and plot belong to Sarah J. Maas. My characters and scenes are my own work.Concluida

A Court of Starlight and Silence • 1
"The Cauldron Made me. But something older claimed me." Gaia Archeron was never chosen. Not by magic, not by fate. She was a girl who survived because no one expected her to. Until she died. And when death came, it didn't keep her. Not when an ancient power-older than the Cauldron, older than Prythian-answered a forgotten wish and pulled her back. Now, something stirs beneath her skin. Starborn. Hollowed. Changed. Not quite mortal. Not quite Made. But something in between. And the world that let her die is not ready for what she's become.

The Huntress ✓
(EDITORS PICK) In the bloody, ruthless, and decidedly uncouth world of 17th century pirates, can a woman deceive even those closest to her and survive? Bronte is forced to make some tough decisions about her life and livelihood at far too tender an age in a time and place when options for women are few. Port Royal, Jamaica, in the 17th century is only a good place to be if you're a pirate. And so, a pirate she is. A pirate's life is precarious enough without the added burden of hiding one's sex. But, if she is to survive, hide it she must. Lucien's father wishes him to take over the family merchant business but Lucien feels God has a different path; he longs to use his medical knowledge to help the less fortunate in the Caribbean. Just as he is about to embark on his God-given task, a certain pirate spoils his plans. Is he wrong about the path God has for him? Lucien is forced to work for his father and delay his plans until he can hunt down the pirate who thwarted him. He is sure he's a match for anything the pirates dish out but soon realizes he's gotten more than he bargained for and it just may cost him his life... ⭐️ Featured in Editors Pick 9/2020 Cover by @AzanthielConcluida
Elaine's Revenge
Third in the Paladins Series: Winter has come and, with it, brought a much needed lull in the war. However, on the peaceful border between Vasconia and Lloegyr, pirates have begun raiding in the absence of soldiers to protect the town. Lord Odilon Yvain, leader of the largest trading company in the kingdom, finds himself the target of these unseasonable pirate attacks. To protect his people, and to continue serving his king, he is sent to find and recruit the rogue paladin. Elaine Honorine separated herself from the paladins years ago, focusing all of her time on the singular goal of finding Pirate Blue Bird. When Odilon and Nina, leader of the paladins, offer her the information on where Blue Bird makes port, she unwillingly accepts their aid. But the lull in the war does not mean the battles have stopped, and Blue Bird is the scourge of two generations. As they journey together, Odilon finds himself equally fascinated and annoyed by the rogue paladin and her endless supply of secrets, lies, and fierce, foolish independence.Concluida

The pirate princess
In the swashbuckling world of high seas and hidden treasures, Princess Alira Buckley stands out not only for her royal lineage but for her fierce spirit and daring heart. As the teenage daughter of the notorious pirate Captain Buckley, Alira has grown up with the wind in her hair and the thrill of adventure in her veins. But amidst the plunder and piracy, Alira harbors a secret that even the most skilled sailor would struggle to navigate. Her heart belongs to Prince Derrick of Treewood-a nobleman from a distant kingdom whose charm and kindness have stolen her breath away. Their worlds are as different as the ocean is from the forest, and her father's strict decree makes it clear: no princess of the sea is to fall for a landlocked prince. Captain Buckley demands that Alira's suitor must be a pirate, not a prince, and the idea of a romantic alliance with Derrick is dismissed outright. Undeterred by her father's stern warnings, Alira's yearning for Derrick only grows stronger. One moonlit night, under the cloak of darkness and with her father fast asleep, Alira makes a daring decision that could alter the course of her life forever. Disguised and determined, she slips away from her pirate ship and makes her way to the opulent palace of Treewood. As Alira and Derrick's clandestine meetings unfold amidst the grandeur of the palace, their bond deepens, revealing not only their shared love but the tensions between their disparate worlds. Together, they must navigate the challenges of their secret romance while Alira grapples with her father's expectations and her own desire for a love that defies tradition. In The Pirate Princess, embark on a thrilling journey filled with romance, rebellion, and the unbreakable quest for true love. Will Alira and Derrick find a way to bridge their worlds, or will their love be swept away by the tides of duty and destiny?Concluida
