She has the magic to save her friends-but it'll cost their trust to use it...

Lallie Nonsire Cobbleson is no stranger to prejudice. Between her heritage and her childhood spent in an orphanage, she knows full well how most folks like people they find strange. So when her friend, the illegitimate Evonalé Yunan, gets a crown and a husband, it doesn't surprise Lallie that assassins soon follow.

Assassins that Lallie can assassinate in return, if she wants to. If she dares admit what she's become.

But folks fear and hate what she is with good reason. Mages, folks who use magic, commonly go insane, and Lallie's magic is far stronger than most. Strong enough that it's taken control of her before, and done things she never would.

Protecting her friend the queen will force Lallie to stop playing human and to admit what she is, abandoning the only life she's known. And that's only if she survives the friends whose trust she'll shatter by admitting her lies-and the magic she'll have to use in doing it.

"Am I the last of my kind, or not?" L is an orphan, she has no family to speak of, no real name and no idea who she really is. The only things she has from her birth parents are a very short letter and the blanket she was bundled in as a baby. She has run away from foster homes her entire life, never letting anyone get too close. She likes to be alone, hates most people and has a habit of getting into trouble. When terrifying creatures corner her in a cemetery, L is saved by a mysterious beanie-hat-wearing stranger. One who reveals that her one and only friend has been abducted, that her life is in danger and he's her only hope. The stranger leads her into a new world of mystery and wonders. A world that needs her. A world she was always meant to be a part of. A world at war. With a bit of magic, a few new and unusual friends and a tendency to get into trouble, will L be able to defeat the evil that's threatening to ruin the new life she has found? Will she get the answers she's been searching for or will she find only danger in her future?

Siren Song (The Fated #1) by UnboundWings

Iliana Katrakis couldn't care less about the will of the gods, and she's certain they feel the same way about her. After all, it's rare for the god-touched to live normal lives--and that's all she wants. Having spent the last three years aboard the merchant ship Airlea, Iliana couldn't be happier. Sure, her best friend Kain is the only one who knows she's a girl, but it's a good life. The work is simple, and her shipmates are the closest thing to a family she has. Fate, however, is not on her side. A storm tosses the Airlea wildly off course. Within the day, she's stranded, alone and injured, on a foggy island known only as Inna's Cove. She's given a choice: become one of the islands' goddess blessed sirens and rescue her best friend, or take her chance with the monster-infested woods. The choice seems obvious. That is, until the mercenaries arrive. Their captain wants a siren--and not even the threat of the goddess' wrath will change his mind. **Cover by Morana

Love Me Red ✔️ by TheAshleyDaniel

She wouldn't have been a bid if her brother hadn't killed one of the Devines; the heir of Consigliere. Adeline Greene is chosen for a marriage that is supposed to be a penalty for her family. She is to lead a torturous martial life once she turns eighteen till her death. The worst part? She hasn't been informed about what lies for her in the future. The girl has all fantasies about being a noble, dedicated princess to her childhood fiancee until she realises her marriage isn't supposed to be a fairytale. It is meant to be a horror story. A path which leads to her end. Kieran D'Angelo is not designed to be a human, let alone act like one is impossible. The man has a dead heart or some may say he isn't born with one. He is notoriously known for three things, his intimidating silence, obsession with blood and inability to feel an emotion. His people call him 'Kill Machine'. The following successor to enthrone the most dangerous and massive underworld network but what will happen when his heart beats for the first time for someone's bride who also triggers his haunted past? Simple answer. Blood will spill, chaos will create, war will wage and undoubtedly, the killing machine will snap each throat if it is used for yelling at her, rip every heart if it dares to skip a beat for her and break each bone in hand if it lays a finger on his sapphire.

How To Rule ✅COMPLETE by Lukinglass

When Rin imagined meeting her mate she did not expect their first meeting to be of him wounded and kneeling in her father's throne room slowly dying. What was more shocking was how she healed him without a second thought because she couldn't bear his pain and even going as far as kissing him slightly forgetting everyone in the room including her father who did not look in anyway pleased. She is torn between two sides. The right one blurred in-between them both. Each holding a consequence she just might not be ready to face. Her father who is grooming her to be exactly like him, a merciless tyrant. Or Her mate who wants her to forsake all she's ever known and in doing so choose him and his people, the rebels. *** 'Rin I care about you. The moment you let them conquer your mind from something as weak as your heart you have already lost. They will use that spymaster to dethrone me and once they do that they will disgard you for your blood relation to me. Understand. I have to protect you Rin even if it hurts you. You're my little girl.' *** Written for the open novella contest 2021. Longlisted for the open novella contest 2021.

The Reaching By Martha Swann by MarthaSwann

England, 1981. Lia is a monster: a sunshine, people-pleasing monster who has poisoned her mother. Not on purpose, but still, it's enough to make her hate her own skin. She needs help to find a cure - the docs are doing precious little. And to make things worse, the only person she thinks can help, sullen and withdrawn Gem Hawker, hates her.

But as the two investigate the poison, Lia starts to unearth shocking details of a hidden community of dragonfly shifters who are prepared to kill in order to preserve their anonymity. Lia must journey to independence and rebel against those closest to reach her calling. Lia finds herself emerging into a world where adults are casually cruel, bodies can't be trusted, and love is rarely simple or painless. As global warming shrinks the wilderness, wild things come close, closer than Lia could ever imagine. *New chapters (almost) daily *

Under the Willow Root by lindifleur

WATTYS SHORT LIST! When sixteen-year-old Sasha Nikolayeva opens her eyes on a horrifying tableau of dead and dying bodies, she can only hope to wake up. But the nightmare, if that's what it is, doesn't end. Instead, Sasha finds herself rendered mute and enslaved by a society which doesn't recognize her as a human being. To the citizens of Kingsgarden, "thralls" like Sasha are automatons brought into being by mages, incapable of speech or independent thought. Hidden behind a carefully crafted mask of soulless neutrality, Sasha silently endures starvation, degradation, and physical abuse at the hands of her captors as she watches and waits for an opportunity to escape into the glittering, majestic capital city of Kingsgarden. Despite visions of her old life which strongly suggest that she is suffering from some sickness of the mind--a neurological disorder, or perhaps simple insanity--Sasha is determined to take matters into her own hands and find her way home, whether she is imprisoned truly in a foreign land or only in her own mind. But as time goes by, Sasha finds herself drawn to the beauty and vitality of the City...and to the handsome Beastspeaker who only wants to give her his heart. Sasha knows she has no choice but to leave it all behind in order to go home, but she can't help but begin to wonder if "home" is where she thought it was and if the line between reality and madness is as fixed as it seems. This is a very early version of my novel "A Garden of Light and Shadows" which is currently under agent consideration. Cross your fingers for me!

The Atonement of a Writer by 1OnceUponAFairytale1

Lilianne Marineau, aka Lili, a struggling writer like you and me, wakes up to find herself in the body of Arielle Dumont, the female protagonist in her own, half-written novel. What would happen next? She sure as hell doesn't know. At first, all Lili wants to do is survive, and is overcome with the feeling that she had been bound by chains of her own making. Soon enough, though, she realizes she had been atoning for the wrong thing--and maybe, just maybe it was not her fault. A story of a writer who has to live as a character in a world she hasn't quite fully developed yet. A terrible writer with terrible concepts of magic in a fantasy world--and yes, there are glitches. TW: anxiety/depression/existential crisis esp in the earlier chapters, but quite mild, nothing we all haven't experienced before (I think anyone would reasonably panic in MC's situation). Still overall fairly lighthearted
