Ciel Lucia is a blank human, a human cursed with ordinariness. She is destined to become a paladin's stepping stone and nothing more. However, her life takes a sudden and unexpected route--almost a taboo for blanks--when an injured boy, Kyran, falls from the sky and topples over everything she is raised to believe. 

Kyran is rude, enigmatic and anti-social. After Ciel garners a debt after he saves her life, she travels with him throughout the human kingdom and sees a life beyond the suffocating world of blanks. Ciel, however, learns that he is a target of all the kingdoms, and she must make a choice to betray him or betray her own kind.

This begins the story of a teenager lacking in everything extraordinary and a powerful stranger. And the kingdoms aren't ready to embrace it.

I will be updating this story about every week on a Friday or Saturday, but I might have days when I will randomly publish a new chapter. Also, I like to continuously proofread my work, so I apologize for all the updates on an old chapter.

Thank you for reading!

Even teen evil queens need love. Right? (Or at least a handsome sword-fighting minion to do their bidding!) *** Bad things happen when Rowen is around and the worst part is, she has no idea why until a massive family secret sends her on a fantastical journey to fight her evil fate. Will Rowen fold into the forces of dark magic or honor her true self? *** On the surface, Rowen Keckilpenny-Brown seems like a normal teenage girl with normal teen problems-no boyfriend, overprotective parents, and no friends other than a three-legged cat. But her wild red hair, reptilian eyes, and legendary temper say otherwise. When Rowen accidentally blows up the school gym, she discovers a dark secret her fathers have kept from her-she's the heir to an evil queen's throne. The current evil queen, Petronella Grimshaw, is desperate to crown Rowan the new sovereign and blackmails her into traveling to the queendom. Rowen has one month to learn how to evil queen, and it's not easy because there are those in the castle who want her dead, witches are disappearing, and an annoyingly cute swordsman keeps distracting her. Worst of all, Rowan finds herself in a duel against her biggest enemy: herself. She must fight her true fate, in the process uncovering deep familial mysteries and perhaps the biggest secret ever...That maybe, just maybe, she deserves to be loved after all.

19 parts Complete

Cienn lun'Orater was almost your average bored-with-life noble heir. Always hiding from insistent girls intent on sharing his title. Usually with the help of his twin sister, Cerenae. Then in one dark night with a sudden revelation of his latent magical abilities he is forced to run away from the only life he's ever known and join the magical Rebellion. A far different whirlwind than the one of satin and lace he's left behind. He's then told that he is the key to an ancient prophecy said to bring about the return of magic and the Gods to their rightful thrones. While dealing with his newfound magical gifts he must race across the countryside with two of the most powerful mages of the day - the handsome and quick-witted leader of the Rebellion himself: Kourokain (Kain) Admontan, and the spunky all-powerful sorceress Charna of Idaine. By way of an ancient and powerful book, Cienn must master his gifts and decide if he really is the catalyst for victory everyone keeps telling him he is. Can he handle the weight of destiny and a nation at war with itself on his shoulders? And let's not even mention how he feels whenever he catches sight of that handsome rebel leader, Kain.
