Off the West coast of Africa, at the bottom of the Atlantic trench forest, where damselfly dragons chase after beetles, and bioluminescent plants are harvested for sale, Nuru Ndangi is busy collecting rich soil in a jar--excited to offer it as a gift to his best friend.
  
  Tomorrow he will make the trek from his village to the continental elevators that will lift him above the forest, to the city of Conakry. 
  
  Meanwhile, far above the Earth's surface, in a castle carved out of a mountain of marble, a small plant-girl named Maypop is being scolded for breaking some very expensive scientific equipment and accidentally tripping a scientist with her vines, which seem to be growing out of control.
  
  And lurking in between these two best friends, drifting idley in the sky-water and waiting rather impatiently for the right ship to come, are the privateers hired to destroy Nuru's family business.All Rights Reserved

Only the Stars by 0bsid1an

Decisions that could potentially doom or save humanity should most often be left up to the adults in charge. However, when the world's only reliant for the past three centuries has been the two magical companies that can heal any diseases and wounds, what happens when everything is left in the hands of two teenagers? Navy and Azure have never been exactly 'promising.' Their fathers were blessed magical beings with amazing potential, so being the two sons of these dieties and with no magical promise at all, they've only been considered as failures in the eyes of their families. But when Azure's father dies, leaving the company in shambles, and Navy's father is spiraling after the loss of the people he loves, everyone is expecting them to be able to pick up the pieces. And so with the pressures of the entire world on their shoulders and with nothing they can do about the current situation, what other choice do they have but to run? Because even though they don't know it yet, the only way they can create beautiful things... is together. Content warning: story contains explicit depictions of physical and verbal abuse.

I started to yell until he coveredmy mouth with his hand. "If you make one more sound I'm going to flip you over and spank your ass so hard you won't be able to sit for a month." His husky voice growled in my ear. .................... Thomas's life gets turned upside down when he discovers that he is mated to two Fae.

Captive of the Sea by TheAllieL

Those who were taken... They never came back, dragged beneath the waves never to return. Their haunting screams were a symbol of their horrific deaths. Like shadows they lay in wait, the deep blue waters hiding them from view. With sharp claws they attack, Pointed fangs tearing into skin, Eager mouths devouring human flesh. Cally was taken, dragged under the water by one of the vicious creatures. But she was not devoured nor torn apart by ruthless claws--no. She was a captive. ~•~ Water instantly invades her senses. Her eyes sting, her lungs and nose burning. She thrashes, kicks, claws--anything to get away. Her efforts go to waste as her body slowly starts to shut down, the air in her lungs quickly being replaced by sea water. Cally is vaguely aware of arms wrapping around her waist and behind her head before she loses consciousness, submerged in darkness. And so she is taken. Another victim of the mysterious sea. 《Completed》 Subscribe to TheAllieL Patreon for exclusive stories and content not featured on Wattpad and to support future works and book publishing! - Free Subscriber Tier - Allie's Library - Tier 1 - $2/month - Allie's Journal - Tier 2 - $5/month Subscribe here: Patreon.com/TheAllieL

Everything Has a Price by NoraBoyle2

As Nora delved deeper into the game "The Ethereal Realm," her fingers danced across the keys and mouse, immersed in the virtual world that consumed her screen. The open world expanded, a vast and detailed landscape unfurling before her eyes. She navigated winding mountain paths, the cool air of the peaks enveloping her avatar. Forests, teeming with foliage and the echoing call of mythical creatures, stretched out before her as she wandered through their depths. Cities and villages dotted the landscape, teeming with residents-Dragons, Mernundas, and creatures beyond her imagination. One fateful night, after her children were fast asleep, she was suddenly interrupted by a message appearing on her screen. "Hero, I need your help." With that, the screen starts glitching, and before Nora can react, she is sucked into the game itself, finding herself in the very realm she was just playing in... (Self-insert because I can! Hehehe! Let me know if there are any mistakes I need to fix. Also, I'm pulling this story out of my butt, so please be patient with me.)
