There is an island on our world, one where they roam and have their own sophisticated society, mostly keeping to themselves. Mostly. One of these creatures is named Bianca. She has to travel to where the humans live, that's where she gets her food. One day, she goes in for the kill like normal, but can't continue. On the way home, she kept asking herself over and over again, "Why couldn't I kill him?" After realizing she has fallen for him, she returns to her hunting spot. Only this time he's waiting...

Echoes of a Forgotten Destiny
Not every fairytale ends in forever. Some teach you how to survive. Bianca never meant to make Adrien fall for her. He was definitely not her type: too perfect, everyone's obsession, school heartthrob. But just after a single life-changing encounter, her entire world was forced to revolve around him, and everything she thought she knew began to crumble. As shocking secrets come to light and forgotten memories resurface, Bianca is forced to face a truth: she's not normal. And neither is their love. In a story filled with broken hearts, hidden strength, and second chances that sting worse than they heal, Bianca has to decide if love is enough... or if it's the very thing that could destroy her. She's still figuring out if she's the gorgeous Cinderella or a lost Gretel roaming around the forest, trying to escape the forces waiting to taunt her. But the truth is far more devastating. She can't afford to be a princess. She has to pick up the sword and fight, even if it means losing her life. Read to find out.

I'm a high school drop-out, late everywhere I go, and one screw-up away from being homeless. I'm a loner, and I like it that way. Who needs friends when you have a Redwood forest nearby?

No. That was my first mistake. And it might be my last. 'Cause now I'm in a battle for my life. A whole new world has opened up... a magical world I don't understand.

The Siren Song of Mareveila
Book Description: In a kingdom nestled by the sea, where beauty masks danger and politics are as shifting as the tides, a fragile peace is shattered when rumors of sirens prove true-and deadly. When the beloved prince is lured into the ocean by an enchanting song and never returns, the king launches a brutal hunt, slaughtering the creatures of the deep in his grief and rage. But vengeance never comes without consequence. Beneath the waves, the Sea King mourns two daughters lost to the blades of men. And in his fury, he prepares for war. As his court begins to fracture, one of his sons, Prince Virel, is tasked with a mission of seduction and revenge: lure the human king's only daughter, Princess Helena, and destroy her. What begins as a plan to break her becomes something far more dangerous. Because Helena is not the naive royal Virel expected-she is fierce, clever, and scarred by grief of her own. And when betrayal crashes over both their worlds, neither is prepared for the ruin... or the spark. Now, alliances are shifting. Kings are scheming. And amidst whispers of war and the shadows of drowned love, a new question emerges: Can peace be born between two enemies bound by blood and heartbreak? Or will love drown where vengeance reigns? For fans of dark fantasy, enemies-to-lovers, political intrigue, and star-crossed fates, this sweeping tale of sea and sorrow will pull you beneath the surface... and refuse to let go.Complete

Those Who Return at Dawn - Book 1 - Lord of Thymos [Romantic fantasy]
"There were many legends and stories about werewolves and vampires, dragons and elves, spirits and demons, but why couldn't he find any record about a being who lived, yet seemed not to exist in this world? Was this ritual dangerous? Summoning demons? Sacrificing his soul? Luther closed his eyes tightly. Deep down, he knew what his decision was. He needed an answer to his fifteen-year-long question." This is the story of two boys who awaken their divinities (a reaper and a sun god.) One was born with everything. The other lost the only few things he had. What will happen when the Flow of Destiny intertwines their lives? This is a story about salvation and being saved, about life and death, about exploration and adventure, about kinship, friendship, and love. Follow Luther and Aaron as they wander through the boundless Cosmos; strolling the magical market Mariana, diving into the silent depths of the Tranquil Sea, riding the Orion Express under starlit skies, visiting Sicily the city of blossoms and fruit, travelling the Heart of the Cosmos, crossing the wilds of Anasia, climbing the Tower of Tomorrow, and countless other realms where wonder never ends. What to expect: - OP MCs. - Fantasy worlds/food/species ... - Found family. - Slice of life. - Lots of cozy moments, yet the stakes are still there. - Slow burn romance (Strangers to friends to family to lovers, oblivious x oblivious.) - Cute pets. Imagine a blend of Harry Potter (a hidden magical world in a modern setting) and Percy Jackson (Descendants of Greek Gods) with a Ghibli vibe. Though told through young eyes, I hope this tale may also be read as a fairytale for grown souls: a heart-warming and wholesome adventure, with a hint of darkness and a pinch of sadness. Warnings: - Gay. No sexual content. - The story takes references from Greek mythology, Dante's Inferno, and Ars Goetia, but will add, remove, and modify many different details. Please consider this as an alternate universe.Complete
Fayre
Melissa Crawford thinks she's just a regular teenage girl. She goes to school. She has friends, boy problems, homework...you know, the typical teenage angst. But she couldn't be more wrong, for Melissa Crawford is not a mortal. Her adoptive mortal mother refused to give her up and hired a witch to erase the enchanting Faery child's memory, not realizing that things aren't that simple. You see, when she was a little girl, Melissa promised herself forever to her Leannan Sidhe (mate), a Fae Prince, and a promise to Fae is sacred. When the Fae Prince comes back to claim what's his, nothing will get in his way. "Mortals are so arrogant. So utterly narcissistic to think that they are the only intelligence in this world, to believe their realm is the only realm, their way is the only way. "Many of you believe us fairies only exist in little kids' fairy tales. We are so much more than that. We exist, living in the Realm just a blink away from yours. A few wrong turns in the park or the forest and you're there. We sometimes walk among you, and you're not even aware of it. Believe me, we exist. Across the globe, your kind calls us and our realm by different names...but as William Shakespeare once said- a rose by any other name..."Complete
