Samhain. All Hallows' Eve. The most mystical night of the year. The time when the veil between the worlds became perilously thin. And with a full moon overhead, this awesome power reaches its climactic height.
Sorcha had no time for mystical nonsense - there were enough challenges in navigating the mine-field of her mother's vicious temper and the most important event of her young life. For, at long last, she had left Edinburgh to see the world. She and her mother were visiting the elegant city of Bath. Sorcha was wearing the finest dress she'd seen - and she was stepping into a life she'd only dreamt of.
But when Johnny's eyes meet hers, and jealous rivals vow revenge, that delicate layer between what is and what once was rips. It shreds like the fragile thread of one's life.
One Scottish Lass is the first novella in the regency time travel romance trilogy. It is 116 pages / 18,000 words. The second novella in the series is A Time Apart. The first two novellas end in cliffhangers, while the third provides a happy ending. The series then will continue in another trilogy - those will be coming out over the coming weeks. These stories are teen-friendly with no explicit language, violence, or intimacy. All proceeds benefit battered women's shelters.
Note that for those who prefer reading books in all-in-one form, each trio of novellas will also be compiled as a completed box set once all three are done. It just means you have to be patient and wait for me to finish writing all of them :). For those who prefer to read along as I write, and offer suggestions for me to shape the plot, these novellas are here for your enjoyment!
Either way, I'd love to hear your feedback on the storyline and characters.

Outcasts
[COMPLETE] [18+]The war has ended, and while the world celebrates peace, Hermione finds herself plunged into a deep darkness during her eighth year at Hogwarts. Wrestling with the trauma of the past, she seeks solace through drastic means. Yet, her quest for closure hits a wall, leaving her desperate for a release. Until she unexpectedly finds allies among five Slytherins. Leading them is none other than Mattheo Riddle, whom she despises. Can she handle these 5 vipers? Only time will tell. IMPORTANT UPDATE (11/10/24): I will be republishing this story solely on AO3 (coming soon). I've been working with a beta (and friend) to improve this story! I thank everyone who read and enjoyed it. I will be leaving Wattpad and unpublishing this work once Outcasts is fully on AO3. BOOK 2 will also be published there. I hope you understand, thanks again for all the reads, comments and love! MATTHEO/DRACO/THEO/BLAISE/MARCUS This is a Multi/Why choose/Found Family Situation I've been itching to write a 5 relationship fic for a while now. This is a challenge for sure and as the relationships progress im very excited to see where it goes. Also, This is supposed to be a PWP. This means the main focus is smut with feelings and a bit of plot, keep that in mind. Each boy has their own "trope" and kinks (if there are kinks you are interested in seeing lmk) Last thing, the format will most likely be Plot | Smut | Plot - there shouldn't be more than 2 chapters in a row without smut so, enjoy.Complete
Little Witches
When their parents mysteriously disappear on the eve of Samhain, four sisters embark on a dangerous journey to a realm where their simple brand of magic is put to the test. ***** Although the Firestone sisters were raised as regulars (non-magic folk) by their father, their mother taught them how to cast proper spells. And it isn't until their parents disappear into the magical flames of a bonfire that these young witches must use their gifts for something more powerful than teaching a frog to speak. When they reach the enchanted town where their grandparents live, the sisters are finally told about unimaginable magic and family secrets their parents have kept from them. Not only do they learn that dragons are real, but they battle a few as they attempt to free their parents from dark forces.

Supernatural x Male!Reader Season 1
Will use (M/n) for make name instead of (y/n) ((Your name)) for those that are girls so they can use male names, and for my male peeps reading this ^^ Also (D/n) for Demon Name ~~~~~~~ Will go along with the seasons. Where it starts will be posted with in the first part ~~~~~~~ (M/n) is a well known demon in both Hell and Heaven. He did his own thing, which more then likely weren't all that good. It all landed him as a wanted man. He goes to Earth to find a new life, but he ends up with the Winchesters, helping them on hunts, and with info. Only for many demons they encounter to want his head. Now labeled as a traitor, an enemy amongst demons and angels. How will it all end?

Hellfire
As a witch, it was expected Susan would have hellfire - a vicious magic that's the bane of all immortals. However, hers is so wild she risks turning everything around her to ash. A Bright witch, they call her - hell incarnate. The only person keeping her in check is Lucius Vortigern - the vampire lord of Bath and a man with too much power for Susan's liking. In return for being the only thing preventing her going up in flames or being slain by her own kind, she acts as his sword to guard his city and the blood-bag to sate his addiction. As a result, Lucius and his own are hers to protect, be it from their own mistakes, Lucius' dangerously flaring tempers, the wolves that bay for Vortigern blood or the monster that sleeps in the depths of the house. This is a supernatural, erotic romance, and an experiment of classic vampire tropes. Book one of the Oldworld series. These books are stand alone and can be read in any order. Cover is my own art (updated 2024). Written between June 2020 - Dec 2022 Author's note - Please be mindful of what you're saying when commenting. I'm happy with helpful criticism, spelling/grammar pointers, questions or simple chatter. However, a tirade of needless, unhelpful complaints and just outright rude commentary is not welcome. My stories are terrible first drafts, they're going to be riddled with issues, so just politely highlight if you feel there's a problem. I'll listen and likely take on board the criticism. And if you're not enjoying it, that's fine, just move on and thank you for giving it a shot. This is a re-write of 'Lust for Her Master's Blood' and, while the gist of the plot is mostly the same, a lot of how it happens, the lore and the characters have been completely rebuilt from the ground up. The original can be found in the Old World Original Drafts for those who are curious or prefer it.Complete
All I Want (Remus Lupin/reader)
This story is a slow burn between you and Remus Lupin. It takes place during Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. Y/N's second year out of Hogwarts is nothing like she could have ever imagined... romance, tragedy, and adventure TW!!: DEATH, SWEARING, EVENTUAL SMUT, AGE GAP, and MAJOR SPOILERS I DO NOT own any of the characters other than Y/N and her parents. I made up this side story but I do not own the real ones (obviously) :) Highest Rank 5/3/21 #1 remuslupinxreader 7/22/21 #3 remuslupinComplete

The Ring
This is book one of a three book series. All of them are on Amazon, but I started writing the story on wattpad and wanted to keep it here for memories. Enjoy! _____________________________________________ "Beautiful women always fall for me." Sarcasm was laced in her words. "Glad to know i'm just a number to you." He stopped crawling beside her and dropped his joking manner as he saw the dark haired girl had grown visibly upset. Kandor shook his head, "I don't dream of you that way in the slightest, Chrissa." Her eyes shifted to his lips, and then back up at his eyes. "W-we shouldn't get distracted." --------------------------- On a dark night before supper, princess Chrissa's world turns upside down as her palace is being invaded, and she suddenly has to flee from her murderous fiancé Stephen who is only after one thing. A sacred thing. Her palace ring-so that he can reverse time, and become the most powerful in all of the land of the Fae. Quickly, it is learned she needs to flee to Endlaysha-where all the other royals go to hide. As she's being accompanied by a dashing palace gaurd-Michael, feelings arise that she wishes would go away. Chaos occurs as they are captured by the Vampire King, and he takes them as prisoners. Would you eventually be able to save the world from selfish Fae creatures and Vampires who will stop at nothing to obtain power greedily? Would you even want to? Especially when you're Vampire Kings' latest obsession... ----------------------------- [Trigger warning: Mature themes, and 18+ content.] #1 youngwritersshortstory February 2021 #1 adult content March 2021 #4 in faeries March 2021 #8 in monarchy october 2021 #5 gothic romance october 2022 #2 vampire royalty october 2022 #2 wattpad creator october 2022 #2 in faeries November 2022Complete
Prudence
Author Note: This story is currently being revised for pacing and clarity. Chapters may be updated. Prudence has spent her life surviving quietly in a world that rewards silence. But silence breaks easily. When she is pulled into the orbit of a man she should never have been connected to... By duty, by family, by rules she never agreed to... Everything she has built begins to fracture. Because some choices are not choices at all. And some men do not ask before they change your life. He was never meant to notice her. She was never meant to matter. But she does. And now every step forward comes with a cost. One she may not be able to pay without losing herself in the process. In a world built on reputation, restraint, and consequences, Prudence must decide how much of herself she is willing to sacrifice... Before the decision is made for her. Here's my original Prudence entry in the Wattys 2018. It was incomplete then and only included the first 3 chapters... Someone That I Used to Know By Margaret McIsaac Writing as Mallory Scot Short Description: *Wattys2018 Shortlist* Fleeing a trail of dead suitors, Prudence moves to London where she quickly receives another offer of marriage. But her new suitor is hiding a secret. He's only interested in finding out who's murdering his friends and why. (A Regency Mystery/Thriller with a touch of Romance)Complete
A Court Of Past And Present
|| Highest ranking: #9 in protection ⚔️ #1 in A Court Of Thorns and Roses🌹 #7 in Sarah J Maas 🧝🏼♀️ || "What?" Rhys asked, frowning at Mor. She shrugged, "by the looks of it, your going to be a father soon." Darkness exploded through the room. Cutting out my vision, it seeped through the windows, blocking out any visible light. Calloused hands pressed down against my shoulders, holding me in place. Soothing talons scraped down my mental barriers, trying to pry them open. I could feel his presence through the dark, feel the warmth of his body as he stood in front of me. The darkness subsided to uncover the violet stare of Rhysand eyes gazing down at me. Talons scraped at my mental walls once more before he spoke down our bond, Is this true? I looked to my mate, "Yes." He receded a few steps, stumbling over his words, "how?" "Well, when a mummy and a daddy love each other very much-" "HOW?" He snapped, cutting me off. Sighing, I relaxed my wings, exhausted from today's events, and let them slide to the floor. "A witch put a spell on me," I muttered, unable to make eye contact, "one which I think changed the year I was living in." *** Feyre is the Hight Lady of the Night Court. Living out her life, she thought it was going to be a prefect happily ever after with her only struggles being breaking the news to her mate about her pregnancy. Little did she know the darkness looming within the background, waiting to strike. When a witch appears on her door step, the last thing she would of expected was to be cursed to another year, before she ever existed. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This is a seperate novella spinoff of the acotar series.

Natural Born Sinner: A Dean X Female Reader X Sam Fic
Y/N was a civilian who lived a pretty straight-forward, boring, apple-pie lifestyle. She was incredibly smart...in fact, despite her being so young, she graduated top of her class and was now a Theology Professor at an Ivy League university. Lately, however... she felt like she was in desperate need of a change. After all... she was always a straight-A student, always kept her nose clean and stayed as far away from trouble as possible... a perfect goody two-shoes. Despite all this, Y/N knew there was something deep inside of her....something dormant; uncharted territory that kept calling to her. And once she crosses paths with two mysterious and insanely handsome "FBI Agents"... Y/N quickly discovers what it is she's been missing...and her world may just get rocked in an intense, dark, dangerous...incredibly fun...way. ----------------------------------------------- As per several requests, here is my take on a Dean X Reader X Sam fic! I overly appreciate all the love 'Dark Tendencies' received, and I hope this one lives up to expectation! This is an 18+, HEAVY SMUT, semi-slow burn read. As always, there will be some fluff to move the story along, but intense smut is the general idea! A polyamorous, trio thing is the endgame here. There will be NO favoritism! This book is written in first person, but YOU are the main character! (This does not follow the show storyline to a T, I'm just being creative lol) If you wanna bypass the story build-up and get right into the spice, (It's okay, I get it!), those chapters will be marked with ** around the chapter numbers! WARNING: My smut writing is VERY GRAPHIC!! ---------------------------------------------------------- I do not own the rights to Supernatural, Supernatural characters, the Supernatural storyline, or anything like that. This is just a fanfiction written purely for entertainment!Complete
