Lisette finds herself in a different world—one with mythological beings and garish creatures. She soon learns that she has a duty to fulfill and that she has the weight of the world on her. What do you do when you're the sole superhero for not one, but TWO worlds?

Then a green-eyed stranger enters her life echoing her inner thoughts and voicing warnings about others wanting to harm her. He knows things about her that no one should possibly know, and he awakens her in ways she never expected. This leads Dahlia to discover who she really is, for she is more than just human. With this newfound knowledge, and the elements suddenly fighting against her, she finds it hard to trust anyone. And as she finally awakens and comes to grips with the power she possesses, she fights to stay alive. Before the world, as she knows it, ceases to exist. (ᴘʀᴇᴠɪᴏᴜꜱʟʏ ꜱᴇʟꜰ-ᴘᴜʙʟɪꜱʜᴇᴅ)Complete
Song of the Moonlit Garden
In a world that fears what it cannot name, there lives a girl who speaks the language of the wild. Liora was born beneath a silent moon, her first cry echoing through the forest. From that night onward, animals were drawn to her - birds sang her name, wolves bowed their heads, deer sought her touch, and every lost creature found its way to her door. To the beasts, she was warmth, gentleness, and love. To the villagers, she was a curse - a witch who bent nature to her will. Banished to the forest's edge, Liora built a small home among the moonlit trees, where she lived surrounded by the creatures who adored her. She tended to the wounded, sang to the restless, and found peace in their company. But the world outside would not leave her be. One by one, five men - each powerful, scarred, and searching for something they cannot name - are drawn to her haven in the woods. Some see her as salvation. Others, a mystery. And all will come to love her in their own way. Yet darkness lingers beyond the trees, and as the whispers of witchcraft grow louder, her moonlit garden will become both sanctuary and battleground - where love and destiny entwine like roots beneath the earth.

Can love survive when the very fabric of reality is at risk?Complete
