***Dark fantasy & horror***
Hidden within the town of Islesbury lies a snow glazed forest. To some, it's just a God forsaken forest with no meaning, no interest; it's just sorta there. To others, it's more then just a forest. It's home to a sacred family. It's filled with hidden treasures and mystical creatures. Anneska Gem knows this all to well, for she lives there. But what happens when her kingdom is overthrown by a dangerous group of bandits who enslave her family. What will she do when she finds a strange girl lurking through her once called home. What will become of Emerald forest when her father's doppelganger takes his position as king and sends the kingdom into a bloody war? With her new friend, Freya, the young princess will have to battle through the dark creatures and evil of the once peaceful Emerald Forest.

The Atheil Chronicles: A Call to Fire
All her life, Ariana Lucade had lived on the border of the forest, happy and free beneath the reaching branches of the trees that she loved so much. She had always been content with her life exactly the way that it was: she had her mom, her cat, and her forest to keep her company, and she was sure that that was all that she would ever need. Never worrying about the future, never wanting more than what she already had, Ariana spent her days amongst the trees, letting her mind do the wandering while she kept her own feet planted firmly on the ground. That is, until she meets a mysterious stranger one night on a path that never should have been there in the first place. In that one act, Ariana's whole life is thrown into chaos and she's introduced to a world that she never could have imagined existed. Things aren't quite as magical as they seem, though, and Ariana soon finds out that the forest holds much darker secrets than she could have ever dared to dream. This is Book 1 in a 4 part series. Book 2 is ongoing and titled The Atheil Chronicles: A Call to Blood This book has mature scenes and the corresponding chapters toward the end of the book are marked with Trigger Warnings.Complete
As the Crow Falls | ✔
Niccola is a demi-queen undercover in enemy territory. Her little sister went missing seven moons ago, but one lead remains: a picture of a woman's face, drawn by a diviner shortly after the disappearance. Tracking her down has led Niccola to Calis, the realm next door whose border with her own remains closed for a reason. There, the trail goes cold. Until, that is, Niccola runs into a man in the marketplace who bears a family resemblance to the woman she seeks. His name is Isaiah, crown prince of Calis, and he's investigating disappearances, too. They join forces, faking courtship to sneak Niccola into the palace and get Isaiah's wedding-minded mother off his back. It doesn't take long to suspect that a common threat might underpin both their realms' problems. And as Niccola begins to develop real feelings for Isaiah, she's faced with an impossible choice: reveal her secrets and risk breaking his trust, or leave him in order to chase down the woman who stole her sister... a woman whose forbidden magic comes with a cost that could bring both realms to ruin. ❖❖❖ Complete and fully edited.

✓ | Girls of a Feather | #OpenNovellaContest2019
[ an Open Novella Ambassador's Pick 2019, Longlisted in the Open Novella Contest ] [ featured on Fairytale Community's Misc. and Combo Fairytales Inspired/Retellings ] Ever since 15-year-old Annemie saw Antsje Pluk, the fairytale figure who supposedly eats children for dessert, she's known that the witch will come for her. Now that she's no longer a child, the forest doesn't scare her anymore. One night, she sneaks out. But instead of returning safely in the morning, Antsje Pluk curses and captures Annemie, bringing her to a cottage hidden deep in the woods. Girls have been disappearing from their village for years, but Aleta, Annemie's twin sister, won't let her become one of the lost. In order to save her sister, Aleta must face her fears head-on, find a magical flower, confront an evil witch, and break an age-old curse. Luckily, she has the guidance of an old friend, but the other girl is not what she seems, and there are secrets hidden in the woods. Sprinkled with Dutch lore, this retelling of a neglected fairytale is filled with witches, moss maidens, and shape-shifting, but it all comes down to some very human traits: bravery, sacrifice, and most of all, love. cover by @anonymousmlpfan "A lovely little story, full of brilliant fairy-tale descriptions.

The Bird Witch (Dark Fairy Tale Queens - Book 5)
PLEASE READ FIRST SO YOU DON'T SEE SPOILERS!!! This is a continuation of the Dark Fairy Tale Queens book series. Picking up after the events of 'Bad Beauty', the fairytale characters - Cinderella, Snow White, Rapunzel, and Beauty - must contend with the new threat of the Bird Witch. Based on the obscure fairytale 'Jorinda and Jorindel', this serial delves deeper into old characters, while bringing in some new ones. Naturally this contains spoilers from the book series. To start from the beginning, look up Sinful Cinderella on Wattpad. This story is being told in serialized format. What this means is that instead of chapters, I will be posting EPISODES, kind of like a TV show. Each episode will be its own self-contained story, but there will still be a forward-moving plot that connects them. Serial episodes typically run longer than book chapters - covering about 10-15 pages if it were printed. Each episode will be told from the viewpoint of one character, and that will rotate. So we'll have episodes about many characters beyond the original four. Which characters? Wait and see! Please "follow" me on Wattpad so you can part of my test audience as new episodes come out. Episodes will be posted here before published on Amazon. Please give me feedback and comments (you are all usually awesome at this!) so I can see how you are liking the serial and what you are hoping for. All the best! -Anita Valle
Heartless
My body trembled, but not from the cold. "You frighten me." His brow twitched, eyes darting around the features of my face. "Frighten, or excite?" His gaze dropped to my mouth. "Which is it, Miss Young?" ❆ Once upon a time in a dying village, there lived a girl who dreamed of a life free of fear and death. She yearned for a world not ruled by the darkness and the demons awaiting her inside it...

When Adaira's world comes crashing down around her and she finds herself on the outside of those very walls, Adaira comes face to face with the monster she's been cowering from all her life: A terrifying man named Beast.

Snow White and the Seven Souls
Snow White has always been recognized for her pale skin, her ruby lips, her hair as dark as a raven, and her sweet disposition. Behind this outward beauty lies a secret that only a few people even suspect. There was a reason beyond mere jealousy that motivated the new Queen to drive Snow White from the castle. Never fear, dear reader; a prince will find her. Oh, yes. But at what price? -- I wrote this as my first foray into the Wattpad world, in which I took up the challenge of #justwriteit and #altending. However I found that re-envisioning a classic tale such as Snow White made more sense to me than simply changing the ending. I did have an idea of where the story *could* have gone, and that is what I ended up writing. Hope you like it.Complete
