FREE PREVIEW

It should have been a Dream Come True. Instead, everything was turning into a nightmare...

Bea is the talk of the town. She is the first fairy to ever be accepted to train at the prestigious Academy. Not only that, but thanks to her, the Mirrors are working again and the fae city of Ænathlin is enjoying a rare moment of prosperity. For once, life is good.

So when Bea arrives at the Academy she is determined to keep quiet, behave herself and not, absolutely not, get into any more trouble. But when things start going bump in the night, Bea just can't help investigating...

The Academy is the sequel to The Fairy's Tale, and picks up the story immediately after the events of that book. It brings back Bea, Melly, Joan, Ana, John and Mistasinon, among others, and introduces new characters and new villains. Written as a pastiche of the classic Victorian Gothic Horror novels, it explores what it really means to be haunted...

And now she's a...sorcerer in training? After a life-altering accident, fourteen-year-old Elaine Harwood finds herself standing at the gateway to a new world.

However, when her older brother is left unable to walk due to a brutal injury, she is granted the chance to take his place at Glyph Academy, the country's most prestigious magic-teaching institution. Now, all she needs to do is survive a school filled with lunatic teachers, unorthodox classes, and a homeroom crammed with talented yet half-baked nobles. A tall order, to be sure.

Fated by JaideHarley

****COMPLETED**** "You're driving me crazy," I growled, dropping my hand down to her waist then around to her lower back, sucking her earlobe into my mouth and dragging my teeth along it. She groaned and dropped her head back against the wall. Her sounds were intoxicating. I could smell how much she was responding to me and it brought my need for her out even more. I cupped her cheek and brought my lips over to hers, just barely brushing against them. "Addie," I whispered against her mouth, threading my hand through her hair. ... Addie has been abducted and thrown into the supernatural world. She discovers vampires have kidnapped her to manipulate an Alpha werewolf. Not just any werewolf, her mate. Or so the guy in the cell next to her says. Problem is, they've underestimated her because she's human. She's going to show them how much damage a human can do. Alpha Xander's past comes back to haunt him and his Beta has been missing for two days. Xander is finally contacted and offered a deal: his life for his Beta's and the mate he has yet to meet.

The Book of Miranda | gxg | ✔︎ by SmokeAndOranges

Desdemona ''Des'' Winchester wants nothing to do with Melliford Academy. In fact, she's pretty sure her parents shipped her off to boarding school just to get her out of their hair. It's a move they'll come to regret if she has any say in the matter. Nothing humiliates posh folk like having a daughter sent home from the country's most esteemed educational institution. Just flunking class isn't dramatic enough, though. Des plans to get booted in the most spectacular manner possible, just to make sure her parents' social circle will never let them live it down. Her scheming, unfortunately, encounters three roadblocks within the first week of class. The first: Exie Quinnell, teacher's pet, whip-smart, and unreasonably attractive. Neither girl intended to end up on a project together, but their teacher deemed Des in need of a little... remediation. The second: There are things about Melliford Academy that none of the teachers will talk about, even when pressed. Things that should be easy answers. The third: The first student found dead with a folded paper dove perched on their chest. ❖❖❖ Complete and fully edited. Comments and critiques are both welcome and appreciated.

A COURT OF SHIFTERS AND SECRETS by Mk1120

Finding out that your parents, the people that raised you your whole life, weren't your actual parents was hard. Being told at the ripe ol' age of eighteen that you're the last living member from an Ancient Shifter line, the one responsible for creating the First Shifters, was inconceivable. Especially when a group of assassins were on their way to exterminate me simply for just existing. Kidnapped from my bed by three extremely stunning and grumpy Alphas, and forced to attend a special Shifter University located in the middle of nowhere, I have to navigate an unfamiliar and unknown secreted world while simultaneously trying avoiding those who want to use my lineage to enact an age-old curse. Join Nova Nyx as she's dragged into a world full of Shifters, Secrets, and Startling Surprises. ~~~ "Mates?" I repeated owlishly, blinking rapidly at the one worded bomb they just dropped on me "What are Mates?" Instead of answering my question, they just stared back at me in silence, arms crossed over their broad chests. I ignored their silence, choosing to focus on second part of their sentence. "And you're telling me I have three of them?" I gawked "How many are you supposed to get? I can barely handle myself and my life at this point and you want me to worry about three other people?" Of course the most annoying man I've ever met smirked at my bafflement. "I don't think it'll be such a hardship for you" he said, arrogance lacing his tone "After all, I hear these three Mates of yours are very self-sufficient." "Don't forget extremely gorgeous" his Buffon of a friend chimed in, winking at me "That's a plus for you Princess." "One," the third one growled out at me, finally speaking up and adding subsistence to the conversation, startling the banter from the other two "You're only supposed to be blessed with one Mate in your entire lifetime."

Beneath The Blood Moon by ANnaMaratISrat

Claudia's life is crumbling apart. Claudia Marcellus has been alone ever since she was turned into a vampire- that was, until she met another vampiress named Thana. Slowly building her new life as a vampire up, with Thana along to guide her Claudia had formed a new purpose in life. That was, until Thana was murdered. Confused, broken, and trying to escape Thana's killer, who was now after her for unknown reasons, Claudia moves to the City of Briancon, where she meets Lupin, a werewolf man who seems awfully too familiar...and, by an odd twist of fate, attractive. Lupin is obsessed, and it's affecting his way of life. Being part of the pack meant absolute loyalty- but after a less than gracious meeting with a vampire girl, he finds his loyalty wavering. How can he be loyal when she consumes his every thought? Lupin follows her to Briancon, determined to learn more about this girl, and figure out how to rid himself of this undeniable attraction. Will Claudia ever avenge Thana's death, and find meaning in her life again? Will Lupin ever get back the life that was destined for him with his pack? Will the two of them learn to fight the growing attraction between them? This book was inspired by a short story I wrote in english. TW- Profanities, gore (sorta), angst, mentions of death, smut (probably- I'll warn you when a smut chapter comes up. Trust)

And now he's headed towards his worst nightmare, accompanied by a grumpy one-armed adult, a quippy spirit, a copperhead nerd, a sassy actor, a beagle, and a corpse. Welcome to his wacky world. Herein lies a hilarious, heartfelt, and first-hand account from Marra himself, ridden with characters to tickle your funnybone, witchraft to bewitch you, and loads of weird but laugh-out-loud stuff.

Into Your World (Complete ✔️) by Ryle_e10

I breathed him in again, feeling a weird sensation in my chest. "I always thought if you were ink on paper, you'd smell like ink or paper," I looked him in his face and added, "But you smell like human. I'm highly disappointed." He looked down at me. Smirked. His beautiful green eyes holding a mix of mischief and warmth. "Oh, don't be sad, love," he said, "I may not smell like ink or paper, but I'm certain I taste like them. If you don't believe me..." He paused in his tracks, his face leaning slightly closer to mine, "Kiss me."
