** SEQUEL TO A TOUCH OF DARKNESS **

Nathaniel used to be a curse. Now, with friends by his side and a sword in his hand, he can finally do more than destroy.

Yet his flame's absence is no blessing. Coping with the pain it leaves behind grows more difficult with each passing day. The enemy kingdom of Neyaibet holds the key to his power's release, and while he's determined not to fall into their game, he cannot live this way forever.

In an effort to both protect the last fragments of Oscensi and unlock the binds trapping his flame, Nathan and his friends seek sanctuary in the very place where the darkness inside him was born. As long-hidden secrets surge from the depths of his past, one fact remains.

Fire doesn't like to be caged. And when it breaks free, there will be no stopping its raging path.

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.

Shadows in the Glass by Ivy_Morel
14 parts Ongoing Mature
Pretty Little Horrors Series - Dreamwalker Saga Book 1 - Shadows in the Glass Aurelia has always been haunted by her dreams-vivid, twisted nightmares that blur the line between fantasy and reality. But when the shadows from her dreams start creeping into the waking world, she realizes she's not just dreaming. She's being hunted. Thrown into a world of dark seduction and dangerous prophecy, Aurelia finds herself torn between two powerful beings: Raphael, the dangerously possessive royal who treats her like both a prize and a queen, and Maelis, the seductive trickster who invades her dreams with promises of power and pleasure. But nothing in this world is as it seems. The Council has sinister plans for her-plans that involve more than just her dreams. As Aurelia's powers awaken, so does the primal hunger that burns between her and Raphael. His touch is fire and danger, yet every instinct in her body craves more. But the deeper she falls into his world, the more she realizes that love may not be enough to save her from the fate the Council has planned. Caught in a deadly game of shadows, lies, and seduction, Aurelia must uncover the truth of her past and her power before her body-and her heart-are claimed by forces darker than any nightmare she's ever faced. In a world where love and danger blur into obsession, will Aurelia find the strength to fight for her freedom, or will she become a pawn in the hands of those who seek to possess her?

❖ QUEENKILLER, KINGMAKER Book 1 ❖ Feudal Southeast-Asia filled with magic, daemons, and a royal conspiracy. This is Isla's quest for the truth, and her slow spiral into becoming her very own worst nightmare. When the gods ascended thousands of years ago, they left behind the divine gift of theurgy. Its powers still echo amongst men, but run fiercer yet in the blood of kings and queens. And one of them will stop at nothing before Isla is dead. A betrayal lures her out of refuge and into her journey home, where she must unmask her enemies before they unmask her. The theurgy that she has had to keep hidden for many years can be her greatest ally or her most lethal foil. Only her wits can guide her through the dangerous politics of the Surikh court. But amidst the plots and schemes bubbling around her, she uncovers something far more sinister than the identity of her enemies. Something that can change her entire life; indeed, entire kingdoms. ↝ this work contains violence, profanity, and sexual references ↜ ↝ Winner of Wattys 2016 HQ Love Award ↝ Winner of FANTASCI's first Chosen One ↝ Winner of The Cryptic Awards 2018 ↝ Featured in Fantasy as of 18-01-2017 ↝ Wattpad Editor's Pick January 2021
