Matias only really likes one person, his witch, Eve. So when she goes missing one day he's determined to find her. Even if that means putting up with the annoying crow of hers. But there's only one problem, Matias has no clue where to start. Logical, the only right thing to do is blame the girl who's always hanging out around their cottage. 

Selene has been told to be scared of the witch that lives at the edge of town, and she is. Or at least she thinks she is. The witch is the only one who really stirs something in her gut, and it has to be fear, right? 
When a cat and a crow come to ask her to help them find the witch she's hesitant. How could she possibly be able to find her? But when no one else in town seems to be searching and the cat seems almost desperate she decides to help. 

How hard can it be to find someone who disappeared without leaving anything behind?

The Book of Trials || ONC 2019 by Kehanni

When Veia Phelde is cursed, she hardly expects the ruin it will invoke, but will breaking the curse come at a cost more than its worth in blood? +++ Veia Phelde had been satisfied with her life in her small cottage in the woods, never bothering anyone save for her job as a blacksmith's apprentice. But when she loses her job, Veia is forced out of her comfort zone only to run into a simple book that means so much more than she wants it to. With blank white pages and a title carved by knife, the single word that scars the leather can only be the work of fate, and the danger it contains... well, let's just say that's fate, too. When a devilishly handsome traveler offers to take her to the City of Magic to break the curse, Veia finds herself hopelessly entangled in a danger more powerful than she could ever know. +++ ~ Featured Wattpad Picks: Hidden Gem (May 2020) ~ @StoriesUndiscovered Diamond list (2019) ~ 2nd place in action/adventure, Coral Awards 2021 ~ 2nd place in action/adventure, The Pantheon Awards 2020 ~ 3rd place in adventure, The Blue Rose Awards, August 2019 ~ Written for the Open Novella Contest 2019, gen fic open prompt (since expanded; 45k word count) ~ Also available on Inkitt, Prose, Sweek, and Quotev (but Wattpad has the best version) ;) Beautiful cover by @TheFashionPixie

When Bryony -- herbalist extraordinaire -- goes missing, Bella knows one suspect stands above the rest. The village's aspiring second witch, Daphne, comes from a family that's tried to take Bryony down before, and Daphne seems determined to carry on that legacy. For someone who's always been terrified of Bryony, she's a little too keen on looking into the disappearance. There's just one problem. Bella's insufferable fellow familiar thinks the kid is innocent... and he's been right about worse things before. If Daphne herself is to be believed, clues on the disappearance lead a whole lot closer to home than Bella would like. As the evidence mounts, Bella must choose to either stand by her values and the woman who raised her, or seek what might be a truth she would rather not uncover. Prompt #81: The town's witch has gone missing and no one is looking for her but her two familiars - a crow and a black cat, plus the teen who has always been scared of her. ❖❖❖ Written for Wattpad's 2024 Open Novella Contest.

The Golden Dragon's Hoard by STESLARA

Astraeus, a baby dragon, escapes from his old coven and stumbles upon a little shop that he spends months stealing from and hiding in to survive. The witch and familiars who live there are... strange. They know he takes from them but don't put up different wards, don't do things that could hurt him. They know that he has a hide out in the aster tree, that he lives close-instead of getting rid of him and forcing him to move, they visit him. Talk to him, leave him things, they're kind. Different. Stranger than any other witch or familiar he's ever met. Stray is not used to things that don't hurt. The gentleness is terrifying. He'd rather stay away from them than learn why they don't have sharp tongues or bruised knuckles. However, on the night of a bad storm, he gets trapped inside of the shop, trapped with kind strangers. After getting caught, he discovers another dragon. He learns that life is not meant to be painful. He learns that he can be loved. He's allowed to want things with them. To eat, to not fear the cold, to live instead of survive. Everything changes and Stray is determined to make them his hoard, to make it complete.

But life is never that simple and as Minta grapples with her future, there are others trying to stop her from having one. But who and why? Minta hasn't a clue. Though she does have her suspicions about the cat... Eventually, sacrificing her own (and very human) desires to follow her path, Minta's destiny becomes clear; this is a story of self-belief and resolution, first crushes & love (and the journey towards grasping the difference).

The Prophecy Of The Black Day by MenteMelan

Haunted by the evil queen of Rodia, Selene Feather's early life on earth was constantly filled with tragedy. At age 8, she watched her mother get brutally murdered and thus lost all the memories of her magical background prior to that day.

Unfortunately, her joy was short-lived. Constantly tormented by recurring nightmares, fleeting memories of her mother's death, and the overwhelming chemistry she had with her boyfriend's hot stepbrother, Benjamin, Selene felt like she couldn't catch a break. To make matters worse, she finds herself falling behind in the writing camp due to her inexplicable desire to be insignificant. With an evil queen desperately trying to find her, bizarre writing challenges she can never seem to finish and peculiar incidences that keep happening to her, would Selene ever be able to discover why she is so desperate to be unremarkable?

Witchbound 1 by ELKrraz

In a small, seemingly ordinary town, Selene has always felt like she's just another face in the crowd. Her life revolves around the typical high school experiences-hanging out with friends, navigating the ups and downs of teenage life, and managing the constant buzz of schoolwork and daily routines. To the outside world, it's a life like any other, filled with the usual moments of frustration and joy. Yet, beneath the surface of this mundane existence lies a hidden world, one that Selene never could have imagined. Magic, mystical creatures, and ancient forces have quietly coexisted with her reality, just out of sight. It's a world governed by secrets, where the extraordinary is concealed by the normal. When Selene's life unexpectedly takes a turn, she is drawn to Eldermyst Academy, an ancient, secluded institution that holds the key to her true potential. The academy is a place far removed from her small-town life, a place where the supernatural is a part of everyday existence. Here, Selene begins to uncover her own latent powers, powers that have been dormant for years. The stark contrast between her once predictable world and the strange, mystical realm she enters becomes the foundation for her transformation. As she explores secret locations, encounters creatures beyond imagination, and navigates the complexities of magical realms, Selene begins to realize that her journey isn't just about surviving the chaos of two worlds colliding-it's about mastering the forces within herself, understanding the legacy that runs through her veins, and coming to terms with the power she holds. Each challenge she faces, each discovery she makes, takes her further away from the life she knew, and closer to a destiny that was always waiting for her.
