Amara has been subjected to a life of pain. First, the death of her mother and only surviving family, and then becoming trapped with an abusive, alcoholic husband. She finally manages to escape, falling into a world of magic and adventure that she never knew existed. Will she embrace her destiny and fight for her new life, or will everything be taken away from her once more?

"After what seems like hours, the ships dock on our shores, and I spur Ormr into a dive. As men rush the shores, we coast above the ships, letting them see us for the first time. Many men freeze in their steps, while others attempt to ignore us, and continue charging. Once we're low enough, I whisper to Ormr, "Burn it all, girl," and flames pour from her mouth, devouring the ships below us. Let's see them leave now."

Bonds of Beast by T1g3r9

Trapped in a world ruled by primal instincts and unyielding survival, Innana, a fragile human woman, finds herself thrust into the untamed domain of beastmen-powerful, animalistic beings who dominate the remnants of a post-cataclysmic Earth. Innana's humanity makes her both a vulnerability and a rare treasure in this savage world. Her presence begins to unravel bonds of loyalty, jealousy, and unexpected devotion among the beastmen she encounters. The wild itself seems to test her resolve, revealing the depths of her resilience and forcing her to confront the possibility that her value lies not in her beauty, but in her strength of spirit. But the beast world is not kind, and Innana quickly learns that her survival may depend on forming connections with those who view her as more than prey or prize. As alliances form and rivalries simmer, Innana becomes the unwitting heart of a growing circle of protectors-each bound to her by instinct, admiration, or something far deeper. Bonds of Beast explores the fragile line between survival and surrender, the complexities of loyalty, and the untamed bonds that form when worlds collide. In a land where dominance rules and instincts reign, Innana's journey is not just about staying alive-it's about discovering her place in a world where even beasts can love.

The Orc's Consort: Book One by EM-Albright

I could see him grinning out of the corner of my eye. He was enjoying this far too much. "Just do not ever scare me like that again, Jasper," I fussed. He winced as I moved the cloth across his ribs. "Or what," he toyed. I stopped and glared at him. I stammered, trying to think of something clever. "I- I'll. I don't know, but I'll think of something." Before I knew what was happening, Jasper got his arm around my waist and pulled me into the tub with a splash. "Jasper," I managed to gasp. In a world where humans and orcs have raged war with each other for hundreds of years, 22-year-old Lady Brenna of Blackwater Hold was sent away to the Northern Orruk horde, something that was unheard of. Her father, King Corvus, pledged her to the chief of the Northern Orruk Horde, Jasper Bloodborne, to save his own skin. She could not understand how her father could trade her away to these beasts. Were they beasts? Her father taught her to believe this, but she would learn she had severely misjudged them. She would find more than just her new place in the Northern Orruk Mountains.

Fate and Destiny (The Fated Series, #2) by _Hiraeth_Author_

{{CURRENTLY UNDERGOING EDITING}} A kingdom across the sea, a man in pain clawing at a hated king who bears two shadows who protect him. A child, born from a mother with the powers of the Gods, screaming at a blood-soaked bed. A boy, a Prince, kind and full of the flame of life, sitting beneath a moon bug lit sky. Darkness enfolds the lands, its grasp claiming the continent and making its way from an already broken island, only to be stopped by the hands of fate. The hands of the girl and the Prince, and their love for the people in need of protection. This is their prophecy. This is their destiny and their fate depends on it. The Elemental rulers and their family are just beginning to find allies from unlikely and unimaginative places while creatures of myth and legend resurface from their campfire tales, and things aren't going as planned, so they'll have to find myths and legends of their own. Shouldn't be too hard. #6 - #strong-heroine #41 - #banter **Average Word Count Per Chapter: 8,000 **Edited (x1) LET ME KNOW IF YOU SPOT GRAMMAR ISSUES!

ALWAYS YOU by lieveliveslife

"All the dreams I've envisioned for us will come true; the only difference is that I won't be in any of them." Amara had faced unimaginable loss, scarred by witnessing her parents perish in flames at just three years old. Her world was shattered in a single night, leaving her alone in a cruel reality. However, fate had not entirely abandoned her. The Rajvansh family, led by her father's best friend, took her in and raised her as one of their own, providing her with a loving home despite the pain that lingered in her heart. Years passed, and Amara found solace within the Rajvansh household, though the memories of her tragic past never fully faded. As she reached adulthood, life forced her into a pivotal decision-marriage. Ayaan Rajvansh, her childhood confidant and boyfriend, seemed the perfect choice, and the Rajvansh family celebrated the impending union. Yet, not everyone shared in the joy. Amara's decision crushed Abhimaan Rajvansh, the elder son of the family. Despite his immense power, wealth, and control over the AA Group of Industries, he was helpless in the face of his own heartache. For eighteen years, Amara had unknowingly held sway over every aspect of his being. She was his world, his obsession, his torment. The question now loomed: was this truly the end of Abhimaan's unrequited love? Would he stand aside as Amara became another man's wife, or would the darkness within him take over, driving him to claim her, no matter the cost? Abhimaan: "I am terrified that I might destroy you..." Amara: "Then destroy me, please..."

Fate of the Blessed by Artemis-C

Cold, terrified and alone, Amara wakes up in a city she's never been to before. She has no recollection of how she got here. The city is desolate. No crowds, no commotion, not even a mouse stirs. Where is everybody? How did she get here? Why is she here? As she navigates through the unfamiliar territory, it soon becomes clear that she is in danger as an evil looks to claim her soul. To find her way home, she must fight an ancient entity. Can she find the strength within to succeed?

10 Years by Wifey0980

10 Years ago my life changed, I was 18, young, stupid and selfish. I thought I was doing the right thing, convinced myself everything I did I was doing for the boy who owned my heart, the boy I loved - so I ran as far as I could go, without explanation to my friends and in spite of my family I fled the only home I had ever known, left behind the only people that had ever cared about me, but I needed an escape. I know you heard me Amara, Is she, Is Lily, Mine?" "Asher" I whispered, taking a further step out onto the balcony, I closed the door behind me "No Amara, She looks like me, so just tell me the truth ok, she is my fucking daughter isn't she" "Yes" I let the words fall out of my mouth "Yes Asher, She is yours" "What the fuck Amara" His voice was loud, his face twisted in anger,

Captive Of The Count by ofbrowsandcake

"We are enemies." "That doesn't stop me from possessing you." He breathed and every word he whispered later on sent chills down my spine, "You are mine, Amara. From the pale blonde strands of your hair to your faded nail-polished toes. Every breath you take is mine. Not excluding the freckles dusting your cheeks to the pimples on your face. Your misery is mine, which I shall bring upon you myself. From your giggles to your random nonsensical chatter, I own them! Your darn strawberry moments are mine. Every drop of blood that flows through your veins belongs to me and so does your last breath when I snuff life out of you, watching as your pretty green eyes lose their shine and your heartbeat goes dull beneath my palm." His hand traveled to my neck, fingers lacing around it, and he squeezed a bit, "Who do you belong to?" He asked capturing my ear lobe between his lips and I shivered. "Myself and you can't have me!" I swung my head back and crashed it against his, sending him reeling backward. I wonder if he always forgets that we can fight like equals, "I will be the one snuffing life out of you." **************** You have got to let your loved ones know what's happening with you' Amara snow Dardanos learns this the hard way when her perfect world is crushed by a secret she kept away from her family. Orian Wolfe Akanther, one of the leaders of the underworld is given the task of taking the werewolf princess as vengeance for the injustice and treachery done to his kind.
