Have you ever seen shadows in the glass? A delay in your mirror? Have you ever written something off because it seemed too ludicrous or irrational?

What If I was to tell you...

That those feelings are echoes of ancestral knowledge...

Shades of suspicion, winding trails in dark forests that lead only to unwanted knowledge?

What if I was to tell you...

That all
Of it
Was real?

In Clever Reflections, Cinna and Salem are thrown into a parallel universe where everything is created by interpretation of individuals' perspectives, wants, wishes, and expectations. They must learn to navigate this dangerous new world and figure out some way to get back through the mirror. However, while they pass trials, dodge bullets, and daringly escape from tyrannical masterminds, they begin to wonder how different - and how alike - the two worlds actually are...

In Pieces by melissadyb

**Alice in Wonderland meets Aladdin with a twist in this coming of age story** Alaia has been listening to the voices around her family's castle all her life. Even though she hears everything, one peculiar word always slips her mind... A word her mom whispers every time she is alone in her bedroom. On her eighteenth birthday, Alaia finally remembers this silly word and whispers it three times in front of an antique mirror. Gio, Gio, Gio. Suddenly, the surface ripples like water. Alaia panics and breaks the mirror before she is pulled into a dark dimension. However, the glass surface isn't the only thing that's broken: Alaia's heart is shattered, and its pieces are scattered across three different reflection worlds. To return home, she must visit each realm and mend herself...with the help of a djinn. But Gio's help comes at a price. -----✨🧞‍♂️✨----- Complete ~27,000 words -----✨🧞‍♂️✨----- Featured in: YAFantasy - April 2023 WattpadUrbanFantasy - April 2023 StoriesUndiscovered - May 2023 WattpadESL - May 2023 Fantasy - August 2023 WattpadAlternateUniverse - August 2023

Bonds of Beast by T1g3r9

In a celestial realm with cloud-strewn vistas, God sits on bright white chair. He reclines, contemplating the vast expanse of worlds. But his attention is suddenly drawn to a flickering light-a tiny, radiant ruby in the sea of existence. Intrigued, He traces the soul of a woman whose essence has become this gem, only to find it shrouded in emptiness. So to pass the time he brings this soul closer to him inspecting it. To entertain himself he decides to see what can he do to make this light burn brighter instead of withering away. He began presenting the gem with boundless riches expecting a typical ease in happiness. But nothing happens. He presents a new life filled with lot glory, the ruby's light dims further. He than presents a life filled with fame. A slight flicker and than the ruby's flame is almost non existant. Inspired, God devises a plan. "Oh, soul ensnared in nothingness," He muses, "perhaps you will find purpose in a new world. Become your own guide." He scours the realms and selects a world-and the bright ruby starts burning ablaze with new vigor. "Ah I see, so these were your roots." He says in suprise. With a sinister smile he sends the ruby off into the strange new world. A savage and untamed realm where danger lurks in every shadow. In this primitive land, civilization has regressed; people barely understand survival beyond basic food production, and women are seen as mere background figures. Inanna's journey becomes one of survival, empowerment, and loss. She mourns loved ones taken from her in this brutal world, she finds new allies and potential mates who join her quest to explore the unknown. As she ventures deeper into the Beast World, she begins to challenge its stagnant, archaic views, proving that women are as capable of leading, fighting, and thriving as anyone. Unravel the mysteries of the Beast World. Discovers her own hidden strength, and reshape the rules of survival in this hostile and untamed land.

Shattered by AhsheyKadashi

No one is truly alone...especially where there are reflections. For the longest time, reflections have been a big part of people's lives. They're everywhere. In water, metals, windows, mirrors. Reflections have always been been there. Without them, people wouldn't know what they look like. But have you ever stopped to think that maybe, just maybe, there's another world? A world within those reflections. Others who try to live their lives but can't because of the bond they have with the people who don't even know they exist. Two worlds. One of the reflections and one of the reflected. One watches the other through mirrors. One woman, a single devoted mom in her early twenties, has only know this way of life since the day she was born, as does everyone else. She soon finds herself teaming up with her dear friend, a forced serial killer, to find a way to break this mysterious bond their world has with the reflected. They crave freedom for themselves and future generations and they are determined to reach that goal.

Evocation by raemelrose

"I promised myself the next time I saw you, I was claiming you. Your mouth-" he gazes at my lips while biting his own. "-your body.." he squeezes at my hips. His hands trail up and he wraps his thick fingers in my hair, pulling softly. "Watching you wasn't enough. I need to make you mine." ________________________________________________ *Evocation is a dark 18+ spicy MMFMMM Reverse Harem Pirate Story* Captain Echo is a young pirate who inherited her father's ship, "The Evocation."

A Pet for the Dragons by annablazer

❝Three dragons and their naughty little pet.❞ There's a rule in piracy - never fuck with the Dragons because they burn you alive. Literally. I'm not a fan of following rules, especially when the Dragons' hoarding obsession makes them the wealthiest patrons. I shouldn't be surprised when I'm kidnapped by the dragons upon failing to fulfil my end of an important deal. As if my luck couldn't be more of a bitch to me, I get kidnapped by none other than the three Dragons from one of the most powerful clans in the Arctic- Radrox, Ivret and Zorge. Now that they have me, I must pay for my failed deal in cash or kind. But that's not what they seem to be interested in, especially with the dwindling population of dragon ladies and their dangerous obsession with me. Those three dragons are definitely going to burn me but with a different kind of fire. ~ It can be read as a stand-alone book. Themes: slow burn, some BDSM, smut (loads of it), dirty talking, knotting, breeding, reverse harem, romance, kink exploration, action, world-building and a purely character-driven plot with wholesome and humorous moments :) What's not in the book? - Grape. Even though there's a power imbalance between the FL and the MLs, whatever happens between them and her involves consent. No cheating. The MLs don't do each other in this book.

Unmapped by thatowlet

Highest rank #73 in fantasy #18 in voodoo #79 in Philosophy There are times when everything around fades and the voice of the past starts dominating the times.

Atlantis Academy: The First Element by AutumnKalquist

Five Star Reviews for Atlantis Academy: "Omg this book was amazing I couldn't put it down or stop reading. I carried it with me open on my phone while I did everything just to keep reading. I need more of all of this. Epic story, epic content, epic visuals, just epic. LOVE THIS!" "Once I got into this story, I did not stop reading it. This is a beautiful story about a very awkward girl who is riven with so much pain and angst and yet... this makes her who she is and shapes her into the person she will become. The world she finds herself awakened to is magical and yet filled with the all-too-familiar cliques and tribes of the very human people who inhabit it. One word to describe the story: beautiful!" "The story pulls you headlong to the end and leaves you wanting to shout "No! Not yet!" ...If there were 6 stars, I would have given it that." *** Humanity is one secret society away from extinction. The children of Atlantis use magic to keep us safe. If they make it through the Academy. Hi, I'm Lyric. And I'm kind of a mess. ADHD, that's me. I'm a high school drop-out, late everywhere I go, and one screw-up away from being homeless. I'm a loner, and I like it that way. Who needs friends when you have a Redwood forest nearby? Trees never bully me like the kids did at school. Or get drunk and throw things at my head. After my mom died, I figured life couldn't get much worse. I thought it might even get better. Ha. The universe has a great sense of humor. I should've listened to the rumors about evil spirits. About the angry, ancient magical creatures haunting our small Oregon Coast town. But did I? No. That was my first mistake. And it might be my last. 'Cause now I'm in a battle for my life. A whole new world has opened up... a magical world I don't understand. And the blood in my veins says I belong here. But I have to prove myself to save myself. And when have I ever done that?
