2025 WSA Entry Grace was born and bred to be royalty. From an early age she was taught the importance of sacrifice for her family so that they succeeded, were stronger, better connected, and forever ambitious. She knew that she was a commodity for her family and that she would be exchanged for the best deal for the family. So when the old king of the kingdom of Lystra indicated that he wanted Grace to marry his son, Gabriel, her father jumped at the chance. And since it was for her family she readily agreed. Grace was not a loving wife or a good wife. She was a responsible wife. She never showed Gabriel love because she was never taught that this was something needed. Thusly she did what she had been taught to do. When the old king died a year after their marriage Grace managed the kingdom. When Gabriel went to war six months after that she continued to manage and improve the kingdom, even at eight months pregnant. So imagine her surprise when her husband returned from war three years later with a beautiful, young new wife. Now she is being put out of the only home she has known for the past four years and she has to endure being used again because divorce is not possible when you are loved by the people. She is not bitter because she blames herself. She learned, while her husband was away that love is a tangible thing and is needed to validate a union. But they were royals could such a thing be true for then as well? But when is enough, enough? How long will she be able to endure the jealousy of the new queen and decide it all should have remained hers in the first place? Will she want revenge when she believed she was at fault or would she want revenge because he never really tried either? In the end it will be about the people who showed her love and who she began to love unconditionally. --------- Okay now give this one a chance before you go judging or you stop reading because it is not like the other romances on the app. I entered this one in the recommended trops contest so blame the webnovel editord for the storyline and plot (kinda but not really) just give it a chance and see how much you love it.

Once a noble, now nothing more than a number among the damned. Yet, something was different. There was a reason he was still alive.

Seven thousand years later, she became the Goddess of Darkness, and crowned as the queen of the United Empires of Darkness. She reigned over the United Empires of Darkness, which composed of Devil Empire, Vampire Empire, Werewolf Empire, Snake People Empire, and Dragon Island. She created the strongest army, which composed of seven royal guard regiments, dragon knight army, phoenix knight army, vampire army, werewolf army, snake people army, and dragon army. She blessed her soldiers with superpowers, and her soldiers returned her with loyalty and respect. She hosted eleven fun contests after Christmas, which were Red Wine Brewing Contest, Music Contest, Dancing Contest, Ghost Storytelling Contest, Talent Show Contest, Costume Design Contest, Cooking Contest, Dragon Riding Contest, Horror Storytelling Contest, Romance Storytelling Contest and Fantasy Storytelling Contest. She hosted resurrection ceremonies in Heaven Company for six days, threw thirty chosen souls into another world, and entered another world on her own in the last day, in search of the better self. When she came to her destiny's crossroads, she chose the path not taken, and wondered how things might have been different.

Power is a heavy crown, and Titania—the superhuman Iron Queen of St. Petersburg—wears it with grace and fury. But the girl behind the mask? She's a neurotic mess having the worst week of her life. Roxanna Paraveesh Shapiro thought she could handle it. Moving to college. Losing the only friends she had. Balancing duty with the small hope of something resembling a normal life. Then Dianna Rodgers happened—chaotic, magnetic, utterly infuriating. A punk-rock wildcard with no powers, no fear, and no clue what she’s about to fall into. Faith, love, power, and pain collide in a world where miracles wear body armor, and salvation may come on high, but is delivered by the girl who refuses to let go. When the world expects a weapon, what happens when you give them a heart instead?

This story began long ago, in a timeline no one can reach. A forgotten heir. A fallen prince. An adopted noble. A person seen as both a threat and a blessing. This is the story of a withered rose—its beauty lasting even as it fades. It’s a tale of power and deception, where every move is part of a larger gambit. The events of this age shift the foundations of civilization itself. In this delicate balance between salvation and destruction, what is good and what is necessary are often unclear. Abyssals. Primordials. Existentials. Everyone tried to stop it—but it was inevitable. The prince’s gambit has already been played. This is the quiet unfolding of a future no one can stop. The gambit begins now.

“You are not worthy of being my mate.” Those seven words shattered Freya Evergreen’s soul. On the night of her 18th birthday, when her mate bond awakens, Alpha Kael—the cold, ruthless leader of the Moonlight Pack—rejects her in front of everyone. The humiliation, the pain, and the betrayal become a scar burned deep into her heart. Freya disappears into the shadows of the forest, presumed dead… but fate has far greater plans for her. Five years later, Freya returns—not as the weak girl they cast aside, but as the mysterious, powerful Queen of a forgotten bloodline. A Luna of ancient royalty. A warrior of unmatched strength. And the ruler of her own kingdom. When a looming war forces her back to the pack that once destroyed her, Freya stands before Kael again—only this time, she doesn’t bow. She commands. Now, Kael wants her back. The same Alpha who once broke her is desperate to win her trust, her forgiveness… and her heart. But queens do not forget. And Freya didn’t come back for love—she came for vengeance. Love battles pride. Power tests loyalty. And when destiny calls, Freya must decide: Will she destroy the pack that broke her? Or rise above it and claim the throne fate always meant for her?

In the kingdom of Faelori, where pure-blooded fae have driven humans to near extinction, Faelyn lives as the most despised creature of all—a half-blood abomination born from her human slave mother and the Fae King’s moment of weakness. She has endured relentless torture, starvation, and humiliation. Servants beat her bloody for sport. Her own half-brothers force her to crawl like a dog for their amusement. Even the kitchen scraps are denied to her as she wastes away in the shadows of the very castle where she was born. But when half-blood meets dragon fire, when the weakest collides with the strongest, when hatred burns into something far more dangerous… Some bonds are forged in blood and cannot be broken. In a world where power determines worth and bloodlines decide fate, two souls—one broken, one caged—will either destroy each other completely… or burn the entire kingdom to ash.

A human girl.A Demon King and one unlikely fate.

After grueling years, Queen Feria Avelia Nightreign finally finishes setting up advanced foundational systems for her kingdom that would make their kingdom function more smoothly, and yet rather than being grateful and joyful, she feels extremely annoyed that her trusted advisors are endlessly trying to convince her to marry already. “I finally have some time to spare for fun, and yet you *guys* want me to waste it on marriage interviews?” Queen Feria glares at her advisors, “nope, not gonna happen.” “Your Majesty you aren’t young anymore, actually you’re about to be in your thirties in just a couple of years. And thirty is quite old to be single your highness.” Finneas tells Queen Feria bluntly. “So? What if I’m old? I still look young and beautiful,” Queen Feria proudly declares, “and of course I’ll still be fit and lithe even after two years and even years after that (all hail my royal pedigree!) so you shouldn’t worry about me getting married, Finneas. It’s more likely you guys just want me to marry so I can finally sympathize with you all and your troubles of not meeting their significant other because of noble duties.” Queen smirks as she sharply looks at her advisors one by one. *coughs* “That’s not true at all your highness!" Hugh, another trusted advisor, blurts out. “Right, Feel our pain, your Highness!” George nods as he agrees. While Finneas just silently meets Queen Feria’s glare. Queen Feria continues to glare at her advisors while they stay quiet yet firmly meets her gaze. The silence then is broken by a knock on the door. “Sister, can I come in?” Albert Fennia Nightreign asks. Upon hearing her brother’s voice, Queen Feria is struck by an idea. With a sly smile, she says, “Come in Al, you’re just in time, thanks to you I just came up with another brilliant plan of mine~” Hugh, George, and Finneas, baffled by the queen’s sudden change of mood, look at each other as Albert comes in. “You have another plan to do, Sister? But I thought you are free right now?” Albert looks at his sister with his eyes shining with curiosity. “Yes, my dear Brother. Just now I came up with a brilliant plan that would ease those fools over there while still having some fun, heh heh, Hah Hah!~” Finneas adjusts his glasses, which is a habit whenever he feels uneasy, while both Hugh and George shiver from a sudden cold feeling. Albert with a confused face looks back and forth between his laughing sister and her advisors. It turns out that Queen Feria’s plan was to enroll in the prestigious Academy of Escarton, to find a suitable marriage partner while crossdressing and impersonating her brother. Queen Feria was even able to recruit her brother to play the part of her personal servant. It was already too late when her advisors found out this true plan of hers. So, they regrettably lament for all the poor innocent souls that their queen will corrupt.

800,000 years ago, the world burned in the war between gods and demons. At its center stood two beings—Leonhardt, the King of Gods, and Aetheria, the Female Demon Emperor.

Aetheria Nyx Lunaris Solis, daughter of the Sun God and the feared Queen of the Moon and Stars, walks the divine realm as the most powerful demigod.

Ahn Ji-Ho, a nineteen year old girl is on a journey to find a new home amidst her world's calamity when she stumbles upon a mysterious and beautiful woman. Zhou Meihua, a beautiful yet inept girl saves Ji-Ho from certain death, capturing her heart in an instant. The two converse, and Ji-Ho is invited to forever stay by her side. Yet, a promise is shattered when the mysterious calamity known as the Decay swallows their personages whole, removing their memory from the face of the ruined Earth. Waking up in a new world beside Mei, Ji-Ho discovers she has gained incredible and unknown power. Ji-Ho finds herself in a completely different world with a beautiful girl she barely knows, one where god-like power is completely feasible. --- A bird perched on a branch whistled a short and quiet tune under the waving wind as Ahn Ji-Ho sat under a tree, holding a smooth grey stone. [Alchemic Exchange has been activated.] The stone in her palm glimmered and then ran away in a flash of bright light, disappearing and leaving a piece of quartz in its place. She set the the quartz down beside her, and watched as another small wound opened up on her wrist, letting her blood flow towards the soil. [Alchemic Compensation has been received.] It seemed that the baseline payment for an exchange was Ji-Ho own body, specifically her blood. She did not yet know if she was able to exchange anything other than that. Ji-Ho glanced over at the items beside her, each sowed from multiple stones, brought to this world with her own blood. A stone shaped like a bird, a ball of cotton, a piece of quartz, and a peridot gemstone sat perfectly still next to her in frozen and obtuse scarcity of time; a painting of strange still-life itself. She had tested the limits of the ability, and had so far found out that she could mold substances, exchange them for something similar, something valuable, or obtain something entirely new. Each exchange brought about different costs, each measured in her own body's resources. By all instances of thought that she had conjured up, she had come to the conclusion that she had been transported to another world - one where such power was possible. However, she felt that now she was farther from home than ever. --- TQoN Art by @Qonnnarts
