Summary
Special thanks to @JOdel_from_AOL for looking this over and giving feedback! It's a pleasure to correspond with you.
From a former dueling prodigy to a homeless girl on the run, Polaris Le Fay’s life felt anything but fortunate. With her funds dwindling, she’s faced with some difficult options. But when she reads that her father, notorious mass murderer Sirius Black, has escaped prison, her trajectory takes a different turn. Throwing herself on the mercy of the only person in her old handler’s contacts, Severus Snape, she’s sent to live with her dark-arts-loving cousins and attend Hogwarts.
Consigned to being trapped in a cold, desolate mansion, and later in a castle with austere rules while her father is on the loose, she wonders if it would’ve been better to take her chances. However, her outlook changes when she finds a pensieve buried deep in her old handler’s things – a pensieve that sets Polaris on a case that could change everything.
DISCLAIMER: I neither support nor condone JK Rowling's actions towards the trans community.

Then he’s delivered to Jeon Jungkook—the Bastard Alpha, feared across the lands for his cruelty and his hunger for power. But when their eyes meet, the bond doesn’t just spark…it ignites.
Now Taehyung is trapped in more than a cage. Bound by fate to the one Alpha ruthless enough to keep him, even if it means dying for him.

Summary
The gods are not dead, they still linger around.
Once divine, now bloated and rotting on their thrones beyond the veil, they feast on the fear of empires, the prayers of the conquered, and the suffering of the forgotten. It was they who stole his eye. It was they who cursed the world. And it was they who failed to kill him.
Now, he rises—no longer a victim, but something darker.
A boy forged in betrayal, baptized in blood, and marked by forces even the Old Gods fear. From the ashes of his torment, Tetanus emerges: a savage blade in the darkness, a whisper in the nightmares of kings and priests, from a childhood marked by betrayal and abuse, now growing into an antihero seeking revenge.

Summary
(This is a portuguese translation of my original work 'Anti-God')
Os deuses não estão mortos, eles ainda perambulam.Outrora divinos, agora inchados e apodrecendo em seus tronos além do véu, eles se banqueteiam com o medo dos impérios, as preces dos conquistados e o sofrimento dos esquecidos. Foram eles que roubaram seu olho. Foram eles que amaldiçoaram o mundo. E foram eles que falharam em matá-lo.
Agora, ele se ergue—não mais uma vítima, mas algo mais sombrio.
Um menino forjado na traição, batizado em sangue e marcado por forças que até os Deuses Antigos temem. Das cinzas de seu tormento, Tétano emerge: uma lâmina selvagem na escuridão, um sussurro nos pesadelos de reis e sacerdotes, de uma infância marcada por traição e abuso, agora se tornando um anti-herói em busca de vingança.

As she becomes entangled in their world of secrets and sin, her sharp mind and unexpected compassion begin to leave a mark — not just on the living, but the damned as well. But as cases grow darker and bonds deepen, she must face a terrifying question: what if going home means losing the only souls who genuinely see her?

Summary
In a land where power lies in the blood, inheritance is everything. Temerit has been ruled for a thousand years by seven High Houses, which pass down divine talents from parent to child. Urien Lowe, heir to the House of Blood, has been poised since birth to step into this legacy. But all systems of power lie on a knife's edge, and a secret corruption is spreading from the heart of Temerit. When his life, friends, lands, and lineage are threatened with devastation, Urien must give every last part of himself to the cause of bloody revolt and securing his bloodline.
A dark fantasy story with horned beasts, self-destruction, magicians, a spiral into violence, swearing, a pregnant trans guy, overindulgence in semicolons, weird sex, elaborate metaphors, run-on sentences, too many fantasy titles, fucked-up blood magic, and no romance whatsoever. Characters include a trans guy with anger issues, what happens when you force an autistic closeted transfem into a fantasy kingdom, a foul-mouthed nonbinary magician, and a terminally optimistic knight. Come for the mpreg, stay for the vague horror at the mpreg guy's descent into violent revenge.

Summary
Since the beginning of Avalon, the Knights of the Round have served Kamelot. Unfortunately, they are no longer the beacon of hope they once were. Tarnished by the growing corruption in Kamelot, they are nothing more than figureheads of everything wrong in the lands. The newest Lancelot, Esyllt Lace, finds herself wanting to bring about change. Yet, her pleas are disregarded as the world crumbles around them.
One night, bathed in ale and spite, Esyllt meets an errant figure hiding from someone--or something. He is carrying a lot of secrets, and he knows more about the problems that plague Avalon than Esyllt. They drunkenly make a pact to save Avalon and seal it with a kiss.
The next morning, Ser Gawain of the Round Table is found dead, and the blood seems to be on Esyllt's lover's hands. She is tasked with avenging her fellow knight--like a quest of old. Yet, unlike those gallant tales, this one is threatening to spiral into the end of Avalon. And worse yet, Esyllt is not allowed to forget the part she played in the beginning of the end as new life sprouts within her, tainted by the wyrdness encompassing them all.
