Fantasy, Elves, Magic, Adventure
Needs a cover....
It's simple, but not enough....
The begging was really good, but once you got to 'Suddenly, two blonde human girls...' that's when it get's messy. It seemed in the first part you established most humans are afraid of elves and don't know the elves language. As well as you didn't state if Rin knows English.
What do you mean 'The girl under Rin's control'? Rin can control people by looking at them in the eye? If so don't forget to state that.
What is an aura?
I feel like there is a lot of information the reader is missing.
Did Rin know something was wrong? Say sooner the reason for their visit. Also why is the twins and Lance not with their mother, back at Rin's kingdom?
How did Rin feel after the man called the woman his. Give Rin a reason to kill him. When did the kids learn to fight?
WOAH!WOAH!WOAH!!! STOP!!!! When did they become an item!!!!!????

I give a two because there is a lot, a LOT that needs fixing. I really like the concept of the story, but it just seems all over the place. Your prologue isn't actually a prologue since chapter 1 kicks back to where it ended. Unless like I stated you put in your chapter 1 'Years later' or something. As I said above there is a lot of info missing. It might be due to writing it in third person. Have you thought of first? If it's because you want multiple POVs then put their name on the chapter. If you need a cover go to Clubs-Mutli Media. If you don't like your summary; I'm pretty sure there are people here that will help. I am also willing to help. I think I write some really good summaries. Most of my questions are above. I also wrote some suggestions in the comments within your story. I can see this story has some potential. Remember this is a book, not a movie or tv show. You can't skip info and skip around freely. Keep writing.

The Ruins of Magincia
They say all things end in time, but the exalted City of Magi would’ve begged to differ. Yet when an attempted coup goes wrong, the city finds itself brought to the very brink of destruction. In the wake of the calamity that left no survivors, the autonomous infrastructure still operating the ruined city seeks to restore what was lost. Luckily for it, the Mana-devoid Universe it awoke in holds an unexpected surprise: a planet full of sentient life forms. All capable—with a little help—to become the next generation of Magi. Back on Earth, Millie McArthur is a pregnant out-of-work mechanic struggling with the prospect of moving back in with her parents after leaving her unfaithful fiancé. That is until she finds herself just one of the hundreds that have been shanghaied by the callous artificial constructs still manning the ruins of Magincia. Now, she must struggle to learn magic, compete for resources, get good 'grades,' and fulfill the seemingly arbitrary requirements for her future job in this broken city. All while keeping herself, and her son, alive. Is the miracle of magic really enough to make up for all the pain? The Ruins of Magincia is a dark fantasy that's heavy on the drama (LitRPG aspects are very light). Chapter lengths can be anywhere from 7k-12k and there's no current release schedule as I'm focusing on wrapping up volume one.

Elysium Online
After the economic and agricultural disasters of the twenty-second century people migrated in droves to city centers. Now almost ninety percent of the world's population lives in high rise buildings located in large cities. This move has forced the world's population to find space in the virtual world.People work, play, and live online. Robert finds escape from his difficult life working a dead end job and caring for his sick mother online. When a ground breaking new virtual game is announced for a limited number of people who can afford the price tag Robert knows he will miss out. Or will he? This is a work in progress that is posted here and on Royal Road. My goal is to publish 8 chapters a month, but I reserve the right to adjust that schedule due to financial and time issues. My Patreon supporters get access to the chapters prior to them being provided here for free.

The wish trials
The God of reincarnation has brought to many idiots back to life with ridiculous wishes and the high council is sick of it messing up their worlds. So a new God was brought in. One that actually made people earn their new lives. But the actions of this unknown deity cause a boy's life to spiral out of control. After a tragic incident, the boy meets the diety where he requests to be able to fly. To accommodate this desire he allows the Boy to complete his task in the body of a random bird. There's only one problem, this bird cant fly. Follow the voices in the boy's head as he struggles to survive and grow stronger so he can get the life he always wanted. Criticism would be great. I also have heavy dyslexia along with some other metal 'uniqueness' so this whole story is a big F you to it but I am sorry for any and all inevitable mistakes.

Just My Type
"Never Fall for a Bad Boy." That's what Olivia has always been told. So why did she go and do it anyway? And why did he have to be the best friend of her Best Friend's very own bad boy? This is something she never expected. When Olivia and Thomas first meet in home economics, she was a little more than surprised. She quickly learns that no matter what she does he's never gonna leave her alone. Why? Well, she doesn't even know the answer to that. When her best friend Farrah starts dating this bad boy's friend she knows that the countless run in's and unwanted conversations are inevitable and tries to find a way to not kill her self. Figuratively speaking of course. This is nothing compared to what she would go through. This bad boy has taken a genuine interest in her and it has nothing to do with her clumsiness in the kitchen. There is something about her that just draws him in. And as much as Olivia tries to fight the connection, she can never seem to erase him from her mind. Not that Thomas would even think about letting her anyway. Can Thomas convince her that maybe Bad Boy's are her type after all? ****Spin-off of The Bad Boy is Possessive. It is NOT necessary to read TBBIP to understand this book.****
