~𝕭𝖊𝖙𝖗𝖆𝖞𝖆𝖑 𝖎𝖘 𝖔𝖓𝖑𝖞 𝖙𝖍𝖊 𝖇𝖊𝖌𝖎𝖓𝖓𝖎𝖓𝖌~ Born the youngest daughter of Charles I, Duke of Bourbon, Constance of Bourbon grows up amidst comfort and splendour on her powerful family's estates in France. A shy child, she prefers her prayers and pearls to the hefty politics her Father and brothers have no choice but to partake in but war will reach into her life quicker than she could ever know.... Across the sea, in England, the Wars of the Roses rages, a bloody battle for the throne between the royal Houses of York and Lancaster where a word weighs as much as the swing of a sword. Amidst it all, stands Edward of York, the handsome eldest son to the Duke of York, a young knight, eager to fight but forced to flee England in 1459 when the Lancastrian King and Queen overpower his family forces at Ludlow Castle. With his Neville cousins (one being the infamous Earl of Warwick) Edward sails to France where Warwick begins his plots to regain the House of York power. It is as a result of these plots, Edward and Constance are destined to meet. Worlds apart, they will be matched for the benefit of others but when tragedy strikes at the very heart of the House of York, forcing Edward closer to the throne than ever, they find they are, perhaps, what each other needs. Amongst the tangled nest of vipers, surrounded by bloodied thorns, will they keep the crowns destiny calls for them to claim?

The letter had arrived two days ago and Sidney was still trying to comprehend its contents. The news contained within had both grieved him and vexed him in equal measure, so much so that he had struggled to compose a reply, for what response could he make to such a letter? This fanfic follows the story of Sanditon but with a twist. I will write it episode by episode (but split into parts) so it will still largely follow the plot and include all the characters we know and love, but the twist will make things rather different (and hopefully interesting)... As always - a HEA is guaranteed!

"You're not going anywhere, if anything your little boyfriend will just have another seat next to you." Peter threatens. A sharp laugh fell uncontrollably from my lips, which only seemed to make Peter angrier. "What?" He questions harshly. "I just think it's funny that so many people believe you are the great lost king or whatever but you still don't understand anything about the land." I chuckle, doing my best to get on everyone of his nerves, "You're just a boy that fell through a wardrobe." "And what are you? A spoiled false princess." He challenges with his head cocked to the side. I tilt my head equally and smile innocently, "Actually, I prefer unbelievably stunning current heir to the throne." ╣╠ A Witch's daughter story that actually has character development and is actually realistic, ya know, minus the magic part ╣╠ Highest ranks: #1 in PETERPEVENSIE #1 in UPDATING #1 in WHITEWITCH #1 in SERIES ╣╠ Multiple POV ╣╠ Story intertwined with the storyline of the Chronicles of Narnia by C. S. Lewis. I only own Ashton, Benvolio and any other characters not in the books or movies. ╣╠

1464, the War of the Roses has been raging for nine long years. Two royal houses, Lancaster and York, fight for the throne of England. The young Edward IV has deposed his cousin Henry VI and taken the throne by force. Henry is still at large as is his hated Queen, Margaret of Anjou. I just lost my father almost 4 years ago during the Saint Albans' fight when I was only 10 years old. I used to live a good and modest life with my mother, my grandparents and my two little brothers but everything changed when Mother met the King. They got secretly married and he soon announced the news. Mother told me that the news was not well taken by everybody and that we should be careful now that we were at Court. The King asked my mother's hand driven by love while he was promised to another Lady, the Bonne de Savoie. My brothers and I needed protection, especially because we were not from a union with the King, so therefore, we were not royal. We actually all needed protection because my mother was pregnant with, we all hoped for, a baby boy. I knew she wanted to give Edward an heir as soon as possible. Richard III - Grace Woodville (i will let you choose how you see this character :) ) (English is not my first language so this story is a challenge for me, hope you like it ♡) I DO NOT OWN THE WHITE QUEEN OR ITS PLOT AND CHARACTERS. EVERY CHARACTERS AND THE PLOT BELONG TO THE CREATORS OF THE TV SHOW AND THE AUTHOR OF THE BOOKS. I ONLY OWN GRACE AND SOME ADDED CHARACTERS, THEIR PLOT LINES AND DIALOGUE IN THIS STORY.
