In the big city of TFCH (The Foot of Critteriffic Heights) one cat critter in specific has been living day by day, trying to stay happy in his current household. He would constantly stay up at night, and sleep during the day to avoid any form of interactions with his parents. Why? Because they're always peckering on him to change. Despite what he tries, for whatever reason, they're too persistent. They don't let him hang around the people he want to hang around, they're always telling him to be someone he isn't, trying to change his appearance, you name 'em: They're trying to control every aspect of his life. Sometimes they'd even take drastic measures to make sure it's done. Whether it harms or not. For 13 years he has been ignored, yelled at, sometimes even beaten for being the one HE wants to be. It only takes so long for one's sanity to fade though. After an incident with one of his few best friends, he's had enough... He decided to execute a plan he had made years before. Flee... Far... Far away... past Critteriffic Heights Perhaps he could finally find someone who cares and accepts. Maybe even something he was inches away from getting right before he left. Maybe now he can be him. Somewhere else, a dog critter was walking back into his house after a long day of playing around with his friends. When he got inside, he started making his way to the bedroom to rest for the night. But in the corner of his eye, he sensed movement. He tensed up as he decided to investigate it from the window. And there he saw it... There was a figure walking around in the empty house... ------------------------------ Original cover art: TheNinjaMonkey03 Edited by TheWeirdFriend (me) I do not own The Smiling Critters in any form, shape, or way.

When Nico returns at the worst possible moment, he holds Ellie hostage to force Tessia's surrender. With the life of her love's sister hanging in the balance, Tessia is on the brink of giving in. Just as despair sets in, a familiar presence shatters the darkness. Arthur Leywin, presumed lost, emerges from the shadows-alive and determined to fight for those he holds dear. With his return, hope is reignited, and the battle for their future begins anew.

Imagine if Grandest Game never happened. The Hawthornes continued on as normal, but everything shifted once the family found out about their presumed dead grandmother. And across the state, Alice's most loyal employe found out what the Hawthornes know. This book is a replacement of Grandest Game, in which Lyra never exists. It was mainly made because we didn't believe that Lyra was the best partner choice for him. It's a dual novel, written by two people! It's planned to be a three book series. P.S. The title may be subjected to change over time.

Nora Grace, Emily's twin, was nothing like her sister. She tried to cause as little attention to herself, and only ever secretly wanted one thing: Grayson Hawthorne. She left Texas for a boarding school in New York after her sister's death. She'd fallen for Grayson Hawthorne, even though he and Jameson were wrapped around Emily's finger. There were short moments where they could have been something. The spark was undeniable. But he chose Emily, every time.

what if when Arthur returns from Alacrya and Tessia was always there cold and ruthless nothing like the girl he promised to ? In the wake of a devastating war, Arthur Leywin, once a hero and the future of Dicathen, has returned from Alacrya-now a man transformed. Gone is the boy Tessia once knew, replaced by the figure of Lance Godspell, a god-like savior hailed by the people for his victories over the Taci and alliances with the very people who destroyed her home. The kingdom celebrates his return, but Tessia can't bring herself to rejoice. As the head of Dicathen's strongest division, Tessia has fought relentlessly to protect her people, but the scars of war run deep. The death of her parents, the devastation of her homeland, and the choices Arthur made during his time away have hardened her heart. Now, the man she once trusted stands before her, worshipped by others, but to her, nothing more than a broken promise. With tensions rising and the kingdom still recovering from the ravages of war, Tessia must face Arthur once more. But forgiveness is a distant notion, and her anger toward him burns too brightly to ignore. As old alliances are tested and secrets begin to surface, Tessia will find herself caught between her duty to Dicathen and the unresolved rage she feels toward the man who left her behind. "The Broken Promise" explores the complexities of trust, vengeance, and the long road to healing, as two souls clash over a past that neither can escape.
