~Your typical high school story. A girl still trying to find her way into the world and happens to come across a boy. This player boy that she has no interest in seems to sweep her away. And that's when you find out you're not as bad or as good as you thought you were. And all the rumors of this boy being a bad boy is really the opposite...or is this actually NOT a typical high school story?... ~~~~~ 16-year-old girl, Nina Haden, who is a Badass to the world, but a goody-good at heart and very clever, goes through the struggle of growing up in a typical small town. There are deep secrets within her that she hides from the world, but she barely knows what they are anymore since she's been hiding them for so long, she's almost forgetting. Can she find them again? And be who she really is meant to be? Or does she have to get broken, or can she love to find them? Struggling to find out the answer of 'who she is,' she pushes everyone away from her, ignoring who she is and not listening to the advice from others. But against all odds, there's only one person that does stick with her, someone that surprises her and loves her, someone not in a million years she thought would stay. Let's hope she doesn't push this person away too... ~~~~~~ __ Showing: "A typical life is never really a typical life " -- _________________ Cover made by: @EleanorIslington2022 some edits by @taicardi _________________ I reserve the right to this story and these characters and plot.

It's in my greatest interest that I get the king on my side. He will underestimate me-they all do-and think me harmless. He will eventually let his guard down and even though he may not ever regard me as more than a mild nuisance, it will make it easier for me to strike when he's least expecting it. Painless and quick, of course. Poison or a dagger to the heart. After all, I'm a most gracious and kind queen. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- For five years, Hereswithe has ruled Icrawaiweth, a small and impoverished kingdom notoriously referred to as the Wasteland. Despite countless enemies within her court plotting against her, she has made strides in building a better kingdom for her people. But when her estranged husband, the infamous Wretched King of the Wasteland, returns from war, her position as queen is threatened. Hera decides that she has no other option but to kill the king, but the more she learns about the mysterious man, the less sure she becomes...She knows she should hate him, but she just can't. When Emrys returns from fighting in his father-in-law's war, he is surprised to learn that his young and ambitious wife has become a force to be reckoned with. But Emrys can't decide if he can trust her. For Hera's father, Emperor Rowan de Roet VI of The Ostonian Empire is a cruel man that seeks to claim the entire Continent for himself. Torn between aiding the Rebellion and starting another war or turning his back, Emrys struggles with his own demons. And although he can't deny his desire to get closer to Hera, he can't in fear of revealing to her just how monstrous he truly is. Emrys' and Hera's pasts, presents and futures are deeply entangled in ways that can't be undone. Together, they must learn to trust each other and elimate threats from within their court and other kingdoms or else face a fate worse than death. **UPDATED ON SATURDAYS**
