**Only the bonus chapter is paid, the rest of the story is (and will stay) free!!** Libby Marks-Whelan is decidedly not a lady. Kicked out of nearly every finishing school in the country, she's shocked when her demure, straight-laced cousin Ella invites her to the royal court as attendant during her debutante season. What Ella fails to realize, however, is that Libby's brand of mischief is exactly the kind of distraction Prince Andrew is looking for during his inaugural season as an eligible bachelor.

[Highest Rank: #328] Anna's a normal girl. Well, at least she wishes she was. She watched her parents die in front of her when she was eight years old. Ten years later, she's lived her life in ignorance, attempting to regain the childhood innocence that was once lost. She only wishes to live normally ... like any other teen girl. Of course, it's hard when people keep looking at her with those pitying eyes. The only thing she's retained from her trauma is a mild fear of congested social occasions and occasional nightmares. Otherwise, she's just your typical, straight-A, quirky girl who lives with her neighbors and crushes on her adoptive brother. Okay, maybe she ISN'T that normal. But one thing's for sure. Her life is flipped inside-out once she runs into the school's notorious troublemaker, who has just as much of a dark past as she does. She just wants to be friends. He just wants to avoid her. [Mild use of foul language. You have been warned.] [Other stories: Give Her a Life] Cover and multimedia made through Canva. Picture does not belong to me. (If you're curious, the girl on the cover is Black Pink's Jisoo. And ohmigod Black Pink's comeback song is titled "Playing with Fire." IT'S FATE!)

[Highest Rank: #38] She's boring. They're spoiled. A playboy, a jerk, and a prodigy enter her life, and she becomes entangled in a new game of something that she has 0 experience with: romance. ~ It's the middle of senior year, and Jennie is more than enthusiastic to finally be done with preparing for college. Her perfect transcript, teacher recommendation, and resume have been sent in the form of applications, and now she's just awaiting a stress-free life for the remainder of her time at Millennium High, her private boarding school. Of course, life doesn't play out the way one expects it to, and it definitely throws a curveball towards Jennie. Her work hard, study hard routine is threatened by the arrival of a trio of rich, successful boys ... and, unlike the rest of the school, she's just not seeing the excitement. All she wanted to do was spend the remainder of the year focusing on graduating as the valedictorian of the school -- which was inevitable in the first place -- but these boys seem to have something sorely against her success. Juggling a newfound social reputation on her shoulders, along with many other problems that she and the newcomers face, Jennie attempts to continue on with her life as a simple, intelligent girl. It just gets annoying when she has to deal with something that she's never experienced before within her boring life -- love. How better to describe romance than with cheesiness and cliches, right? Well, Jennie's never been a fan of those things. NOTE: 'Tis a rather casually-written story so don't expect anything TOO deep here. Of course, you may be surprised. *insert mischievous grin here. Also, if you don't like romantic things ... might want to leave (but who doesn't, honestly?)
