Genesis de Valois has been cursed from a young age, one that constantly reminds her of the wretch that she is. Every morning, she wakes up to the catastrophe of trouble she's caused her whole life. Every night, she sleeps to the suffocating smell of her wrongs. When a man appears on her flower field near dead, Genesis knows that this could be her chance. This could be her chance to do something good, something right for once. But healing and helping this man would prove harder than it seems. Especially when he seems so intent on dying. Graphic by caralogues/seertostar/ @toruinagod -------------------------------------------------------- Main prompts: 10. Every time you've failed something, a flower appears in your yard. You now have the most spectacular flower garden in the neighborhood. But all you want is grass. 28. Self-love often starts small, like planting a single seed. With time, patience, and a bit of light, it will grow. Sub-prompts: 7. One morning, the ocean washes up a message. One you've been waiting for your whole life. 29. You will meet many people in your life. Many will come and go, but some will leave footprints on your heart.

For most of her twenty-one years of life, 𝙍𝙤𝙨𝙖𝙡𝙮𝙣 has lived in a gilded cage. Though as any young woman would, the princess longs for one thing only; freedom. Freedom to run into the sea, to dance under the sun... to be her very own. Sadly, as merely a pawn in a king's game and with war looming on the horizon, she is asked to put aside desire for duty. Destined to wed 𝙎𝙚𝙗𝙖𝙨𝙩𝙞𝙖𝙣. A rakish brute of a prince from a heathen country without summer, in need of an heir and a broodmare to produce it. However, when an attempt is made on her life, Rosalyn is assigned a sworn-protector. 𝙎𝙞𝙧 𝙂𝙚𝙧𝙖𝙡𝙩 The Butcher; a faceless knight of the Faith and retired crusader with haunted eyes and a penchant for gardening. The soft-spoken knight is unlike anyone she's ever met. A grumpy enigma always hidden beneath a helm. 𝘐𝘧 𝘰𝘯𝘭𝘺 𝘴𝘩𝘦 𝘤𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥 𝘴𝘦𝘦 𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘧𝘢𝘤𝘦... When the threat of war increases, The Butcher is tasked with transporting the princess in secret. A perilous journey that will test not only Geralt's skill as a knight, his faith, his patience, but perhaps even his self control as a mere man. For when forbidden desire blooms, two questions arise: 𝘞𝘪𝘭𝘭 𝘎𝘦𝘳𝘢𝘭𝘵 𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘴𝘢𝘬𝘦 𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘴𝘢𝘤𝘳𝘦𝘥 𝘰𝘢𝘵𝘩𝘴 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘭𝘰𝘷𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘢 𝘱𝘳𝘪𝘯𝘤𝘦𝘴𝘴? 𝘈𝘯𝘥 𝘸𝘪𝘭𝘭 𝘙𝘰𝘴𝘢𝘭𝘺𝘯 𝘱𝘶𝘵 𝘢𝘴𝘪𝘥𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘧𝘢𝘵𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘭𝘮 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘰𝘯𝘦... 𝙜𝙤𝙤𝙙 𝙠𝙣𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙩?

A fake biography. A bookshop on the brink. And a village that refuses to be written off. ••• Elinor Cadwalader restores broken books for a living. Her own story, however, is falling apart at the seams: her grandfather - the only person who ever believed in her - died leaving behind a crumbling bookshop, an unfinished manuscript, and the quiet certainty that love always ends in goodbye. Now, with the bank demanding payment and her mother insisting she sell, Ellie is cornered into the most absurd lie of her life: pretending to be the official biographer of Theodore Ashford. He's the reclusive fantasy author with a talent for sarcasm, a sports car that growls like a wounded dragon, and the outrageous opinion that classic literature is just dead people showing off (absolute heresy). Three months. One lighthouse. Two total opposites. And a Welsh seaside village threatened by a luxury resort developer who wants to pave over everything Ellie has ever loved. Faking it was supposed to be simple. But between a box of wartime love letters hidden in the attic, foggy confessions in an abandoned lighthouse, and a ruthless literary critic determined to expose them, Ellie is about to learn that some stories can't be restored - they have to be written from scratch. And Theodore Ashford is nothing if not a story waiting to begin. papertreasure ©️ 2026 All rights reserved.

Everything in young Lord Rivien's life is as precise as the sweep of his sword. It has to be: with a dead princess for a mother, an absentee general for a father, and a nursemaid peddling dangerous fairytales to his siblings, precision is the only tool he has to keep his family in order. No matter if it hurts them in the short term. It's the only way to protect them. But when a passionate, poetry-tongued girl invades his dreams and begs him to save her from the monsters hunting her, he'll find himself far from order and even farther from his family. Whatever it takes to get back, he'll do. He'll cast any spell, cut through any monster, spill any blood -- no matter how much that cold determination scares the girl he came to rescue. But if he's not careful, he'll find the most dangerous monsters aren't the ones he can cut through. _______________________ Cover © 2026 Avadel Ink Authorized solely on wattpad.com/avadel Updates Mondays & Fridays

☆ SLOW BURN • DARK ROMANCE ☆ 〜 They burned her kingdom to ash. Now she sleeps beneath the roof of its conqueror. Clarice, last princess of Sahradyn, was meant to die with her family. Instead, she was spared, dragged across enemy lines and locked in a tower by the man who shattered her world. King Caelen of Velmoras is cold, calculating, and ruthless. He offers her only one choice: become his concubine, or rot in the tower. Yet even as Clarice plots her survival, something stirs between them. A pull. A thread. The old texts call it the soul-thread: a bond said to bind enemies as often as lovers, rare and perilous, long dismissed as myth. But Clarice feels it now, in every glance, every silence, every clash of wills with the man she should hate above all others. As war brews on the borders and kingdoms begin to fracture, Clarice must decide whether the thread binding her to Caelen is a curse to be severed, or a weapon powerful enough to change the fate of empires.
