Book One of Pan of Never Duology Have you ever wondered what came after Wendy and the other Darlings? What of all the other children Peter has visited over the years? Surely, there are many. I would find it very hard to believe that the ever-playful Peter Pan would not spread his legacy on to a new generation of believers. Where would the world be if children did not believe in silly fairy tales such as Peter Pan? Gwen and her sister have heard the tales of Peter Pan since they were tiny children. Never had they gave a single thought that he or the whole of Neverland, might actually exist. He had always been a figment of imagination. A pastime for children. They thought wrong. When Gwen and Wendi are kidnapped in the dead of night, who is going to save them from the Neverland pirates and the dangerously attractive captain leading them? When Gwen is stuck between the playful rogue and the handsome pirate, the hero and the villain will clash in a battle of wills bigger than either thought possible. And in the end, good always triumphs over evil. Right? Will the boy who never grew up stand a chance with the girl who never saw him coming? **The Token Awards 2017 Third Place Winner! ** **A WattNeverland Account Featured Story. ** The beautiful cover is made by the amazing @ryuwelp00 !!

Stories can change over time until it is almost completely backwards and unrecognizable. How it came to be is often lost. That is why it is best to look toward the beginning of things, rather than what it became; because only then will you truly understand. It didn't happen ages ago in a land far away-but it happened right here, right now, in an ordinary town with ordinary kids. Let me tell you my story of how it all began. Let me tell the story of the boy who never stopped running, that is, until he began to fly. Created 2016

An Alice In The Wonderland Retelling Seventeen-year-old Eleana Rosenberg lived a terribly mundane life with her adoptive parents and sister before she was swept away to a world with wormholes in the form of rabbit holes, deadly gorgeous shapeshifters, and one mad king-while attending a dreadful countryside wedding. Eleana was caught in the middle of a confuddling mess between a country of bizarre citizens and a bipolar royalty, all wanting to crown her queen, a nest of skeletal monstrosity in a creepy ivory palace, and the development of her very own peculiar powers. How is a girl to keep her sanity in a world of madness?

A mangled curse. An old feud. A horrible monster. Ever since the Beast overthrew the King three years ago, the country of Fabel has been on the edge of chaos and Annalise's nameless village is one of many places hanging onto order by a fraying thread. With only a thin stretch of danger infested forest away from the old castle, it's prime hunting ground for the Beast. As if fending off regular attacks weren't enough, denying the advances of a monster hunter turns out to be harder than it ought to be, especially since Anna already has an engagement ring on her finger. But it only takes one broken bargain to shatter everything Annalise knows. To save her father from a fatal mistake, Anna agrees to take his place as the Beast's prisoner. But she hasn't given up on going home so she strikes a deal of her own. She can leave the castle, but only if she breaks the curse that binds the Beast - a curse he can't tell her how to break. But as Anna struggles to figure out how to release the Beast from his enchantment before time runs out, she catches the attention of the Enchantress who first cast it, an Enchantress with a long memory and unfinished business. And she doesn't plan on fighting fair. (Formerly Red as Roses)

***FREE STORY***Antoine, his daughters Marthe, Marie and Beauty must leave fashionable Paris for rural Avon, in the shadow of enchanted forêt de Fontainebleau. News from Paris offers the family a glimmer of hope, until Antoine comes face to face with a ferocious Beast... Wattpad Reader Reviews: @nycgal38 I love the beginning! I'm thinking at this point it would make a wonderful bedtime story. It's so beautifully described! @thebeast86 This is so well written. I LOVE your writing style ❤❤❤ @AmandaUrie23 I love how in your version of beauty and the beast, you've given the beauty's sisters more character and made them more realistic as opposed to most accounts where the sisters are just bland and mean. I also like how you've given Belle a backstory. The best part in all of this is the historical accuracy, and the proper use of royal titles. It's my first time reading this and I'm so excited for what's to come! @MellifluousSkies This feels like a brand new story, as I am reading it, even though it is "a tale as old as time". Great story telling...I love the filling out you have done with such a classic tale, adding more background and feelings to really give the story a large presence. Brava! @random__thoughts I'm so glad that I found this! It's amazing and deserves way more attention! @mirabellaspencer I love love love ur book beauty and the beast. The way that u changed the story but yet kept it the same was amazing. @juliadarcy87 Omg Disney skipped the plan to eat her haha. @eldorado16 Love the first line! And impressed by how Beauty seems to bring out the best in everyone - except her sisters. @AmericanBeauty_y I effing love this story! I don't understand why it isn't more popular

#WATTYS2018 LONGLIST!! When Sparrow snuck off to end the ransom deal with the shifty dwarf, she didn't count on having a sister kidnapped. Nor did she anticipate being roped along on a crazy quest where she finds herself in a dragon's lair, in a royal palace, and everywhere in between. All she wanted was for Augustin to propose so she could finally stop that dreaded spinning, finally have a home for her little sister and herself, finally be loved. Except maybe a small part of her still longs for the innocent girl she used to be, singing and playing in the woods with her best friend and dreaming of adventure. The part of herself she tried so hard to bury when her pap disappeared and her mam went crazy years ago. And as Sparrow discovers more secrets about herself than she ever could have imagined, she is forced to question which of her dreams, if any, is the one she really wants. From the author of Beyond the Tower comes a loose retelling of Snow White and Rose Red, Rumpelstiltskin, and The Goose Girl filled with more magic, adventure, and romance than ever before. Updates every other friday!

PREVIOUSLY CALLED "BEAUTY'S MELODY" "Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that." ~Martin Luther King Jr. ~~~~~ In the beginning, there was a boy. A girl. And a beast. For years, legends rumor that there is a beast roaming in the Péige Forest near a northern village in the kingdom. It is merciless, ruthless, and undeniably dangerous to all those who come near. Hundreds of men have attempted to kill it only to never be heard of again. It has been a year since Mira's older brother has been gone after venturing off to kill the beast. And like all the others, everyone suspects he is dead and the pain comes right after when they find out that it is true. Determined to take revenge, her youngest sister goes off on her own into the Péige Forest to avenge her brother. Mira now has no choice but to save her siblings in a hunt that could very well end her life. But when she gets separated from her family for good, nothing seems certain anymore. Not even the strange, kind man, who never reveals his identity, she met along the way. He promises to help her find her siblings only with the condition that she would not come close to him. That one decision would change life forever, plunging her in a world of light and dark, hatred and love. ~~ A Beauty and the Beast Retelling Edited by flowergirl82 Cover by me Cover picture by Emily Soto (http://goo.gl/tYZhQP)
