    Starlet never meant to curse a princess. She only came to Wishtide Academy to snag a certain silver-haired boy's heart, and to get her happily ever after with sparkles on top. But fate's got jokes-and the kiss that was supposed to seal her dreams might've just started a royal disaster. Now there's a sleeping beauty, a vanishing almost-boyfriend, and a broody not-a-prince who's annoyingly immune to fairy charm. Mostly. One thing's clear: if Star wants a love story of her own, she'll have to break a few rules, rewrite a few spells- -and kiss the wrong boy for all the right reasons.

    I'll be sure to mark each fanfiction contest entry clearly so that you can avoid spoilers or fandoms you aren't a part of :) This collection also includes contests for the @mythandlegend profile, but since that is obviously under the umbrella of fantasy, it isn't specified in the title!

    So I wanted to try something different, something new. And what better than a classic love story? I've always heard things about Romeo and Juliet but never really read the book or watched the film for myself. So in class we're reading it and I got inspired. So let's just say my version is more urban , and modern day written. The same chain of events but just a few changes.

    After many years of war, two realms are finally in an era of peace. Only there is one absolute rule set upon the fairies: no human shall see a fairy's true form, or else their eyes would be granted the ability to seek the entrance to Theolia. But as the forest fairy Melusine sets out to explore a small human town in the dead of night, she witnesses a crime at play, and her faith and love for humans lead her to break the One Great Rule. Cast out by the fairy council, Melusine is cursed to roam Cassen until she finds the man she has saved and erases his memory of their encounter. The problem? She has no other lead but a pair of wings tattooed on his right chest. Not until a certain prince from Cassen offers his help in exchange of pretending as his bride-to-be until he finds one to secure his throne. Thrown into courtly life, Mel is stuck in a dizzying game of power, revenge, treachery, and a blossoming attraction to the crown prince that puts them both in danger than they know. In the end, she must choose: her duty... or her heart. ••• Featured in: 🌟 @WattpadAlternateUniverse - 42 Isn't The Answer Everywhere 🌟 @WattpadDisney - Bippity Boppity Boo 🌟 @highfantasy - Prythian 🌟 @WattpadDarkFantasy - Dark Desires 🌟 @Romance - Strange Love 🌟 @SpeculativeFiction - More Than The Eye Can See 🌟 @Fantasy - Fairy Tales and Fables, Monthly Picks (April '23) 🌟 @WackyWriters - Undiscovered Gems Under 1k (April '23) 🌟 @lowfantasy - Hearts and Magical Strings 🌟 @StoriesUndiscovered - Tales of Adventure (April '23) 🌟 @retold - Fractured Fairytales 🌟 @WattpadUrbanFantasy - Cities of Wonder 🌟 @YAFantasy - Myths, Legends and Fairytales 🌟 @WattNeverland - Smells Like Pixie Dust
