Fat Cinderella
A wicked stepmother, Two jealous step sisters who are jealous of the oh-so-Amazing Cinderella and a hot prince dude who falls for her. Isn't that how the story goes? I related myself to the perfection called Cinderella when my Dad got married to the witch Margaret, when she brought in her evil daughters to our house, when my dad left for business trips and forgot he had a daughter. So, I grew up listening to the same old story of Cinderella and its many versions. All of these versions had one thing in common. She was drop dead gorgeous. I was not. Chances of an XXL Princess to meet her prince charming are almost Nil. But As the story goes, All It takes is one night. Just one single night that could destroy your fairytale. Hey, I am the fat Cinderella and this is my story of not finding my prince charming but myself.Complete![Tempting Darkness [17+] ✔](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/219526732-256-k941520.jpg)

A monster with the body of a man, jet black eyes of a soulless demon, and even darker feather wings cascading from its back.

Forced asleep by a council who believed in the greater good, many revered the monster. Yet the town's eternal population was torn in two. Half awaited the day for the foretold cursed soul to come and resurrect their lord and the other half feared it just as much. And guess who got to be that lucky bitch. *No love triangle* -&- **WARNING** This book WILL have mature, adult content! Please be aware of this before reading.

'"Oh, William, there will be no heir. The throne will sit empty for years. Everything your father created will be gone. And you will not be able to stop it." She walked towards him, like the serpent in the garden. She touched her finger to his forehead, and leaned into close, "You will become the thing you fear the most; a monster who lurks in the night; a soul lost from its path. You will be blinded by your own fear. As time goes on--and it will go on--you will be trapped by your fear until it consumes you. You will forever be a monster, and you won't be able to stop it." "No," he clamored, "I'll overcome it, I'll fight it every day until I die." "Oh, my dear, you will not die. You will be immune to death--a monster today, a monster tomorrow, and a monster forever. A soul lost from its path can only be led back to the light, it cannot find its own path."'

They were her Filii Aurea, her Golden Children, and they were to inherit the earth. A couple centuries down the line, and the Filii Aurea are struggling to stay alive. With the great Aurean war and Aziel Aro committing perpetual genocide, they're desperate to save their race. Avani Sai and Nuri Bachmann need to find the last remaining descendent of the great Milo Aro, and possibly the last cursed Child, and defeat Aziel Aro. That might not be their biggest concern, however. A charming stranger from the Sovereign Capital and a dark force lurking in the streets seem to pose a bigger threat than perpetual genocide.Complete
