Every little girl has wanted to be a princess: the pretty dresses, the balls and the princes. It was like a fairytale dream come true.

Astrid Wellington has quickly learned that the life of a socialite, indulging in riches was nothing of the fairytale sort: snobby, rich people surround her daily, and she's forced to put up with the life she'd never wanted. Going to a private school with the spawn of sociaites had been the worst of her worries. At least she was accustomed to it.

However, what Astrid wasn't prepared for was to be suddenly whisked off to a foreign country on the coast of South America to step in as the Crown Princess of Aldern.

And nothing could have possibly prepared her for the pressures that came with playing princess.

Statera: The Balance of Yin and Yang by alyaleah
29 parts Complete
In a world where select few can manipulate Yin and Yang energy, equilibrium has been maintained by fair treatment to users of both sides. In recent years, however, this delicate balance has been threatened by extreme beliefs. Those who have the power to tip the scales are fueling flames of suspicion and turning man against each other. The world is disintegrating into ruins; droughts, floods, famine, corruption and distrust among Yin and Yang Congregants threaten to upend life as it is. Aletheia is just a girl from a normal family in Minato. Her family just well off enough to send her to her dream in life: the Congregate. But she is not a Supplicant and her family has no ties within the Communion. So she enters the Congregate almost a blank slate, only armed with what she read in her hometown, which wasn't much. She has no idea what is coming for her as her life up to that point had been quite normal, specked with the typical existential crisis many of you would know well. What was the meaning of life? What was she here to do? When Aletheia meets Elora at the Congregate - oh beautiful, talented Elora - Aletheia realises that she does not have a Glorious Purpose. No, she thinks she has found her meaning in Elora. For reasons she cannot comprehend, Aletheia believes Elora is the one who will wrestle the world back into balance, and she is merely along for the ride. She doesn't realise her companionship to a Elora's journey is more important than she knows. Follow her as she navigates through self-doubt, uncertainty, love, loyalty and friendship, searching and grasping at her meaning while she fights alongside Elora, whose shoulders carry the burden of saving the world. ~~~ Story now complete: Updates weekly!

33 parts Complete Mature
Cailleach Bheur. The Bringer of Winter. Demi-goddess queen of Wal'yah. I was supposed to be born a woman. I was supposed to lead my people, use the wisdom of the ancestors to keep them safe. I was supposed to be the greatest Cailleach since the beginning of creation, take the mantle from my grana and become what she promised me I was to be. I was meant to be their leader, and I failed them. I failed them all, and worse yet, I abandoned them. Left my home and family burning behind me, their blood coating my body, their lives bitter on my tongue. Their souls heavy in my heart. But I would return. I swore it on the blood of the goddess queens of my line. I would return, and I would bring the wrath of winter down on the men who thought to end my line. For I am Cailleach, I am my grana's grandson, and I am death to those who mean Wal'yah harm. I am death, I am destruction, and I am vengeance. Nothing would stand in my way, not even the two men who both should have been my enemies, but who I was in danger of falling much too hard for. Because I could not be weak. Not again. And my people deserved the vengeance I would bring down on the heads of our enemies. Even if it meant losing the men my heart yearned for. *****Bringer of Winter is a M/M/M polyamorous romance with magic, pirates, and gryphons. Because who doesn't like magic, pirates, and gryphons?? Trigger warnings in first chapter.*****
In Spite of Us by Fancy_a_Cuppa
5 parts Ongoing Mature
Caitlyn Kiramman has always lived life on the polished side of the bridge-elite education, relentless expectations, and a future mapped out by her influential family. Her days are consumed by perfect grades, polished appearances, and the ever-present shadow of what it means to be a Kiramman. The last thing she needs is someone like Vi: brash, unpredictable, and from the wrong side of Piltover's divide. Vi's life is chaos in motion. Between fighting to protect her sister from the dangers of Zaun and dealing with Piltover's patronising attempts to "save" kids like her, she has no time for Caitlyn's cold stares or her condescending privilege. Except avoiding Caitlyn seems impossible, and no matter how much Vi claims to despise her, the friction between them only grows hotter with every encounter. As their paths intertwine in ways neither expected, Caitlyn and Vi are forced to confront the cracks in their city-and themselves. But in a world built to keep them apart, trust comes slowly, and old wounds cut deep. With political tensions mounting and familial expectations threatening to tear them in opposite directions, their connection feels as fragile as the bridge that separates Piltover from Zaun. Enemies by circumstance, drawn together by something they can't name, Caitlyn and Vi must decide: Will they let the world pull them apart, or will they risk everything for the chance to rewrite their story? *messed around with people's ages*
