《COMPLETE》

Link is a seven year old boy, who has lived in an foster care his whole life. He never talked to anyone that often, unless they spoke to him. You would see him as that one quiet, shy kid that reads in a corner. And, he was. 

He would get bullied because of it by the older kids at school. The only friends he had were Daruk, Urbosa, and Mipha. 

Then one day when he came back to the foster care after school a little surprise awaited him there that would change his life forever.

☡WARNING☡

If you get triggered by abuse, bullying, sexual abuse or anything related to this topic please read warnings before a chapter just in case to skip a chapter or skim over it. And I'll also write the warning before I start that section with one of those topics.

So please be aware of those warnings for your sakes please!

39 parts Complete Mature
In modern day Hyrule, Link is an orphan who lives in an orphanage. Because he is meant to be the Hero of Hyrule, his bunkmates get jealous and bully him for it. When Link enters first grade, he befriends Zelda, the most beautiful girl in Hyrule, and eventually falls in love with her. The two become inseparable, but everything changes when Zelda hits puberty; she vanishes and doesn't show up at school. Link tries to contact and find her, but no luck. Five years later, Link is a 16-year-old man with severe depression and a Hero chosen by the Master Rifle. He is still in love with Zelda and thinks about her every second of his life. One day, Link saves a woman from the Yiga clan members, and that woman turns out to be Zelda. She tells him about where she has been for the past five years, and once Link finds out the truth, he dedicates his days to helping Zelda feel safe and happy again away from her selfish, rich father Rhoam and her forced fiance, Ganondorf. While Link and Zelda try to save themselves from the abuse, an evil prince from another country declares war on Hyrule in hopes of annexing the kingdom, and Link must go to war, leaving Zelda. Will he come back alive or die in the war? ***ranked #1 in #Gerudo ***ranked #1 in #linkxzelda Cover drawn by @_yapsharlene.
The Legend of the Hero of Twilight by MarkOfTheWolf230
6 parts Ongoing Mature
Link lives a peaceful life as a ranch hand in Ordon Village. He spends his days herding goats, helping the villagers, playing with the village children, and riding his horse with his friend Ilia. His life is quiet and simple, and that's how he likes it. Then, one day, everything changes. His village is attacked by monsters and his friends are abducted. As he chases after them, Link comes face-to-face with an unnatural black wall stretching across the forest. The next thing he knows, he's in a dungeon, and he's . . . a wolf? Rescued by an imp named Midna, and told of his fate by Zelda, Princess of Hyrule, he is thrust into an adventure against a dark force unlike any that Hyrule has ever seen. He will face countless obstacles and nameless evils, but he knows he has to try. Even still, a lingering doubt gnaws at him even as the dangers of power rear their ugly heads. How can light prevail when the shadows themselves are alive? This is a novelization of The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess. I have taken a few creative liberties in the process of novelization to try and ensure the story flows well and makes sense. I do not own and do not claim to own anything pertaining to Nintendo or the Zelda franchise. This is written in appreciation of the game's story and not to claim it as my own.

Who We Are; Zelink, Modern (The Legend Of Zelda) by Inastaria
44 parts Complete
((read whole description to know what you're getting into xD)) There is a secret hiding in the nation of Hyrule. For centuries this land has been a democracy, but few actually know just what is going on behind the scenes. What use are the old tales when no one even believes in magic anymore? Zelda is a girl who lives her life trapped within the walls of her family's mansion. She only leaves to go to school, and there she meets someone who will quite literally change her life forever. ((Please don't swear in my comment section. If you do, I'll delete it. Hate speech, swearing, and inappropriate comments will all be deleted.)) WARNING; This story has only been partially edited and I cringe to high heaven reading it. I don't mind you enjoying it, so I'll leave it up but don't judge my writing by this book. If you can't stand it, like me, please head on over to Raising the Stakes, which I have put much more time and effort into and is a million times better. The Legend of Zelda is (c) to Nintendo.

Blinding Darkness - Zelda X Ganondorf by 135795e
32 parts Complete
"What if I don't have to be defined by the curse I bear?" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ It all started by a peace offering. Zelda was tired of watching destruction reign in the land she loved. Tired of reincarnating again and again, tired of fighting, of rebuilding Hyrule just to watch it fall again. So she did what no other Princess of Wisdom had ever done. She gave up war, the time-old struggle over the Triforce. 60 days to forge eternal peace, 60 days to shatter it forever. OKAY PEOPLE. New ship! Honestly I'm not sure where the story is going to go, like I don't even have the full storyline planned out yet, but LETZ GET IT ANYWAYS! This story is not recommended for people under 13 years old.
The Legend of Zelda - School of the Wild by zeldaslink7
12 parts Ongoing
Zelda Hyrule's life has always been one that is not her own. Zelda has always been the spitting image of what her Father wants her to be. She has never broken a rule. That being, never been out past 9 pm, has never cut a class, and most importantly, has never, ever had a boyfriend. She goes to her private academy like her Father wants, and that's the end of her story. However, her fate takes an unfortunate turn when she accidentally gets herself blamed for something she didn't do and is expelled. Now, with her Father furious with her, she has no choice but to finish out her high school years at a regular public school. She has her eyes set on clearing her name, and no intention of staying in this crappy public school. As if by pure sheer coincidence, or maybe it was fate, she meets Link. Link, the silent superstar of the school, who, in her hour of need, comes to her side with no hesitation. She is undoubtedly drawn to him, yet she needs to stay away. As she progresses day by day, she meets a couple of new friends, and even a few enemies. Will Zelda clear her name? Or will she stay in this public dump for a couple of friends and a silent knight?

Kings (Ganlink) by DearChose
39 parts Ongoing
-plus comic vers- one night, Link (Oc) closed the store he worked at when he was interrupted by a mysterious client. His long luscious red hair, his soft expression and a helping hand made him fall on more than the floor. His heart racing, he watched him walk away. Will he see that man ever again? (Part one) >>>>COMIC VERSION AT THE END<<<< As the group thought their adventure was finished, one heard a voice calling for thir help across time. At their awakening, they were scattered among different eras. Ganlink, Sidlink (Part two) The two parts are same story and characters (continuity) I just separate it for people more interested in one of the two. This is a Zelda fanfiction I started writing that puts a Link oc of mine in love with young ocarina of time's Ganondorf. (Link is 19 and Gan is 22) I post short updates, but I do so very often! ~~~ I don't mark it as mature, but know that subjects can go into it, but nothing too deep. The story is technically done, but I am doing a comic adaptation of it that I put here. It's on tumblr : Dearchose Good reading! ^^
The Fate Of Hyrule by BushGremlin
7 parts Complete Mature
Hyrule is in a deep peril... Although Link had gone back in time to warn the Princess of Hyrule about Ganondorf's true plans and what the future holds, it was not enough. A seven year war waged, the Gerudo-Hylian War, which ended with the Gerudo's success. Ganondorf became the new king of Hyrule, alongside his chosen queen, Zelda. The Hero Of Time ceased to exist after he died amongst the soldiers on the battle field. Those who object his rule are sentenced to a death penalty, and with the world becoming more and more unkind after ten long years, people are starting to lose hope. Even Her Majesty has begun to lose faith, that is until she got a closer look in a mysterious fellow (Oo, sooo mysterious~) named Shylo. She believes, with his help and optimism, they will be able to finally destroy The Demon King, Ganondorf. Unfortunately however, there is no one left to wield the master sword... or is there?... (This takes place after Ocarina Of Time) Warning: If you don't like reading long chapters, this book is not for you. Some chapters, of course, may be shorter than others or maybe even average length, but this book does contain various long chapters. Second Warning (the real warning): I am cynical and cruel (so cynical! So cruel!...). So, while I stray from erotic things, it will include some gore, foul language and vulgar implications, possible suicidal tendencies, domestic violence/abuse, possible child abuse, mania, and overall anything that I feel is necessary to complete a scene. Enjoy. :) Chapter One: 8,492 words Chapter Two: 8,854 words Chapter Three: 6,152 words Chapter Four: 4,936 words Chapter Five: 8,653 words Chapter Six: 8,334 words Chapter Seven: 9,083 words Chapter Eight: WIP Words so far: 54,486 Pages so far: 238-9? (Approximately) (Is currently being worked on, has not been abandoned.)
How A Princess Fights. by BlackRoseSith
62 parts Complete Mature
When Zelda is forced to marry a tyrant that would bring her country to ruin, she lashes out at her new husband. The new King plots against her so he can have the kingdom and the Triforce for himself but Zelda has many friends in Hyrule. She must leave Hyrule Castle, her home, with no one but a knight at her side. She leaves with a promise, a promise to return some day, an army at her side and retake her kingdom, liberating her subjects from the King's tyranny. This is a Zelink story but I doubt it will be as good as my first Zelink story, 'A Princess Problem' but let's give it a try. I love feedback so comment on anything and everything, and correct me if you think I'm wrong. Be warned, there maybe smut but it is minimal. #1 Zelink OH MY HYLIA! THANKS!
