Ashes by Lux-Thorn

Cinderella is out for revenge on Prince Charming--the bloodier the better... Once, Elle thought being Prince Alexandre's bride was a dream come to life. That was before he gave her the scars. Before she witnessed the cruel games he plays in his dungeons. Before she tried to assassinate him for the good of the kingdom. He didn't execute her for her crime. That would have been too easy. Instead, he sent her back to live with her cruel stepfamily-as their maid. Her stepmother and stepsisters are eager accomplices in her humiliation, tossing her scraps like a dog, making her lick their floors clean. And every so often, Prince Alexandre himself pays a visit. He misses the sound of her screams too much to give her up entirely. But now he's ready to choose her replacement. He's invited every eligible maiden in the kingdom to a magnificent ball, where he will choose the most innocent of them all to break... the way he once broke Elle. But no one else knows Prince Alexandre like Elle. She knows what he wants in a bride. She knows how to make herself irresistible to him. She knows she can make him choose her. And once he does, she'll have her revenge. All she has to do is get to the ball...

From Death Comes Life (Natasha x Wanda x Girl) by AriasSilva

Salvor Green has spent her life trying to escape her mother's reputation. Which is a hard thing to do when your mother is Death herself. So in an act of rebellion, she decides to make her own name and partners with Loki. They spend the next 100 years causing chaos and destruction in every realm they can get to, eventually landing themselves on earth. Once there, Loki becomes obsessed with a magical cube that, in Salvor's opinion, is an over glorified paperweight. But, she loves Loki and decides to help him steal it. But things quickly spiral out of control when she realizes that Loki may not be entirely truthful about the cube. And when a certain red headed assassin catches her eye, along with an all powerful witch that could give even her mother a run for her money, things get even more crazy as a battle of the heart and a clashing of worlds makes the Avengers compound a raging battleground. ⛔️ while this does slightly follow the MCU timeline, the events of the movies are moved around or changed to fit the story. The events are not the main focus of this storyline ⛔️

Gardenias (L. Laufeyson) by wildflowersandink

{SET BEFORE THE EVENTS OF 'THOR'} - "Did you know," she said, sitting on the ground and turning to the prince, "that Midgard has an entire language dedicated to flowers? Each of them mean something else. It's a very sweet way they can express emotions to each other." Loki laughed quietly. "Midgard can truly be backwards at times, but they are amusing." He nodded to the flower she had just essentially brought back to life. "What does the gardenia symbolize in this language?" "Young love," she answered after a moment of hesitation. "Secret love." Loki felt something flutter in his chest. - Arranged marriages are something out of Shakespeare and ancient history. At least that is the thought of Loki Odinson, but his father clearly has other plans. In a political move aimed to unite Vanaheim and Asgard, Loki is betrothed to the youngest daughter of the royal family of the neighboring realm, Vanaheim. Loki, who doesn't even know if he believes in love at all, finds himself in a very odd position, especially because he's met his betrothed before. A marriage date is set, but both the bride and the groom are less than satisfied. Can love grow out of circumstance?

Until The Clock Stikes (NACS Remake) by JellyBeanniee

My name is Demia Marie Johnson. My father is- was Grigori Damon Johnson I was seven when he remarried, before that I had never known a mothers love. I still don't, but she gave me a sister. My father used to read stories to Lucy and me when we were young. Our favorite was about the boy with the golden egg. 'There was once a Countryman who possessed the most wonderful Goose you can imagine, for every day when he visited the nest, the Goose had laid a beautiful, glittering, golden egg.' It's the one about life being more than what it seems. Or maybe I'm reading to much into it. It could be about the world's most expensive omelet.

Her Cinder Throne (Completed) by ViridianHues

Cole Glassad couldn't care less about the upcoming palace ball meant to find a wife for the prince. Her life is down in the dangerous Sparkstone mines, slaving away for a few coins that her stepmother and stepsister promptly steal. With life a living hell, she has barely enough energy to care for the injured animals she tends in secret, much less a party for the royal family that cares so little for her and the people like her. It isn't until a mysterious man appears out of the shadows, claiming to be one of the long-lost faeries and offering her a chance at freedom, that she begins to see hope. In exchange for enough money to free herself from her family, the faerie asks only for one thing in return-- that Cole attends the ball in order to get close enough to the prince to assassinate him and bring an end to the corrupted royal line. With her mission clear, Cole enters the world of the palace to learn about the prince and find a way into his ball. But dark secrets, violent plots, a strange sense that perhaps the prince isn't as bad as the faerie makes him seem, and a life-changing discovery about her past, all conspire to make Cole's shot at freedom messy and difficult. She must find the strength to get close to the prince, or else the mysterious faerie will send her back to the mines and her dreadful family. Once the clock strikes midnight... she must fulfill her end of the bargain. Once the clock strikes midnight... her hands must be red with the prince's blood.

According to Plan (A Loki x Reader Fanfic) by Aesir_Alchemist

You set out on a poorly planned mission to avenge a close friend and end up making an unlikely ally (Loki in disguise). The brief partnership ends up becoming more than a one-night-thing, despite everyone's best efforts, and soon you're enveloped in the world of Loki, prince of New-Asgard, and you have a newfound power growing within you - your own glorious purpose. Romance is never easy, especially when gods and monsters are in play, but you're on a journey to become more than just Loki's paramour... you're becoming his Lady. Story takes place in a wishful-thinking AU after Thor Ragnarok (Although I guess now every AU is kind of cannon, isn't it?). The Asgardians made it to Earth - Loki doesn't die. Natasha is still alive, Tony is still cocky and breathing, Vision is... around. Endgame and Infinity War are great, but let's keep the sad shit out of this one, shall we?

As the Crow Falls | ✔ by SmokeAndOranges

Niccola is a demi-queen undercover in enemy territory. Her little sister went missing seven moons ago, but one lead remains: a picture of a woman's face, drawn by a diviner shortly after the disappearance. Tracking her down has led Niccola to Calis, the realm next door whose border with her own remains closed for a reason. There, the trail goes cold. Until, that is, Niccola runs into a man in the marketplace who bears a family resemblance to the woman she seeks. His name is Isaiah, crown prince of Calis, and he's investigating disappearances, too. They join forces, faking courtship to sneak Niccola into the palace and get Isaiah's wedding-minded mother off his back. It doesn't take long to suspect that a common threat might underpin both their realms' problems. And as Niccola begins to develop real feelings for Isaiah, she's faced with an impossible choice: reveal her secrets and risk breaking his trust, or leave him in order to chase down the woman who stole her sister... a woman whose forbidden magic comes with a cost that could bring both realms to ruin. ❖❖❖ Complete and fully edited.
