The Triumph of the Scarlet Pimpernel by Baroness Emmuska Orczy. I do not own the story. Just thought of putting this great swash-buckling, adventures of the original superhero. copy from Project Gutenberg.

If you thought the Pimpernel had it rough with Chauvelin on his trail, try adding Citizens Robespierre, Couthon, Louis Antoine St. Just, and the beautiful Theresia Cabarrus, fiancée of Tallien. Robespierre becomes paranoid about the Pimpernel and must have him destroyed. Theresia is sent to seduce the elusive hero. And, just to make certain everything goes according to his plan, Chauvelin has Marguerite kidnapped and imprisoned!

Can Percy continue to disguise himself as Rateau and get away with it?

Can Robespierre maintain power when betrayal is stirring in every corner?

Will Marguerite be rescued without suffering the death of her husband?

Will Chauvelin ever learn to tie his cravat properly?! Or will this be the end of the Scarlet Pimpernel!?

Doesn't Play Well With Tricksters by AJK_ForFun
23 parts Complete Mature
In this alternate universe, Loki has been exiled to Midgard when Odin sees through his disguise (Think the end of Thor, The Dark World). He is haunted by his part in the death of his adoptive mother. He has visions of her that may be her talking to him from beyond the veil of death or just his overactive guilty conscience playing tricks on him. Either way, he has promised her he will do everything he can to make up for the things he's done. Even if it takes until the end of time itself. As part of his penance, Loki is restricted to Stark Tower until such time as the team believes he is no longer a threat to the world. As it gives him the opportunity to try to keep his promise, he doesn't argue. Much. Rachael has recently acquired magic from a relative. Shortly after, she was recruited by Stark and moved into Stark Tower to help the team. It's the one place she would never have expected to encounter the God of mischief himself, who happens to be the root of the magic she doesn't trust. (Long story short, Rachael's ancestor Bridgette fell for Loki when he was on Midgard nearly four hundred years ago. Eight months after Odin ordered his sons home, Bridgette had a daughter. Skip about five years of wishing for him, and Bridgette accepts that he's not coming back. She marries and has other children. One of these later children is Rachael's ancestor. The elder child is the ancestor of Rachael's distant cousin Nicolla, who was adopted by Rachael's grandmother and raised as Rachael's aunt. Still confused? Leave a note and I'll try to clear it up for you.) Missions start to come in that force them to work together, and force her to admit he's doing what he can to make up for the destruction he's caused. At first, Rachael refuses to acknowledge the attraction she feels, but he, being the annoying godling he is, seems unable to take no (or a stiff right hook) for an answer. Contains adult language, themes, and (eventually) some sexual content (smut).
The Black Knight and the Rose by LadyAngelEnglish
18 parts Complete Mature
A.D. 1386. Innocent of Lady Marguerite de Thibouville's accusation of the hideous crime of rape, French knight Jacques Le Gris doesn't want to face her angry husband Jean De Carrouges in a trial by combat, a duel that should determine, by God's judgement, who's telling the truth. Jean has been his best friend, Jacques owes him his life and vice versa more times that he cares to count, and has even been his eldest son's godfather. For all these reasons, Jacques doesn't want to kill Jean to prove his innocence, which would also mean that Marguerite would burn on the stake because convicted of perjury. Despite her lies, Jacques doesn't want to be responsible of her death. Of course, there's the chance that Jean kills Jacques, and he's not willing to die because of a false accusation. Jacques' only option is therefore to go on the run, even if this means being considered a coward and guilty anyway. As King Charles VI of France had been very reluctant to allow the judicial duel, Jacques thinks that, perhaps, if he takes the flight leaving behind a note explaining his reasons, the sovereign will understand and possibly agree with his act, if not pardon it. Taking all of his money and easily transportable values, Jacques secretly leaves France and moves to the Republic of Venice, where he plans to offer his services to an old acquaintance of his, Count Galeotto Malatesta of Valdastico...

*The story has been edited and revised* Bucky Barnes had finally ran away from HYDRA, but he was in hiding. He was too worried, and a bit scared, to go to his childhood friend, Steve Rogers, so he tried to hide from the blonde as well. Bucky had jumped from place to place for a while, running into HYDRA agents every few months. He was tired of running, and he hoped soon he'd be able to find a place to stay; a place to have somewhat of a home and to finally start remembering who he was and what happened in his life. After a year of being on the run, Bucky decided to hideout in a small town in Ireland. The town had a semi-small population, and the people seemed to mind their own business. He found himself a cheap apartment, number 101, and he was easily able to hide from the world while in the small living area. *************** In apartment 102, lived a woman by the name of Harlow Simpson. Harlow was a sweet girl who moved to Ireland years ago with her brother Wade. Wade had run away from home because he had accidentally had a daughter, Jodie, a few years back. Harlow had decided to move with her brother and his new born daughter, so she could help him take care of her. When Jodie was two, Wade decided to join an underground fight club, but only a year later, he was killed in a scuffle with a man twice his size over a bet. Harlow was given full custody of Jodie, and she and the small child moved to the apartment to get away from all of the sad memories of Wade. Three years later, Harlow and Jodie were surprised to see a man moving into the small apartment next to theirs. The apartment was very small, and from what Harlow seen, the man really didn't have much to move in. Each day, Harlow and Jodie would watch the man leave, only for him to come back with a small bag of fruit. Harlow was determined to help the man, and Jodie was determined to finally make a friend that didn't think she was weird...

The Royal Masquerade (Sebastian "Bash" De Poitier x OC) by Violetmimie
12 parts Complete Mature
What if you used AI to create your ideas into a story??? You get the following. **Disclaimer, I do not own Reign and the majority of this story was created with Chat GPT, I only adjusted certain parts that the Ai got wrong** Set in a world of opulence, danger, and romance, *The Royal Masquerade* is the story of Violet Castillo, the hidden Princess of Spain. Sent to the French court under the guise of nobility to protect her identity from those who seek to usurp her throne, Violet becomes entangled in the lives of Queen Mary of Scots and her ladies-in-waiting-Greer, Lola, Kenna, and Aylee. While navigating the intricate web of court politics, Violet catches the eye of Sebastian "Bash" de Poitiers, the illegitimate son of King Henry of France. Despite their vastly different worlds, a deep connection blossoms between them, even as they face challenges from scheming nobles, jealous rivals, and the ever-watchful Queen Mother, Catherine de Medici. When Violet's secret is exposed, she must flee the French court with Bash by her side. Together, they embark on a perilous journey to Spain, where Violet must reclaim her throne and prove herself as a leader. Along the way, their love is tested by treachery, war, and sacrifice, but it is ultimately their bond that carries them through. In a climactic battle, Violet confronts her enemies and secures her rightful place as Princess of Spain. With Bash at her side, she ushers in an era of unity and prosperity for her kingdom, proving that love and courage can conquer even the most insurmountable odds. **All 11 chapters are scheduled for publishing so I am marking the story as completed. Final chapter will be posted on December 11, 2024. Thank you for reading**
