A beautiful young woman, Aphra Devereaux leaves Paris after the death of her father to live in the mansion that was her deceased sister, Lady Freya Fitzroy’s home. She finds the once grand Stoneleigh is now a gloomy, decaying mansion. Additionally her sister’s husband Sir Roland is now a deranged drug addict. To her surprise she finds her sister’s neglected child of whose existence she was unaware. Also a woman of dubious character appears to be managing Roland’s life. The only hope she has is Roland’s brother Edmund but he is away fighting in the Crimea. The society background of her young life has not conditioned her for what she experiences at Stoneleigh or the filth and lowlife of the London streets and the hypocritical upper class London Society.
A dark, gothic tale of disillusionment, tragedy, loss, rape, lunacy, child abuse, and frustrated love set in Victorian England

Arabella| H.S.
What saved her, drowned him. Arabella is a successful model and actress with co-ownership of her company, Dior, with her best friend. She is also something far more deadly than just a little girl. One night, just one night is all it took to change her life and have it come falling apart. Whereas Harry is far from put together. He's lost it all and hidden underneath jewels, money and lies are secrets bigger than the both of them, waiting to be set free. To fight or to fall? That is indeed the question. *** "Keep a gun on you at all times." I grip her shoulders so tight I think they'll break while worry emanates from her face. "Just try not to die, Sir." She plants a kiss on my forehead. "No promises, remember?" *** "I defy you, stars." - William Shakespeare My first dark Harry fanfic also...

Moonshine
𝐓𝐡𝐢𝐫𝐝 𝐁𝐨𝐨𝐤 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 '𝐀𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞' 𝐒𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬 'I love you. I'll find you. I love you.' The lengths one can go for love. The sacrifices one can make for love. The tortures one can endure for love. Marriage takes effort, and no one will find out just how much effort it takes like Sanya Pevensie will. Quests and transformations and mortality, and struggles painful enough that the Sanya who had been a Princess could never have imagined. Grief drives even the most wise of people to rashness, and no one understands that more than Edmund Pevensie does. Brash brothers, compatriots that were once enemies, and a Narnia that the Edmund of the Golden Age would not have recognised. But marriage and grief are not the forté for all. Susan prefers solemnity, and brooding in silence. Lucy thinks listening is all she can do, in her little body. Peter must protect his land, damned be the pretty dark eyes of the Prince who had stolen his home. And how easy humans are to manipulate? No one knows that better than the Faerie Queen. - 𝗪𝗔𝗥𝗡𝗜𝗡𝗚𝗦: Dark themes, violence, strong language, nonconsensual voyeurism, self-harm, attempted suicide, sexual scenes, mental and physical torture, use of f-slur, unintentional animal abuse, dubious sexual consent, reflection on past trauma, memory of attempted rape and assault, murder. . . . . . #3 in #narniaau (27/06/2022) #7 in #medievalfantasy (27/06/2022) #90 in #faeries (8/8/2022) •••• The Alliance Series, as found on @EdsGryff: 'Alliance' 'The Heirs' 'Moonshine' 'Fairytale?' ••••Concluida

In this case Crystal Devereaux is cursed to be caught in between this turmoil. Will she live long enough to be happy with her mate? Or are happy endings overrated? (First book of my series. Contains Mature Content in most chapters just to warn you. Please enjoy)Concluida

Alayna Bordreaux was a testament to one of the bloodiest revolutions of all time- the French Revolution. She watches in horror as the acclaimed mistress of death steals everyone she loves- the guillotine. Finally, toting one more burden in the form of a secret to peaceful, haven-like England, Alayna is taken in by a dying, kindly old man, thinking she will live her life as his nurse. But she is wrong. Alexander Pembroke is a man of many dark sins, and after his father passes away, he finds that many vexing responsibilities fall into his lap- one in particular, a meek but lovely young woman who seems to attract danger- as well as himself. Will they find love, or is it fate that finds them first?Concluida
