Lioness
Evony Orléans, daughter of King Louis-Philippe d'Orléans, is not an ordinary girl. Being a princess can do that to a person. Unfortunately, being royalty isn't all fun and games, a hard truth that seems to keep punching her in the face. This is especially true with 10 siblings and a group of students starting a rebellion in the streets of France. Things get a lot worse when said rebellion's dashing leader catches her eyes, but what's a princess to do when in love with a rebel? Simple: Lead a double life. Sadly, double lives aren't all they're cracked to be, as she soon discovers, and not easy either. Will she be able to love Enjolras and keep up a facade, or will she have to return to royal life? Will love win out or will the crown fall? Whatever she chooses, it will take incredible strength and courage, and between possible execution for treason, deadly barricades, and a couple assassins, she will have to be a lioness to come out of this alive. Disclaimer: Set with Les Misérables by Victor Hugo as a heavy influence. I only have created Evony Orléans and various unnamed characters. All other characters were real people and I have created my own impressions of them.Complete
